This isn't breaking news and probably, by now, everyone has seen the YouTube video in which Brandon Jennings and Joe Budden's expiring album deal argue about Luke Ridnour and the direction of the Knicks.

Not only was it a hilarious exchange, it was really eye-opening to see the true, unfiltered inner thoughts of a young and new NBA player, not to mention the fact that we all found out that Joe Budden is still alive. There are some pretty hilarious moments in this exchange and Chris Littmann of The Baseline has transcribed the entire conversation for us. Here is it is via Deadspin with an update afterwards:

On next season in Milwaukee ...

Budden: You better worry about Ramon Sessions, diggin' in your a**, pause.
Jennings: He's not going to be here. [inaudible] That money is going to Charlie.
Budden: N****, Ramon Sessions is gonna be there.
Jennings: I doubt it.
Budden: They ain't go no other guards.
Jennings: Ridnour.
Budden: N****, get that bum-a** n**** outta here.
Jennings: He's going to be a backup.
Budden: To who?
Jennings: To who? Who else n****?

On what happened on draft night ...

Budden: Who was hatin' on you?
Jennings: Jay Bilas.
Budden: What happened? You ran in the draft late or some dumb s*** like a loser?
Jennings: No, I was at the hotel. This is what happened right. My agent is like "Well, we ain't hear nothing .We ain't have no guarantee." So we makin' phone calls and s*** and n***** is saying like "The workouts is great and everything and he's the best point guard but we don't know yet, we just don't know."
Budden: They didn't say that about Rick Rubio, number one, and number two they didn't say you the best point guard. They said your jump shot is shaky, you got some potential, but your work ethic is bull****. You averaged 3 points.
Jennings: You're a liar. I know you're lying now.
Budden: I'm just telling you what they said.
Jennings: That ain't nothing but a college person.
Budden: Just tell me what happened. You end up running in the draft? I tunred it off after that.
Jennings: No, n****, I came out there and made my appearance n**** and I had the best appearance out of all them n******. And I was the best dressed, they said, by the way. I was the best dressed.

On whether he'll start next season ...

Budden: You think you gonna start for real though?
Jennings: I don't know, actually, I really don't know.
Budden: I heard that n**** Scott Skiles is an a**h***.
Jennings: That n**** tough, that n**** tough though. There must be a reason he liked me. There must be a reason.

On Ricky Rubio and the Knicks ...

Budden: Let me know when Minnesota get there. So I can watch Rubio light your f****** a** up. I never seen a n**** hate on Rubio so much.
Jennings: [inaudible]
Budden: You know what's funny? You're the only guard in the draft talking s*** about Rubio.
Jennings: The other n***** are scared.
Budden: What are you going to do when Rubio comes to the Knicks?
Jennings: Rubio is not coming, they are not giving up Rubio. You got Jordan Hill, you happy with that?
Budden: I don't really know enough about Jordan Hill to be happy ... I'm happy with Toney Douglas.
Jennings: I know they were booing this n****.
Budden: What does that mean? They boo everybody n****.
Jennings: If it was Stpehen Curry, them n***** would've went crazy in there.
Budden: Shut the f*** up, you don't even know nothing about New York basketball.
Jennings: F*** the Knicks, them n***** skipped out on me.
Budden: Oh man, you feel to the Knicks like I do about Jay-Z? [Laughs] Yo, the Knicks is your Jay-Z?
Jennings: F*** the Knicks, them n***** is always going to be weak.
Budden: This is where I f****** hang up on your f****** ass for talking stupid.
Jennings: Duhon ain't gonna get it done.

I love the fact that Brandon Jennings is writing off the Bucks bringing back a restricted free agent in Ramon Sessions, who has put up averages of 11 points and 6 assists per game in just 27 minutes per game for his two-year career after being a second round draft pick. Sessions' deal will probably be matched if it's around the mid-level exception or lower no matter how confident Jennings is.

Also, is there a single non-college player that likes Jay Bilas? There's no way, right?

ALSO, Brandon Jennings may be the first non-white, young male in this country to not take a shot at Luke Ridnour when given the opportunity.

By the way, Joe Budden having beef with Jay-Z is like me having beef with Adrian Wojnarowski.

Finally, the new developments in the story:

Brandon Jennings is apparently now learning from this incident.

"I'm pretty glad that it happened now, something that I can learn from," said Jennings, the No. 10 overall pick. "Now I know you can't trust everybody, everybody's not your friend. It was a joke. We were joking and everything. But for my part, I shouldn't be talking about team business that I have no idea about."

"I was wrong for the things I said," said Jennings, who expects to be able to practice Wednesday. "It was jokingly, we were playing around, laughing. But at the same time, I have to be careful and I'm going to learn from that."

"I shouldn't be talking about team business," Jennings said. "But if he comes back, that's good. We need all the help we can get to be a good team."

"We're OK," Jennings said. "We did talk about it, my agent, we all talked about it. Everybody's pretty upset about the situation. Because the last thing I was thinking about was I'm getting recorded on YouTube having a conversation with a friend. But like I said, I'll learn from it, and now I know I can't really trust everybody."

I feel like this is going to be the best draft class ever in terms of entertainment.
