TOPICS & TIMESTAMPS:
0:00 please subscribe to a new NBA Up-close channel! https://www.youtube.com/@NBAUpClose
6:00 (approx) tipoff
39:00 some thoughts on the Draft
50:00 some thoughts on Max Strus and contract status (applies to Gabe Vincent), then also in the context of Austin Reaves' RFA status
1:15:00 during late halftime our participant Jasmine (law degree) says she will read the 600-page CBA!
1:25:00 on Ant Edwards leaving Klutch for Alex Rodriguez at WME!
1:29:00 Jokic take foul on Bam? Dean wants a shot clock on the refs
1:59:00 Dean: "There will be radioactive cockroaches and the Heat will still be playing basketball"
2:36:30 on GSW obtaining K.Love: "Problems with getting K.Love: 1) if the Heat win, then isn't he more likely to run it back? 2) if the Heat win, isn't he more likely to try and get paid somewhere?"
2:38:00 my plea to Brandon Katz to think positive thoughts instead of negative (he got banned again for throwing JK and Moody under the bus)
2:40:00 on the Warriors coming back from 10+ points in 2022 (Heat in 2023)
2:48:00 LetsGoWarriors swag links (free for anybody!) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19hF5RM6wjaV-UKHFZjpLVReCrGnYkyG7?usp=drive_link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1T02gitD8B5r_hmaQwkJdObqO8gIjMznL?usp=drive_link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1GoUFEMVOBXsMXmRYVflBjDHEc8806x7s?usp=drive_link
2:49:00 Dean thinks the Nuggets should watch the Shining because Mazzulla had the Celtics watch The Town and they won 3 straight
2:55:30 on Klay and Dray wanting to retire as Warriors alongside Steph and trumping everything you're hearing on Twitter lol
2:58:00 on Donte DiVincenzo, Keith Smith wrote the other day that MIN could use their NTMLE, Dean is optimistic that Donte can stay on a contender and try for an Early Bird staying with GSW for 2 years (whatever's greater than 105% of avg player salary or 175% of the last salary, therefore $8M+)
3:01:00 latest on Festus Ezeli: ABC postgame for Game 1 was a one-off and he's moving to LA for the summer meaning NBC Sports Bay Area has not yet decided on retaining him
3:04:30 Derek White (all-Defense though) is making $18-19M, so maybe Donte would be worth $13M, so that's what he'd be looking at ($8M to stay with a champ contender)
3:09:00 as long as you have Steph on the team you don't worry about the apron
3:12:00 on the distant future when Dray retires, Kuminga becoming a big salary as a good thing, turning talent into larger salaries, maybe Kerr has been looking at 2026-27 Kuminga as a $40-million man this whole time
3:22:00 we think Kuminga has it in him, his exit interview said he was gonna rebound like Looney, was super-calm on the podium, Dean says it felt genuine, we are hungry again
3:26:00 next Warriors game: July 3rd (and 5th) California Classic in Sacramento
3:30:30 Dean names off NBA champions BACKWARDS as of 1979, because he already did 1980-2022 last livestream
