Bomani: cam newton thinks

He's a high-value man,

Paul george's new nickname is

Protocol p, and albert pujols

Been trying to steal third base

Since thursday.

Run it!

♪ ♪

[Cheers and applause]

♪ ♪

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: thank you!

[Laughs]

It's so weird.

I'm out here being like, there's

Nobody on the tv shot.

I'm waving at noise.

The nba playoffs are here!

Someone's already on

Vacation.

The great thing for me is

I get an opportunity now to be

Around my boys and watch those

Guys through their aau

Tournaments and summer ball.

Bomani: look out, under 17

Aau tournament, lebron's coming

And he's ready to upstage some

Kids!

Bronny's teammates looking at

Him like, "does your dad have,

Like, a job?

He's jumping in their layup

Lines!

Lebron has officially become the

Old man at the club.

But that club is today's nba.

It's like lebron's on

The dance floor at 2:00 a.m.

Asking the youngsters if

They know how one might

"Whip and/or nae nae."

I mean this metaphorically,

But it's also kind of true.

♪ ♪

Dancing like your

Friend's white husband

At a black wedding!

This is what I'm saying:

Lebron james is still an amazing

Basketball player, he's one of

The greatest ever.

But at a certain point,

You got to know when to act

Like you're 37 years old.

You ain't got to leave the club!

Just get off the dance floor and

Let the youngsters have it.

Get you a booth, smoke your

Cigar, and stay in your section!

[Applause]

You diddy now,

You're not nba young boy.

But for the past 10 years,

Everything in basketball media

Has been about lebron.

There's been little room

For newer, younger superstars to

Shine.

Even when the nba has a weekend

Made to specifically celebrate

The best players, it's the

Lebron show.

You can't talk all star

Weekend without talking about

The return of the king,

Lebron james, to the city of

Cleveland.

The kid from akron,

Lebbron james!

You see jordan and lebron

There sharing a pretty cool

Embrace.

Lebron stealing the spotlight

At the end with this

Game-winning shot.

Steph curry, by the way,

Named mvp or most valuable

Player.

Congrats to him.

Bomani: steph won most

Valuable and lebron won most

Talked-about.

I'm sure it's a coincidence that

Nba 75 was in lebron's hometown.

Right?

We were one step away from

The all star logo saying

"Watch "space jam 2"."

I will not.

But now?

The basketball world can

Breathe a sigh of relief.

Because lebron james is not

In the playoffs.

Thank the lord!

[Applause]

[Laughter]

Took them a while to look at the

Screen.

All right.

But listen, generations of

Players have had the spotlight

Skip over them while the

League's been focused solely

On lebron.

I'm not just talking about

The new blood,

The fresh-faced dudes --

Ja, ant man, lamelo --

Lebron's media circus has also

Overshadowed guys in their

Primes.

I'm talking about some

Mvp-caliber players who have

Been around for a while!

Jokic, giannis, jimmy butler.

D-book, and tatum all playing

Their 20-something asses off and

All we've been hearing about is

Lebron's incredible body.

Lebron's gonna take care of

His body.

You know, he spends "a million

Dollars" or whatever it is.

Lebron famously spends

A million dollars a year

On his body.

Yes, he spends a

Million bucks on his body.

Well over a million...

Over a million and half.

Lebron spends two million on

His body.

Yeah, lebron, a lot of money,

An enormous...

I don't know if he spends more

Than anybody else.

A lot of people don't mention

How much they spend.

Bomani: that man is so

Obsessed with his body, there is

A 99% chance he is going to be

Buried in a hyperbaric casket,

Just in case jesus want to play

One on one by the pearly gates.

Lebron, there's no denying that

You still got moves, people are

Sick of having to talk about a

Sorry team just because you're

The one on it.

We tend to give the lakers

The benefit of the doubt to

Lebron and to the lakers.

Can they still do something?

Possibly.

And I want to say that.

And that's a tough thing coming

Out of my mouth because I firmly

Believe the lakers are trash.

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: stephen a. Has

The energy of a pissed off

Movie critic.

You make a man watch too much

Trash, he gonna snap!

So, lebron, I got to ask you,

Why are you at the club pushing

The youths out the way?

Know your age, man.

Tom brady's still playing

Incredible football, but he also

Admits he's old as dirt.

Brady carries himself as an

Elder statesman.

And look what happened.

Young quarterbacks around

Him are growing in stature:

Mahomes, allen, burrow,

Lamar jackson.

Brady was even willing to

Step away from the game!

Tom brady, this was a done

Deal, folks.

He was going to take and accept

A front office job with the

Miami dolphins.

Bomani: yeah, that deal was a

Lock until the dolphins got

Sued.

That damn brian flores, the

Only thing that could stop tom

Brady.

Other than gluten.

In golf, tiger woods is getting

Older.

Even before the latest accident,

He had been focusing on family

And not playing as much.

As I alluded to in

A number of press conferences,

I won't be playing a full

Schedule ever again.

And so, it'll just be the big

Events.

Bomani: that's making room

For young players like

Scott scheffler.

It is now abundantly clear

There's a new top dog in the

World of golf.

Scottie scheffler soared past

The rest of the field to claim

The 2022 masters title with a

Score of 10 under par.

Bomani: just like that!

New top dog in the golf world.

In one weekend.

The lesson the nba -- and lebron

-- Can learn this postseason is

That the sport isn't about one

Guy anymore, the same way we

Aren't surprised when a european

Dude knows how to crossover.

It's time to embrace the nba as

It is, not as it was.

To enjoy the stories and stars

Right in front of our faces.

Tyrese maxey scores a

Playoff career high 38 points.

It was not steph curry or

Klay thompson who led the

Warriors to a victory, it was

Jordan poole.

Two of the nba's top scoring

Offenses and youngest teams,

The timberwolves meeting

Memphis.

Ja, he was good.

32 Points, but anthony

Edwards was even better: 36.

This is fun, man.

Basketball is fun.

Bomani: the only thing these

Dudes can't do is rent a car.

Shine the spotlight on that.

We're so obsessed with

"Greatest of all time,"

That we're ignoring who's

Greatest right now!

And if we make that mistake?

We're going to look as corny as

This.

[Cheers and applause]

In other nba playoff news,

Saturday's

Grizzlies-timberwolves

Game had an unusual

Court-stormer.

Talk about a strange protest.

A woman chained herself to

A basket as a form of an

Animal rights protest.

Oh, wow.

Of the minnesota owner.

This was in memphis, though, and

The poor memphis workers had to

Carry her off.

Bomani: how did she

Get a chain in the arena?

If that ain't some white

Privilege.

If I tried rolling into

Msg with a length of chain,

They'd throw me out like

Charles oakley.

But chain-lady wasn't actually

The first protester of the

Postseason!

At tuesday's play-in game,

Someone from the same group

Tried this.

Some lady tried to glue

Herself to the floor.

What?

It was a protest of some

Sort, I'm assuming?

Allie?

I think that's a fair

Assumption.

I'll get some clarity on the

Purpose of it or maybe we don't

Talk about it again depending on

What the answer is.

Bomani: yeah.

She tried to glue herself to

The empty end of the court

During a free throw, in protest

Of timberwolves owner

Glen taylor's practices on his

Chicken farms.

Some people could not even

Believe their eyes.

I saw it.

I thought she fell out.

I didn't know what happened to

Her.

What do you mean, glue herself?

It was a protest.

She glued her hand.

She tried to glue her hand to

The floor.

Ah, no.

Bomani: ay, man.

Ty lue wasn't messing up

His money.

He didn't even want to know what

Was going on.

Not trying to mess up his good

Job 'cause sticky fingers wanted

To make a point?

Hell naw.

As for the protestor herself --

You shoulda called someone for

Advice about adhesives!

This lady.

She'd have you atomically bonded

To that court.

And you just glued one hand?

That's it?

You thought you'd glue one palm

To the court and nba security

Wouldn't yank your a*s up and

Make the towel-boy scrape up

Lil bits of pinkie?

Do not trespass in an athlete's

Workplace.

Hard and fast rule.

Because if you do,

Law enforcement is gonna

Come for you.

And this might not be on brand,

But I'll be rooting for them.

Hall of fame player, three-time

Olympic gold medalist, and coach

Of the current ncaa women's

Basketball champions,

South carolina gamecocks.

And I know you know who she is

Because I saw the ratings.

Everybody watched that game.

We got champagne on ice 'cause

We're still celebrating

Here at "game theory."

Everybody, let's welcome

Coach dawn staley.

[Cheers and applause]

♪ ♪

You got 'em on their feet!

That is your second national

Championship.

But a big thing about this story

Was the ratings.

Highest-rated game for espn

Since 2008.

And that means they all got to

See you beat geno auriemma in

Front of everybody.

[Laughter]

[Cheers and applause]

Like, even -- just on the

Strength of the stature of the

Uconn program,

For you to win against them on

That stage against them,

How big was that for you?

Huge.

We actually won it in 2017.

Because we didn't play uconn,

Everybody validated it.

Sometimes, in 2017, god moves

Mountains so you can win.

This time, they put the mountain

In front of you to climb, that

Was uconn.

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: I mean, I would make

The argument that if you were to

Ask me, who coached the premier

Women's basketball team in the

Women's basketball team in the

Country, it would be the

One in all the louis, and you

Are stunting on us again.

I saw those shoes.

Then I saw the shirt was like,

You showed up to the national

Championship game in the louis

Jacket and people still can't

Buy because they saw you in it

And they wanted.

I got some people in some

High places at louis.

It's cool.

I like to dress comfortably.

You feel good, you play good,

You look good, and the more you

Can recruit not just worrying

About what you wear, the better

For our program.

Bomani: I just want everyone

To have heard that flex where I

Asked about the louis jacket,

Like, "I like to dress

Comfortable."

That is the excuse I use to wear

Sweatpants every day.

That's yours breaking out the

Jacket on the biggest stage.

I didn't know is going to get

As much publicity as it did.

The south carolina fans -- I say

Fans, these are the people who

Don't really follow our program,

We call them fams,

Like family members,

They like to wear our school

Colors like garnet and black.

Every game.

I felt like for this particular

Game, the national championship

Game, I wanted to stunt on them

A little bit.

Bomani: just a tiny bit.

Just a tiny bit.

[Laughs]

Now I want to ask you this.

Eight we had gone around that

Seem to lead you wow be

Legitimate, that said that you

Had agreed to become the men's

Basketball coach at kansas state

University.

What did you think when you had

Heard or saw that?

I actually saw that tweet,

Strangely, I looked at it,

It was like, I started to use my

Thumbs to just correct them.

Then I was like, what the hell,

Let them go with it.

Let's see what comes about it.

The strangest thing is, because

I thought it was frank martin

Who used to coach at

Kansas state, and he was in the

Process of actually looking for

Another job, so I thought that

They got the names mixed up.

But I could have corrected them,

But I said, no, I'm not going to

Let this be a distraction in us

Winning or our quest to win a

National championship.

Bomani: well, what do you

Think about the idea of coaching

Men?

It seems like people view that

For women and basketball as a

Promotion on gp.

I feel like basketball is

Basketball.

I do.

[Applause]

A lot of times, people don't

Realize, everybody can be a

X and o, like, genius.

Like, it is nothing.

You can study that.

You can't study people and the

Relationships that you need to

Forge for people to be great.

Athletes want to be -- they're

Confident people, and it's a

Fine line, because that

Confidence can be shaken with

One word, one criticism, or

It can be switched with some

Positivity.

I like to be more direct.

I grew up in a household of

Three brothers and one sister,

So I was used to having

Testosterone all around our

Household.

So I feel like, if guys can --

If you can help them, you know,

So be it.

It doesn't have to come from

Another man.

It can come from a woman.

[Applause]

I do think my credentials will

Allow me to get in the

Locker room and be respected in

That way.

And also, I just feel like the

Relationships I that build with

My players comes from a place of

Love and respect and people can

Feel that and respond to it and

React to it and be great in

Their craft.

Bomani: I can say this

Because your credentials

Also get you a better job at

Kansas state.

[Applause]

[Laughter]

All right.

You won two national

Championships.

We can go up and down the list.

Do any of those things top that

One time that you was on

"Martin," in terms of the levels

Of accomplishment?

I will tell you this, more

People know me for appearing on

The "martin" show than all of my

Basketball career and all of the

Coaching career.

I had the absolute best time of

My life appearing on that show.

One because I didn't know what

It all entails.

We got there a couple of days

Before the show started.

The next day, we just read our

Parts.

We sat around the table and read

Our parts.

And that was it.

Like, you know, pam, gina,

Martin, tommy, and they don't

Like to be called their stage

Names.

But that is all we know them as.

Pam, I wanted to say pam a lot.

Whatever, pam, no, they want you

To call them -- it was one of

The most gratifying, to know

Martin.

I will go to a martin show,

A comedy show, and we will see

Each other in the back and he's

Like, "dawn mfing staley,

Congratulations."

Like, martin, we still know each

Other, which is cool.

Bomani: dawn staley,

Thanks so much for joining

Us.

I greatly appreciate it.

Thank you.

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: right here, I got

Real questions that have been

Asked in real job interviews.

Think about what the job is.

All right.

Do you on a tractor?

That's going to be know for

Me personally.

Bomani: do you buy your

Mother a tractor?

I'm just saying, this is really

Happening in a job.

So what job do you think it is?

Dave & buster's.

Bomani: when did you lose

Your virginity?

Youth pastor.

Bomani: you are on a

Mountain in alaska on a bus

Going 100 miles an hour.

Where are you sitting on the

Bus?

I would be sitting in the

Front I guess, I can see the

Inevitable death.

Bomani: I don't know how

They do that in alaska, they

Might put us in the back.

All these questions.

Do they feel degrading?

Yes.

Bomani: we are talking

About the nfl draft on the show.

These are actual questions that

Nfl gms have asked college

Prospects in advance of the nfl

Draft.

Oh, my god.

Bomani: yes.

Why?

Bomani: good question.

Why do you need to ask some

Of those questions to young

People?

They are in college.

They are not trying to think

About the miles being high

Praise.

When I don't think all people

Are trying to answer those

Questions now that you bring

Them up.

These are ask all questions that

Prospects are asked before the

Nfl draft.

That looks like some rich

Dude got in office, I got to

Hire these players, so what the

f*ck am I going to do?

How do I make them feel like I

Still own them, came up with

That sh*t.

Well, maybe you know what, maybe

Because they want to check their

Temperament.

Bomani: yeah, that's the

Excuse they use.

I think it's the first answer.

I was right the first time.

[Laughter]

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: all right.

We are 11 days from

The 87th edition of the nfl

Draft.

Now seems like a great time to

Change things up a little.

Nothing should stay the same

For 87 years, except for maybe

Mcdonald's hashbrowns.

Them shits is good.

The draft?

Trash.

So I have a proposal:

Abolish the nfl draft.

[Cheers and applause]

Yeah.

End all them mock drafts.

Scrap the "w*r rooms."

Get rid of the combine.

Stop the wonderlics.

I'm sick of hearing

"The browns are on the clock."

The browns been on

The clock my whole life.

They should change they

Name to "the clevelands on

The clocks."

Dump the unnecessary tyler perry

"Black trauma" sob stories.

Sat as a broke dog.

I hate them!

And cancel the hugs.

Especially the hugs!

Now has bragging rights.

[Laughter]

Loves to get down.

Roger, no offense, you're

Feeling that tomorrow.

Bomani: hey, man, I said

Abolish the draft, not maul the

Commissioner.

That's a different episode.

You know what that intricate dap

Hides?

The fact that those players

Are probably making less money

Than they should.

Owners might as well be hugging

A tv they got for half price on

Black friday.

But, yeah, the nfl draft is an

Annual three-day extravaganza of

Billionaires saving money on the

Help.

It is televised wage

Suppression, with commercial

Breaks and a jingle.

[Espn draft alert chimes]

And with the number 7 pick,

We're gonna exploit a running

Back from georgia.

Don't vote for him, though.

In no other realm but sports

Would people tolerate anything

Like a "draft" setting the basic

Terms of employment.

And we hardly ever stop to think

About it!

That happens a lot.

Shitty things get normalized if

They hang around long enough.

Like the ncaa.

Or drug testing.

Or sugar on grits.

[Applause]

And that gets applause.

But imagine if regular-a*s jobs

Were like this.

Imagine leaving college and

Having no say in where you work

Or whom you work for -- at least

Not for three to four years.

Actually, I can think of one

Group of guys who didn't have to

Imagine it.

You think about it: can't

Control where you work.

Can't ask for more money.

And now a bunch of narcs in

Suits are going on tv talking

sh*t about you, a college kid,

Because you got caught smoking

Weed out of a gas mask.

In football, the facemask

Penalty is 15 yards, but when a

Player fills his mask with a

Cloud of marijuana smoke, the

Penalty is much greater.

Laremy tunsil was selected

13Th last night by

The miami dolphins.

Tunsil started falling in the

Draft after a video posted to

His twitter account showed

Someone smoking a substance out

Of a bong-type gas mask.

That drop right there

Because of that video cost him

About $8 million in salary over

The next four years.

Bomani: they make a gas mask

With a bong on it?

Mine doesn't have a bong!

I know, at some point these

Players reach free agency.

And that's when the big bucks

Start rolling in.

But keep in mind, we're

Talking about football players.

Most of these dudes will be club

Security before they have a

Chance to test free agency.

The promise of the big payday is

Like that scheme they pull on

Those ladies selling mary kay.

You ain't never gettin' no

Pink cadillac, miss betty, stop

Letting them lie to you!

The nfl flat out treats players

Like animals.

I was in the nfl combine and

You know what it feels like?

It feels like you're in a cattle

Auction.

You have this random number

Slapped on you.

You are paraded around in your

Underwear and scouts are

Standing there with clipboards

Sizing you up.

There is not another job

Interview anywhere on earth like

The nfl combine.

Bomani: wasn't that the same

Interview process in

"Magic mike?"

Look, even nfl executives know

What's up.

Sort of.

George young, the former

General manager of the giants,

Once referred to the college

Senior bowl weigh-in as a

"Livestock show...

Dehumanizing, but necessary."

Only thing that's "dehumanizing

But necessary" is the middle

Seat on a full flight.

One of these armrests is mine,

Goddammit.

And I will cut you.

[Applause]

Of course, this is starting to

Evoke another sort of chattel.

Former nfl quarterback

Colin kaepernick's new netflix

Special igniting debate on

Social media after it compared

The nfl's drafting process and

Its workout performance review,

Called the combine, to sl*very.

Their muscles are measured,

Their strength is calculated.

This is a very invasive

Process for the black body to go

Determine what the potential for

Profit is.

Bomani: see, this is what

Happens when you have

Colin kaepernick

Making films instead of watching

Film.

That's what you get.

Now nothing brings out

The lemon booty from certain

Kinds of white folks like a

Comparison between pro sports

And the sl*ve trade.

They hate that sh*t.

Not the sl*very.

Just being reminded that it

Happened.

You can kind of see their point,

Too.

The methods of the draft process

Sound like you're playing a game

Of taboo.

Here are the clues: exploiting

Mostly black manual laborers by

Wage suppression,

The restriction of movement,

Choice, and expression.

Then the person on your team

Screams...

Ooh, ooh, the history of

Racial capitalism in america!

Bomani: oh, damn, almost.

The correct answer is

The nfl draft.

[Applause]

Oh, yeah.

I ain't letting this $9,000

Suit stop me from talking that

Talk.

But maybe you didn't pick up on

Any of those "amistad" vibes in

The draft coverage.

Probably because you were

Too distracted by all that

"Expert analysis."

There's big guys, there's

Strong guys, there's long guys,

There's fast guys.

Guys that are fast.

Guys that are expl*sive.

Big body guys who are

Supersize.

Guys who have good feet.

Guys that can do a little bit

Of anything and everything.

Guys that can ball now.

They can all ball.

Let's get into some of the

Guys we have not talked to yet.

Guys that are nasty and

Play hard.

Exactly.

This guy looks like a raven.

He's tough like a raven.

Like he's got a bird face?

Well, not like a bird

Face.

More like a football player

That the ravens would draft.

Oh, figuratively.

Bomani: damn, they named all

The guys.

Five guys, guy torry,

Teddy riley, and guy,

Ay, this f*cking guy,

People justify the draft by

Saying we need it for the sake

Of competitive balance.

Yeah, like pursuing fairness for

One group justifies taking it

Away from another.

Here's how nfl films put it.

The draft wouldn't exist had

It not been invented by eagles

Owner bert bell back in 1936.

He expressed it

In a way that the strongest had

To go to the bottom of the

List and the weakest at the top.

The first college allocation

Event was staged at the

Ritz-carlton hotel owned by his

Father.

Bomani: his dad owned the

Ritz!

Whew.

Come on, man.

We know what this really was.

A bunch of old coots in an

Honest-to-god smoke-filled room,

Mixing themseves coldies and

Conspiring with one another to

Hold the workers down.

Capitalists have been running

That game since they stopped

Paying people with little bits

Of gold.

One historian ran the numbers

And concluded that the draft had

"No immediate impact" on parity,

And that its main effect was to

Depress player salaries.

Yeah, turns out the draft just

Gave the shitty organizations

A new thing to be bad at.

But it hung around anyway

Because the owners were saving

Money on payroll and keeping a

Tighter leash on the players.

Soon enough the draft became an

Institution.

And soon enough the institution

Became a big old dumb spectacle.

[Espn draft alert chimes]

Now if you want to know why this

Abomination not only persists,

But seems to grow in cultural

Significance year after year,

It's because the league, with

The help of cable television,

Took something that used to be

As boring as morehouse's own

Herman cain's tweets when he was

Alive into something as exciting

As morehouse's own herman cain's

Tweets after he died.

The dallas cowboys selection?

Ed jones, defensive end,

Tennessee state.

Welcome, everybody, to

Nashville, tennessee!

100,000 People.

Taylor swift is here.

Look at taylor!

Whoo!

You wouldn't miss this party.

No, this is amazing.

Bomani: come on, taylor,

Admit it.

You're only there to hear the

Sad life stories

So they can inspire your songs.

So now we have all this

Pageantry for what amounts to a

"People raffle."

This is a problem.

Any attempt to dislodge the

Draft now has to contend with

The fact that fans absolutely

Love it.

It's pre-preseason football!

Abolishing the draft would

Be tantamount to canceling

"Jeopardy!"

We love that show even if now we

Got what's his face as the host.

Oh, yeah, and we got blossom,

Too.

We do have blossom.

[Applause]

But I have a solution.

Stay with me here.

Time after time,

The courts have agreed with the

Players that the draft is an

ill*gal restraint of trade.

And time after time, the draft

Has been kept alive by the

Players in their labor

Agreements with the league,

In exchange for other freedoms

They'd been denied,

Like free drinking water during

Practice.

But let's say the players

Finally decide to bury the draft

For good.

Here's what I envision.

We lose the wage suppression.

But keep the tv show.

Let the rookies enter the

League as full free agents, able

To negotiate with any team.

And then let's make a big dumb

Old spectacle of it.

[Cheers and applause]

Hey, man,

We have the technology to make a

Spectacle out of anything.

The world cup draw could have

Been pulling names out of a hat,

And instead, they turned it
