Yeah. 31 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 2: But before they fill out their rosters, we decided to 32 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: take a crack at it, and we posted this yesterday. 33 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: It's a lot of fun we had and Trey drafting 34 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 2: for Team Lebron, and then Lee and I were drafting 35 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 2: on behalf of Kevin Durant. A YouTube exclusive. So go 36 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 2: check this out, especially if there's some downtime today and 37 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 2: we're waiting on significant trades. Make sure you watch this 38 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,839 Speaker 2: and you can tell us who drafted the best All 39 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 2: Star team and what the best pick was and all that. 40 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 2: A lot of people were having fun in the comments. 41 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 2: I saw pretty I mean, I'll say, we didn't have 42 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 2: a formal poll up, I guess yet, but seeing a 43 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 2: lot of love for both Team Lebron you guys and 44 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 2: Team KD. A lot of people saying you guys did 45 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 2: better job with the starters. Maybe we did better jobs 46 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 2: than reserves, but people, we're almost fifty to fifty le again, 47 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 2: an informal poll by me this morning. It was pretty close. 48 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 3: That's pretty scientific though. I think if you got on 49 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 3: Twitter there and you just go on people's opinions. But yeah, 50 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 3: I think the Yannis pick was the one that probably 51 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 3: tilted in their favorite touch, but we might up for it. 52 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 2: I think we had a nice run with our reserves. 53 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 2: But anyway, go check that out. It was again a 54 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 2: lot of fun our our twenty twenty two NBA All 55 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: Star Game mock draft. We do have some minor trades 56 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: to break down here. They're not sexy guys in fact, 57 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 2: in the dock that we all share, I put stupid 58 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: trades all right, because we're just waiting on some biggies again. 59 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 2: But let's get into them. We got time to kill 60 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 2: the Jazz acquired Nikhil Alexander Walker yesterday, sending Joe Ingles 61 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 2: to the Blazers in a three way trade with the Spurs. 62 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 2: Those are the names you really need to know. There's 63 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 2: some other names being bounced around. You got Hughes going 64 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: to the Blazers, and you got Larry Wancho, Hernan Gomez 65 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: going to the Jazz and Satara Anthy going to the Spurs. 66 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 2: And then there's some second round picks. But the key 67 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 2: players here Ingles Contract going to the Blazers, and the 68 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: Blazers who just got Nikill Alexander Walker task going to 69 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: the Utah Jazz. What do you think? 70 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 4: Well, I'm glad we're not forcing some James Harden dialogue 71 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 4: here to start the trade deadline show, because that would 72 00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 4: be forcing it. 73 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 2: We'll get to it. We'll get to it. 74 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 4: But the talk out there is that Darryl Morey and 75 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 4: Sean Marks, the gms of the respective teams there haven't 76 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 4: gotten into a actual dialogue. 77 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: I don't know about that. Where's a deal zone or not. 78 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,679 Speaker 4: WOAJ says they have not engaged in serious dialogue anyway. 79 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 2: He says, we're not going to start show. 80 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: No, we're not doing it. We're not done. 81 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 4: We're talking about Nikkeil Alexander Walker. I don't like this 82 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 4: for the Blazers unless they got something else coming down 83 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 4: the pike immediately. Because the Jazz get the best player 84 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 4: in this deal in Nikhil Alexander Walker for a thirty 85 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 4: four year old Joe Ingles who was injured. Alexander Walker 86 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 4: sure not a name on a lot of people's radar 87 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 4: if you're a casual fan, but third year NBA player. 88 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 4: He was great for Canada last summer. He was great 89 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 4: in April and March last year for the Pelicans, but 90 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 4: he hasn't shown it this year. Big Roles started the 91 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 4: season all right, had a few good games, look like 92 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 4: he could be the most improved player. Then he fell off. 93 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 4: I don't get it for the Blazers. After they traded 94 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 4: CJ McCollum the day before their nine year guard twenty 95 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 4: points per game for the first for the last seven years, 96 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 4: they get Nikhil Alexander Walker as the best player from 97 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 4: that deal. They get Josh Hart and a first round 98 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 4: pick from the New Orleans Pelicans and then immediately trade 99 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 4: Nikhil Alexander Walker. 100 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:17,559 Speaker 1: So what are they doing? 101 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 4: Are they just getting cap space and hoping that someone's 102 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 4: going to come to Portland. They don't have a great 103 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 4: track record of people coming to Portland. We've looked at 104 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 4: the last decade. Probably Evan Turner is the biggest name. 105 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 4: Or are they getting some space here for another move today. 106 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 4: Jeremy Grant is the big rumor from the Detroit Pistons. 107 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 4: But it doesn't seem enticing for Damian Lillard at this point. 108 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,239 Speaker 4: To trade CJ. McCollum and then trade a young player 109 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 4: and by traded that young player Niki Alexander Walker doesn't 110 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,239 Speaker 4: seem like they're acquiring young assets. They're just getting cap space. 111 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 4: So I don't think this is very promising unless they 112 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 4: get something today, because Dame's got to be sitting there 113 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 4: and saying unlike he can't he can't be happy at 114 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 4: this point, and that's who you're building around. It sure 115 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,559 Speaker 4: looks like it doesn't look like a tear down right now, 116 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 4: but that could change in the next three months. I mean, 117 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 4: I could see them trading Damian Lillard. 118 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: Is what I'm saying. 119 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 4: If they're trading away young players. 120 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 5: He's eligible for one hundred million dollars two year extension 121 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 5: this summer in July. 122 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: He's not going to be asking out today. 123 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 4: I don't think, Oh no, I'm not saying today, but 124 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 4: in the summer, I could see him asking out, he's 125 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 4: thirty two years old, who's he going to play with 126 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 4: on this team? 127 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 5: For whoever they sign Harvey Grant, he was a Blazer, right, 128 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 5: isn't that Jeremy Grant's dad. Yes, So he has a 129 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 5: connection to the city, is what I'm saying. 130 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, I'm just. 131 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 2: Telling you that Jeremy Grant's gonna come save the Blazers. 132 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 2: This is what we're at now with Jimmy Lillard. You 133 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 2: can't be serious. No, I'm not saying that's that's serious. Obviously. 134 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 2: What they're going to do is tank the rest of 135 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 2: the season. 136 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, which is a good move. 137 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 5: They got Josh Hart, So I don't think Nikkeil Alexander 138 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 5: Walker was going to play because it's going to be Lillard, 139 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 5: Simon's and hert. 140 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: That's your guard rotation right there. 141 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 5: So Nikkeil Alexander Walker, who has had a struggle of 142 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 5: a season here, move him for some cap space. Maybe 143 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 5: they move Nurkic today have some more cap space. They 144 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 5: can absorb a bad deal if they wanted to. They've 145 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 5: got flexibility, and Damian Lillard wants to make fifty million 146 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 5: dollars for two separate seasons. So there's no chance he's 147 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 5: going to ask out, and I don't think the Blazers 148 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 5: are going to trade him until he asks out because 149 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 5: they have trouble bringing in free agents. The only way 150 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 5: they can have free agents is if they have a 151 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 5: lure there. So you start with Lillard, then you add 152 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 5: Jeremy Grant, and then maybe somebody else wants to sign up, 153 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 5: and then you have a rebuild right there, a younger rebuild. 154 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 155 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 3: The other issue there though, is that who is that 156 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 3: free agent because it's not a huge crop right now 157 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: of you know, franchise altering players out there. But if 158 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 3: if that's the plan and that's how they're going to execute, 159 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 3: or that's what they're going to attempt to do, then 160 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 3: clearly they want to keep Damien Little in that case. 161 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 3: But for this season, we don't even know when he's 162 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 3: coming back. For one, he's not, he's not well, no, 163 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 3: who knows, who know? Maybe he does, I'm not sure. 164 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 3: But listen, if they're supposed to take they didn't do 165 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: a very good job of it last night. 166 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: It was a very impress It's not their fault playing 167 00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: the Lakers no. 168 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 3: But it was you see Chauncey Billets there, They're not like, 169 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 3: all right, we want to do everything we can to tank. 170 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 3: They played a good, hard, competitive game and they got 171 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 3: away with a very good victory. So it's weird because Portland, again, 172 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 3: you don't have that track record. You don't even know 173 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 3: if Joe Cronin is going to be the full time 174 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 3: GM making those decisions next season. So I think the 175 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 3: instruction from head offices get us under the attacks, clear 176 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 3: some contracts, and if you can get some picks, then 177 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 3: we'll deal with this in the summer. 178 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: As for nik Kile Alexander Walker, I mean, again, of 179 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 2: all the players here that have sort of gone through 180 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: with Ingles being injured, he is the biggest name. Has flashes, 181 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 2: seen flashes like we've seen from him. Like you said, 182 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 2: they're tasks. Do you like what he can maybe give 183 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: Utah off of the bench. 184 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's another guy who can go out there. We 185 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 3: know he likes to shoot, so that's fine. They do 186 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 3: have a pretty good solid bench rotation anyway, So I'm 187 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 3: not sure how many minutes there are going to be 188 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 3: there for him, but if they went out and got him, 189 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 3: I think they have an idea they want to play. 190 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 3: Mike Conley's very good, can be a little bit injury 191 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 3: prone and also getting a little bit older. We've also 192 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 3: seen Donovan Mitchell deal with injuries, so it's probably more 193 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 3: an insurance police see than anything else. But I lock 194 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 3: him as a player and he's gone to a good 195 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 3: situation there, so he's gonna be able to get a 196 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 3: chance to play with good players and learn more about 197 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: the game, and that's good for the. 198 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: Jazz, right And we don't know if the Jazz are 199 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 2: going to be making another move today too. You know, 200 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: Jordan Clarkson's names come up a lot in rumors, though 201 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 2: it was feeling like they're moving Ingles or they're moving Clarkson, 202 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: and they've already done the Ingles move, so maybe Clarkson's 203 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: obviously going to continue to come off the bench and 204 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: fire away. But that's sort of what Nikhil Alexander Walker 205 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: is gonna get a chance to do here now too. 206 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 2: So they got two of them. 207 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 5: Do you think that Nikil Alexander Walker is going to 208 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 5: play over Jordan Clarkson though I doubt it. That to 209 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 5: me is why this is kind of a weird move 210 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 5: actually from the Jazz because I thought they would trade 211 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 5: Joe Ingles contract away. That makes a ton of sense. 212 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 5: But even he said, if they're able to bring somebody 213 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 5: in to help the team, I'm not going to be 214 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 5: sour about it. I don't necessarily know that Kayle Alexander 215 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 5: Walker really helps the team to win now this year, 216 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 5: which is completely the point for the Jazz. 217 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it would have been nicer to get a defensive guy, 218 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 4: for sure, but you pick up a prospect, pick up 219 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 4: a prospect. 220 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if there was a better option out there. 221 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 4: I mean, the Trent Force has also been playing really 222 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 4: well for them, and so that's who they're going to 223 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 4: go with. Yeah, yeah, it'd be nicer to see a 224 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 4: better player, but I would pick up a prospect if 225 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 4: I could pick up a prospect. 226 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 2: Well, you thought that trade was stupid. The thunder, the 227 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 2: thunder of trading a pick for Miami Heat capslocks on 228 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 2: Heat forward kazy Akpalla. We called it, Casey's been traded 229 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 2: and he's going to Oka see the Heat are going 230 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: to receive a twenty twenty six second round pick. Yes, 231 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: the thunder of giving up a pick because I got 232 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 2: a lot of them and they've agreed to amend the 233 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 2: conditions on a twenty twenty five first round pick owed 234 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 2: to Okac, potentially giving Miami here some more flexibility in 235 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 2: trading picks. Break it down for me, TK, who's the 236 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 2: winner in this deal? What's the trade grades? That's a 237 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 2: win win trade? 238 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: Huh? 239 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 5: Quite honestly, that's a win win trade right here. The 240 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 5: Heat get a chance to trade a first round pick 241 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 5: this year. They've got a chance to win the title 242 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 5: right now. So maybe adding somebody helps Kyle Anderson, Duncan 243 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 5: Robinson make it happen. That also feels to me like 244 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 5: they're just in acquisition mode, as the Heat usually are. 245 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 5: So I think this is great. They gave up Kazyok Paula, 246 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 5: which is literally a who have you seen Kazyok Paula play? 247 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 3: A minute? 248 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? He's skinny? 249 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: All right? 250 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 5: Nice, excellent, And that's the thunder. Look at what they did. 251 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 5: Too many picks on the dance floor, spread out in 252 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 5: the pick. They didn't need four first round picks in 253 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 5: twenty twenty three. Now they've pushed it back to twenty 254 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 5: twenty five, and at that point maybe the Heat had 255 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 5: finally fallen off. Guess what that never actually happens, except 256 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 5: for that one year. That one year they fell off 257 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 5: and they were able to hop up and get Dwayne 258 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 5: Wade in a pick and then he was He went 259 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 5: down for a year, and then they jumped up to 260 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 5: number two. Unfortunately they picked Michael Beasley. Oops, didn't totally 261 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,719 Speaker 5: work out. But the Heat don't tank Ferry off, And 262 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 5: that being said, you have a better chance of this 263 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 5: pick being good in twenty twenty five when Butler's thirty five, 264 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 5: when Kyle Lowry's one hundred and seventy five years old, 265 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 5: and Bam out of Bayo is the main guy there. 266 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 5: So good stuff for both teams for a trade that 267 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 5: nobody cares about. Even WOJU and Shams didn't tweet it. Yeah, 268 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 5: this is just a release the Heat. 269 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 2: Hey, we got breaking news. Let's see if we get 270 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 2: any engagement on this tweet anything to add to that 271 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: breakdown there? 272 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 3: No, I just got to laugh out of seeing the 273 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 3: press release with the hate holing caps because I hadn't 274 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 3: really noticed it until you pointed out which one of. 275 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 2: You wi's asses retweeted that with at j E and 276 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 2: the Caplocks skeets. I thought it was Trey, I laughed. 277 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 2: I missed it the first time. I thought that's very funny. 278 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 2: I was just happy that. Yeah, casey Akpolla was on 279 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 2: the the Trade Guys to watch when we did that 280 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: podcast last week. Yeah for the real sicko because it 281 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 2: was a you know, it was a it was a 282 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 2: tax move working the books there. But yeah, the pick 283 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: coming back, and like Trey said, maybe there's with that 284 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: that the amending of the one could be included in 285 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 2: a in another deal. Maybe Miami has something up their sleep. Okay, 286 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 2: so that's all we have right now. What's your plan 287 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: for today?

That sounds like 318 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 4: Matt Austen's actual plan for social media these days, because 319 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 4: he's off social media. Yeah, because he doesn't want to 320 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 4: be on it, but he gets sent emails with texts, 321 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 4: with tweets, like he gets sent tweets from people. So 322 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 4: it's like he's not on social media, but he is. 323 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: He lost of the best. Every tweets, every tweet before 324 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 2: that happens. Harry's hoot camp is that's gold. That's that's 325 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 2: very funny. All right, Well, while we wait on the trades. Well, 326 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 2: you see if you have Harry's or Berry's email coming 327 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 2: into your spam account. We did have some debuts last night, 328 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 2: some guys that have been traded earlier this week making 329 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: their debuts with the new team, so let's talk about them. 330 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: We had Garland returning for the Caves. He scored twenty 331 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: seven to lead Cleveland past the Spurs, but it was 332 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 2: Karris lavertz Cleveland Cavaliers deep US. So what do you 333 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 2: think of this game and specifically Lavert's first game here? 334 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 3: Pretty good overall. Came off the bench, came out, made 335 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 3: a nice pass straight away. I think when you're the 336 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 3: new guys, like you have a pickup run, you don't 337 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: want to be that guy just comes out, starts firing away, 338 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 3: make a few passes, get your teammates involved, and he did, 339 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 3: and he hit a coro there for a three. So 340 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 3: his final stat line not too bad eleven points, only 341 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 3: two assists, but I dug a little bit deeper because 342 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 3: watching it he had a chance for a lot more there, 343 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 3: and he had eight potential assists there according to the 344 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: NBA ST's no secondary assist. I thought he might have 345 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 3: had one or two of those. 346 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 2: But the point he traded to the Utah Jazz come on. 347 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 3: The point is he was out there trying to move around, 348 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 3: but he also got a couple of shots and he 349 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: knocked those in. And I think that's what the Cavs won, 350 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: is like, Okay, we know you can shoot and square 351 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 3: or go out there and get into your little spots, 352 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 3: enter into your rhythm there. And I thought he did 353 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 3: a very good job of that, and defensively he was 354 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 3: active as well, and this was overall a very good win. 355 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 3: Here by the Caves. Now, Darius Garland was the star 356 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 3: coming back. He was great. He was having some Chris 357 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 3: Poorly type moves there, sort of zigzag and across the paint, 358 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 3: the little pull up, little step back mid ranger. He 359 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 3: was fantastic. And this one finishes with twenty seven points 360 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 3: and the six assists. So this was a very very 361 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 3: promising start here for Cleveland with this new acquisition because Sexton, 362 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 3: obviously they're not getting anything out of him right now, 363 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 3: Rubio wasn't able to play. You just picked up a 364 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: guy who seems to slot in very very nicely with 365 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 3: what they want. I expect he's going to stay coming 366 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 3: off the bench, and I expect he's perfectly fine with 367 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 3: that because he knows he's going to be able to 368 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 3: get his chance to shoot and to score and to 369 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 3: set up other guys and play the game he wants 370 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 3: to play. So if you're Cleveland right now, you're thinking 371 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 3: this is pretty pretty nice for us. 372 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 2: It was a good debut. I would agree with that. 373 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: Anything to add trep not really twelve for fifteen though. 374 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 2: For Darius Garland, that's incredible. Man. This guy is tuning 375 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 2: up for that skills challenge. He can, like the Caves 376 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 2: win right here. 377 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 5: Would be interesting to see if they can make one 378 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 5: more move today because they started Dean Wade last night. 379 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 5: Seems to be the place they could certainly upgrade, and 380 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 5: they've still got Sexton's contract around to maybe move something 381 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 5: and just pick up kind of like a three to 382 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 5: four kind of guy. It's not obviously going to be 383 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 5: a big time player, but it would help. 384 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 4: I love Carrisilvert coming off the bench. But then he 385 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 4: can finish games with that, with that great starting unit, 386 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 4: because they do lack a guy who can finish at 387 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 4: the end of games. Even though Darius Garland is fantastic, 388 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 4: they just need one more score. 389 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 2: And he And there was a play in last night's game. 390 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 2: It was still like a close game, Spurs were hanging 391 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 2: around and Lavert just made something out of nothing, like 392 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 2: he hit a very difficult like sort of fade away 393 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 2: around the paint area. And that's immediately what I was thinking. 394 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 2: Tests Like, we kept hearing about how the cast he 395 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 2: needs somebody else to help Garland create something late clock situation, 396 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 2: close game when teams are like, you know, doubling up 397 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: on Garland or really trying to get the ball out 398 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 2: of his hands, and that was like a perfect example. 399 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, yeah, that's yeah, that's what everybody 400 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 2: was talking about. So if he can do that and 401 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 2: pick his spots and that's huge. 402 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, And people have labeled him as a chucker and 403 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 4: a hog in the past, but on this team, you 404 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 4: can be a chucker in a hog to some degree. 405 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 4: Jared Allen's not asking for the ball. I'vean Mobley, the 406 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 4: rook is playing off everybody else. Larry Markin is also waiting. 407 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 4: Isaac Kora was not really creating his own shots. So yeah, 408 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 4: Garland and whoever his backcourt made is at the end 409 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 4: of the game is being asked to do that. So 410 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 4: they Yeah, they looked like one game. No worries for 411 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 4: this Cavs team because there was some worries. I maybe 412 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 4: he's going to ruin this chemistry. You know, the Calves 413 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 4: are like the Grizzlies light They've got this thing going 414 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 4: on here. 415 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, he fed in well. 416 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 2: I love those jerseys they were wearing last night too, 417 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 2: the maroon ones. He just looked like it was perfect. 418 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 2: He's fit in perfectly. It looked like he'd been playing 419 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 2: with them like alt. Maybe it's because he played with 420 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 2: Jared Allen for a couple of season because he had 421 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 2: nice oop to him too, so the connection was there. 422 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 2: So yeah, really good stuff from him and his debut 423 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 2: with the Cleveland Cavaliers. We had another one last night. 424 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 2: Sabonis with the double double leads the Kings past the 425 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 2: Timberwolves one thirty two, one nineteen. These guys had just 426 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 2: played but Sacramento one to zero in the Sabonis era 427 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 2: and Trey, I know you were tweeting about it. We 428 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 2: already have the nickname. They already did it easy. 429 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 5: The Fox, the Ox, and the Black Falcon. What a 430 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 5: big three. This was the best debut of the night. 431 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 5: This was a huge win for the Kings. Incredibly fun game. 432 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 5: I definitely haven't seen every game that they've played at 433 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 5: the Golden One Center. I think this is the most 434 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 5: game they've ever had. 435 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 2: Though. 436 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 5: The crowd was going absolutely bonkers. I was in iverson 437 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 5: mode and I. 438 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: Was loving it. 439 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 5: It's just one game, but this worked out exactly the 440 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 5: way the Kings wanted it to. Sabonis was great. He 441 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 5: was putting pressure on the rim, he was hitting the glass, 442 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 5: he was tough, he was moving the ball to shooters. 443 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 5: I thought Harrison Barnes was a big time beneficiary last night. 444 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 5: Thirty points on eleven shots. That's wild stuff. Four for 445 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 5: five from three and then twenty seven points for Fox, 446 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 5: who actually had some juice at the end of the game. 447 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 5: He scored six points in the final four and a 448 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 5: half minutes as Sacramento finished on a seventeen to four 449 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 5: run after things. 450 00:19:58,320 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 2: Were tied at one fifteen. 451 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 5: They could have easily watch this game, but DDE Iron 452 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 5: Fox was one hundred percent into it. 453 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 2: I saw him smiling last night. 454 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: Wow. 455 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 5: I saw him give Demonta Sabonis. 456 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 2: A hug last year. 457 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 5: This was like the best vibes the Kings have ever had. 458 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 5: This was a perfect debut for them. Davion Mitchell also 459 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 5: a good game eighteen seven and seven. Jeremy Lamb was 460 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 5: on fire kind of fourteen six and five. He actually 461 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 5: did hit a three. At one point He's like, oh, 462 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 5: finally I made it three. So they only ended up 463 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 5: getting one Jeremy Lamb, but at least he was good 464 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 5: last night. 465 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we did you think of Sabonis there slotting into 466 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 2: this King's roster and Mitchell getting more minutes there along side. 467 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 4: Looked great, fabulous for one night. Fabulous. The end of 468 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 4: this game, I would deem it an zero to one 469 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,160 Speaker 4: for the Minnesota Timberwolves like a loss for the Timberwlves. 470 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 1: More than a win for the Kings. 471 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 4: They were lazy and allowed that run there at the end, 472 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 4: that seventeen to four run disappointing for the For the Wolves, 473 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 4: this is a game you should be winning. This is 474 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 4: a game where you should be pulling away from the 475 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 4: Lakers and all the teams behind you there in the 476 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 4: play in tournament. So again, close game at the end, 477 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 4: and then did nothing there to close out the game. 478 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: What do you think, clear, here come the Kings. 479 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: There we go. 480 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 3: We said, yeah, we said yesterday the Wolves have avoided 481 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 3: being the Kings. Yeah, and then they go out and 482 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 3: lose to the Kings. But no, Look, you've got a 483 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 3: fox and a Lamb on the same team. Yeh, that's 484 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: wild chemistry you're trying to build. 485 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 2: This is that would be dangerous? 486 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 3: Well you would think so, but maybe not. Maybe it's 487 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 3: the reverse in the human world. I don't know. But honestly, 488 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 3: like the Kings have been the Kings have been getting 489 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 3: the Kings have been getting lit up for giving away Halliburton. 490 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 3: But Bonus again slots into that team straight away, passes 491 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 3: a ball, can get inside and give them a real 492 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:37,959 Speaker 3: presence because they've got a lot of bigs, but no 493 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 3: one who does what he can do for them. So 494 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 3: I hope this works out for Sacramento. It would be great. 495 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 3: I mean you know, it didn't seem like Halliburton was 496 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 3: the smart move to make. But if it just unlocks 497 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 3: something and maybe Fox gets some chemistry going here with the. 498 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 2: Bonus if it unlocks Foxy is the huge part of 499 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: this equation. 500 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 5: I'm old enough to remember when Dieron Fox was a 501 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 5: King's successful draft pick, full time All star. Yeah, it 502 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 5: feels like many moons ago, but it was honestly great 503 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 5: to see him smiling during the game. 504 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 3: It's like, this guy's a beast the Ox and you mentioned, 505 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 3: you know, hal I was taught in the end. Usually 506 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 3: that's when the Kings are the ones who just fall apart. 507 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 3: They can't close games out, and they go out there 508 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 3: and get a very nice finish against a team that 509 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,120 Speaker 3: is playing well and a team that has got real 510 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 3: expectations for this season now, So good on them. 511 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 2: And I know we'll get to it a little bit 512 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 2: later and we start looking at some of the rumors 513 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 2: going around there with some of these teams. I would 514 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 2: expect Rashaun Holmes to be moved here today and possibly 515 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 2: Marvin Bagley the third two. But Holmes is now like, 516 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: well he's out of the starting lineup. That guy generally 517 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 2: started for the Sacramento Kings, and he signed his deal 518 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 2: and it's not crazy money, but I could see teams 519 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 2: wanting him. You know, the Raptors been maybe looking for 520 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 2: a backup big. There's other teams that need a big. 521 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 2: So you know, Rashawn Holmes I would have on the 522 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 2: list to be possibly moved here today. Now it's Sibonis. 523 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 2: You know, looks so great in this first game. 524 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 525 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, Sabonis and him, it's almost like Sabonis Miles Turner 526 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 4: Part two. 527 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: They're going to clog the lane together. 528 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:05,360 Speaker 2: Other games last. 529 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 5: Night, Well, hold on a second, isn't the bigger question 530 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 5: with the Kings if they're going to trade Harrison Barnes. Yeah, 531 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 5: but now they're saying they're not going to. And if 532 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 5: they're really trying to make the play in tournament this year, 533 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 5: which they are in which they should. 534 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 2: Be trying to, I kind of think they should. I 535 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 2: think they'll keep him here today. 536 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 5: He's expiring next year, so you'll be able to trade 537 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 5: him next year. And if you he kind of look 538 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 5: like the perfect fit arounds Sabonis last night right able 539 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 5: to kind of play the stretch for sort of roll. 540 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 2: Up you you would have to be blown away from 541 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 2: an offer from one of the contenders that look at 542 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 2: Harrison Barnes and go, wow, we had him, we could 543 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 2: win a title, and I just I don't think it's 544 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 2: going to be there today. 545 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: So I'm with you. 546 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 2: I think he stays, and I think it's a homes 547 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 2: or a bag layer or something like that. Possibly get smooth. 548 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 2: The other games. Last night, DeRozan and Vucci Baby lead 549 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: the Bulls past the struggling Hornets. I think they've lost 550 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 2: six in a row now. One nine was the score 551 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,479 Speaker 2: of that game. Siakam and the Raptors top the Thunder 552 00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 2: one seventeen ninety eight for their seventh straight win. Raps 553 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 2: continuing to climb the Eastern Conference standings. Jazz shut down 554 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: the Warriors won eleven to eighty five. Believe it or not, 555 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 2: this was a close game right until the end of 556 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 2: the third quarter and then it was over. So they 557 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 2: stopped the Warriors nine game win streak. And then Anthony 558 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 2: Simons you alluded to it had twenty nine Blazers rallied 559 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 2: or held on, I guess for the victory over the 560 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 2: Lakers one oh seven to one to five. Task any 561 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 2: of those four games you wanted to highlight. 562 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, how can we not talk about the Blazers 563 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 4: and the Lakers. Blazers, Yeah, unfortunately they won for them, 564 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 4: but you know, they definitely want to get worse this year, 565 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 4: and it's it's happening slowly. But yeah, they played a 566 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 4: Lakers team that actually scored really, really well against them. 567 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 4: They shot fifty five percent and still lost somehow because 568 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 4: the Blazers were getting offensive rebounds and they turned the 569 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 4: Lakers turned it over a ton. I think the Lakers 570 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 4: just they're just looking at this trade deadline, and I 571 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 4: think it showed in their play to some degree because 572 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 4: Anthony Davis only shot the ball eleven times, which is weird. 573 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 4: The game before only ten times, and then and him 574 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 4: and Bron don't do the postgame press conference. They send 575 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 4: out Taylor Horton Tucker to do it. 576 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 2: So that's because his last one. 577 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 4: I don't think so. I think they're just ready to 578 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 4: make a move. I think they're they're allowing the defense 579 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 4: to the I think what I'm saying about Anthony Davis 580 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 4: not shooting is he's not taking upon himself to win games. 581 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 4: I think they're just trying to highlight that, Hey, our 582 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 4: team stinks let's let's make a move, baby, we got 583 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 4: to make a move Fronto west right. 584 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 2: Now didn't play in this game. I guess back tightness 585 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 2: and that that had Twitter going crazy of course last night, 586 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 2: Oh he's not playing. What does that mean? They're keeping 587 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 2: him out because's gonna be traded? But uh, what do 588 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 2: you think of this game? 589 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 3: Harrison Fagan had a great tweet off who're saying they 590 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 3: can't judge? Just like his team until westbrookies back. I 591 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 3: thought that was great. But Dennis Smith, Dennis Smith clearly 592 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 3: got the memo there at the end, took an awful 593 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 3: shot with plenty of time left, didn't need to do that. 594 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,439 Speaker 3: They had a weird line seven points, eleven assists and 595 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 3: six steals in the game, but nearly gave it. 596 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 2: One of tho steals was huge. Yeah, I think he 597 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 2: lebron with a bad. 598 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 3: Time, Yes it was, but yeah, honestly, this was sort 599 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 3: of like, you know, organizations are the ones who tank. 600 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 3: The players don't go out there and go, well, we 601 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 3: don't care, We've got no pride. They play hard and 602 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 3: they did. And Chauncey billups on the side as well. 603 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 3: It's been a rough year for him. You could see 604 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 3: him trying to get his guys to at least play 605 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 3: with some passion and some competitiveness in there, and they did. 606 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 3: And Anthony Simons, you can see this is clearly this 607 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 3: is the direction they want to go. They want to 608 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 3: give him the big contract. He went out there last 609 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 3: night hit some huge threes for them. He's a good player. 610 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 3: I mean, look, they're not going back to competing for 611 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,479 Speaker 3: a championship straight away, but I think that's the direction 612 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 3: they're going in. So impressive stuff really, and the Lakers, 613 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 3: I mean they just look, they look on defense like 614 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,479 Speaker 3: they just don't even want to play defense. They just 615 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 3: there's so many times guys just cut in and score. 616 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 3: There was a dunk that Nurkich got and Lamar Hurt 617 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 3: on the call said, a great quality play draw by 618 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 3: Chauncey Billups and it was Lebron on the play arms 619 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 3: down like this, the boar just goes right past him 620 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 3: into Nurkic. So guys just aren't competing defensively. Frank Vogel 621 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 3: is probably going to pay the price at some point. 622 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 3: But if guys defending, there's nothing a coach you. 623 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 2: Can do anything to add to this. Blazers Lakers game, 624 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: which did have the feel at the end of a 625 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: bad pickup game, not a lot of defense being played, 626 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 2: some bonehead mistakes from both teams, but Blazers pulled out. 627 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 5: I think this is the worst loss of the season 628 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 5: for any team, to be quite honest, even worse than 629 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 5: the Thunder, losing by seventy three points. Kelgian Blevins outscored 630 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 5: three Lakers starters. Anthony Davis, like you said, took eleven shots, 631 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 5: and Lebron after the game he did do postgame, he said, 632 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 5: I just want to have some wine and go to sleep. 633 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 5: They didn't want to play this game. They want trades 634 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 5: to happen, they want Vogel gone, They're checked out. It's 635 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 5: basically like we got to figure out something between Lebron 636 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 5: and Ad good luck. I'm not sure the Lakers are 637 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 5: going to finish over five hundred this year. Wow, here's 638 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 5: their next seven games, Golden State Utah, the Lakers, the 639 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 5: Pelic or the Clippers. The Pelic they are always playing resolve. 640 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it to wow. Who would win a game 641 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 2: between the Lakers and Lakers right now? Which team gets Westbrook? 642 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 5: The other team wins Golden State Utah Clippers Pelicans, Dallas 643 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 5: Clippers again, Golden State again. All of those are on 644 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 5: national TV three and four at the best. I would 645 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 5: think that drops you for another game below five hundred. 646 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 5: Ten of their last fifteen. 647 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 2: Games are on the road. 648 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 5: The Lakers might miss the playoffs completely, not the play 649 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 5: in tournament. They might miss the playoffs. I think the reasonable. 650 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: I think they'd rather play on the road. Everybody hates 651 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: them at home. Lebron likes playing on the road at home. 652 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 2: They lost on the road last night. 653 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 5: I noticed if five steals in the fourth quarter for 654 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,719 Speaker 5: Dennis Smith Junior, maybe they should trade for him. 655 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 2: He plays defense. 656 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, whether or not they drop out, they're 657 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 3: basically four games ahead of the Blazes right now. Now 658 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 3: what are the Blazers doing. We think they're not trying 659 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 3: to win, so they probably drop down. The Kings probably 660 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 3: are trying to win, and they're are five and a 661 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 3: half games ahead of them the Lakers, so they would 662 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 3: really have to fall apart completely here. 663 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 2: But you know, I think you were tweeting about vocals 664 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 2: chances of surviving this. I mean, is he is he 665 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 2: going to be let out to pasture here? 666 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: Well? 667 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 4: I think the players in the locker room just want 668 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 4: to change. So if they're a big trade. 669 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 2: Right, that'll change it in a week or two. 670 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: Oh for sure. Yeah. 671 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 4: I think I think if they changes the chemistry in 672 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 4: that locker room, they yeah, they don't like playing with 673 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 4: the roster currently. They're all asking for a change in 674 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 4: the the chemistry going on, the camaraderie. And if that 675 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 4: doesn't happen, then I think Frank gets acts. I think 676 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 4: they just need something or they're going to give the 677 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 4: players something. They're gonna give bron An eighty something and 678 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 4: it could be Frank. 679 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:26,239 Speaker 3: Uh. 680 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 2: Well, we'll talk about the Lakers and potential moves they 681 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 2: can make and what they're doing with Westbrook and you 682 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 2: know reports that they don't want to attach that twenty 683 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 2: twenty seven first round pick to make it happen and 684 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 2: all this. Well, let's take a break though here. Any 685 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 2: new news, any new rumors, any new trades. 686 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 3: Patrick Beverly has got tweet off the year they're going 687 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 3: right now, it's. 688 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, say it, say it. We'll take a first 689 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 2: break when we come. 690 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: I think I think Michael Lee might have tweet of 691 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: the year. 692 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 2: He's got tweeted the night later. So before we get 693 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 2: to tweet twee the night, We'll be right back and 694 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 2: talk about all the latest trade deadline updates and rumors, 695 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 2: stock anywhere. You said you had a good tweet Prosley, 696 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 2: and you weren't kidding. Patrick Beverly just decided to tweet 697 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 2: here today on trade deadline to day, and he says, quote, 698 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 2: I remember when somebody said all I do is run 699 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 2: around and I trick y'all a crying laughy emoji. Well, 700 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 2: my boy is the real magician this year. It's only 701 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 2: let the people know who Patrick Beverly is sub tweeting here. 702 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 3: He's referring to Russell Westbrook there in Los Angeles after 703 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 3: they've had quite a history those two over the years, 704 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 3: and Russell Westbrook at one game after a game said, 705 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 3: you know, Patrick Beverly's tricking you all. All he does 706 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 3: is run around out there, And well, Patrick's got his 707 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 3: revenge today. Really, he's waited for this moment and he's 708 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 3: delivered a pretty high quality tweet there. Patrick, Man, I 709 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 3: feel so many conflicting emotions. I think he brings so 710 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 3: much goods stuff to his team and now he's doing 711 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 3: it on social media. But I can imagine him now 712 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 3: in the next game, having some silly turnover the Cossi's 713 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 3: team a game as well. So anyway, well done, Patrick, 714 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 3: you got it. 715 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, let's start trying to make our way through 716 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 2: some of these deadline rumors and the little buzz that 717 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 2: we're here, and let's let's get to the Ben Simmons 718 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: for James Harden. The possibility now like conflicting reports, This 719 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 2: is honestly where we're at with this. WOJE was saying, 720 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 2: this is not really happening. They're not really talking, and 721 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: many other people, including Brian Windhorst, who works for the 722 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 2: same organization as woj is saying, no, they're you know, 723 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 2: they're in the deal zone. I think he said, not 724 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 2: the due zone. They're in the deal zone. And that 725 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 2: is you know, they're obviously talking and trying to figure 726 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 2: out it seems to like there'd be like a little 727 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 2: hang up on who the other piece is going back 728 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 2: to Brooklyn would be you know, is it a Curry, 729 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 2: is it a Maxi for crying out loud? Is it 730 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: a Thible? Stuff like that. So yeah, and we also 731 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 2: had the Philadelphia Inquirers Keith POMPEII. He's reporting that Harden 732 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 2: does indeed want to be traded to Philadelphia. So that 733 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 2: is confirming what Windhorse is saying, but that doesn't mean 734 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 2: the deal is imminent and that they are you know, 735 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 2: they're having these informal talks, but they're bickering to use 736 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 2: Keith Pompey's words over these secondary pieces. And then we 737 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 2: had this whole thing from Woes this morning which was 738 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 2: really weird, where he said, quote this is Woj's tweet. 739 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 2: Although Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden wants a trade to 740 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 2: the Philadelphia seventy six ers, he has resisted making that 741 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: formal request out of fear of the public backlash that 742 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 2: would come with asking out of a second franchise in 743 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 2: consecutive seasons. End quote. Hm, So that's a weird one. 744 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 2: What do you think? 745 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 4: Well, I think all these things could be true because 746 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 4: Windhorse says they're in the deal zone. Woes says there 747 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 4: hasn't been serious dialogue. So it's all your definition, right, 748 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 4: I mean, are they if they're talking, but wo says 749 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 4: they're not a serious there haven't been serious dialogue. I 750 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 4: mean Woja's definition just might be we got to cross 751 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 4: the t's and dot the eyes. 752 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: We're there. 753 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 4: But you know, what Windhorse is saying, what Pompey are 754 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 4: both saying, is that they're talking. So I suppose they're talking, 755 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 4: and so they're I mean, that's more than that's actually 756 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 4: actually more substantive than anything. I don't know, I believe 757 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 4: those the last few weeks, Like if everyone is saying 758 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 4: they're talking, it sure seems like they are actually talking. 759 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 4: Now that the part about Harden going to the front 760 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 4: office and informally formally whatever asking for a trade very funny. 761 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 4: That's where my tweet of the year came in. Michael Lee, 762 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 4: great writer, tweeted he got a text from a former 763 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 4: NBA player this morning that said, quote, Harden gonna have 764 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 4: a hard time getting a former teammate to introduce him 765 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 4: at his Hall of Fame induction. That's that's why you 766 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 4: just got to. 767 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 2: Get fire in their best material here Deadline. I guess 768 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 2: he's got a lot of engagement, a lot of eyeballs 769 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 2: on social. 770 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I guess he's got to go with the 771 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: former coach. 772 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 4: I think d'An tonio do it for him. You know 773 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,479 Speaker 4: who's who's gonna who's gonna induct him into the Hall 774 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 4: of Fame. 775 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 2: Dwight Howard, So okay with this potential deal Harden Simmons 776 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 2: if the hang up, if we're to believe that it 777 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 2: is the Canary pieces, they're bickering over what should go back? 778 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 2: What should Maury in the Sixers be willing to offer 779 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 2: to get James Harden, you know, giving up Ben Simmons 780 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 2: and Blank for Harden or nobody in your opinion, like 781 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 2: where what would you be offering? And that's where you 782 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 2: would drive the line. 783 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,760 Speaker 3: One of those guys of the Seth Curry or matthis tible, 784 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 3: I think, okay, one of those, so Maxie is off 785 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 3: the table. I would keep Maxie. Yes, I think Seth 786 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 3: Curry is obviously very good. He's good floor space for 787 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 3: his shootings, having a great season by his you know, 788 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 3: his best season. But James Harden should be able to 789 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 3: compensate for that. If you get James Harden, the best 790 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,919 Speaker 3: version of James Harden, then yes, you make that deal. 791 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 3: You don't let a Seth Curry hold that one up 792 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 3: because you can get him, and you know, James Harden, 793 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 3: even though he didn't formally say, his body language, his 794 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 3: attitude over these last few weeks now, he obviously hasn't 795 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 3: been playing the last few games, but prior to that 796 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,879 Speaker 3: you could see the declining in his effort on the court. 797 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 3: But if you can get him re engaged and refocused, 798 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 3: you make that deal. If you're Philadelphia, it improves the 799 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 3: team immediately, and you just you again, send that message 800 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 3: to Joel Embiid, like, we're going for it. You know, 801 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 3: the guy who we're prepared to trade the main player. 802 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 3: He's not playing. Who knows if he's going to come 803 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 3: back and play if he's not traded, probably not. But 804 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 3: you make that deal to get the better player right now, 805 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 3: and you shoot your shot and you go for it. 806 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,959 Speaker 2: Okay, So if Sean Mars is telling Darryl all right, 807 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 2: we want obviously Ben Simmons, we want Curry, and we 808 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 2: want Thibel, and we want to pick you, it sounds 809 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 2: like you're saying no, no, no, come on, Sean, too much. 810 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would probably give up the pick, but I 811 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 3: wouldn't give up Tible as well. 812 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 2: Right right, And then in Theory Morey's saying to Sean, well, no, 813 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 2: we're not We're not going to give you all that 814 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 2: because we think he's going to come to us anyway, 815 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 2: possibly in the summer, So why would we do that. 816 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 2: We're not going to give you the whole bag here. 817 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:45,720 Speaker 2: So what do you think, Trey, is this happening today? 818 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 2: Just tell me, yeah, I do. I think it's happening. 819 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 2: I think there's too much smoke. 820 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 5: And honestly, if Darryl Morey and Sean Marks aren't talking, 821 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 5: then I don't think they're doing their drugs or your gms. 822 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 5: And these are the two biggest trade target out there. 823 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 5: I think they're probably talking. And I think that this 824 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 5: is going to happen because it feels like once somebody 825 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 5: gets it in their mind that they want to play 826 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 5: for another team, they end up making their way to 827 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 5: that team. In order of players I would want to 828 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 5: keep if I'm the Sixers, Curry first, Maxi second, Fible third. 829 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 5: I think Harden and Embiide will both want as many 830 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 5: shooters as possible with them alongside in the court, and 831 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 5: we see in the playoffs all the time you need 832 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,280 Speaker 5: more than just one ball handler, so I think having 833 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 5: either Maxie or Curry to kind of like handle the 834 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 5: secondary load. I guess the tertiary load behind the two 835 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 5: big stars is what I would prefer. 836 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 2: Well, let's get to the Lakers here, and the rumors 837 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 2: swirling around this team. Windhorse said the Lakers have been 838 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 2: so far unwilling to include their twenty twenty seven first 839 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 2: round pick in any sort of possible Russell Westbrook trade. 840 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 2: All Right, Bill Around has said the Lakers have declined 841 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 2: to engage with Dennis Shuoter, though there are conflicting reports 842 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 2: to that that Lakers maybe maybe are looking at a Yeah. Yeah, 843 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 2: so let's break down la here and they're what they 844 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 2: can do today task and what they should do. I mean, 845 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 2: is any gonna is anybody gonna be willing to take 846 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 2: Westbrook as long as that twenty twenty seven pick is there? 847 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 2: Should the Lakers be doing that? I guess is what 848 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 2: I'm getting out. 849 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 4: Here, is that what entices a team to take Westbrook 850 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 4: a twenty twenty seven first round here? 851 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 2: It has to be a draft pick. Yeah, it has 852 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 2: to be. So that's the only one. 853 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, if that's what it is, then the Lakers 854 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 4: should do it if they have a possibility of getting 855 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 4: back a player that could help their team. 856 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know where that where. 857 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 4: That situation is got to be a lot of money, Yeah, 858 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 4: it's got to be a lot of money going back. 859 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 1: So who is it. Who is a possibility? Is there 860 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: anybody out there? 861 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, Lebron's going to be forty two and twenty twenty seven. 862 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 3: They need to worry about that. They need to worry 863 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 3: about what they're doing for this season. But again, it's 864 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 3: it's all this like, well, they can attach the draft pick, Okay, 865 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 3: you still got to get that return for Westbrook or 866 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 3: you're just trying to dump into someone like the Thunder 867 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 3: who have the cap space just to get him away 868 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 3: from the team. If that's what they're trying to do, 869 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 3: then they can do that, But they need help, and 870 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 3: I don't what they've got tangibly that they can trade 871 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 3: to get an immediate improvement on their team. Okay, Monk, sure, 872 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 3: maybe he attracts something. Taylor Horton, Tucker. They should have 873 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,479 Speaker 3: done this last season, didn't do it. But again, there's 874 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 3: just not that one player there that's like, Okay, this 875 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 3: deal's out there for them if they want it and 876 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 3: they can improve. They've gone, They've put their chips into 877 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,360 Speaker 3: the table for Lebron and Anthony Davis, and right now 878 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 3: they're just not getting the return on that. So I'm 879 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,359 Speaker 3: not really sure where that deal is. 880 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 5: I mean, here's the thing. The Lakers shouldn't try the 881 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 5: twenty twenty seven pick. They should hang on to it because, 882 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 5: like you're saying, Lebron is forty two, he is not 883 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 5: going to be a Laker in twenty twenty seven, I 884 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 5: would I mean mark it down. Now, five years from now, 885 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 5: Lebron James will not be a Laker. He'll still be 886 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 5: in the NBA, but he won't be a Laker. But 887 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 5: the Jews on that pick is going to be crazy. 888 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 5: The Lakers will do everything in their power to win 889 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 5: as many championships as they can while Lebron is there, 890 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 5: and then they're gonna fall off, just like they did 891 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,800 Speaker 5: when Kobe retired, right and then you run into picks 892 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,959 Speaker 5: like Otis Thorpe, which eventually turns into the number two pick, 893 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 5: or attaching a pick for Baron Davis, which eventually becomes 894 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 5: the number one pick. Even with the Calves and Lebron 895 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 5: in twenty eighteen, they said we are not trading that 896 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 5: pick that eventually became number eight. It eventually became Colin Sexton, 897 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 5: which was the first piece of the Caves rebuild. So 898 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 5: the Lakers shouldn't trade it. But if they're gonna be 899 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 5: able to move off Westbrook, they kind of have to 900 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 5: trade it called the Nicks. I'm telling you, I'm telling you, 901 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 5: they'll do Julius Randall for right, Julius Randall and. 902 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 2: I've been forty eight for Russell Westbrook. They'll do it. 903 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 2: Oh wow, okay, well, yep ye, I mean you brought 904 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 2: that one, that one up yesterday. We'll see. That would 905 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 2: just I feel like that trade would break the internet. 906 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 2: The Lakers and Nicks. Oh my god. With Randall going 907 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 2: one way in Westbrook, wing well. 908 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 5: Guard for the past two seasons has been Derrick Rose. 909 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 5: Is Westbrook better than Derek Rose at this point if 910 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 5: he's given the full reins the way Nick Rose is 911 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 5: when he's been there six man, maybe maybe if he's 912 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 5: the number one guy, he can lead you to forty 913 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 5: one wins. But at least you would get off of 914 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 5: his contract after next season, whereas forty a lasts I 915 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 5: think through next season, and then Julius Randall is Oh yeah, 916 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 5: so three seasons of Fournier after this year and then 917 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 5: another four of of Julius Randall. I mean, it's it's 918 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 5: a tough stuff. It's honestly tough stuff, and like you 919 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 5: can't stop thinking, I personally can't about Ramon Sessions in 920 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 5: twenty twelve, or we're like this guy's gonna change it. 921 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 5: You know, the Lakers are really struggling right now. All 922 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 5: they need is a point guard to organize things. It's 923 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,280 Speaker 5: fucking Raman Sessions. 924 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 2: He won a couple People of Fantasy titles. Ye, that's right, man, 925 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 2: that's right. It was a late pickup. He took people 926 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,399 Speaker 2: over the top there. All right, let's keep it going 927 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 2: here while we wait on to see what the Lakers do. 928 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 2: Professor Zach Lowe said, and I brought this up for 929 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 2: you task because you were wondering he could possibly be moved. 930 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 2: He said, the Piecers do not plan on trading buddy healt, 931 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 2: who obviously just made his way to that team in 932 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 2: the deal this week. And you thought, maybe that is 933 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 2: a player that you could flip and get something in 934 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 2: return for but Lo says, no, they're gonna be keeping them. 935 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 2: I'm surprised that. 936 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: I'm surprised. 937 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, if that actually is the case, it doesn't really 938 00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 4: make a lot of sense to me. Now, he's got 939 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 4: a couple of years left, so can trade him next 940 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 4: year or two. Yeah, so long term doesn't seem like 941 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 4: he fits. It seems like he's got yeah that one attribute, 942 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 4: that guy who can fire away, So why wouldn't they 943 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 4: trade him to a contender. It might not be today, 944 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 4: but some they're. 945 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 1: Going to have to move off. 946 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 2: Maybe around the draft. 947 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're gonna have to move off, buddy. It doesn't 948 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 4: seem like he fits with their timeline at this point. 949 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 4: He's getting older. 950 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 2: And speaking of gunners, Keith Smith says, it sounds like 951 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 2: the Terrence Ross situation is playing out very similar to 952 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 2: the Evan Fournier, you know, situation at last season's deadline. 953 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 2: From his sources, Keith Smith, here Orlando wants a first 954 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 2: round pick for Terrence Ross. Rival teams are hoping as 955 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,800 Speaker 2: the day goes on here as we tack closer to 956 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,399 Speaker 2: three pm Eastern, that the price comes down to two 957 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 2: second round picks. This was a guy that a lot 958 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 2: of people have on their list of being moved here 959 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 2: eventually today, Terrence Ross, that's a guy that you could see, 960 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: like we said, winning you a quarter, winning you a 961 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,719 Speaker 2: half of a playoff series. You know you can add 962 00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 2: them to a lot of teams. You know what you're 963 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 2: getting with them. It's got some reps in the playoffs, 964 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 2: and it maybe wouldn't take a lot. Do you want 965 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 2: a first round pick? Why is it the magic to 966 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 2: hold off for that? But maybe as a deg goes on, 967 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 2: you can get it down to two second rounders. So 968 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,479 Speaker 2: Terrence Ross, you think we will see him moved here today? 969 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 2: At the deadline? I think he's going to get traded 970 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 2: every deadline. It feels like this is the one. I mean, 971 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,320 Speaker 2: two second round picks, that's nothing. Do it? 972 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 5: Somebody calling get Terrence Ross? 973 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 2: What team would you like to see Ross find his 974 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 2: way to here today? Of the contenders? 975 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, who needs more three point shooting? Even though 976 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:29,839 Speaker 3: it's three point shooting. 977 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: Is down a little bit. 978 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 3: I think the Grizzlies actually, you know, Trey mentioned the 979 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 3: Duncan Robinson one. That one probably a little bit out 980 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 3: of the range of the Grizzlies, but this one may 981 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,359 Speaker 3: be gettable, especially for a couple of seconds there. Ross 982 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 3: has got a very nice contract for next season. I 983 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 3: think it's around eleven million dollars, which is great. He's 984 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 3: a veteran, he comes off the bench and he shoots 985 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 3: the three pointers, So that could be something there. That 986 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,479 Speaker 3: would be a nice little pick up, a nice little 987 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,359 Speaker 3: addition there, I think if the Grizzlies could do that. 988 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 2: Are there any other deadline predictions you want to make 989 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 2: here when it comes to a player being moved or 990 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 2: a team doing something, or just some other squad do 991 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,319 Speaker 2: you want to talk about, because that's all I have 992 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 2: in terms of notes in front of you right now. 993 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 2: It's sort of quiet, you know, outside of these funny 994 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 2: tweets that everybody's. 995 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 5: Waiting to see what happens with Simmons and probably but 996 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 5: they're not talking, So I mean, no trades today. Since 997 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 5: those two aren't talking, there's no way they're talking. 998 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 3: The Mavericks have to do something, though, I think, okay, 999 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 3: because I've sort of said before I think they're a 1000 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,800 Speaker 3: good team, but they're in the playoffs. Things are different, 1001 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 3: and I just don't think they're quite well equipped to 1002 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 3: go for a long playoff run, you know. So I 1003 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 3: think they need to show Luca we're going to try 1004 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 3: to do something, whether that's a veteran like an Eric 1005 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 3: Gordon there to come in and help. Even again, if 1006 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 3: you just grab dragists just to sort of see if 1007 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 3: you can improve some backcourt handling responsibilities there, and they 1008 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 3: need to somehow get a big, I think as well. 1009 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 2: So, okay, so you have the Mavericks, you think they'll 1010 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 2: be active today. 1011 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 3: I think they have to be. I think so. Two 1012 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 3: playoff appearances in the last two years against the Clippers, 1013 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 3: both times. You know, they obviously led last year and 1014 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 3: they just ran out of gas because Luca was doing 1015 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 3: everything for that team. He was incredible. No one else 1016 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 3: was really contributing. They need something. 1017 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 2: Else, what do you think? 1018 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 4: Ahead, Now, let me throw out this uh proposed three 1019 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,800 Speaker 4: team deal from Michael Scotto of Hoopside. Okay, it involves 1020 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 4: the Lakers. We'll start that Lakers swear jar soon, but 1021 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 4: we still got to talk Lakers until the trade deadline. 1022 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 4: Involves the Knicks and the Raptors. The Lakers would get 1023 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:26,120 Speaker 4: Cam Reddish and Alec Burks. Some logic there. Alec Burk's 1024 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 4: a ball handler. Try and think that Cam Reddish, I'm 1025 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 4: sure everyone's high on the Knicks would get goarn drags 1026 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 4: and draft picks, and the Raptors would get Taylor Horton, 1027 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 4: Tucker and Neuralin's Noel mm hmmmmm. 1028 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 2: That's a Ramon Sessions right there. Yeah, from the Cam Reddish. 1029 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, wouldn't really, that's a sessions that we kept thinking 1030 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 3: that the Knicks this cam Reddish was a something, you know, 1031 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 3: precursor to something else, and apparently it's not at all. 1032 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 3: Apparently they just said, oh, we just tried and give 1033 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 3: an Knox the Camradish will give you a pick, and 1034 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 3: then who cares after. 1035 00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,360 Speaker 2: That, and then neither of them are playing. 1036 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:01,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be weird. 1037 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,800 Speaker 4: And the Raptors getting Taylor Horton Tucker that they're rumored 1038 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 4: to be getting for Kyle Lowry at. 1039 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 2: Last year, right, I mean from the Raptor's side of things, 1040 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 2: I like the idea of Neurlin's and well on the team, 1041 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 2: I am not high on Taylor Horton Tucker at all. 1042 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 2: I don't think he's that good. 1043 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:20,800 Speaker 3: Obviously overhyped, but last year the Raptor is desperately wanted him, 1044 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 3: and now it's like keep being wait, I really wanted 1045 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 3: to desperately desperately maybe an e strange, but it was 1046 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 3: more like Carlyle's going anyway, so I give it something. 1047 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 2: Right, right? Uh? Yeah, that's an interesting trade. And you 1048 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 2: said the Knicks getting a pick in that drugge. Obviously 1049 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 2: they're getting a little point. 1050 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 4: Grund giving up and Burks and long term money, which 1051 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 4: would make sense for the Knicks instead of signing up 1052 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 4: all this long term money go in the other direction. 1053 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,720 Speaker 4: Because they signed Birks for three years, they sign Neurlins 1054 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 4: Noel for three years. Right, there's they've made some mistakes obviously. 1055 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 2: All right, well, let's hear from everybody out there right 1056 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 2: now in the stream.

Yeah, 1174 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:43,200 Speaker 3: I imagine that's still on it. Yeah, that's actually pretty 1175 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 3: bad idea for a celebrity game. You know, one them 1176 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 3: all coming down, pulling up from four feet on the 1177 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 3: three point line. 1178 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:52,759 Speaker 1: But uh yeah, ten minutes on the celebrity game.

Last night's game was the Warriors 1184 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,160 Speaker 2: Jazz game. Utah favored by two and a half. It 1185 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,879 Speaker 2: was pretty close for three quarters, and then Utah blew 1186 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 2: the doors off the Warriors snapped that nineteen winning streak. 1187 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:16,840 Speaker 2: This brought to you by bet MGM, of course. So 1188 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 2: that's a win for me, that's a win for Lee 1189 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:21,319 Speaker 2: or five and two, that's an l for Tray falls 1190 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 2: to four and three here in February and task the 1191 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 2: perfect Game is still alive. Amazing, you're zero to seven. 1192 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,480 Speaker 2: It's it's amazing. I think Schumann was pointing out, like 1193 00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 2: if you somehow do the impossible and go the entire 1194 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:38,759 Speaker 2: month of February without picking a game correctly that in 1195 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:40,840 Speaker 2: a weird way, it's like shooting the moon in hearts 1196 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 2: that we all should lose. Fair I'm fine, I'm fine 1197 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 2: with it. Okay, if you can do it, yeah yeah, 1198 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 2: and you're actually helped out a little bit in February 1199 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 2: because you know it lose some We lose about a 1200 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 2: week of games because of the deadline.
