Nice, let's throw 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: it up on the screen for everybody here joining us 22 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: on YouTube. It's a biggie. A lot of players move 23 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: in here. The Dallas Mavericks are trading ten time All 24 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: Star Anthony Davis to the Washington Wizards as part of 25 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: an eight player trade. The MAVs will receive Chris Middleton, 26 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: AJ Johnson, Malachi Bronham, Marvin Bagley, the third, two first 27 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: round draft picks, and three second rounders ad like I said, 28 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: going to Washington also acquiring Jaden Hardy, D'Angelo Russell, and 29 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: Dante Exum in the trade. And we know what those 30 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: draft picks are tasked. Dallas is receiving a twenty twenty 31 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: six thunder first round pick and a two thousand and 32 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: thirty protected Warriors first round pick. So that is the breakdown, 33 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: AD to the Wizards. Your thoughts, immediate thoughts here. 34 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: The Washington Wizards didn't give up a lot. That's my 35 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: initial thought. Two first round picks aren't real two for 36 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 2: ust round picks at all. The one this coming draft 37 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: is okay season. It's the thirtieth pick, that's the bottom 38 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: of the first round. That's like the best second rounder 39 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 2: you can get. That's all that is. And then the 40 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: other one. It's one through twenty protected, so it's twenty 41 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 2: one through thirty. It's a late first round pick essentially 42 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 2: for Anthony Davis. That's how I'm looking at it, just 43 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 2: one late first round pick, no disrespect to all of 44 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: the players involved. Hopefully AJ Johnson can become something. That 45 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 2: being said, I'm a little surprised that the Dallas Mavericks 46 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,679 Speaker 2: didn't wait until the offseason. Maybe they could have got 47 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: something more than this for Anthony Davis, but they're making 48 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 2: a trade right here, right now because this is all 49 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 2: they can get. 50 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: T K. 51 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I told Laura I'm hopping on in 52 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 4: another emergency podcast. Anthony Davis got traded. She just said, 53 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 4: what is it always like this? I was like, well, 54 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,119 Speaker 4: I mean there is usually trades running up to the deadline, 55 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 4: but they're not usually big trades like this, big names. 56 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 4: And I said, part of that is, you know, we're old, 57 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 4: and these old guys are starting to get traded at 58 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 4: the end of their careers when they have big contracts. 59 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 3: But also, the trade deadline has just. 60 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,399 Speaker 4: Become free agency now, team big name players are more 61 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 4: likely to change teams at the deadline, and a team 62 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 4: like the Wizards is really indicative of the new way 63 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 4: that the NBA works, where you use your cap space 64 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 4: to acquire players. They did it for Trey Young moving 65 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 4: off of CJ. McCollum and Corey Kispert. They're gonna have 66 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 4: to pay Trey Young. They did it with Chris Middleton 67 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 4: moving off his expiring contract, and now they're gonna have 68 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 4: to pay Anthony Davis. That's why they had this cap space. 69 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 4: Everybody's saying, why are they doing this? Why are they 70 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 4: trying to accelerate the rebuild after they just traded away 71 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 4: Denny Abdia trying to get younger. But look, when you've 72 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 4: won fifteen games followed by eighteen games then a thirteen 73 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 4: and thirty six season, that play in starts looking like 74 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 4: a juicy steak in a Tom and Jerry cartoon. It 75 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 4: looks nice. Nobody wants to suck for a five straight years. 76 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 4: Sometimes you have to get better. The Wizards didn't give 77 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 4: up any of their valuable young players, any of the 78 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 4: guys that they actually drafted and hoped to build around 79 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 4: in Keyshawn George and most importantly Alex Sar Trey Johnson. 80 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 4: He remains a Wizard. They did trade AJ Johnson maybe 81 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 4: he turns into something for Dallas, but he was kind 82 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 4: of just a throw in in the trade last year, 83 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 4: getting Middleton in the Kuzma deal. So I understand why 84 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 4: the Wizards did this. I think their defense can be 85 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 4: pretty nasty with Ad and Alex Sar, two guys who 86 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 4: don't want to play center, even though they should probably 87 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 4: play center. He had two four and a half stuff together. 88 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: Somehow it turns into two fives. So it's interesting they'll 89 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 4: be able to cover for Trey Young. I don't know 90 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 4: if this stunts the developm of guys like Trey Johnson 91 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 4: George a little bit. You know, I think that accelerating 92 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 4: the rebuild probably takes the focus off those guys a 93 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 4: little bit. But also having vets around who know how 94 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 4: to play basketball is gonna help them in the long term. 95 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 4: So yeah, if you add up Trey Young Anthony Davis 96 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 4: what the Wizards already have left over, that ten seed's 97 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 4: looking nice. Next year they might get up to seventh, 98 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 4: but that's an advancement, right like they are getting better. 99 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 4: So I totally understand it, and I'm with you. Disappointing 100 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 4: return for Anthony Davis to be getting two picks in 101 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 4: the twenties, one this year and then one four years 102 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 4: down the road. But that's what the market was for ad. 103 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 4: He's unreliable, he's hurt currently, and apparently this is the 104 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 4: best the Mavericks were gonna do because they don't want 105 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 4: to pay the guy. 106 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, what did I say on this morning's No Dunk 107 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: podcast when we were talking about the Mavericks and Cooper 108 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: Flag like looking immediately like a superstar and like, man, 109 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: they gotta go get some young talent to pair with 110 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: him right now, Like, don't even worry about picks too much, 111 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: let's get some talent, little bum to see in a 112 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: trade with the Wizards, they didn't get any of their 113 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: like young guys like you listed three already TK, but 114 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: you know Will Riley obviously, Bub Carrington as a guard, 115 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: Kolabali still young, Like, yeah, nobody coming back. So it 116 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: was really just those picks and some second rounders and 117 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: obviously guys to make it all work. But little disappointing 118 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: in the return. Especially this is the guy you traded 119 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: Luka Doncich for as well. I know that's done and 120 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: dusted and it's in the past, but man, when you're 121 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: gonna be stacking it all up and looking at the 122 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: basketball reference page moving forward, it's gonna hurt the Wizards. Uh, 123 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: pretty funny. I'll admit my heart skipped a beat task 124 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: when I saw the Shams tweet come in and I 125 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: saw that it was Anthony Davis and I saw there 126 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: was a bunch of players, yeah, and I thought, shit, 127 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: he's going to the Raptors. That's where my mind immediately went. 128 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: And then I let have a big sigh of relief 129 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: when I saw the Wizards. But yeah, they get obviously 130 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: a guy who is when he plays, a talented, talented 131 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: defensive guy, and there's gonna helpe him and Trey Young. 132 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: All those rumors about Trey Young and ad here in 133 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: Atlanta ends up happening in Washington. 134 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 3: They do want to play together. 135 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: They do want to play together. So yeah, well we'll see. 136 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,119 Speaker 1: But I'm with you guys sort of on both sides 137 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: of this. Not a lot to get them and a 138 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: little disappointing from Dallas's side of things, I guess, But 139 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: they're also just ripping off the band aid and it's 140 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: Cooper flag time of course. 141 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: Sure, but I don't see why a guy who's signed 142 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 2: through next season and then the following season has a 143 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 2: player option, so you know he's got a year under 144 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: locked inn guaranteed on his contract. That they didn't just 145 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 2: wait till the off season to see if there was 146 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 2: something better than a high first round pick. I mean, 147 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: I pick between the twenty and thirty mark. I don't 148 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 2: know why they didn't wait. He didn't have to play 149 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: basketball at all this season. He could they could have 150 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 2: kept him home, considering he's all he is injured. But yeah, 151 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: that's why I'm far more optimistic about the Wizard side 152 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 2: of things, because I am. I was like you, Skeets. 153 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I was sitting having some Indian lunch with 154 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 2: my wife. We just sat down to eat, and then 155 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 2: the tweet comes in and I see Wizards and I 156 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: see other players, and she goes, she was looking at 157 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 2: a screen, and she goes, who's Pat McPhee. And I said, 158 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 2: hold on a second, what Pat? No, No, no, Pat mccaffee. 159 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 2: And then so I started looking at the tweet and 160 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 2: she said, and then I said, no, it's not Pat 161 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: mccaffe it's Pat McAfee. So I was very occupied. I've 162 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 2: got lunch in front of me, I'm talking about Pat 163 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: McAfee and then you see Wizards plus all these picks 164 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 2: and all these players, it seemed a little bit like, WHOA, 165 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: they're paying a lot. But then you start to look 166 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 2: through it and really it's one late first round pick 167 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 2: for Anthony Davis. I know he does want to get 168 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: paid this offseason, extend past just one more guaranteed deal. Well, 169 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 2: I would say one more guaranteed year, just because that 170 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 2: player option is juicy two seasons from now. He wants 171 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 2: a long term deal. But I don't even know if 172 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 2: the if the Wizards pay him this offseason, I think 173 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: it'd be smart just to see him play next year 174 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 2: for their team and then make a decision after that 175 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty seven, after a year of him playing 176 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 2: the four, which he'll be super happy to do with 177 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 2: Alex Sar beside him. At least he can be a 178 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 2: mentor for Alex Sar. I mean, this is just I 179 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 2: know it's towards the end of his career and you 180 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 2: know Trey Young is where he's at. But it's got 181 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 2: to be way more optimistic for Wizards fans going forward 182 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: because Anthony Davis is playing for a contract. You look 183 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: at it that way. I mean, he does want to 184 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 2: get more money. It's not like he's going to be 185 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 2: air quotes injured all the time. I mean he wants, 186 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: he's gonna want to play basketball. Yeah, yeah, you know 187 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: what I mean, he's going to be injured as few 188 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 2: games as possible. Uh next season. 189 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 4: I mean, the Wizards probably don't hope that his career 190 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 4: is near the end. He's only what thirty two years old. 191 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 4: I mean, we talk like Anthony Davis as a one 192 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 4: hundred year old man, and he's coming to the end 193 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 4: of his career. They're gonna pay him when these trades happen. 194 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 4: The extension is part of it, like it's going to 195 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 4: be coming down the line. Sure, they could say, yeah, 196 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 4: go out and play. But part of the reason that 197 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 4: Ad is okay with a trade like this is that 198 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 4: he's gonna get paid. Same thing with Trey Young. They 199 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 4: see the opportunity there from a salary cap perspective, knowing 200 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 4: it's coming down the line. You throw in the fact 201 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 4: that Rich Paul's his agent. You know, this guy's getting paid. 202 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 4: So the Wizards have to hope he stays on the 203 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 4: court and that he lives up to his contract going forward. 204 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I am so interested to see how much they 205 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 2: pay a guy who's turning thirty three real soon March eleventh, 206 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 2: big birthday for Anthony Davis. Then he's gonna be thirty 207 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 2: four at the end of that season and you're gonna 208 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 2: sign a contract. He'll be asking for literally something until 209 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 2: he's thirty seven eight. For someone who has some trouble 210 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 2: playing games. That's I don't know if the Washington Wizards 211 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: are that type of team. I don't know if Will. 212 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: Bradley Beal no trade clause they paid. 213 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 4: They gave John Wallach giant contract when he was injured. 214 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 4: They gave Gilbert Arenas a giant contract when he was injured. 215 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 3: That they'd love to do. 216 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 2: This front offices grow up many it. 217 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 3: As a new front office. There's no doubt about it. 218 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: Is what they do. 219 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, those guys all got fired, so I mean, yeah, 220 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 4: let's see how this goes. But yeah, I mean, I 221 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 4: don't think the Mavericks could have done much better because 222 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 4: think about it, there were rumors that the Bulls were 223 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 4: going to be chasing after Anthony Davis. I was like, no, 224 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 4: thank you. You guys are saying the Raptors were chasing 225 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 4: after him. 226 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 3: No, thank you. 227 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 4: Happy to be out of the Anthony Davis business. Even 228 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 4: the Wizards fans we know, are like, oh, I don't 229 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 4: know if I want to be trading for this guy. 230 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 4: We're just dumb fans. So what do you think front 231 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 4: offices are thinking that actually have to put their reputations 232 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 4: and and money on the line for this. That's why 233 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 4: this deal got done. This is the best offer they 234 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 4: could get, Yeah for sure. 235 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it's not like this is like out of nowhere. 236 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: We known Anthony Davis has been in trade roomors for 237 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: a very long time. Yeah, so you would have to 238 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: imagine they did their due diligence and obviously canvass the 239 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: rest of the league and other teams like what are 240 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,719 Speaker 1: you offering? What's that? And you know, on paper, you 241 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: see two first round picks, three second rounders, and you're like, okay, 242 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: not bad. And then yeah, you dig a little deeper 243 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: into the actual details of the picks, you're like, okay, yeah, 244 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: they're sort of yeah, their first round picks, but you know, 245 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: we're not talking lottery picks here by any means, but 246 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: they're just they're just obviously, the decision has been made. 247 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: Now it's Kyrie. Will he play with Cooper? Like you 248 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: talked about this morning, TK like when he comes back, 249 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: if he comes back this season or is it more 250 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: likely next season and you give that a go, or 251 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: he'll be obviously available too as if State just lean 252 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: into the Cooper Flag it of it. 253 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 4: All well, at the very least, I think everybody else 254 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 4: on the Mavericks is definitely available. Kyrie probably not because 255 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 4: they would like to see him next to Cooper Flag 256 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 4: and he's currently injured. 257 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 3: But guys like PJ. 258 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 4: Washington, Daniel Gafford, Klay Thompson is certainly available. He's got 259 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 4: a long Nagie Marshall, Naji Marshall like, I think that 260 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 4: teams are gonna be calling Dallas and I think we'll 261 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 4: be talking about him tomorrow on our epic live stream. 262 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. Possibly, I loved I don't know if you saw 263 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 1: those comments from Nausei Marshall recently. He was he's trying 264 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: all he can to like stick stick by Cooper Flag 265 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: in Dallas. 266 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 3: I love this guy talking up Cooper, loves them. Yeah, 267 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: I want to do his laundry. I want to make 268 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 3: his bed for him. 269 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: That's smart man. Try and stick there, but we'll see. Yeah, 270 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: maybe he gets moved there. Maybe not done here. Maybe 271 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: there's more draft capital coming tasks in way of other players, 272 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: Like some of these are serviceable players, definitely. 273 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 2: You know one guy that wasn't talking up Cooper Flag 274 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 2: was Anthony Davis. Trey you pointed out how they weren't 275 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 2: communicating and in indefferent different like huddles and all that. 276 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 2: Although I brought up postgame, he did give it head 277 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 2: rub during his postgame interview. So yeah, I understand people 278 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 2: want to be beside Cooper Flag because he is the 279 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 2: next one. Maybe Anthony Davis didn't. I know what's going 280 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: around now is probably Anthony Davis was traded for Luka 281 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 2: Doncic and played twenty nine games for the Dallas Mavericks 282 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 2: in total, and then got dealt for a late first 283 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 2: round pick. It's some sad tweets going around Dallas fan. 284 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: I'm sure that trade was immediately the worst trade of 285 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: all time and has only really gotten worse because at 286 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: least you were like, well, ads a good player. What 287 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: he plays and what he plays, he's solid. I mean, 288 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: is it that bad? Yeah? No, it was always bad, 289 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: and it's even worse because he got injured like he 290 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: always does or tends to, and then they get this return. 291 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 2: Yeah it is. I know, I know. It's a little 292 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 2: similar to Trey Young in that a contender or somebody 293 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 2: on the higher end of the types of teams in 294 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 2: the NBA that are looking to win a championship didn't 295 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 2: go get a d I mean, it's either one end 296 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 2: or the other. It's a real bad team like the 297 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: Washington Wizards, or it could be a championship type team 298 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: trying to go for one shot with Anthony Davis. And 299 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: that's the disappointing part, you know, from a from a 300 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 2: fans perspective, besides Wizards fans. 301 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: As as soon as he got injured, I mean that 302 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: went poof right, like, yeah, the good team making a 303 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: move for him. There's going to be a team like this. 304 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: So what do you think, tass of Trey thinking Wizards 305 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: frisky playing team next year? Is it playing or bust 306 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: for Washington When you look at the Eastern Conference landscape 307 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: and can we get there and they should they be 308 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: able to What do you think. 309 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 2: Oh, gosh, yeah, yeah, they should be able to play 310 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 2: in or bust. 311 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 3: It could be busty. 312 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 2: I mean there's a lot of still playing worthy teams 313 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference. So yeah, now that we're watching 314 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 2: this Charlotte Hornets team rise, it's not a lock that 315 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: the Wizards would make it. 316 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: Any other thoughts Trey on this deal. 317 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 4: Wizards haven't been above five hundred since the twenty seventeen 318 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: eighteen season. Getting to forty one and forty one would 319 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 4: be awesome for them. I think they have a chance 320 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 4: to be in the play in Tournament next year, assuming 321 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 4: some development from their young guys. I wonder how many 322 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 4: games Tray Young and Anthony Davis are going to play 323 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 4: in the second half of the season. I think if 324 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 4: I'm a Wizards fan, I would like to at least 325 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 4: see him on the court a little bit together, see 326 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 4: what Trey can bring to the young guys there, see 327 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 4: how he meshes with Anthony Davis as well. But you 328 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 4: know they did the trade for Trey Young what two 329 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 4: weeks ago, three weeks ago? At this point, he doesn't 330 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 4: look like he's in a hurry to come back. We 331 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 4: know it'll be after the All Star break, and so 332 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 4: Anthony Davis maybe end of March, come on back. 333 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 3: We'll keep our lottery pick. 334 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 4: Hope we hit a big one and then they've got 335 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 4: the nucleus of something at least interesting in the Eastern Conference. 336 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. The overunder for the Dallas Mavericks coming into this 337 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 2: season was forty one and a half with Ad and 338 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 2: Cooper Flag supposed to be, you know, the two guys 339 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 2: leading their team. Ady was supposed to be healthy at 340 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 2: the beginning of the year. What's the Wizards over under 341 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 2: total going to be next year? If the team's looking 342 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 2: like it is right here right now, little. 343 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: If Ad and Trey Young are playing at the start 344 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 1: of the season, what you're saying with all their other 345 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: young guys, they're going to be the line's going to 346 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: be thirty four and a half. 347 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 2: Hire I think higher too. 348 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 4: I'm just thinking the teams like, okay, so the Balls 349 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 4: are going to be worse next season. The Bucks are 350 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 4: going to be worse next season. So there are two 351 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 4: guys that are there are two teams that are ahead 352 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 4: of Washington right now. I assume Washington will be better than 353 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 4: the next next year. But the Pacers will be better. 354 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 4: Pacers will be better. Give me, give me forty forty 355 00:17:58,440 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 4: and a half is the line? 356 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: Okay? And you finished, I'm taking I'm taking the under. 357 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 4: If it's fine, I'll tell you right now, absolutely, absolutely. 358 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, that's why I thought it'd be a little lower. 359 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: But we'll see. Uh what else, any other the players, 360 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: any of the other guys you're you're touched on A. J. Johnson. 361 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: You got a little excited tasks that maybe he is 362 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: one of these guys that can grow alongside Cooper. But otherwise, 363 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,719 Speaker 1: is it a bit of a bit of a shrug 364 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: to a lot of these names? 365 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 2: Unfortunately it's a it's a shrug fest here. Yeah, simple 366 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: as that. 367 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: I'll throw it back up for everybody if you're just 368 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: joining us. There's all the names included here. 369 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 4: There are some names. D'Angelo Russell feels like he was 370 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:40,959 Speaker 4: made to be a Washington wizard. 371 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: I had to double check that he hadn't already played 372 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: for the Widows exactly. I sort of thought, yeh, exactly right. Yeah, yeah, 373 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: I agree, I thought he already played for Yeah. 374 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 2: The kind of make it feel like it was wizard like. 375 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, yeah, maybe, uh all right, any other 376 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 1: any other thoughts because we have another little smaller deal. 377 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 4: Hey, Marvin bagleys, Marvin Bagley's had a good season. 378 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 3: Yes, he has big beans himself. 379 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 4: He's the way he's looked alright, he looked all right, 380 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 4: I look good next to Cooper Flag a couple of duchies. 381 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 1: We had a second trade not long after the Big 382 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: Ady to the Washington Wizard's trade was broken by Cham's 383 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 1: and that is the seventy six Ers trading guard Jared 384 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder for a twenty twenty 385 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: six Rockets first round pick and three second round picks. 386 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: Jared McCain going to the defending champs tasks your immediate 387 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: reaction to this one. 388 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 2: My immediate reaction was frustration. Anger. Okay, see did it again? 389 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 2: That what a smart move. It was some very very 390 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 2: smart move to pick up Jared McCain when his trade 391 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 2: value was at its lowest. I would say he's only 392 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 2: been in the league for one year and had such 393 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 2: a good rookie season. Came into this one banged up, 394 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 2: immediately injured after that photo shoot that video came out 395 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 2: of him working out. I remember he was lifting a 396 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 2: two point five pound weight. That was a different photo shoot, 397 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 2: different from his injury, but at the same time it happened. 398 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 2: It was really strange. Preseason he hasn't been able to 399 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 2: play and get into the rotation of the Sixers, who 400 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 2: are looking to drop some money here as they go forward. 401 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 2: But he had such a good season last year. This 402 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 2: is just an ok see smart move to have this 403 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 2: guy be able to come off your bench and literally 404 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 2: drop fifteen or eighteen in a quarter if need be. 405 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 2: I mean he could go help win a playoff game, 406 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: that's how good he is off the bench. And to 407 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 2: give up only a late first rounder essentially for him 408 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 2: along with those second round picks, I think this just 409 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 2: smells like, okay see success. This is a great move 410 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 2: for them. 411 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: All right, Tas likes it. You know, the surplus of 412 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 1: picks obviously that Okaysee has Trey, they go get Jared McCain. 413 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: They do see maybe a Bilo opportunity, and Philly had 414 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: other reasons to sort of get off him. But what 415 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,959 Speaker 1: are your initial response? 416 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with Tass. 417 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 4: I think this is a pretty smart use of extra 418 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 4: picks by the Thunder. Currently the Rockets pick is number 419 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 4: twenty six. Are you getting a better player than Jared 420 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 4: McCain at number twenty six and this year's draft? 421 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 3: Maybe? Maybe not? 422 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 4: Though how good is Jared McCain, I don't know. He 423 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 4: had twenty three awesome games last season when the seventy 424 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 4: six ers were doing absolutely nothing. He has not looked 425 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 4: as good this season, though, I will say he's been 426 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 4: trending up in the year twenty twenty six. Shot forty 427 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 4: nine percent from three in January, currently a whopping two 428 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 4: for four from three in February. The Thunder can use 429 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 4: another guy who can create with the ball in his hands, 430 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 4: can shoot from outside, so this is decent. Like Alex Cruso, 431 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 4: he's out for two games, throwing Jared McCain. He gets 432 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 4: some and it's Cason Wallace. He's bricking tonight. We're throwing 433 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 4: in Jared McCain. We just found out shake Yill. Just 434 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 4: Alexander's gonna miss a little bit of time. It'll be 435 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 4: good to have somebody with the ball in his hands 436 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 4: getting shots up. I think this is what they should 437 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,199 Speaker 4: be doing when they have so many f extra picks. 438 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 3: So good on them. 439 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 4: As for Philadelphia, you know, I think it means that 440 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 4: they're going to convert Don Barlow from a two way 441 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 4: contract to a standard contract, since they're clearing a roster 442 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 4: spot here. I think it also means that there's a 443 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 4: chance that Quentin Grimes comes back to Philadelphia since there's 444 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 4: a little bit less of a logjam in their back court. 445 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 4: There also getting this pick the Rockets first rounder, maybe 446 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 4: it allows them to continue shopping for some sort of 447 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 4: a big wing while Paul George is out. So I 448 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 4: think a decent trade for both sides. 449 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was kicking myself when I saw this news 450 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: break on Twitter from Schams because I meant to bring 451 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: up this morning on our podcast a tweet from Spike Eskin, 452 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: who obviously fallow the Sixers closely in the rights to 453 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: Turkey Sanchez podcast, and Spike had tweeted last night quote, 454 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 1: unless I'm missing something, Jared McCain did not touch the 455 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: floor in the second half until the game is over 456 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: with a minute left. What are we doing here? It's 457 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 1: a good win, six Ers beat the Warriors, first win 458 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: in a while, that looked like the early season Sixers. 459 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: But what are we doing here? So Spike, Spike noticed this, 460 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 1: what's going on with how we're playing Jared McCain. Why 461 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: we're not playing Jared McCain in this game last night 462 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: against the Warriors. And maybe this was all a part 463 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: of the reason why that he gets dealt out and 464 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: shipped to Okay see the next day. But yeah, it's 465 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: a nice move by okay See. No one's like it's 466 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: like the guy was like the front runner immediately for 467 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: Hookie of the Year and in a weird class. I 468 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: get that before the injury, and like, can you get 469 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 1: back to that level and if not exceed it, there'll 470 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: be a role for him in Oka see and you 471 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 1: can give Sga maybe another week or two off because 472 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: we did learn immediately after from Shaum's task that he's 473 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: got an abdominal strain. Sga does going to be reevaluated 474 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: in a week or so. It's probably nothing all that serious, 475 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: but I guess he's going to miss the All Star Game. 476 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: He's not going to play for the World team. So 477 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: elprin shng gun, you're in buddy, I'm assuming. 478 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to assume that Jay will not be 479 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 2: playing for Team International. Unfortunately, that that gives call him 480 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: Team International. I don't know why I call him. I 481 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 2: guess they're they're just the World team. But that gives 482 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 2: a f USA just more likeliness that they're going to 483 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 2: win the All Star Game without Shake Guil just Alexander 484 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 2: out there. But I do want to say when Shake 485 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 2: Gel Just Alexander plays, when Okac uh is out there 486 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 2: with their guys. They need a support player just to 487 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 2: create a little bit uh and that's what Jared McCain 488 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 2: can do. So that's the promising thing about Jared McCain 489 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 2: looking forward to that. Okay, see, I just got a 490 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 2: note he from my daughter. We are home, love you dead. Okay, 491 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 2: it's nice. 492 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: Good to breaking news show up's get that tweet. 493 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 2: Up, get it out. 494 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 4: I think it's good for Oka see to get a 495 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 4: guy who is like a variance kind of player, right 496 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,919 Speaker 4: like Jared McCain. Maybe he'll have five points one night. 497 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 4: They don't need very much from him, but he could 498 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 4: go for thirty five one night. And they don't necessarily 499 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 4: have a ton of those guys on the roster, especially 500 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 4: with Jadab working his way back from injury. So I 501 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 4: think it's good to have just like a guy that's 502 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 4: got a really high offensive ceiling, Like we've seen Aaron 503 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 4: Wiggins have a forty point game. 504 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 3: But you don't expect that out of a Dort or 505 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 3: a Wall. 506 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 4: It's like it's more unusual for them to have scoring outburst. 507 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 4: It's good to have another microwave scorer around, all right. 508 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: If you're just joining us here, on YouTube. Hello, Hello, Hello. 509 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: Anthony Davis traded to the Wizards in an eight player deal, 510 00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 1: Chris Middleton the real big name coming back to Alice 511 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: and two first round picks and three second rounders, and 512 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: then Jared McCain uh traded from the Sixers to the thunder. 513 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: Those were today's deals obviously had a lot. Ope, we 514 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: just lost test tests. 515 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 2: Yeahs here just taking care of business. Okay, this is 516 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 2: trade deadline week. 517 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: Anything can happen, absolutely, and uh we might be back 518 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 1: for all we know a little bit later here in 519 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 1: the day. It's Wednesday. Still, uh, yes, Like, who's the 520 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: next big name we're waiting on John Moran? Of course, 521 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: what happens there? Does he go to Miami or not? 522 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: Demonte Sabonis. I mean, there's been a lot of smoke there. 523 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,719 Speaker 1: He was getting linked to the Wizards. Actually that there 524 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: was some talk like is it a D or Sibonis? 525 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: Really not ev D. It was like, really, Sobonus's name 526 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 1: was being linked to them. Where does he goes he 527 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 1: go to the Raptors or not? And then yeah, obviously 528 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 1: the honest of it all doesn't happen because he told 529 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: somebody on a phone call, ericnam I want to be 530 00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: in Milwaukee. Maybe Tasses Tass's prediction will come true after all, 531 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: so we'll call it there.
