00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: What don't go goof off?

Speaker 2: All right?

Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly right, see you there, Lawrence.

Speaker 4: Yes, as I said, we got some news before. Let

28
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 4: me just break down what we're gonna get into. We're

29
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 4: gonna get into a lot of NBA transactions. Kyrie Rees

30
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 4: signs in Dallas, but are they going after D'Angelo Russell

31
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 4: Austin Reeves declines an extension with the Lakers. Jonathan Comingiz

32
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: reportedly wanted by a couple of teams out.

33
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: There, the Kings and the Heat. But first, just before we.

34
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 4: Got on, Massiujerie is gone from the Toronto Raptors. Teamp

35
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 4: Sharana first reporting beside is done.

36
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable.

37
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 4: I just can't believe it as it comes out of

38
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 4: my mouth out as vice chairman and president of the

39
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 4: Toronto Raptors. Champ's added Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment and

40
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 4: Massiuzieri have decided to part ways. At Zugerie was entering

41
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 4: the final year of his contract.

42
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: Trey, how do you feel about this?

43
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: I mean, we got to hear mostly from you man.

44
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 2: You're actually a Raptors fan. For me, I was just shocked. Yeah,

45
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 2: that it happened. The timing of it good for us

46
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 2: making a show coming in like half an hour before

47
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: we're getting ready to record.

48
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: Thank you to the Raptors.

49
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 2: But the fact that the draft happened the last two

50
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 2: nights assumedly Massi was involved in the decisions made to

51
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: take Colin Murray Boyles and I.

52
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 3: Forget the name of their second round pick for last night.

53
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 2: Nonetheless, very strange that he would be involved at all

54
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 2: in deciding the new guys that are going to be

55
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 2: coming into Toronto, only to be let go a couple

56
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 2: of days later, you know, a few hours, if we're

57
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 2: being quite honest, from the second round.

58
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, this was a shock.

59
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,519
Speaker 2: You know, there have always been rumors that mass I

60
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: was desired by other teams throughout the league.

61
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 3: There is the expire.

62
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 2: He's on an expiring contract and MLS apparently didn't want.

63
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: To pay him.

64
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 2: But I always thought whenever Massive the Raptors, it would

65
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 2: be him choosing to go somewhere else, to start fresh somewhere,

66
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 2: never them saying goodbye to him.

67
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm totally with you on that, and that's why

68
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 4: I included that second part where Sham's notes they have

69
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 4: parted ways. Usually when you hear that about a coach

70
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 4: or anybody in the NBA world, they just fired him.

71
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 4: In this case, I sure do think Messieri is just

72
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 4: ready to move on in life. He's been there for

73
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 4: twelve years. He will forever be remembered as a god

74
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 4: with the Toronto Raptors. I mean, if Kawhi gets a statue,

75
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,839
Speaker 4: I don't mind putting a statue of Massiu Jeri right

76
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 4: beside it. That deal to get Kawhi Leonard took a

77
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 4: lot of guts to deal DeMar DeRozan, who was if

78
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 4: we're using the term god, yes, I am was a

79
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 4: god to Toronto Raptors fans. They loved him, they adored him,

80
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 4: they moved on. Messiah was that guy in front of

81
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 4: all those fans saying I'm gonna swear two days in

82
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 4: a row here Brooklyn.

83
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: I bleed it. I'll bleep it. You know.

84
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 4: He did the whole thing for Paul Pierce too. We

85
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 4: don't give a about it. Yeah, bleeping myself, yea, I

86
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 4: would never bleep himself. But I do think here we

87
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 4: are against twelve years later since he got to Toronto.

88
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 4: I just think he has other ideas that he wants

89
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 4: to do in life. I would believe that. I do

90
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 4: think he sort of passed the baton onto Bobby Webster

91
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 4: to kind of run the show. I don't think this

92
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 4: has anything to do with Colin Murray Boyles and making

93
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 4: that decision. Hey, the Colin Murray Boyles videos that are

94
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 4: being reeled out now after he was picked, he worked

95
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 4: out for them. He said, I love being here and

96
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 4: he wore a.

97
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 3: Shirt as a young boy. I saw he had a

98
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 3: Raptor shirt. Oh he like it ten years old or

99
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 3: something like that.

100
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 2: It is good that they have already made replacement, Like

101
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 2: Bobby Webster is the guy in waiting for a few

102
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 2: years at this point, and it kind of seemed like

103
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: maybe a team would poach Bobby Webster before Massi ever

104
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: actually left Toronto. That's how his standing has increased amongst

105
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 2: NBA circles. Massi really helped get the Raptors relevant in

106
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 2: the NBA. I think Josh Louenberg is mentioning. The Raptors

107
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 2: when Mussai took over, had a five year playoff drought

108
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 2: and had won one playoff series in their existence. With Massi,

109
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: their eight playoff appearances, they won fifty seven percent of

110
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 2: their games, which is the fifth best since Massi took over,

111
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 2: and then of course won the championship in twenty nineteen,

112
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 2: making the incredible move to bring in Kawhi Leonard and

113
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 2: sending away a franchise mainstay.

114
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 3: In DeRozan.

115
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 2: But all the moves prior to that as well, really

116
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 2: worked out, you know, getting Abaca, getting Marc Gasol, finding

117
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 2: Fred van Vliet, making Pascal Siakam into an All Star.

118
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 2: It was just like hit after hit after hit after hitting. Yeah,

119
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 2: he was super smart about it, built the team up

120
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 2: and then, similar to Joe Dumar's tenure in Detroit, things

121
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 2: have been a little rockier after winning the championship. You know,

122
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 2: I think it's been four straight seasons that the Raptors

123
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 2: traded first round pick for a veteran who was going

124
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 2: to be entering free agency. We're talking about Fad Young,

125
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 2: Yaka Perl, Kelly A Linik, and then brandon Ingram this

126
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 2: past trade deadline. Those were very weird moves, but because

127
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 2: it was Massi making him, it was like trust and Massih.

128
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 2: But the MBA, what have you done for me lately?

129
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 2: The Raptors are saying you haven't done enough for us lately.

130
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 2: You brought in a lot of six foot nine guys

131
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 2: and we keep ending near the play in tournament with

132
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: the contract up for negotiation. They said, it's not worth

133
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 2: it for us. It's just crazy.

134
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 4: So you think it's more the ownership, saying we don't

135
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 4: want to pay Massi to be running our show.

136
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: Period. Yeah, yeah, I do.

137
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 3: I think they have cheap ownership.

138
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's a fifty to fifty that is, yes,

139
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 4: it's potentially part of it. I do think Massia is

140
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,919
Speaker 4: ready to move on and other franchises may be willing

141
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 4: to pay him more. I can't disagree with that. But

142
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,559
Speaker 4: I don't even know if he stays in the NBA.

143
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 4: I'm not totally sold on that. Maybe he moves on

144
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 4: to an endeavor with Africa Slash the NBA if they

145
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 4: move on there. I don't know if he moves on

146
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 4: to the Toronto Tempo in some way, shape or form,

147
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 4: where Teresa Resh has taken over, who was the VP

148
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 4: of the Toronto Raptors with Massi for a while.

149
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: So, you know, I name those couple things. I think

150
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: maybe he'll be like a freelancer, you know, not like

151
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: an employee you have one hundred percent of the time.

152
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: I don't know what he wants to do.

153
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 4: He can obviously go get a job in the NBA

154
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 4: if he wants, but I'm not sure, and maybe he

155
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 4: demands too much money.

156
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't see it.

157
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 4: I don't see the Washington Wizards connection that used to

158
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 4: be there or the next connection that used to be there.

159
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 4: But maybe there is one that I'm just missing. I

160
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 4: don't have one jumping out to me.

161
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know off the top of my head either, because, yeah,

162
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 2: like Leon Rose seems pretty entrenched in New York, that

163
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 2: was always an opportunity for Masi. The Wizards just changed

164
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: over their front office, so they're probably not going to

165
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 2: make a move.

166
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 3: Maybe it just sits out for.

167
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: A couple of season and then whether or not a

168
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: team decides to wow him with the big time contract

169
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 2: to lure him back maybe, or like you're saying, he's

170
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 2: got a lot of off court interest as well, with

171
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 2: NBA Africa basketball without borders, that kind of stuff.

172
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 4: Yes, so Massi leaving the Toronto Raptors the end of

173
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 4: an era as you went through this the playoff series victories.

174
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: Yes, it was a different world pre Messi.

175
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 4: It was a bad run, but Messiah changed things.

176
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 3: So we'll see what Bobby Webster's got.

177
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 2: Like does he have the same opinions as Messiah. I

178
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 2: assume they have some sort of overlap, but maybe he

179
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 2: likes guys that are seven feet tall. Maybe it's not

180
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: just six foot nine guys. He could like get people

181
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 2: of any height.

182
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do wonder even yesterday or two days ago,

183
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 4: now when they drafted Calmary Boyles, was it Bobby or

184
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 4: was it MASSI so because I think him being there

185
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 4: that long kind of already was saying it's it's your turn, Bobby,

186
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 4: because Bobby was doing a lot of the world, doing

187
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: a lot of the media work. So TBD on the

188
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 4: future of the Toronto Raptors. But it was a great

189
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 4: twelve years, that is for sure. I'm moving on to

190
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 4: the NBA Draft Day number two. We got some action

191
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 4: going on. We had a lot of trades going on, yes,

192
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 4: big ones. So just to recap quickly, the Phoenix Suns

193
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 4: basically trade six second round picks to get two good

194
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 4: second round picks. In this draft, there was another great

195
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 4: one for the Phoenix Suns, I think anyways, or the

196
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 4: Magic traded four second round picks for one as well.

197
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 4: We had the Lakers moving way up, traded twice to

198
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 4: get to their number thirty six pick.

199
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: I like the Raptors pick Elijah Martin. I had forgotten

200
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: for a second when you said Martin Elijah with an a.

201
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: You don't see that very often anyways.

202
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 4: Do you want to start with those transactions or do

203
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 4: you want to start with you know, NBA Draft Day

204
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 4: two is here. In general, the whole production, I think

205
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 4: it went from the after noon last year to the

206
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 4: evening this year. Became more of a big thing in

207
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 4: the Barkley Center.

208
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean I'll start by saying, we don't

209
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 2: need two days. There's no way we do. Last year

210
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 2: they started doing it basically so Bronnie James could have

211
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 2: his draft party fair. There's not a Bronnie James in

212
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 2: this draft, And in fact, it's going the opposite way,

213
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: where players who would be good gets in the second round,

214
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 2: a lot of them are going back to college because

215
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 2: they can make money in the nil and then maybe

216
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 2: be a second round pick in the draft the next season.

217
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 2: So there was a ton of trades for teams trying

218
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 2: to get into like the first five or six picks

219
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 2: of the second round because those are the most desirable players.

220
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 2: And then everything after that was kind of like stash.

221
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: Guys.

222
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 2: You even had Tim Connolly saying we thought it was

223
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: going to be fun having the thirty first pick of

224
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: the draft, the first pick of the second round. It

225
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 2: wasn't that fun because there was like twenty deals already

226
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 2: done between these teams that are just waiting for.

227
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 3: The guys to drop. So it's kind of weird. I think.

228
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 2: I don't know, if it's like the toothpastes out of

229
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 2: the tube, go back to a one day draft, but

230
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: two days as completely superflu as I think at this point.

231
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I'm glad, I asked. Yeah.

232
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. It's hard to get excited

233
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 2: about the second round. Spike Lee was there. Spike Lee was.

234
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 3: In the building for the second round of the draft.

235
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 2: I thought that was pretty Yeah, you never know when

236
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 2: you're gonna catch Spike Lee.

237
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 3: You expect him to be court side of basketball games.

238
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 2: But he was at like Cole Anthony's draft party once

239
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 2: upon a time, and now he's here just watching the

240
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 2: second round of the draft, getting excited when the Knicks

241
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 2: take Kobe Sanders, but then getting sad when the Knicks

242
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 2: trade Kobe Sanders to the Clippers.

243
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 3: Funny stuff.

244
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 4: It isn't easy to get super excited about second round

245
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 4: picks and the players and who they are and what

246
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 4: they're gonna do for teams because we don't know who

247
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 4: they are. For example, Bob Myers was getting mad on

248
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 4: the broadcast saying Nikola Jokic was drafted in the second round.

249
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 4: It's basically mad that we didn't have the Warriors, as

250
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 4: in we when I use the word we d Bob

251
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 4: Myers and the Warriors didn't get Nikolijokic. I get that.

252
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 4: That was the fun part for me. But one of

253
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 4: these third guys taken yesterday nine nine.

254
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 3: It only went to pick fifty nine last night.

255
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, good, good call. It is funny. He's

256
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 4: gonna be good. So I don't know if it is

257
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 4: the number thirty one because he was waiting there. Rasher

258
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 4: Fleming at thirty one was it's a guy people like,

259
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 4: people liked even in the first round as a first

260
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 4: round selection. So I don't know if the Suns did well.

261
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 4: But what was your take just on the picks in general.

262
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 2: Well, I think the Suns probably did well just because

263
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 2: that's a position they don't really have because right now

264
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 2: the Sons are like all shooting guards and all centers.

265
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 2: So getting a guy who can help on the wing,

266
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 2: similar to Ryan Dunn, I think is good. We'll see

267
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 2: exactly what Fleming turns into but the picks that I

268
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 2: really liked. I thought the Hornets did a good job

269
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 2: si On James at thirty three and then most importantly

270
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 2: to me, Ryan kalk Brenner at thirty four. We talked

271
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 2: about the Hornets not looking like much of a defensive

272
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 2: team going into the season this year after drafting Konka

273
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 2: Nipple in the first round. I guess Liam Nick McNeely

274
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 2: probably helps, but they needed center use of Nurkic the

275
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 2: only real center on the roster. Musa Diabate is around

276
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: as well, but cal Brenner is just like a huge dude,

277
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 2: four time defensive Player of the Year in the Big

278
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: East contrap Conference. He's getting compared to like Luke Cornett,

279
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 2: you know, not a super high ceiling guy, but a

280
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 2: guy who can play a long time in the NBA.

281
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 2: And they just need somebody who's going to give an

282
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 2: effort defensively.

283
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 3: I don't know.

284
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 2: I assume Nurkic will be the starter, but you know,

285
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: calt Brenner, maybe he's going to get some run there

286
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 2: because he's got a useful skill set.

287
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: For that team.

288
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 4: Like I blocked shots, that's for sure. Yeah him, he

289
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 4: could definitely be a part of the rotation. Nurkic Diabate

290
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 4: as well. I do like the comparison to Luke Cornett.

291
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 4: That's how the second round has evolved. I guess you

292
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 4: know you don't have to compare him to a superstar,

293
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 4: but to a role player. Yeah, let's just quickly mention

294
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 4: what the Suns did I mean again, trade six round picks,

295
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 4: second six second round picks, if I can say that

296
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 4: for the thirty one and forty one and the thirty

297
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 4: one as Rasher Fleming, Yeah, he's a wing he's the

298
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 4: numbers are really really good. He's not just a three

299
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 4: and D guy. A ton of dunks, a ton of

300
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 4: great cuts. And I liked his interview. He said, quote,

301
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 4: even when I'm having a bad night, you know, missing shots,

302
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 4: I doubt that'll happen, but I will contribute. So he

303
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 4: is what the Phoenix Suns need. As you said, he's

304
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 4: a twenty two year old next month, so he's older.

305
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 4: He's not this kid six nine seventy.

306
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: Five wings man. He plays hard.

307
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 4: That's what they need. That being said, they're forty one pick.

308
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 4: The defense ain't good on Kobe Bray. He can shoot,

309
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 4: of course, but as John Hollinger wrote, he can't play defense,

310
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 4: and as Doug Holler wrote, defense will be a challenge.

311
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 4: So everybody who's you know, taking the the noble position

312
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 4: of basically saying when you're about when you're a writer,

313
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 4: you kind of say things like in a gentle way,

314
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 4: but if you see it multiple ways, it's like me

315
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 4: bleeping myself out if you say, if you see it

316
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 4: multiple times, said this way, he's not gonna play defense.

317
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 4: But anyway, he's a number forty one pick and maybe

318
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 4: he'll fit in with the Sons because he won't play

319
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 4: defense because they struggled with that last year. And also

320
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 4: again it was wild to see how many picks were

321
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 4: given up for one draft pick, like the Orlando Magic

322
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 4: gave up four seconds because they wanted number thirty two

323
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 4: so bad. They got Noah Penda, great name, very great name,

324
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 4: the French. He's six seven and a half, huge wingspan

325
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 4: and an East exec On Noah Penda, he said he's

326
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 4: almost like a Draymond, not Draymond's attitude, but the mentality

327
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 4: that from David Aldrich's draft credential. So they got him.

328
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 4: They got Jase Richardson. The Orlando Magic in general seemed

329
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 4: to have done what they wanted to do here in

330
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 4: two days of the draft.

331
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 3: Definitely.

332
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 2: I think they've had I mean, we've had one week

333
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 2: of the offseason. It seems like it's been a lot more.

334
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 2: But bringing in Bain. I liked Jase Richards and he

335
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 2: was my steel of the first round, and then this

336
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 2: guy no apenda, seems like he will at least be

337
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 2: a deep rotation piece for him. So I think Orlando's

338
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 2: cooking a little bit right now. I also liked the

339
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 2: Lakers pick number thirty six. I do Tiero, watching his highlights,

340
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 2: reading his draft profiles seems like a task melis guy

341
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 2: to me, super athlete, good defender, play finisher, some awesome dunks.

342
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 3: I'm like the new Jared Vanderbilt just dropped for LA.

343
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 2: So I assume we'll be hearing some task talk come

344
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 2: the season about this guy, because he's an awesome athlete.

345
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 2: Like ye, Sam Vessini at the Athletic is comparing him

346
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 2: and putting him just like a tick below the Thompson Twins,

347
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 2: and those guys are ridiculous athletes.

348
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 3: So we'll see what he turns out to be.

349
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 2: I liked a video I saw of his on Reddit

350
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 2: today where he's like talking to the camera and shows

351
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 2: on Instagram.

352
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 3: Or maybe tiktoks and he's a young dude.

353
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: He said, if you don't got a girl to kiss,

354
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 2: just give the rim a kiss like this, and then

355
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: he just goes up and.

356
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 3: No dunk. He was just showing off. I can jump

357
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 3: kiss the rim. So I like the tude.

358
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely, that's exciting stuff. I think he could be

359
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 4: part of the Lakers rotation immediately because he's a wing

360
00:16:59,000 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 4: who plays defense.

361
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: The kind of need that.

362
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of up in the air what they're

363
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 4: going to do with their old guys on the wing.

364
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 4: But a dude, Thero. I think he's a Thero. I

365
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 4: think they pronounce it that way. That could be wrong, but.

366
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: He's got this. Yeah.

367
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 2: I'll have to wait until their official NBA player to

368
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 2: know one hundred percent. Yeah, I'm just going Vassini mode.

369
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 2: Can you think Sam Vassini says, I take his.

370
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 4: Gospel and yeah, I'll add to that gospel. Johnny Holly.

371
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 4: John Hollinger said he had Thero rated as a top

372
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,439
Speaker 4: twenty five player earlier in the season. So, I mean

373
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 4: he creates turnovers, He's got this straight line athleticism, which

374
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 4: is what you need as a Los Angeles Lakers, so

375
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 4: he could he could be a part of it. Anybody

376
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 4: else stand out to you?

377
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 2: The last guy that stood out to me is Rocko Sikarski,

378
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 2: the Timberwolves draft pick at number forty five, eighteen years old,

379
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: seven foot three, and I love the photo that the

380
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 2: Athletic used of him for their analysis. He's like stanced

381
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 2: up at some hungry jacks event I mean, this guy's

382
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 2: seven feet three wearing a gigant. It's a grayish coat

383
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 2: with a wide legged, power stance. I thought this is

384
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 2: such a cool look, interesting draft for the Timberwolves. They

385
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 2: also took a center in the first round, Joan beje

386
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 2: don't call me Joan Behringer, eighteen years old as well,

387
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 2: also a center. Like I said, he's a little bit

388
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 2: smaller than Sakarski here. They're both eighteen years old at

389
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 2: the time of the draft. They'll be nineteen during their

390
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 2: rookie season. They're not replacing Rudy Gobert right now, but

391
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 2: go Beart is gonna get older age out of being

392
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,719
Speaker 2: effective in Minnesota, and maybe one of these two guys

393
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 2: developed in some sort of way that they can eventually

394
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: be a Rudy Gobert replacement or at least like a

395
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 2: rotation guy for the Timberwolves at some point. But seven

396
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 2: foot three at eighteen years old, it's worth just bringing

397
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 2: them over and seeing what you got.

398
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 3: Rocco.

399
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,679
Speaker 4: It was hilarious. If you're watching on YouTube, you'd see

400
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 4: Roco hanging out there in front of the Hungry Jack

401
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 4: logos as an eighteen year old. I mean, I can't

402
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 4: help but compare him to Jock Landale because he's from

403
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 4: Australia and he kind of tiny bit looks the same.

404
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 4: But as you said, just take a chance on a

405
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 4: big guy, which some teams are doing, and they took

406
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 4: a couple shots, so we'll see if it works out

407
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 4: for them. I think the Raptors they also took a

408
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 4: shot with a particular type of guy in Elijah Martin.

409
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 4: He is six to two, but he is super wide.

410
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 4: I mean, he plays tough defensively. Watching those highlights last night,

411
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 4: I thought of Marcus Smart and he's a five year

412
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 4: college player at Florida Atlantic and then the Gators winning

413
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 4: the championship. He needs to shoot more threes, that's for sure,

414
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 4: but he's an old as I said, five year guys.

415
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 1: So he's twenty three. We'll see him beside Jamal Shitt.

416
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 4: Like. They've got a lot of guys who can play

417
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 4: defense in terms of the back court, that's for sure,

418
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 4: but they need to shoot a little bit better, so

419
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 4: we'll see what that happens with that. Also, just a

420
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 4: note on Jenni Broom, selected by the seventy six ers.

421
00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: Sharp look.

422
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 4: I thought, sorry, I didn't grab a screen grab, but

423
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 4: you had the clear framed glasses looking good. No, and

424
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 4: it's it's an insult to do what I'm gonna do.

425
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 1: But he is.

426
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 4: He's balding a little bit, you know. Uh, I wonder

427
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 4: he had I had a flashback to Carlos Boozer. Okay,

428
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 4: I don't know if he's gonna spray that hair, but

429
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 4: he looks slick, so I wouldn't put it past him.

430
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 1: He'd probably figure it out.

431
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a man, you know, like the Sixers, did VJ.

432
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 2: Edge come with their first pick? MAXI is early in

433
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 2: his career. Jared McCain will only be in year two,

434
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 2: and there's some potential spots on.

435
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess he's.

436
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 2: Kind of like a big guy, right like jan I Broom.

437
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 2: He's gonna play on the interior. But but yeah, I don't.

438
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 3: Think he's got much outside game.

439
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: He's he was definitely a post dude uh in college,

440
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: but a bucket in college and a hard worker and

441
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 2: just seems to know the right things to do. Philadelphia

442
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 2: needs some younger guys, so I think that's good for them.

443
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 4: And last note for me, as teams go even further

444
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 4: than just drafting in the second round because they're doing

445
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 4: so well the G League. Here, this came out that

446
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 4: the Mavericks are signing Gonzaga's Ryan Nemhart andrews bro to

447
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 4: a two way deal.

448
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: He led the college.

449
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 4: In assists period, he led college basketball in assists, so yeah,

450
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 4: that could work out. They're looking for guards that will

451
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 4: we'll get to in a little bit.

452
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, good stuff. The Pacers also, who they get. They

453
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 2: got a Cam Jones I think from Marquette. Maybe he

454
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 2: helps as a third point guard. I think that's kind

455
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 2: of interesting. With Halliburton out, they'll have Andrew Nemhart running things.

456
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 3: TJ. McConnell doing his thing as well.

457
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 2: But there's probably minutes for one more guy, and we'll

458
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,919
Speaker 2: see if Cam Jones turns into anything.

459
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 4: All right, Moving on, to the NBA Summer League and

460
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 4: how they've expanded the beginning of it to the Thursday night.

461
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,679
Speaker 4: He used to always start on a Friday night, but

462
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 4: they're making the Thursday night the thing come to Vegas

463
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 4: for even longer. I guess is the thinking and on

464
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 4: that they're the showcase games. We're getting MAVs Lakers, so

465
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 4: you're expecting Flag versus Bronnie James. And in the second

466
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 4: game that night, it'll be a Spur seventy six or

467
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 4: so Dylan Harper and VJ edgecumb on Thursday, July tenth,

468
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,360
Speaker 4: and we'll have planning to talk about it our live

469
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 4: show the day after.

470
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll definitely be talking to these guys up. Should

471
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 3: be fun.

472
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 2: The NBA is so devious putting MAVs versus Lakers that game.

473
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 2: You know, Bronnie James is still getting the big Vegas push,

474
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 2: still a big name at Summer League, which I thought

475
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 2: was kind of funny.

476
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 3: But that should be interesting. But I actually kind of

477
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 3: think the second.

478
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 2: Game six Ers versus Spurs is a little bit more interesting,

479
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 2: just because you can see Dylan Harper and VJ. Edgecomb

480
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 2: guarding each other and that, and that'd be cool.

481
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 3: To see. Usually like to go one versus two.

482
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 2: I don't think Cooper and Dylan Harper would be matching

483
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 2: up at all, but we do have a potential two

484
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,880
Speaker 2: versus three actually going head to head with each other,

485
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 2: which would be fun to watch.

486
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 4: Absolutely. Yeah, we'll see how VJ. Edgecumb can play d

487
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 4: We'll see it with Cooper Flag. I don't know if

488
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 4: he will be matched up or who he'll be matched

489
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 4: up with.

490
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 3: If it maybe a due Tiero more Ado, Yeah, whichever

491
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 3: this is, well know July tenth, we'll know for sure.

492
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: We will all right.

493
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 4: Moving on a note to hear about the Dallas Mavericks

494
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 4: as we get to the NBA transactions. There's plenty over

495
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 4: the last few days that we haven't talked about. Starts

496
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 4: with Kyrie Irving, who's agreed to an extension with the

497
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 4: Dallas Mavericks. Now he's declined his player option for forty

498
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 4: three mil and said I'll sign a three year deal instead,

499
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 4: which will become official in days to come. I guess

500
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 4: it's July six when everything officially becomes official.

501
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: But he's taking a.

502
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 4: Three year deal instead for one hundred and nineteen mil.

503
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 4: What do you think of that?

504
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: Tray.

505
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 2: I think if I was going thumbs up or thumbs down,

506
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 2: I would be like, you know, seventy five percent thumbs

507
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 2: up there. I like that it lines up perfectly with

508
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 2: the AD contract. Both of them will have a player option.

509
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 3: For the twenty seven to twenty eight season.

510
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 2: Average annual value just a little bit under forty million dollars,

511
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 2: which is awesome for a Kyrie Irving type player because

512
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 2: I assume he's going to come back just fine from

513
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 2: his ACL injury twenty five and five for the MAVs

514
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 2: last season.

515
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 3: He's just so skilled and has such a.

516
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 2: Good outside shot that if there's any sort of loss

517
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 2: of quickness, I think that Kyrie can make up for

518
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 2: it with savvy and just know how you know, he's

519
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 2: so far into his career and has always been able

520
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 2: to get.

521
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 3: A shot off. I don't think that changes.

522
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 2: So I think this can be a good deal for

523
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 2: the Mavericks. However, oh, it could be spending one hundred

524
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 2: and twenty million dollars to get like one hundred total

525
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,719
Speaker 2: games from Kyrie Irving. He probably won't play much next season,

526
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 2: and then as he gets older, he'll be what like

527
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 2: thirty six to thirty thirty six to thirty eight on

528
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 2: this contract, it gets a little bit more dicey once

529
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,199
Speaker 2: you or I think maybe I think it's such as

530
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,360
Speaker 2: the end of the contract, whatever it is, things will

531
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 2: get a little more dicey towards the end. And if

532
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: Kyrie's missing half of the season, that's a problem because

533
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 2: if you're paying a million dollars per game, not ideal,

534
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 2: but assuming health, I like it for the MAVs.

535
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess he will be thirty six when it's

536
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 4: all sent downe because he's turned thirty three and it's

537
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 4: just three more years. But he's likely not playing in

538
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 4: twenty twenty six. He'll be back in the middle of

539
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 4: the season. And that's how much we rely on medisine

540
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 4: to say that you just tore your acl in March,

541
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 4: but we're giving you a three year deal, decent chunk

542
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 4: of change.

543
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 1: But I agree with you.

544
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 4: I suspect he'll be back to normal when he does

545
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 4: come back. There is some financial benefits there by signing

546
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 4: for less than forty three million irving allows the Mavericks

547
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 4: to duck under the second apron important stuff. But I

548
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 4: do believe yah Kyrie will come back and he's entirely

549
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 4: and be entirely fine, but they do have holes when

550
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 4: it comes to the guard spot.

551
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 3: So yeah, mainly the starting point guard.

552
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 2: But that's why it's good because getting under the second

553
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 2: apron i'll allows them access to the taxpayer mid level exception,

554
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 2: which is how they're going to get their point guard,

555
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 2: which brings.

556
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 3: Us to our second topic.

557
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: Mark Stein is reporting that the Mavericks will be a

558
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,919
Speaker 2: leading suitor for the Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell, and

559
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 2: I was doing some research into this. I don't think

560
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 2: MAVs fans are happy with this developments. Moneyball a long

561
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 2: time blog. Their headline is here's hoping Shams is wrong

562
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: Smoking Cuban and other MAVs blog their headline was Mavericks

563
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 2: on brink of costly free agency disaster hours after signing

564
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving. Wow, the people who follow the MAVs closely

565
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 2: do not want D'Angelo Russell as the point guard. Kind

566
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 2: of a funny match if Nico Harrison has been spouting

567
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 2: off the defense wins Championships to bring in D'Angelo Russell

568
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 2: to be the head of the snake in front.

569
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 3: Of all of their great front court players.

570
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 2: But the other options for the Mavericks at this point

571
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 2: are basically Malcolm Brogden and Chris Paul.

572
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 3: All three of those got has had their own flaws.

573
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 2: So I don't know who you're choosing between Brogden, CP

574
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 2: three and D'Angelo Russell.

575
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 4: I'm choosing Dangela Russell. I know it seems a little

576
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 4: far fetched, I guess, but Malcolm Brognen, and we don't

577
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 4: know if he'll be able to stay on the floor.

578
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 4: It used to be a huge Malcolm Brocken fan, but

579
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 4: unfortunately injuries have gotten to him. And Chris Paul is

580
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 4: what was very good in his early forties here.

581
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 3: But eighty two games for the Spurs.

582
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 4: That is impressive, very very impressive. That being said, when

583
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 4: you're committing to dangel Russell, it is just that one

584
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 4: spot where you're going to be bad defensively because they're

585
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 4: so good. Because he will be playing beside Max Christi

586
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 4: and whoever plays the three. I guess Clay will be there,

587
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 4: but PJ. Washington and then the Monsters and Anthony Davis,

588
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 4: oh yeah, yeah, how about Cooper Flagg will be playing

589
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 4: the three. Those are incredible, incredible defensive players, so I

590
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 4: don't see a huge problem with it. As you mentioned,

591
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 4: they have the mid level exception. So maybe Dangel Russell

592
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 4: could sign for the Chief. You know, maybe I'm reaching

593
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,400
Speaker 4: a little bit, but at this point of his career,

594
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 4: I'm not sure how much someone will offer Dangel Russell,

595
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 4: so I don't I didn't see a problem, you know

596
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 4: with again, the lineup defensively beside him, it's stacked. It

597
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 4: really is, And that was the whole point of the

598
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 4: Neco Harrison maneuver. Apparently, but really it is because Max

599
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 4: Christy again so so good as as the other guy.

600
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 4: Daniel Russell won't have to guard the other team's point

601
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 4: guard or better perimeter defender if Max Christie can. And

602
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 4: there's there's so many options there on the map, so

603
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 4: I have no problem with it.

604
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Brogged and Chris Paul and D'Angelo Russell,

605
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 2: none of them are defenders. I probably would go with

606
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 2: Chris Paul if I'm being honest. Would it complete the

607
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 2: triumvirate of him playing for every Texics team, Yes, of

608
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 2: course it would exciting. But I also think, as we

609
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 2: saw with Shakeil, just Alexander good guy to learn from

610
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 2: Chris Paul.

611
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 3: So maybe get him in.

612
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 2: He can help Tutor Cooper for a little bit they

613
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 2: don't play the same position, but the know how would

614
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 2: be important for him. So my next question for you,

615
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 2: They're going to get one of these stop gap point guards,

616
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 2: whether it be Russell Brogden or Chris Paul, Kyrie Irving.

617
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 2: Maybe he comes back later in the season. March has

618
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 2: a month to get ready for the playoffs, kind of

619
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 2: get back in the swing of things. How do you

620
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 2: see the MAVs as a team that has like question

621
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 2: marks at point guard? I think Max Christy is a

622
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 2: pretty solid player and then a really good front court.

623
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 2: Do you rate them highly in the Western Conference or

624
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 2: are they just kind of like a play in team

625
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: waiting to happen because that's where they ended up last

626
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 2: year after the Luca trade.

627
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 4: I do rate them highly. Am I looking at this

628
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 4: through rose colored glasses?

629
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: Maybe?

630
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 4: But I expect all those guys to be on the floor.

631
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 4: And yes, I think when you're backbone of your defense

632
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 4: is Anthony Davis, and you have perimeter defenders like we

633
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 4: mentioned Cooper Flag and Max Christie and you I had

634
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 4: incredible ball handlers in Kirier Ring mainly, but you can

635
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 4: rely on Cooper and you can rely on Anthony Davis.

636
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 4: I think they have enough if they're healthy, that's the

637
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 4: whole thing, of course, But I would rate them high.

638
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: How would you put them in the Western Conference?

639
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure.

640
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 2: I would have ok see Houston, Denver, Minnesota ahead of Dallas,

641
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 2: and then it's Clippers, Lakers, Warriors, Mavericks. I think that's

642
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 2: the next four teams. They're all kind of in the

643
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 2: same tier for me, and they all have a lot

644
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 2: of injury concerns. For all those teams. The cliff Bers,

645
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,959
Speaker 2: obviously with Kawhi is a big question mark. The Lakers

646
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 2: if they have Lebron go down or Luke if either

647
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 2: of them missus time, They're a pretty top heavy team

648
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 2: at this point. Golden State is aged just like the

649
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 2: Lakers are, so who knows what happens with them.

650
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 3: But I did like what I saw from Dallas in

651
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 3: those two and a half quarters.

652
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you can at least see Nico Harrison's vision if

653
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 2: you completely ignore the way they got to it. The

654
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 2: team he built, it does make sense as a team

655
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 2: and hitting on the Cooper flag lottery, it's going to

656
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 2: be great to see just what he can contribute in

657
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 2: his rookie year and if he's as good as people

658
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 2: are thinking he's gonna be the Mavericks at least have

659
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 2: a shot, I think to be a top six team

660
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 2: in the West.

661
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm putting them a little bit higher than you.

662
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 4: I'm putting them in that second tier with the Rockets,

663
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 4: the Nuggets.

664
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm missing somebody.

665
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 3: But Denver.

666
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Minnesota, Minnesota.

667
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 2: Minnesota is an easy one to forget because it's like

668
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 2: they had an up and down regular season, but back

669
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 2: to back conference finals and they're running their team back

670
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 2: for the third straight year, which is important.

671
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

672
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 4: Again, still would be worried about the MAVs and their injuries.

673
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 4: But you're adding Cooper Flag, you are adding a ball handler.

674
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 4: You're adding some talented guys. But you'd have to still

675
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,959
Speaker 4: work out just to have ball handlers in terms of

676
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 4: the point guard in the back court period. So Chris

677
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 4: Paul at eighty two games, maybe that's the smart move,

678
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 4: just to have somebody who is playing and then could

679
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 4: be your back point guard when Kyrie is back. Are

680
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 4: you moving on to another transaction? The Fred van Vliet

681
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 4: interesting that he declined or had his team option declined

682
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 4: by the Houston Rockets. It was forty four point nine MIL.

683
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 4: But Fred van Vliet is reportedly agreeing to a one

684
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 4: year guarantee at twenty five mil, and then a twenty

685
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 4: five million dollar player option. So two years. What do

686
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 4: you think about twenty five plus twenty five for Fred

687
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 4: declining that forty four point nine, the team declining that

688
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:33,479
Speaker 4: forty four point nine.

689
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 2: I should say I think this is a pretty good

690
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 2: deal for everybody.

691
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 3: Slightly more money for Fred.

692
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 2: You know, he's making what five and a half more

693
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 2: million dollars, Plus he has the opportunity, if things go

694
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 2: well for the Rockets and for him next season, to

695
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 2: go into free agency summer twenty twenty six, when maybe

696
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 2: there's some more cap space, maybe there's a more attractive team,

697
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 2: if there's somewhere else he wants to go. It's a

698
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 2: lower cap number for the Rockets. They're a team that's

699
00:32:58,240 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 2: going to have to start paying some of these rookie

700
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 2: go eventually. And if it all goes well, Fred van

701
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 2: Blee can still pick up his option for the next season,

702
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 2: and they can keep the team going and keep Fred

703
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 2: van Vliet around long enough until Reed Shepard is theoretically

704
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 2: ready to take over as the starting point guard, which

705
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 2: probably is the vision for the Rockets a few couple,

706
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 2: a couple of seasons down the line, I think Fred

707
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 2: van Vliet's gonna be good for the Rockets once again.

708
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 2: They're gonna need his defense more with Dylan Brooks being

709
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 2: shipped out of town. They're gonna need his late game

710
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 2: scoring a little bit less. I think now that Kevin

711
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 2: Durant is around and they're gonna need his facilitating and

712
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 2: his playmaking, which Fred van vlad is also pretty good at.

713
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 3: He is like the veteran leader now that Dylan Brooks

714
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 3: has gone.

715
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 2: You know, KD is a veteran certainly, but I think

716
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 2: Steven Adams also has a voice there.

717
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 3: So I like keeping Fred van Vliet around.

718
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 2: This guy's just been betting on himself for the entirety

719
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 2: of his NBA career and they keep coming up Fred.

720
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, through his first ten seasons, he'll now have made

721
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 4: one hundred and ninety points seven million. Wow, a record

722
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 4: for undrafted players. That's awesome, according to a man, Eric Kareen.

723
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 4: And how could that be wrong? Yes, that is a

724
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 4: ton because he did bet on Fred, came up Fred

725
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 4: every time he bet out himself. The Rockets signed him

726
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 4: two years ago, and when they signed him, I just

727
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 4: thought it appeared long at three years guaranteed, but it

728
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,319
Speaker 4: ended up being two plus a team option, and now

729
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 4: they get out of that team option. So now they've

730
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 4: paid him forty one, forty three and now twenty five.

731
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 4: In his first three seasons with the team. You know,

732
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 4: he kind of struggled a little bit shooting the three

733
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 4: ball because there was a lot on him during the

734
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 4: regular season, but he came through in the postseason. And

735
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 4: as you said, he is the VET he now he

736
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 4: has to be even less of that. He has to

737
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,320
Speaker 4: be even less of a score with Kevin Durant.

738
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: You got to keep him around.

739
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 4: Simple Azet's at twenty five mil in today's NBA, I

740
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 4: think it's it's inexpensive. It feels like maybe Fred is

741
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 4: aging faster than he then.

742
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 1: A thirty one year old would in the NBA. But

743
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: he is.

744
00:34:58,440 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 3: He plays hard.

745
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 4: Minutes he does he does, but he's coming through and

746
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 4: he's led that team. You can't get rid of him.

747
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 4: He's a part of that team. Moving on, Austin reeves

748
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,439
Speaker 4: interesting that he declined a eighty nine point two million

749
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 4: dollar extension from the Los Angeles Lakers. He has two

750
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 4: years left on the deal. They said just tear it up.

751
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 4: We'll sign you to four years. He said, Nah, I

752
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 4: think that I could make more money becoming an unrestricted

753
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 4: free agent next year.

754
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: What do you think about that, Tray, I.

755
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 2: Think he will make more money in free agency next year.

756
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 2: I mean four years, eighty nine million average annual value.

757
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,800
Speaker 2: It's a little bit less than Fred Van Vliet, and

758
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 2: Reeves is a younger player, so it makes sense for

759
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 2: him to turn this one down.

760
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, go Van Vliet mode.

761
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 2: Bet on himself and get into free agency next summer.

762
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 2: He had a down playoff series, you know, didn't really

763
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 2: get to the line at all and kind of looked

764
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 2: lost in the Lakers offense with Luca and Lebron there.

765
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 2: I do have some defensive concerns with playing Luca, Lebron

766
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 2: and then Austin Reeves. If that's your three best players,

767
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 2: only one of those guys plays defense, and it's not

768
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 2: a guarant that Lebron's giving an effort defensively. So I

769
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 2: do think there are question marks with Reeves sticking with

770
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 2: the Lakers, but he said he wants to stay there

771
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,319
Speaker 2: his entire career because he loves the basketball and also

772
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 2: playing golf out in La so he's a big fan

773
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:16,919
Speaker 2: of the weather. I thought that was a hilarious quote

774
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 2: from him. It was like he got the basketball last

775
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 2: on the list of things. He's like, I want to

776
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:21,320
Speaker 2: stay out here. That's a great place.

777
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 3: I love being here. I love playing golf, and the

778
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 3: basketball is awesome.

779
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,919
Speaker 2: But yeah, this makes sense for Reeves to turn down

780
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 2: a little bit of stability here.

781
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 3: Four years is a nice.

782
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 2: Contract to sign to know you're going to be getting

783
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 2: paid and not having to worry about the injury risk.

784
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,280
Speaker 3: But he's usually stayed healthy throughout his career.

785
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 2: So play out this season, have a good year, and

786
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 2: then do it all again next summer.

787
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can opt out of that contract next summer,

788
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 4: become that unrestricted free agent and sign a monster where

789
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 4: you can. I don't know if you can build your

790
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 4: own golf course with all that all those dollars, that's

791
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 4: a lot of dollars. I just didn't know he was

792
00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 4: a golf player at all, and see it didn't see

793
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 4: that as part of Austin Reeves flow. But I'm sure

794
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 4: he's a great, great golf player and he will be

795
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 4: a good player on this team. As you said, the

796
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 4: three of them, as they're you know, three year perimeter defenders.

797
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 4: It's you know, you know, not ideal. That being said,

798
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 4: if he signs a long term deal and Lebron is

799
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 4: gone by the second, third, fourth year of it.

800
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: But you gotta you gotta build around that. He will

801
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 1: retire someday, yeah, right.

802
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 4: So if it's a due theoo playing better beside him

803
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 4: or others playing beside him, they would like the MAVs

804
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 4: did with Luka Dancic, you kind of have to build around, uh,

805
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 4: build around him with defenders.

806
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 1: Really, that's what it comes down to.

807
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:48,439
Speaker 4: And Austin, yes, he was not that, but I think

808
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 4: he did improve a little bit. Uh, And so they're

809
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 4: gonna have to just get better.

810
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 2: They're gonna have to get better in other places, yes, exactly,

811
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 2: But you're right, Lebron won't be there forever. So right now,

812
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 2: Reeves is the number three guy, but he's a solid

813
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,400
Speaker 2: number two guy as well, which it who knows what

814
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 2: kind of contract he'll sign and if it'll be with

815
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 2: the Lakers next summer, but it'll probably be at least

816
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 2: four years long and it could very well be with

817
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: the Lakers. So further on down the line, when he

818
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 2: steps into the number two role, it's good to have

819
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,240
Speaker 2: guys that can make plays for themselves and for others.

820
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 2: So I'm a Reeves fan in general, so I assume

821
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 2: they'll have a good year and things will look nice

822
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 2: in the Lakers. Well.

823
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 4: Speaking of your second option, John Collins was a second

824
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 4: option for the Atlanta Hawks back when he started getting

825
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 4: paid by them. They went to the Conference finals, and

826
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,399
Speaker 4: he's got a five year deal that now he's going

827
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 4: into the final year of it.

828
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: It's a player option.

829
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 4: He's now with the Utah Jazz if you didn't know,

830
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,359
Speaker 4: and he's exercising his twenty six point five million dollar

831
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 4: player option with Utah.

832
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: What do you think about this?

833
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 2: John, John, He's gonna be a guy that I can't

834
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 2: believe he's as young as he is, only gonna be

835
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 2: twenty eight at the start of next season. Us he's

836
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 2: only been in the NBA for eight years, but it

837
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 2: feels like he's been in the NBA for eighteen years

838
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 2: at this point. I wasn't in to pay or to

839
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 2: making a trade for John Collins at this pass trade deadline,

840
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 2: when he would have had to pay the end of

841
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 2: his contract going into this season for twenty six and

842
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 2: a half million dollars but now I think it's a

843
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 2: good time teams should be looking to trade for John Collins.

844
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 2: It probably isn't going to cost you a first round pick.

845
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,479
Speaker 2: Maybe two to three seconds gets Collins since he will

846
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 2: be an expiring contract. I haven't looked into the finances,

847
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 2: but I think he could help a team like the

848
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 2: Pistons or the Warriors or the Bucks, depending on how

849
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 2: competitive they're trying to be during the season this year.

850
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 2: So Collins is a guy that'll be helpful. He can

851
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 2: shoot threes. He's not quite the leaper that he was

852
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 2: when he was jumping over planes here in Atlanta, but

853
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,439
Speaker 2: I think he knows how to play. I wasn't super

854
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 2: impressed with John collins playoff exploits when he was in Atlanta.

855
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 2: His greatest playoff run was during that twenty twenty one

856
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 2: Conference finals, and it was because he suddenly became like

857
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,319
Speaker 2: a defensive stopper for the team. He wasn't looking to

858
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,439
Speaker 2: score hardly at all, but he was given a great

859
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 2: effort on the other side of the ball. So if

860
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 2: he's able to figure out the defense that needs to

861
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 2: be played in playoff settings and knockdown shots and look

862
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 2: to be a little bit aggressive he can be a

863
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 2: good rotation piece for somebody.

864
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, you brought up some good teams where he could be,

865
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 4: whether it's a three point shooter and he shoots enough

866
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 4: and a really good defender. He brought up the Detroit

867
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 4: Pistons who drafted Chas Lanier because he is a great shooter.

868
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 4: They have They have good shooters on Detroit and John

869
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 4: just has to do what he does. He shoots three

870
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:39,800
Speaker 4: point seven per game this past season. That's kind of

871
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,040
Speaker 4: the average he's had for for a long time here

872
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 4: in the NBA. And he shot a really good percentage

873
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 4: at forty percent, so he can drop into the corner.

874
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 4: You know, he's a tad undersized for a big being,

875
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 4: you know, six', nine so he's probably six,' eight but

876
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 4: he does he does play hard as, you said and

877
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 4: the age as you set off the, TOP there, i

878
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 4: mean he's entering. His prime like this would Be Good

879
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 4: john collins years. To have if you're a, good team

880
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 4: why Not have john. On, there utah it is an

881
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 4: interesting scenario because they've Got Now as bailey if he,

882
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 4: shows up plus you know The lowry markinen right in front,

883
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 4: Of Him walker kessler as A big they've got a

884
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 4: lot of big so he's not gonna be.

885
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 2: There, forever yeah he's the guy that should, be traded

886
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,360
Speaker 2: As is clarkson As His, sexton like those are THE

887
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 2: vets i think that are most likely to be moved

888
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 2: For the jazz to some team as we get into. Free,

889
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 2: Agency here mark and is a little bit more of a.

890
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 2: Question mark he signed his deal last year like the

891
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 2: day after, the deadline that would have allowed him to

892
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 2: be traded at any time. Last season then he went

893
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 2: out and didn't have his best year For, the JAZZ

894
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 2: which i think probably tanked his value around the league a.

895
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 2: Little bit but he's a guy that is helpful to

896
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 2: other teams defending, the rim, shooting threes.

897
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,320
Speaker 3: He scores easily without.

898
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 2: The ball he'll cost a lot more to Get Than,

899
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 2: john COLLINS but i wonder if some team will roll

900
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:04,479
Speaker 2: the dice on a market.

901
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:08,319
Speaker 4: In trade very, very interesting, all right before we get

902
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 4: to some. Rapid firefront one other guy who's always comes

903
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 4: up as where he's going, to be what he's going.

904
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 4: To do is he gonna stay With The Golden. State

905
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,800
Speaker 4: warriors jonathan kuminga restricted. Free agent the videos are popping

Speaker 2: point games in the playoffs against a good playoff defense In.

927

934
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 2: Heat system they don't play exactly Like, the warriors but

935
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 2: they are more system based rather than just straight up

936
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 2: pick and, ROLL based. I think but kaminga makes more sense,

937
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 2: to Me the heat that rather Than. The kings but

938
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 2: if he's really wanting to be the man and take a,

939
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 2: Million shots brooklyn is the.

940
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,239

00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,759
Speaker 4: tapes i don't know what to, call them these last

949
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 4: couple of weeks where he's going through the pick, and,

950
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 4: rolls yeah and making those cross. Court passes it looks

951
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 4: like the guy that wants to, be yes as, you

952
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 4: said more of the number. One guy So The brooklyn

953
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 4: nets fits even better a situation where you wouldn't have

954
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 4: to do a sign. And trade Really, with brooklyn they

955
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 4: got the money to give him a. Monster deal now

956
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 4: that's a lot to be asking for Here For, JONATHAN kaminga,

957
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 4: i mean he never really has has had to be

958
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 4: the guy, At, All right so For The, brooklyn nets.

959
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 1: That would be, a big. Big risk.

960
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,399
Speaker 4: It feels like more like a sign and trade type.

961
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 4: Of thing but it's not going to be a, Huge,

962
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 4: deal like it's not gonna be anywhere close to THE

963
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 4: max i. DON'T think, i mean it would be, THIRTY ish,

964
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:03,800
Speaker 4: i guess which is.

965
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:05,800
Speaker 3: Still, big yuh just a minimum thirty million.

966
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 1: Dollar, deal yeah.

967
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:08,960
Speaker 2: You're right he hasn't earned a max, contract yet but

968
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 2: he's earned a decent deal from somebody and, his youth

969
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 2: his style, OF play a team will take a chance

970
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 2: for Sure. On kaminga and, you know in the, RIGHT

971
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 2: situation i do think he can be a really. Effective

972
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 2: score he's just not necessarily the greatest team player at,

973
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 2: ALL times i.

974
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,040
Speaker 4: Don't, Think yeah and he was an effective scorer Against.

975
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 1: The rockets he.

976
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 4: Was Awesome when steph, went down it Was. The, WOLVES

977
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 4: actually i should say he went he. Was clicked he

978
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,720
Speaker 4: was so good when he is, the guy he seems

979
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 4: like he just fits so well off. The bench and,

980
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,320
Speaker 4: then again watching all of these clips where there's nobody

981
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 4: on a, basketball floor it's like it's like a guy

982
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,040
Speaker 4: who's sort of in front of him and he's able

983
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 4: to make the perfect ball handler passes to get an.

984
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:57,439
Speaker 4: Offense going he looks like a. Different player we'll see

985
00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 4: who wants to, do it who wants to take. That

986
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 4: chance but With, the heat as, you said Or The,

987
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,840
Speaker 4: sacramento kings it's a signe. In trade and So the

988
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:09,359
Speaker 4: warriors also have to take, something, back right and so

989
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 4: again it would be funny for them to trade To The. Miami,

990
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 4: heat again they Just got jimmy. For him so the

991
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 4: Return Of, Andrew, wiggins yeah. Imagine, that yeah they'd probably ask.

00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:19,719

1105
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:29,600

1107
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:36,200

1108
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:41,239
Speaker 2: no like best case scenario the. Ball, explodes yeah worst.

1109
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,840
Speaker 3: Case scenario the. Truck EXPLODES so i didn't want to.
