Summary
In the wake of LeBron signing with the 76ers, Mike and Brendan continue to be cranky about public contract squabbling of Tarik Skubal and Jalen Duren. While Skubal seems to put his foot in his mouth routinely, Duren simply seems to be out of touch with how the rest of the NBA values his services. His pursuit of a max contract extension from the Pistons is a non-starter for Valenti.
