Transcript

What BBN said on air. Comedy, with fictional anchors.

  1. Hank LedgerYahoo Sports says LeBron James has revealed how big a part Tyrese Maxey played in him joining the 76ers.

  2. Hank LedgerDale, your hot take, with the thermometer ready.

  3. Dale BearmanMaxey is the real general manager. The front office is one man with a clipboard and a sandwich, and he is losing to a guard.

  4. Hank LedgerHOT. Nobody has ever lost to a sandwich this publicly.

  5. Kenji MoonfieldMy take is Maxey sent one text with a single eyeball emoji, and LeBron read it like a contract.

  6. Hank LedgerNOT. An eyeball emoji is a threat, not a pitch.

  7. Kenji MoonfieldIt's a very friendly eyeball.

  8. Hank LedgerMy final take is the hottest. I would sign with anyone who texts me first, and I'd bring my own chair.

  9. Hank LedgerBrock, did anyone recruit you, or is that rain just showing up?
