You're listening to Giraffe Kings Network.
Chris Cody, do me the favor because this news is breaking now and locally it'll be interesting
because on the day after the Miami heats, wheels fall off and the Celtics skyrocket past
them to what looks like a different future unless the Miami Heat makes some
changes. It's being reported now by Anthony Chang of the Miami Herald that
Jimmy Butler's potential extension is going to put the heat because
of what Butler wants in the position of deciding right now whether they want to extend Jimmy
Butler until he's 37 years old for around $58 million a season. And it's going to eat
up a lot of salary cap and you are going to be in the
same position and you might have a situation where everything with Jimmy Butler comes to a head
and they have to find different value for him because they decide that they don't want to give
one of those contracts and that they decide the window has closed and then you make some decisions
about whether you're willing to pay him and those legs until he's 37 when you've
taken so much out of those legs do me the favor and make sure that Amin
addresses this tomorrow because we've lost him for oddball and I want to get
his expertise on this as someone who's a front office person. The interesting
note on this extension is it's so as a two-year 113 million
dollar extension would be the max this would also buy Jimmy out of a player
option so he already has a player option in one of those seasons at 52 million
dollars so all this would do is increase that from 52 to around 58 and get you
one extra year of Jimmy Butler.
Now, we don't know whether.
If you want that.
Right, no, the question would be,
is that one year going to be a productive year?
Is that one year going to be,
hey, we've got all this money and we use him
as a salary filler two years down the line
to go get him for somebody else,
but it's not two extra years of Jimmy.
His player option is already there.
So essentially, you're asking,
do you want to extend the Jimmy and Bam together build for one extra season on top of the contract
here in the house?
The news that's being broken here by Anthony Chang is that the ask is going to be Jimmy
using the leverage of right now get me more, more time, more money, because look at what just happened.
It's the most obvious thing.
The agent is gonna say, when he was healthy nine months ago,
you beat this team, and now look at what happens
when you don't have him.
Look at how important he is.
You need him so that everything else works.
You just saw what happened to Tyler Hero's draft value,
because he's not out there. The news in this is now you're saying do the heat want
Year 37 and 38 of Jimmy or whatever it is at
50-something million a year and Jimmy's people are saying pay us now leverage now money now
All the things that is smart to do in business. I have some advice for Anthony Chang
You know how woge has Woj Bomb?
When Anthony Chang reports something?
Chang Gang.
Chang Bang.
I screwed it up the first time.
Not a great day for me.
They both work.
Chang Bang is good though.
Chang Gang.
You said it so confidently when you said,
you looked at me in the face with such confidence.
You looking at me is what threw me off. I blame you for that. When you said Chang looked at me in the face with such confidence you looking at me is what threw me
I'm glad you said
Chan gang and you felt like you nailed it
And then you heard your own voice when you made eye contact with me and record you registered in my eyes
That doesn't make sense and
Bang
That's a good one. That also doesn't make sense
That's a good one. That also doesn't make sense though.
It's like a, it's a playoff gang bang.
Yep, we got that.
Chang Gang, that's how gang happened.
At least we know why he made the mistake, Dan.
I'm glad he explained it to us.
It's been a day.
The fact that you looked at me with confidence
and that your confidence deteriorated
when you made eye contact with the recognition
of that didn't did make to Dan
Sense to Dan and now he sees me and now what do I do?
The fact that I saw all of that in your eyes
And then you turn around on the back end and explain to me that it's a gangbang joke because you're
Incapable of being subtle when you're falling apart confidence wise
of being subtle when you're falling apart confidence-wise. It's been a rough show.
I learned earlier that my fat belly could be a tumor.
I've been thinking all show.
Roy Collins, is that what it's saying with that?
Is this thing a tumor?
Roy Collins, throughout my childhood,
had the biggest beer belly I've ever seen.
And you'll forgive me for telling that story in a way that had the tumor in the middle
of it instead of the fact that that's the hat that's now fashionable for Tyler Hero.
I ruined that story by throwing a tumor in the middle of it when all I was saying is
don't you guys understand, I don't understand how this can be fashionable when I'm pretty
sure it would be discovered still
today in the dirty garage of Roy Collins tucked inside of something because
that's not the way anyone wears a hat it's rumpled and I don't understand how
that's fashionable when I'm telling you I could find it in a Miramar garage
right now with Roy Collins who has that tumor belly. Is he still with us? He can't be with the size of that tumor.
You really jumped the shark on that, Dan.
Oh, shut up, Jeremy.
That is, see, that is the jump the shark.
What happened?
That was a weird time.
I don't know what happened there.
Show was great today.
What was that, what was that?
A weird time, man.
That was such a good show.
A weird time.
This is a weird time.
