CJ is coming up on 620 btw. Pretty ridiculous setup. In between back to backs, arrived prolly around 2 AM last night, and up at 8 to interview on radio for a media obligation? I'd sacrifice a few mil to avoid this. https://www.iheart.com/live/rip-city-radio-620-1965/
Whoever this dude is asking CJ this question about Festus is an idiot. So awkward. Paraphrasing. CJ says: "there's a time and place for everything. I fall in the middle. Nothing wrong with guys speaking up, and there also comes a time when you don't want to hear it." More: laughing... "I can't recall, it was so long ago. I've removed myself from that and trying to move forward." more laughing. More: "I have nothing against Festus. Nice guy, means well, a guy who's played on championship teams and knows what it takes to win. But at that time, we were blowing games due to poor execution, and our losses had more to do with execution of game plans and closing games, rather than effort. With everything, there's a little bit of truth to every rumor, gotta take a grain of salt what you hear sometimes." "It's easy to pick a team apart when you're losing. Obviously we haven't played well. We haven't played upto our expectations individually and from outside. But to say we have locker room issues couldn't be further from the truth. It's been a combination of late-game execution and we lost Dame due to injury, and our defensive leader in Aminu, and a guy like Festus who can protect the rim, while also incorporating Evan, it's a combination of issues."
