You know what the biggest fear is right now, Tom?
00:00:02.720
If all of a sudden, you know who their superstar of the last two decades is
00:00:09.500
that they're hoping has nothing to do with this?
00:00:41.860
That's LeBron's guy, and he's the CEO of Spring Hill Company.
00:00:45.920
And uninterrupted Clutch Sports, who is co-founded with who?
00:00:54.600
Ask ChadGBT, has Mav Carter had gambling issues in the past before?
00:01:04.700
According to multiple news reports, Mav Carter did admit in November of 2021, this is not a long time ago, okay, that he placed about 20 bets on football and basketball games over the course of a year, ranging $5,000 to $10,000.
00:01:18.040
He said he used the services of a bookie named Wayne Nix, who ran an illegal sports betting rink.
00:01:24.680
Carter told investigators he could not recall placing bets on the Lakers, despite his close business association with team star player.
00:01:38.400
The statement from his side said he cooperated with investigators, was not a target, and has not been contacted again in this matter.
00:01:46.980
Well, the NBA can't afford to lose LeBron James, of course.
00:01:50.340
While Carter admitted to the betting, the available public information does not show that he was found guilty of a crime.
00:01:56.500
But what do you mean you do not recall placing a bet on the Lakers or not?
00:02:08.060
Do you think President Trump has a memory where he remembers everybody who called him out?
00:02:16.160
And do you remember what LeBron called the president once?
00:02:22.500
Constantly talked crap about the administration.
00:02:25.300
And do you think if there's any ties, text exchange, email exchange, of Mav Carter asking,
00:02:34.720
Bron, you're going to play tonight, you're not going to play tonight, this, you think if there's anybody,
00:02:39.700
if you put 10 names of people that know on any given night if LeBron's playing or not,
00:02:50.620
Oh, then you know the number one, maybe number two.
00:02:52.720
So if Mav Carter is number one, and Rich Paul is two, and you gamble, you know what this is like?
00:03:03.540
So Mav Carter is Nancy Pelosi because nobody has more insider information than Mav Carter.
00:03:11.240
Shaq, when he's being interviewed, when they're doing Inside the NBA, he told Barkley, we were told at the beginning of the season,
00:03:17.200
whether you know if anybody is playing or not, if any of your friends and family members ask, always say they're playing.
00:03:23.880
We were briefed on this at the beginning of the season.
00:03:26.180
So if there is an ounce of anything on LeBron, do you think Cash and their FBI will go investigating LeBron?
00:03:42.920
Think about all the black eyes athletes have had.
00:04:10.200
Did he ever make into the Hall of Fame while he was alive?
00:04:16.480
He took a year and a half off and playing him to play baseball.
00:04:27.460
FYI, if this goes that direction, none of those things will come as close to this as possible.
00:04:45.620
Now, if they find anything that LeBron participated in helping his boy Mav, who's a gambler.
00:05:02.880
And when that nothing happened to him, that was what year 2021?
00:05:20.320
Here's what you got to realize, Vinny, about Stephen A.
00:05:36.180
Who tried to make sure LeBron, Stephen A never got a job?
00:05:43.820
Who knows all those additional phone calls that were made behind closed doors?
00:05:49.400
Who was the show after Stephen A and drops the bomb on Stephen A and talks shit about him?
00:05:56.520
You don't think deep down inside Stephen A is kind of rooting for Trump?
00:06:13.240
But let me tell you, you know who is the one guy that I guarantee knows 90% of stuff, 95% of stuff that's going on here is Stephen A.
00:06:30.120
And by the way, Stephen A is going to watch this.
00:06:36.660
You're going to, we're going to have the conversation.
00:06:40.700
Meaning, I think in this area, if there's anybody in the NBA who are commentators, who knows the true character of LeBron, it's one guy.
00:06:55.560
I think there's an element of if there's a guy that they go after that is immediate ties to LeBron is Mav Carter.
00:07:06.120
If they get Mav Carter, guilty by association, they get LeBron.
00:07:10.020
If this happens, they keep LeBron out of Hall of Fame.
00:07:15.360
By the way, do you know in the history of the NBA who has been kept out of the Hall of Fame?
00:07:33.180
Like, you don't think they're, you know, putting stuff in their body?
00:07:37.460
There's never been a single person in the history of the NBA that's been banned from the Hall of Fame and LeBron could be the first.
00:07:46.840
And let me tell you why I'm not rooting for this.
00:07:51.320
He says, I don't know what I would do without my wife.
00:07:55.640
But the way he went after Trump, calling him a bum and constantly mocking him as the face of the league.
00:08:08.920
And nobody watches it anymore like they used to.
00:08:18.120
If I'm a consultant to Adam Silver or anybody else, I would be saying, do whatever you can for this guy to retire.
00:08:28.920
Unless if the new face of the league is going to say some bullshit, like he said as well.
00:08:33.700
But Mav Carter, if there's any ties to him gambling, someone's about to go like this.
00:08:45.380
If Mav gets ā and by the way, that would be one of the biggest days, kind of like the day when Giuliani got the 240 mobsters that were all walking out with handcuffs.
00:09:29.740
You know, we thought that organized crime was gone.
00:09:33.280
But here they are right in front of our face in the NBA gambling phenomenon that has swept the nation here.
00:09:41.660
Ironically enough, we would try to compare Jordan to LeBron.
00:09:44.740
The one thing we've never said about LeBron is that he gambles.
00:09:48.560
And now, one thing you could say about Jordan, you know, whether it was his gambling off the court,
00:09:54.560
whether it was the Vegas stuff, whether it was the golfing, you know,
00:09:57.600
in the famous last dance thing, they were throwing the money and then the dude that went like this,
00:10:07.600
Michael Jordan, after he retired, and obviously the Jordan brand,
00:10:10.840
he ended up buying, I think, the Charlotte Hornets for X amount of hundreds of millions of dollars,
00:10:16.440
ended up selling it, 10X-ing it, I think, for a couple billion dollars.
00:10:20.400
The whole thing with LeBron, his legacy is cemented.
00:10:24.000
We know that he's arguably the second greatest player of all time.
00:10:31.300
And ideally, it's going to be in what city, PPD?
00:10:38.900
And this might be the one roadblock that he's going to have to deal with.
00:10:43.840
Now, in my opinion, Maverick Carter has not been guilty of anything whatsoever.
00:10:49.220
But has Maverick Carter had a history of gambling?
00:10:52.620
But from what I hear, my sources, Maverick Carter is like the brains of the operation.
00:10:57.740
Rich Paul, he's more on the agent side of things.
00:11:04.900
It would be so stupid to ruin everything you've built for 30 freaking years over some gambling debts.
00:11:12.840
So if LeBron is implicated whatsoever, you know there's going to be a fall guy.
00:11:17.060
Like your boy Shohei Ohtani, who might end up winning the World Series MVP.
00:11:20.980
What happened with that whole gambling nonsense?
00:11:26.140
He's going to be MVP, but not World Series MVP.
00:11:35.680
Everyone thought that that was going to be the end of Shohei Ohtani.
00:11:38.260
That the translator even went really, really fast.
00:11:50.160
Because sports leagues protect their superstars.
00:12:06.520
When you come up and you kind of mind your own business and you do your own thing, you'll
00:12:40.400
Because he has to because he's owned the other party.
00:12:43.440
Every day I remember Obama would say, I inherited an administration.
00:12:50.540
Obama, God forbid you move something onto Obamacare, you move one thing.
00:12:54.480
Yeah, but in this case, in this case, in this case, I think there's something there.
00:13:11.460
Do you think if Clutch doesn't protect him, do you think Chauncey opens up?
00:13:19.880
I don't think Chauncey, I think he was like a bait for the mafia.
00:13:23.780
And by the way, amongst those three guys, to me, Chauncey shouldn't have been there.
00:13:39.920
Do you think the way Chauncey played the game, do you think he played because he had a 38-inch vertical leap?
00:13:44.260
Or do you think he played the way because he was brilliant?
00:13:49.960
I think Chauncey has got a lot of respect and a lot of love from a lot of people in the league.
00:13:55.900
And I don't know if Chauncey and LeBron are on the same team.
00:14:17.340
Pull up the video of him walking with the clutch sports.
00:14:19.860
So do that same thing except type in Chauncey Billups walking.
00:14:42.680
Well, it's that NBA head coach, Hall of Famer, Chauncey Billups.
00:14:51.140
You think, by the way, just out of curiosity, what percentage do you give it that is just
00:14:55.720
purely, because I think there's a percentage that is coincidental.
00:14:59.060
What percent chance do you think it's coincidental?
00:15:13.020
Guys, I'm telling you, if this, here's the one thing you got to know about Trump.
00:15:23.200
I'm telling you guys right now, my feeling is, I know the profile of Trump.
00:15:29.140
I understand that profile very well of a human being.
00:15:41.320
I know, I know, I, I, I, trust me, I, I'll tell you.
00:15:49.020
And he is also turned from one city to another.
00:15:55.740
And I'm telling, and I'm telling you right now, and you said, you made a good point.
00:15:58.640
I see the, being a father and, God bless you, being a father and a good father, to me, Pat,
00:16:08.580
Do you guys remember, uh, Makai Bryant, who was a black girl who was trying to stab another
00:16:14.660
A cop shows up, shoots the aggressor, and then he posts, LeBron posts a photo of the cop
00:16:23.480
That's calling for violence and then deletes the post.
00:16:26.480
Okay, all the stuff during the George Floyd, all the crap that he talked about the president
00:16:30.620
and all that stuff, I don't think he's that good of a guy.
00:16:33.560
The father part, I could understand, but I agree with you.
00:16:42.880
So you, you don't think there's, and by the way, don't, you don't think cash has some
00:16:48.800
You think we forgot, like how bad you made us look?
00:16:57.320
There would be no bigger story in the history of sports than if this guy doesn't make it
00:17:02.080
in the Hall of Fame because of something like that.
00:17:10.860
I don't see it happening, but we're going to, but hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:17:18.140
Based on the way I set it up and I presented it, where are you at with the likelihood of him
00:17:32.380
The NBA's not going to let LeBron go down like that.
00:17:42.740
The face of the league you're not going to put in the Hall of Fame?
00:17:58.460
By the way, as great as LeBron is, I don't know if he's Barry Bonds.
00:18:06.420
You put Barry Bonds in his sport versus LeBron?
00:18:11.480
Barry Bonds is a much, much greater athlete of his sports.
00:18:26.900
But to me, if the MLB was willing to not allow Bonds, the first half of his career is a Hall of Fame career.
00:18:44.240
How many Hall of Famers did not make it to the Hall of Fame in the MLB?
00:18:54.600
He won seven times Cy Young, and he's not in the Hall of Fame.
00:19:43.260
Why would Cash Patel come out for three NBA players to say, let me tell you what we're
00:20:00.220
Pat, you know what David Stern would have done?
00:20:02.480
In a quiet restaurant with LeBron James, LeBron, this is a football.
00:20:15.740
What is the percentage of them actually, if this is true, going at, like, pursuing?
00:20:31.780
I'm hearing Kevin Garnett's name all of a sudden.
00:20:53.760
The guys are going to go down and be the fall guys or the mafia guys.
00:21:00.500
This will either become steroids like baseball where action is taken or it's going to be
00:21:06.600
the Epstein files where everybody knows everybody's guilty but nothing happens.
00:21:10.160
And that's where Vinny's going to lose his mind.
00:21:16.620
But there's two possibilities, don't you think?
00:21:22.640
Because can you tell me how many people in Trump's circle are in the NBA?
00:21:33.520
None of the people I know were at those card games.
00:21:36.180
No, guys, this is about to be a very different story.
00:21:54.580
And by the way, remember, for those of you guys that you ever wonder why we have the gear
00:22:06.940
