David SamsonGUEST
So now we're getting to something.
David SamsonGUEST
Now we're getting to something, because can we prove, can a grand jury actually hear evidence that Mickey Arison was a victim of the salary cap circumvention? Because Mickey Arison couldn't sign Kawhi Leonard because he wasn't willing to break the rules.
David SamsonGUEST
So Mickey Arison would sand- would stand on the press conference, on the dais, and say, "Here I am, the victim." Is that compelling for a grand jury or than a regular jury? My answer's probably not.
David SamsonGUEST
What about fans? Man, I'm a fan of the Lakers, and I am a victim here because we couldn't sign Kawhi Leonard, and it would've been great to have him.
David SamsonGUEST
I don't love that theory either, Dan.
David SamsonGUEST
The theory that I love is the victims here are the shareholders of the public companies, Daktronics, Boingo Wireless, who were engaged with Steve Ballmer in salary cap circumvention in a way that was not properly disclosed to any of the shareholders or to anybody within Steve Ballmer's circle, the league.

David SamsonGUEST
And it has caused a huge disparity now in teams, payrolls, competitive balance, and all the other issues that are being argued about in baseball currently.
Dan Le BatardHOST
This is a good story here that's gonna make you guys laugh.
Dan Le BatardHOST
I wanted to get back to this story from Front Office Sports because I don't want people to miss the way that these rich people are bleeping with you.
Dan Le BatardHOST
Uh, we're gonna laugh today about, oh look, Kawhi Leonard, he got off and he got an extension in Toronto.
Dan Le BatardHOST
He paid $700,000 to get an extension with Toronto.
Dan Le BatardHOST
What did Mark Walter do? Oh look, he got the Lakers for 10 million and then sold them for 12 billion with money that doesn't appear to be real or his.
Zach LoweHOST
It's mid-September.
Zach LoweHOST
There's nothing going on in the NBA now that the Clippers thing is done and Kawhi maybe is about to get an extension in Toronto.
Zach LoweHOST
Chris Ryan is here and making his Zach Lowes Show/Lowes post debut.
Zach LoweHOST
Joe House.
16 MINS LATER
Zach LoweHOST
It's revenge for the Ray Allen shot and the all-time gut punch series finals loss probably in maybe in NBA history in 2013.
Zach LoweHOST
Uh, it's this kind of like championship swan song for Tim Duncan at that level.
Zach LoweHOST
Kawhi, finals MVP.
Zach LoweHOST
No player on their team.
J.E. SkeetsHOST
Well, the only other story talked more about this offseason than Jalen Duren and his contract negotiations was the Clippers and the investigation and, of course, the Clippers-Raptors trade.
J.E. SkeetsHOST
And you said it's official now, Kawhi Leonard-
Kofie YeboahGUEST
Yeah
J.E. SkeetsHOST
... headed to the Raps.
Trey KirbyHOST
You know, $30 million is probably the same as $700,000-
J.E. SkeetsHOST
Yeah
Trey KirbyHOST
... for Kawhi Leonard.
Kofie YeboahGUEST
Yeah.
JakeADVERTISER
Availability and eligibility vary by state.
Matt MooreHOST
Kawhi Leonard's gonna get more money, this time above the table.
Matt MooreHOST
What's Hayes's favorite NBA watching memory? And how much do you need an offensive engine? All that's coming up on Locked On NBA Daily.
Matt MooreHOST
[upbeat music]
Matt MooreHOST
We're gonna talk a little bit about engines versus role players, 'cause I can't get this idea out of my head of trying to parse out the difference between a, an elite role player and a pretty good primary ball handler engine.
Matt MooreHOST
I want Hayes's thoughts on that.
Matt MooreHOST
But we'll start, Hayes, with news from Jeff, uh, from Fisher, Jake Fisher, uh, that Kawhi Leonard and the Raptors are discussing a new extension.
Matt MooreHOST
It's gonna be probably two years and 130 million, I believe, is what it's, like, shaping up to be.
Jamie LynchHOST
This guy is never healthy.
Corey SeidmanHOST
Is he, like, would you say he's like Kawhi Leonard of baseball? [laughs]
Jamie LynchHOST
Yeah, kind of.
Jamie LynchHOST
Yeah, pretty much.
Tim WoodsonHOST
[audio glitching] Falls that up with, uh, Steph Curry at 44.
Tim WoodsonHOST
Kawhi Leonard goes after that.
Tim WoodsonHOST
That's a great pick for, that's a great spot for Kawhi.
Tim WoodsonHOST
Paul George at 46.
Ben DuBoseHOST
Is he back to the guy he was the first three years in Houston? Because if you combine, you know, that player with better health, With contractual stability, with the improvements he's made in some areas with fundamentals over the years, maybe he gets a Chip Englund bump as well.
Ben DuBoseHOST
We know what Chip Englund did with Kawhi and on paper.
Ben DuBoseHOST
Not saying Tari is like Kawhi, but I think Tari, at least in terms of his mechanics and his hands, there are some similarities with how they shoot.
Ben DuBoseHOST
Maybe there's a little bump that can be found there as well.
Ben DuBoseHOST
For me, Tari is a guy where it starts with media day.
Chris DrewHOST
I mean, shit, dude, we're seeing it in the NBA.
Chris DrewHOST
Like, Kawhi Leonard just had this whole thing come down because they circumvented because they used additional fronts from a company for no call, no shows, essentially sponsorship.
Chris DrewHOST
So that's where the other money is, quote unquote, coming from.
Chris DrewHOST
My issue, Zach, is that I don't think there's any real accurate reporting on this because if you read the athletic thing, it said they talked to a bunch of GMs.
Gastor AlmonteHOST
In other news, Clippers earned an appropriate consequence in a Kawhi case, according to Adam Silver.
Gastor AlmonteHOST
NBA commissioner Adam Silver considers the investigation into the L.A. Clippers and Kawhi Leonard closed following a landmark penalty that included suspending owner Steve Ballmer for a year, fining the Clippers $30 million and stripping them of five first round draft picks.
Gastor AlmonteHOST
Is that for
Shalewa SharpeHOST
like five years?
