1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: The volume. All right, welcome to Hoops Tonight. You're at 2 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,600 Speaker 1: the volume. Happy Tuesday, everybody. We finally have a resolution 3 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: to the Jonathan cominga contract saga. He has agreed to 4 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: a two year deal with a team option. It's different 5 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: than what was originally discussed, at least in the reporting 6 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: that I had seen. I had seen that the debate 7 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: was between a two plus one with a team option 8 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 1: or two plus one with a player option. But it 9 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 1: looks like it's going to be a one plus one 10 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: with a player option. We're gonna give my opinion on that, 11 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 1: as well as some of the other reported signings that 12 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: have taken place over the course of the last few 13 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: days for the Warriors when I think about them in 14 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: the big picture as well. Then we'll get out of 15 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: here for the day. Just quick and easy one.

We're doing some season previews right now, 30 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: but right after our season previews, we're gonna have a 31 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: mail bag, so you guys can get your questions in there. 32 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk some basketball. So two years, forty 33 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: eight and a half million team option. The way that 34 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: sham Sarani reported it is that it's designed to be 35 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: tradeable and to make it so that either the Warriors 36 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: or whoever Jonathan's next team is has the ability to 37 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: essentially rip up that second year in to renegotiate the contract. 38 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: I think that that team option is mainly more of 39 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: like a team control type of way of looking at 40 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: this in terms of passing the buck to next summer. 41 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: So if you think of it like this, when you 42 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: draft a player, you have their restricted free agent rights, right, 43 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: you get through your rookie contract, you go into free agency, 44 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: they go to some other team, and they get to 45 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: some deal, you have the right to match. If the 46 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: Warriors were not able to achieve that team option or 47 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: control after this season, then essentially Jonathan Kaminga could walk 48 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: for nothing next summer. And so the Warriors wanted that 49 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: team option, so that essentially, if they get into negotiations 50 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: next summer and they still can't work something out, or 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 1: if the team that trades for Jonathan Kaminga gets into 52 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: the negotiations with Jonathan Kaminga and they can't work something out, 53 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: they at least have the leverage of that team option. 54 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: Well we're at least getting you for one additional year. 55 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: So looks like a win for the Warriors in that regard, 56 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: but at the same time, a nice salary number for 57 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: Jonathan Kaminga, a player who, again, like I understand that 58 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: he has a ton of potential, but it hasn't really 59 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: come to fruition with the Warriors. Not entirely his fault. 60 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 1: It's a bad kind of situation for him in a 61 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: lot of ways, which we'll talk more about in a minute. 62 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: But to get twenty five million for this season. That's 63 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: a nice paybump for a young player, gets another opportunity 64 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: to demonstrate whether or not he is worth that deal 65 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: that he wants, and it is super tradable if you're 66 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: looking for a high upside forward. Getting him at twenty 67 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: five million, with the ability to let him walk or 68 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: to negotiate a lower deal in the future, or at 69 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: least have some team control going into next summer, that 70 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: makes him a much more tradable deal. Then let's say 71 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: it's a two plus one with a player option at 72 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: seventy five million, and now all of a sudden, it's 73 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: like we trade for Kaminga. It doesn't really pan out 74 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: the way we were hoping. Now we're on the hook 75 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: to give this guy an additional fifty million over the 76 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: next couple of years, which then could be very difficult 77 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: to trade on the second end of that deal. Right, 78 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: So win for the Warriors. Nice paybump for Jonathan Minga. 79 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: Now we're moving on to this season. Now in the 80 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: short term, it's on Jonathan Kaminga to earn a way 81 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: into the rotation. I think there's an interesting angle here, 82 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: which is how much will the Warriors just choose to 83 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: lean on Jonathan just as an attempt to juice his 84 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: trade value. But you could also take that the opposite 85 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: direction and say that it's more of a mistique if 86 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: he's less involved, and you could have a team sit 87 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: there being like, oh, he's being under utilized. We'll get 88 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: more out of him. I'll be really curious to see 89 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: how much he cracks the rotation depending on that specific 90 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: strategy point from the Warriors, But in terms of basketball, 91 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: Jonathan Kaminga can force his way on the floor by 92 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: earning Steve Kerrz trust in forcing his way into a 93 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: rotation that for years has needed offensive pop. Right. So, 94 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: one of the big kind of like points of contention 95 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years between people who are 96 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: big believers in Jonathan Kaminga and people within the Warriors 97 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: and people that follow the Warriors that are not into 98 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: him in this particular context is the basketball fit. Right. 99 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: There have been these stretches, whether it be the tail 100 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: end of the Houston Rocket series after Steph Curry pulls 101 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: his hamstring, or it's you know, a year and a 102 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: half ago in the middle of the regular season when 103 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,559 Speaker 1: he ripped off whatever it was like six or seven 104 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: straight twenty plus point games. There have been these stretches 105 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 1: where Jonathan Kaminga has demonstrated the ability through higher usage 106 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: to score the basketball at least that volume. Right, But 107 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: that is very different than the concept of playing winning 108 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: basketball on the Golden State Warriors. Those are two very 109 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: different concepts. They lost that series to the Houston Rockets. Right, 110 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: there is an ultimate goal that this Warriors team has 111 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: built on a old Steph Curry, an old Jimmy Butler, 112 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: an old Draymond Green, an old Al Horford, which is, 113 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: we're trying to get the Larry O'Brian right now. And 114 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: that changes the calculus for Steve Kerr in terms of 115 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: him putting together lineups, putting together rotations, and so why 116 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: hasn't Jonathan Kaminga fit on the Warriors? And it simply 117 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: comes down to Jonathan Kaminga is a young scoring four 118 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: who is learning how to become a more efficient scorer 119 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: in a higher volume role, who is learning how to 120 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: handle as he goes higher and higher on the opponent's 121 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: scouting report, as things get tougher, as they start to 122 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: dig down on his post ups and start to bring 123 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: double teams to as we can, and all that sort 124 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: of thing. All that sort of stuff. He's learning how 125 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: to do that, and there is potential for Jonathan Kaminga 126 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: in the future to be an All Star in this 127 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: league as a scoring forward, but he is not that 128 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: yet and what the Warriors need from him right now 129 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: on offense is quick decisions knocking down open shots. Okay, 130 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: you got a mismatch because of a ball screen with 131 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: Steph or because of the team we're playing, or tossing 132 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: it down to you. You attack quickly, You are decisive, 133 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: You read the help that comes in front of you. 134 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: You may you don't stop the ball, but rather you 135 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: make quick decisions in the Warrior system. This is why 136 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: all of these guys like Brandon Pajemski have just kind 137 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: of slotted in and played well. Or whether it's Gie 138 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: Santo's or it's you know, Pat's, any of these like 139 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: random dudes that have gotten more trust from Steve Kerr 140 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: than Jonathan Kaminga has. It's literally because Steve wants dudes 141 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: to make quick decisions in the offense. This is a 142 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 1: five out motion. Everyone's involved. We're working to get Steph 143 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: Curry shots. We're either looking to get Steph Curry a 144 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: shot or a wide open three or a dunk. That's 145 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: basically the offense, and so they're looking for guys that 146 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: can quickly make decisions in that flow, and that is 147 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: something that Jonathan has struggled with over the years. So 148 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: an early part of this season goal for him to 149 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: achieve a spot in the rotation is making quick decisions 150 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: in the offense, knocking down his open spot, up threes, 151 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: beating mismatches in the posts quickly and decisively. That's how 152 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: he can earn his way onto the four, and then 153 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: on the defensive end of the four. Jonathan's always been 154 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: a pretty solid on ball weapon. He's got good length 155 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: and good activity. He moves his feet well and it's 156 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: kind of like a singular focus for him. That is 157 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: something that he's thrived in. But off ball he can 158 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: be a nightmare. Sometimes you lose a sight of man 159 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: and ball. He can lose relocating shooters, he can lose crashers. 160 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: He is somebody that Steve Kerr does not trust on 161 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: the defensive end of the floor. So another part of 162 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: earning that trust and earning a bigger spot in the 163 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: rotation is his off ball awareness, keeping track of man 164 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: and ball, being in the right spots in the game plan, 165 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: making sure that you're accounting for your man in defensive 166 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: rebounding situations. Those are the kinds of things that Steve 167 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: Kerr is paying very close attention to. So again, we'll 168 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: see how much the Golden State Warriors just choose to 169 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: play Jonathan in terms of juicing his trade value. But 170 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: if it is strictly a basketball proposition in a front 171 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: court that already has Jimmy Butler, Andreimond Green, and Al Horford, 172 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: and they're probably going to play one of the other 173 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: young centers quite a bit. And Steve Kerr is a 174 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: guy that likes to play three guard lineups. Gary Payton 175 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: is a guy that in many cases operates as a 176 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: three or four on the floor in their lineups defensively 177 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: and as a rebounder. Jonathan's going to have to earn 178 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 1: that trust through what he's doing on both ends of 179 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: the floor. Or like we just broke down in the 180 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 1: long term, and I talked about this when we were 181 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 1: doing a little update on the kaminga situation about a 182 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: week ago. I know that you weren't huge fans of 183 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: the Monk deal, the Kings deal. You know, I've seen 184 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: enough from Warriors fans that they don't seem to be 185 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: big believers in it. Obviously, the Warriors brass wasn't a 186 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: big believer in it because they didn't take the deal. 187 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: But I don't think that they're gonna get anything substantially better. 188 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: I don't think that this story ends with a trade 189 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: in January where Johnathan Kaming is bringing back like a 190 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: really nice, high upside young player on a rookie contract 191 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: and another really useful role player and multiple draft picks 192 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: Like I don't think that's happening, not unless Jonathan has 193 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: some sort of massive breakout, which if he did, the 194 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: Warriors would then be inclined to keep him if you 195 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: were to succeed in a winning context alongside this particular 196 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors team. And so the most likely scenario. 197 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: Today's show is brought to you by our new presenting sponsor, 198 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: hard Rock Bet.

Is that Jonathan is in and out of 226 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: the rotation like usually is, or if he maintains a 227 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,559 Speaker 1: rotation spot, it's a smaller rotation spot. That his output 228 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: is inconsistent because his skill set doesn't really fit this 229 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors team super well. That it continues to 230 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: be more or less the same frustrating experience for Kaminga 231 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: and for the Warriors and for their fans as it 232 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: was for the last couple of years, and it ends 233 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: in a trade in January that is something like the 234 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: Monk deal, a protected first round pick, some sort of 235 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: large contract that you're kind of iffy on whether or 236 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: not it's really that good of a contract, but maybe 237 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: he's just a better fit for what you're trying to 238 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: do than John and the Kaminga is I think that 239 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: is more or less the best that you're going to do, 240 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: and so in the long run, I wouldn't be, you know, 241 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: holding out hope for some sort of fantastic return. I 242 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna be the case. Now. Looking at 243 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: the Warriors this season, we've had some reported signings that 244 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: came in over the last couple of days. In our 245 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: season preview, we kind of already addressed some of these, 246 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: but I want to go over them again briefly. Al 247 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: Horford multi year contract. Good for Al, good for the Warriors. 248 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: Also in the report, he's going to be starting games. 249 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: That's interesting on several levels. Jackson and I were just 250 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: talking before this recording. We both agree that this is 251 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: probably their best five anyway. Al at the five, Jimmy 252 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: at the three, Draymond at the four, Steph at the one. 253 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: You know, POD's moody d Anthony Melton. Whoever ends up 254 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: being as that like go to number two when the 255 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: time comes, that's gonna end up being their best five. 256 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: This is a group that's probably gonna do a lot 257 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: of switching with those three. It's gonna be a lot 258 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: of communication, a lot of high IQ defensive playmaking, reading 259 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: play before they happen, getting in front of them. Al 260 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: Horford has always been an extremely gifted switch big. It's 261 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: something that he's succeeded at throughout his career. He's very 262 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 1: good at guarding bigger bully ball players on the perimeter 263 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 1: by just giving ground, forcing them into long contested jump shots. 264 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: He keeps his chest in front when they attack, and 265 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 1: he forces them to make tougher hooks and tougher short 266 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: turnarounds and things along those lines. Obviously he's older now well. 267 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: One of the things that Jackson and I were talking 268 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: about before we started. He started last year in Boston 269 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: kept his minutes right around twenty seven minutes per game, 270 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: and so just because you start him doesn't necessarily mean 271 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 1: you're gonna wear him into the ground. It's leaning into 272 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: a lineup that you'll ultimately go down with. And every 273 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: game that I'll plays right like it's in most cases 274 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 1: you're gonna be going down with him. In closing situations, 275 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: you want to continue to get as much reps, as 276 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: many reps as possible with al with the starters, I 277 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: think it makes sense to basically play him four shifts 278 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: a half. Play him to start the game, play him 279 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: to end the first half, play him to start the 280 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 1: second half, play him to end the game. I think 281 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: that's an easy way to keep him in that twenty 282 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: four twenty six minute range. It allows you to keep 283 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: most of his minutes alongside the starters so that you 284 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: can continue to build out the chemistry for the lineup 285 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,239 Speaker 1: that you're gonna lean on when you get to the postseason. 286 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: And I just think he's an awesome basketball fit. Is 287 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: a basketball fan, and as a fan of Steph Curry, 288 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: and as a fan of the way the Warriors play basketball, 289 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: I'm very excited to watch Al Horford play with his team. 290 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: I think he is the quintessential stretch five, high IQ 291 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: quick decision maker that Golden State's been hunting for years 292 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: that they haven't been able to find. I think it's 293 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: going to be just super fun to get to see 294 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: that a guy that can shoot closer to the way 295 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: Quinton Post shoots the ball, but that can read and 296 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: react with the best of him. This is a player 297 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: that was playing really high level drive and kick basketball 298 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: the last few years in Boston. We were watching the 299 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four finals and he's ripping baseline out of 300 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: the corner and like throwing awesome whip passes to the 301 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: opposite corner, making high level reads. He's a guy that 302 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: can dribble, pass, and shoot at the center position. That 303 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: is going to be a really fun thing to watch 304 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: with the Golden State Warriors, and then again, just one 305 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: of the most high IQ switching bigs in the league 306 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: still at this point in his career, and so him 307 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: Jimmy Draymond, They're going to be really really fun to 308 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: watch defensively in that front court. The Anthony Melton prototypical 309 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: Warriors guards, so much so that when he got hurt 310 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: last year, it kind of felt like a given he'd 311 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: eventually work his way back to Golden State, knowing that 312 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: he wouldn't be able to play at any point the 313 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: remainder of that season. What I like about him is 314 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: he provides kind of a higher floor option than some 315 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: of the other options the Warriors have at that position, 316 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: whether it's Gary Payton that can bring obviously defense and activity, 317 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: baseline cutting read four on three reads in the middle 318 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: of the floor, but he's a guy that can be 319 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: an inconsistent shooter a Brandon Pajemski, a guy that's a 320 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: great rebounder, a guy that brings some of that read 321 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: and reacts skill in some higher level scoring chops. He 322 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: scored the ball really well towards the tail end of 323 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: the season, but very inconsistent offensive player, and his perimeter 324 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: quickness sometimes can leave a little bit to be desired 325 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: in higher level matchups when he's guarding on the perimeter, 326 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: right de Anthony Melton, I don't necessarily think he'll start 327 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: or though, who knows, maybe his knees doing great. Maybe 328 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: maybe he gets into camp, kicks everybody's ass and he 329 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: ends up starting. But he just gives Steve Kerr like 330 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: the this is the guy who's pretty good at everything, 331 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: high floor veteran option. It's just another option to have 332 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: for that fifth starter in those groups that would not 333 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: be the least bit surprised if we saw some situations 334 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: this year where the Warriors were closing games with Stephan 335 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: de Anthony as well as Jimmy Draymond and Al Horford. 336 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 1: Gary Payton, there's you know, I was very disappointed to 337 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: see when he was signed. It there is some conflicting 338 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: sentiments surrounding Gary Payton and whether or not he still 339 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: has the ability to compete at a super high level 340 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: with this team. I'm just a huge believer in Gary Payton. 341 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: I think he's an awesome fit with the Warriors. I 342 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: still think that, Yeah, even though he may be not 343 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: the same athlete he was when he was twenty seven 344 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: years old. I still think he's a very useful rotation 345 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: player in the NBA, and because of the way this 346 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: roster's put together, you're not necessarily depending on him. I 347 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: think he just does a ton of dirty work. I 348 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: think he's got I think that it's a continuity play too. 349 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: This is an underrated piece of all this stuff, Like 350 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: the Warriors have been playing a lot of the same 351 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: dudes for a long time. That's a big part of 352 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: how you have an advantage matchup to match up in 353 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: the postseason when you're just used to playing the same 354 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: type of basketball year in and year out. Gary Payton's 355 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: a very natural fit there. Now interesting piece from the 356 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: report the Warriors only have about two million left in 357 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: usable cap space, so Seth Curry is going to be 358 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: the guy who gets pinched as a result of this 359 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: kaminga deal. However, sham Sharani and his report included that 360 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: they will be able to sign a veteran minimum player 361 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: on November fifteenth. It wasn't explicitly reported that they would 362 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: sign set at that point, but it was conspicuous the 363 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: way they lined it up in the report to make 364 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: it look as though the Warriors would strongly be looking 365 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: at Seth. I think Seth is a great fit within 366 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: this Warriors team as well. He brings scoring on the perimeter, 367 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: which is something this roster has needed for a long time. 368 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: It gives you just like another option to in terms 369 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: of Buddy Healed, when Buddy Heeld's having one of those 370 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: nights where he's not, you know, hitting shots and his 371 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: head's not in it on defense, I saw Buddy and 372 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: his presser in on media day talking about how he 373 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: shot the ball well all summer long, and obviously shot 374 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: the ball super well in the postseason. So maybe Buddy 375 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: plays super well and the Warriors look to go a 376 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: different direction with that veteran minimum spot. So maybe they 377 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: keep it open. But it's been implied that Seth Curry 378 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: is the guy they would be looking at on November fifteenth. 379 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: I think he's a really natural fit there. Big picture 380 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: with the Warriors, you know, there's a lot of talk 381 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: about their age, and I think those age concerns are legitimate. 382 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: I look at it more as like a just a 383 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: big picture playoff concern, Like I have the Warriors as 384 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 1: a second tier contender. I know that not everyone agrees 385 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: with me on that. I think they're in that tier. 386 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: I have them towards the bottom of that tier. And 387 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: the main reason why is just because when you have 388 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: Steph who's thirty seven, Jimmy late thirties, you know, Draymond 389 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: Taylor of his prime. I'm Al Horford, like, when you 390 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: got those four dudes, who are four dudes that are 391 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: in your best five lineup, it's just a lot to 392 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,360 Speaker 1: ask them to survive an eighty two game season and 393 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: for playoff rounds without something happening, especially in the brutally 394 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: tough Western Conference. And so with that being the case, 395 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: I think they have at least a good amount of 396 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: risk in terms of just oh, they get to April 397 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: and this guy's hurt, or that guy's not at one 398 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: hundred percent, this guy's dealing with back issues, this guy's 399 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: dealing with some other type of issue. I look at 400 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: it as a big picture concern with their playoff ceiling. 401 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: If they're healthy and you're in a second round series 402 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: and Steph's healthy and Draymond's healthy, and Jimmy's healthy and 403 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: Al's healthy, and the rotation is solid, and they're there 404 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: on the floor with you. No one's gonna give a 405 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: damn about their age. They're gonna be a huge pain 406 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: in the ass to beat, and I view them as 407 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: a legitimate puncher's chance team to win the title. But 408 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: it's just getting to that point without something happening that 409 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,479 Speaker 1: makes it a tough call. That's why I view them 410 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: as towards the bottom end of that second tier of contenders. 411 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: As far as the regular season goes, I'm actually pretty 412 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 1: bullish on them a couple of reasons. One Steve Current 413 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: that front office have always done a really nice job 414 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: of just finding dudes in their rotation that can play minutes, 415 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: like they had fourteen to fifteen guys last year that 416 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: could play. Because they keep finding the Gee Santos's and 417 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: the Pat Spencers of the world that just can go 418 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 1: play Warriors basketball successfully. Because they have such a strong 419 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: basketball culture from the very top down. It's an organization 420 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: that I have a ton of respect for. And then 421 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 1: the second piece of it is in the regular season, 422 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: that youthful exuberance, energy, basketball culture, top down continuity. That's 423 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: a huge part of how you win games. The Warriors 424 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: also have an excellent home court advantage, and so if 425 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: somebody misses a good chunk of games, and say Draymond 426 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: misses some time, say Al misses some time, even Steph 427 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: misses ten fifteen games, Like you feel like you might 428 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: be able to go five hundred with Steph out just 429 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: based on your aggregate talent, your basketball culture, and winning 430 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: your home games. Right, So, like, I'm less worried about 431 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: them as a regular season team. I think they're gonna 432 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: be able to stay afloat in the standings. I think 433 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: they have a good chance to get into that five 434 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: or six seed and avoid the play in. It's more 435 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: just are they all gonna be healthy and clicking on 436 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: all cylinders when they get to April and May. That's 437 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: a bigger question mark than some of the younger, younger 438 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 1: teams in the West that are deeper in top end talent. 439 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 1: I think that's what puts them towards the bottom end 440 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: of that tier. All right, guys, It's all I have 441 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: for today is always a sincerely appreciate you guys for 442 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: supporting us and supporting the show. Again. We're gonna be 443 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: continuing our season previews tomorrow. I believe with the Central Division, 444 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: I think we're covering an Eastern Conference division. I think 445 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: it's the Atlantic Division that we're covering this this Wednesday, 446 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: so keep an eye on the feeds. Tomorrow morning, we'll 447 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: have five more teams to cover, and then we're hitting 448 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: the next twenty teams over the course of the next 449 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: week and a half. We will see you guys.
