It feels like. 10 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 2: It feels like Christmas. Yeah, it feels like Christmas here, 11 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: especially in Atlanta. We got the man behind the boards 12 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 2: making the magic happ in JD. 13 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 3: Hello, Hey, good. 14 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: To see you man.

I'm just telling you 19 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in the dark the rest of the day 20 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: after I'm done here, I'm turning all the lights off 21 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: and just getting in an ice bath or something. 22 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,199 Speaker 2: Hey, if you want to come down to the swimming pool. John, 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: just let me know they put in a diving board 24 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: this year. If you want to go one for one 25 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,320 Speaker 2: on cannonballs. 26 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: Nice, Nice, I might have to take you up on that. 27 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: Well, John, you're here to educate us about the NBA draft, 28 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: maybe talk a little free agency. But I know you're 29 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 2: watching Game seven of the Stanley Cup Final last night. 30 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: What did you think about the Consmith Trophy going to 31 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 2: a player from the losing team. 32 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: I am totally fine with it because the con smythe 33 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: trophy is for the entirety of the playoffs and not 34 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: just the finals. 35 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 2: Fair enough, he does it well, they do well. It 36 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 2: could be an NBA Award someday. 37 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. 38 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: Gotta find another Celtic to name it after, though, But uh, 39 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: Connor McDavid. He won the consmth Trophy. He was an 40 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: easy number one draft picked. Then here's a segue for you. 41 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 2: Not an easy number one draft pick in this year's draft, 42 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: is there? John? You just released your top seventy five 43 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 2: players on the athletic go and check that one out. 44 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 2: Your tier one, the top tier for this draft was 45 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 2: called best bets in a bad class. I started laughing 46 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 2: right there. Just how bad is this draft? If you're 47 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 2: leading with these guys stink, but they're the best ones. 48 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: It's sort of like, if we could just start this 49 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: draft at six, I think everyone would be totally fine. 50 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: Like the top five picks are already gone, and now 51 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: here's who's left, and we have the number six pick, 52 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: and here's who we're choosing from. 53 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: Where are the Hawks gonna do with the number one pick? John? 54 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 3: Are they gonna go with a fancy Frenchman? Because it 55 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: is fun to say those names for now, Alexandra Sar, 56 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 3: Zacharieve Sage. I know I'm saying it with that French accent. 57 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 3: We just talked about hockey. I grew up in candidates. 58 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 3: It's hard not to. Or are they gonna go with 59 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 3: the Donovan Klingon? I don't know what will the Hawks do. 60 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: I think what the Hawks would really like to do 61 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: is trade down, but I think they haven't gotten good 62 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: enough responses from sort of what they've put out there. 63 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: The most interesting thing to me is for them to 64 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: bluff as though they wanted Sar enough that it preceded 65 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: Washington to trade up one for two, And I thought 66 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: they could have played that card a little more harder 67 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: than they have so far, because it seems like they're 68 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: kind of between and uh, I do that well well 69 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: and and Clinging. And I gotta say, I'm not super 70 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: excited about Reach. It feels almost like he fits better. 71 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 1: But it's like, are we using the first pick in 72 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: the draft for wing depth? Like I don't know. It 73 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: just feels a little underwhelming. Klingon has has a chance 74 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: to be a dominating big man. I think offensively, still 75 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: has some steps to take. And then it makes creates 76 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: another question like if you were the Hawks, if you 77 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: if you knew you had a clean Capella trade in hand, 78 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: I think you'd feel better about drafting Klinging. But right 79 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: now you're gonna have three basically pure centers on your 80 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: team with Capella, Coong Wu, and Klingon if you go 81 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: that route. 82 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, Resa sche does seem to be the guy that's 83 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 2: at least mocked to the to the Hawks right now. 84 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: I know that that's the case. In Sam Vescini's latest 85 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: mock draft for The Athletic, the same for Jonathan Gavoni. 86 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 2: Over a ESPN you mentioned Alex Sar. He hasn't yet 87 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 2: worked out for Atlanta, even though he was literally here 88 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 2: in the city at overtime elite getting in some ball 89 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 2: handling drills. You're saying, maybe this is a bit of 90 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: a smoke screen. John back, when you're working for the Grizzlies, 91 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: did you ever pull a smoke screen like this, like 92 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: trying to send out signals we're taking this guy, but 93 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 2: we're really just after a trade out here. 94 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,239 Speaker 1: You know, a lot of times we weren't really drafting 95 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: high enough for that to be a valid thing, you know, like, hey, 96 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 1: let's put a smoke screen out there at number thirty 97 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: seven like that, nobody cares. You know. The year, the 98 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: year we had the fourth pick was was sort of 99 00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: interesting in that respect, but it was really it was 100 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: really what was going on ahead of. 101 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 2: Us, where there was more injury, Like we still. 102 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: Weren't quite high enough to really then make some make 103 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: something like that Stigga. It's really like one two three 104 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: where you can really do some stuff with the smoke 105 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: screens and maybe get people to trade up and otherwise 106 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: they wouldn't have. Uh So, I can't really say from 107 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: personal experience that there was like a really good one, 108 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: Like there were a couple times where there were like 109 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: false rumors out there about guys we liked we would 110 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: just let people ride with it because we thought that 111 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: was like, you know, sort of a mini smoke screen 112 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: on its own. But I can't really say that there's 113 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: anything like truly intentional like that, like I'm discussing here 114 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: with maybe the Hawks could have done. 115 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: With sor Yeah, it seems who knows. I mean, I 116 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 2: guess during the Jabari Smith Pollo Bancaro draft, we thought 117 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 2: Jabari was gonna be the number one pick, like the 118 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: morning of the draft before it ended up being Pollo 119 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: to the Magic there. But yeah, it seems like Rishia say, 120 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: in the mix for number one, Sar seems like a 121 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: Washington guy for sure, and then Kling and as a 122 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: desirable type of player. Do you think it's reasonable, though, 123 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: that the Hawks could actually trade back. We don't see 124 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 2: that from the number one pick all that often. 125 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: No, we don't. 126 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: The last one I think was the Tatum Folds draft, right, 127 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 2: and it worked worked out pretty well for Boston trading 128 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 2: down there. They also felt pretty assured that the Lakers 129 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 2: were going to take Lonzo Ball at number two, which 130 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: I think helped them feel comfortable trading down to three 131 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 2: and knowing they could still get Tatum, and I guess 132 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 2: it's sort of like that if you're the Hawks, that 133 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: you could trade down to three and knowing that the 134 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 2: Washington's gonna take Sart too, if you're down to one 135 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 2: of the one of the other two guys, I don't know, 136 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:46,679 Speaker 2: maybe you could do something like that. I just don't 137 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: know what's out there for them to do it, because 138 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 2: I mean, Houston is a team at three right now? 139 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: Is Houston trading three to one? Did their team people 140 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: talk about trading down or trading back too. 141 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 3: Well, let's stay on that Atlanta Hawks thought train there 142 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 3: because we're in mediocre land here in Atlanta. We've watched 143 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 3: Trey here in year six and I know you wrote 144 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 3: about it when Trey went out. This is the first 145 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 3: time we get to see the team without Trey Young 146 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 3: because he was injured and what happened with Dejontay Murray. 147 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 3: Mediocre Land just another five hundred type team, But they've 148 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 3: got so many guys that are invested in John in 149 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 3: Trey and Dejonte and DeAndre Hunter and Clcapella and bog 150 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 3: Down mcdonvic soon to be Jalen Johnson. I just gotta 151 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 3: ask you, because you know so well, what is going 152 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 3: to happen in your eyes when it comes to free 153 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 3: agency and that time. Are they going to make a 154 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 3: trade with one of these guys in Trey Dejonte or 155 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 3: could it be somebody else like you mentioned a Clint Capella. 156 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: Did they trade John Collins yet? 157 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 3: I know that went under the radar? 158 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: Did that happen? Did that finally happen? Yeah, it's they 159 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: have to make a move basically because like they're in 160 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: the luxury tax just with the players they have having 161 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: the first pick, so that something has to shake out here, 162 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: something has to move. Sidique Bay is also restricted free agent, 163 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,119 Speaker 1: so it's gonna be interesting to see what happens there. 164 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think I think basically the crux of 165 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: it is Trey and Dejonte don't really fit and those 166 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: are the two guys that they could trade that they 167 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: have value. Part of the reason I think that we've 168 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: seen that the Hawks haven't been able to do anything 169 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: with like Hunter Capella or these other guys, or it 170 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: took them so long to make a deal with Collins, 171 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: is just they can't get anything for these guys, and 172 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: like with their contracts, people the other teams just aren't 173 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: valuing them and so that that's why I think it's 174 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: been hard for the Hawks to get any deal to 175 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: a finish. I mean, they basically didn't make any personnel 176 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: moves last year at all other than the Collins trade. 177 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: You know, once their draft was done, that was a wrap. 178 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: The only only thing they did was promote Trent Forrest 179 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: from a two way. So they do have to do 180 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: something now. I do think there's a chance, like, especially 181 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: if they pick recess A, you could see them doing 182 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: something with Hunter where maybe they just move off him 183 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: and not really are really that word with what they 184 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: get back. But they have to cut money somewhere because 185 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: we know they're not going to pay the tax, and 186 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: I think the first domino is still Trey and Dejonte. 187 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: That seemingly one of them needs to go because that's 188 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: where they can get some value back. 189 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 3: M hmm. 190 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 2: How about vit Crachie. I know you're a big fan 191 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 2: just like us. I think probably three of the four 192 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 2: biggest VT Crachi fans on Earth. 193 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: I actually held myself back from starting with him and 194 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: then working to the other guys. 195 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm holding myself back seeing that twenty three Hawks 196 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 3: jersey over your shoulder and saying maybe that's Wesley matthews jersey, 197 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 3: but he did wear thirty two last year. And I 198 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 3: was going to say, come on, they sign Wesley Matthews. 199 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 1: This is as as an in season tournament enthusiast, this 200 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: is the atl jersey for the twenty three in season tournament. 201 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 3: We go, oh wow. 202 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: So it wasn't. It wasn't for any particular player. 203 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 3: That's all we got going for us here the N 204 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 3: Season Tournament here in Atlanta. 205 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 2: That's all we got playing team won the N Season 206 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 2: Tournament last year, So maybe it could happen again this year. John, 207 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 2: I teased this. I said, I was gonna ask you 208 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: the dumbest question of the entire twenty twenty four draft cycle. 209 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 2: So here it is. I see that Ron Holland was 210 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 2: number one on your big board in the midst of 211 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 2: all of your draft preparation. Did you ever think that 212 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 2: Ron Holland sounds kind of like John Hollander? Yeah, I 213 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 2: told you it was dumb. 214 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: Man, Wow, you didn't. 215 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 2: Think it was gonna be that dumb. I mean for 216 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 2: mental level, it's like I had steeled myself for this 217 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: and yet you still like went beyond. 218 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: It's like at another level removed from what I had 219 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: prepared myself for. Yeah, I got, I got nothing. 220 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: Well, okay, that's a fair enough segue. Though, who do 221 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 2: you think is the best Night prospect? I'm surprised to 222 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: see that Holland has remained number one on your board 223 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 2: because you look around some of the other mock drafts 224 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 2: and like on Sam Vassini's mocked he's going thirteenth. Meanwhile, 225 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: Mantas Buzellis, who you say has debt left shremth type 226 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 2: upside love to see that he seems to be going 227 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 2: higher in these mock drafts, even though like maybe agree 228 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: with you that Holland could be a better prospect. 229 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Holland is almost a full year younger 230 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: and was the better player at IGNITE last year. So 231 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: I'm sort of I'm sort of thrown by how Buzzellis 232 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: has leapfrogged him, and how several others have leap progged him. 233 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: I just thought you, like Holland was the number one 234 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: guy coming into the year he put up despite everything 235 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: that went wrong with Ignite. You compare his numbers to 236 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: what like Jalen Green did to what Daniels from New 237 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: Orleans did to what Jonathan Kaminga did, and they they're 238 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: as good or better than all those guys, and yet 239 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 1: everyone seems to have soured on him. So I'm not 240 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: sure what's going on there, but for me, he's still 241 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: the number one guy in a week class. 242 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: Let's get to some Zach Edy talk, John because I 243 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 3: know he's from Oh you better believe he's from the GTA, 244 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 3: the Greater Toronto area. Played a lot of hockey as 245 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 3: a kid, but that seven four kid decided to play 246 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 3: basketball after a while. That was a great right up 247 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 3: on the athletic to realize that Zach Edy, yeah, put 248 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 3: the skates on. And then I think it was at 249 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 3: eleven or something like that he decided, Man, maybe a 250 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 3: little too big. 251 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 2: I don't want to be Dan o'chara. 252 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 3: Nice, nice, yes, said Dan o char reference. Very well 253 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,599 Speaker 3: done well speaking of him and all the teams that 254 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 3: potentially want to trade down. I see the Sacramento Kings 255 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 3: at thirteen, I think they got to get big about 256 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: someone's playing the center. I understand that you probably don't 257 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 3: want to start Zach Edy beside him, but there's lots 258 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 3: of potential there. I see that as a possibility, But 259 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 3: where do you think that Eadie should be drafted? If 260 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 3: we can ask you that one. 261 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: So I have him, I had him like twenty fourth 262 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: or twenty fifth on my board, which I think is 263 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: a little lower than a lot of other people have him. 264 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: Adam twenty fifth. So he needs to be drafted somewhere 265 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: where they need a center, right like Sacramento for all 266 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: sa Bonus gives him they they backup center has been 267 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 1: an open sore, right, So if you can, if you 268 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: can draft Dye and have him come in and play 269 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: back up five right away, then then you've you've done something. 270 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 2: Now. 271 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: The one thing with Sacramento like they want to play fast, right, 272 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,439 Speaker 1: and so I'm not sure how well he fits in 273 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: with that. So there are some other teams maybe that 274 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: that I might feel a little better seeing him where 275 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: the tempo is gonna be a little slower and they 276 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: have a little more chances to just run through, you know, 277 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 1: half court set, give him the ball with the second. 278 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 2: Unit, that kind of thing. 279 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: So, uh, it's it's gonna be it's gonna be really 280 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: interested in though to me, to see who pulls a 281 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: trigger on because he's such a unique prospect in terms 282 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: of what he's going to face at the defensive end. 283 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: And there's this divergence with college centers, right because the 284 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: game is completely different for them in college than it 285 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: is at the pros in a way that it isn't 286 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: for the guards and wings as much, and so that 287 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: makes it a tougher evaluation in some ways. How is 288 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: he going to do defensively against NBA offense? Is he 289 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: going to be bobon or is he you know, is 290 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: he going to be able to you know, have more 291 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: mobility than that, be able to get enough stop so 292 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: you can keep him on the court for his offense 293 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: really regardless of who the opponent is. 294 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was interested on your big board that you 295 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 2: kind of cop to being a center hater and you 296 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 2: even just put all of them into one big tier 297 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 2: called centers. 298 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 3: Why is that? 299 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: Why is it more that the bus potential is so 300 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: high or that you can find serviceable rim running centers around. 301 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: This center position has become devalued. Yeah, because you can 302 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: there are other things you can do. You can take 303 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: you can take a four and make them a five. 304 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: You can uh do different things to junk up the 305 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: game and and the bar the bar for being a 306 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: truly impactful center who can stay on the floor and 307 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: in all kinds of matchups in a playoff series is 308 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: really high. So it's actually it's easier to evaluate in 309 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: some ways because the center position there's a there's a 310 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: minimum height requirement, right, Like there's there's only so many 311 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: guys who are this tall, So picking out the ones 312 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: who are likely to play in the league is in 313 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: some ways easier than at the other positions. 314 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 2: Uh. 315 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: But I also think that the the value in the 316 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: draft is really finding those guys in the six six 317 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: to six nine range who can do all the all 318 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: the switching, the position changing. You can play multiples of 319 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: them at the same time, whereas centers, you know, there's 320 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: this there's always this constraint that you can only have 321 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: one guy of that size on the court at the 322 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: same time usually, And so that's why the value in 323 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: the draft tends to really tilt that way. 324 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 2: Gone are the days of Mark Desol and Zach Randolph. 325 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 2: Am I right. 326 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny when we were actually talking about that, 327 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: when at Mark's Jersey retirement, I was talking about that 328 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: with a couple of former Grizzlies players, like could could 329 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: we even like would we have just gotten run off 330 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: the floor if we tried to play like this today, 331 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: because yeah, I mean the game, the game has changed, 332 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: and trying to play multiple big, bigger, slower players like that, 333 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: it's just it's too perimeter, it's too fast, it's just 334 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: really hard at the defensive end. 335 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 2: I saw some of Randolph's perimeter possessions back when he 336 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 2: was a New York Knick. Maybe you could have developed 337 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: the game there. That could have been somewhere. But uh, 338 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 2: you mentioned that everybody's looking for these guys that are six' 339 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: five to six, nine switchable, defenders can kind of do. 340 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 2: Everything and there's definitely a bunch of wings in this. 341 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 2: Draft you got the couple of guys From Theick knight 342 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 2: In holland And, boozellos and then you've got Like Stefan, 343 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 2: Castle Cody, Williams Devin Carter, dalton connect outside Of, holland 344 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 2: who's number one on your? Board is there one of 345 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 2: these wings that you see being really successful in THE. 346 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 2: NBA i really Like Stefan castle From. Connecticut who IS i, 347 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 2: mean he's six.' six i know he's talked to himself 348 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 2: about himself as a. 349 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: Point guard maybe he can play POINT but i like 350 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: HIM as i really like him as, a wing as 351 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: a secondary ball. HANDLER too i think. HE defends i 352 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: think he Showed at yukon he can play, a role 353 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: come in and play. A ROLE but i also think 354 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: he has more in his bag than he was able 355 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: to show there that he can be a good pick 356 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: and role player and if the shot, comes around he's 357 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: almost like A Mini paul george AND so i think 358 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: there's a lot of upside there with also a pretty. 359 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: Decent FLOOR so i have him number two on. 360 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 2: My, board yeah that WAS something i was wanting to ask. 361 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 2: You too when you're doing all this, evaluation stuff can 362 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 2: you see a Guy Like stefan castle WHO'S saying I 363 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 2: was i'm a, POINT guard i played point guard in. 364 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 2: High school how much do you factor in what was 365 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 2: going on with the guy in? High school because, To me, i'm, like, 366 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 2: well yeah you were a player who was able to 367 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: go INTO the nba one year after. HIGH school i 368 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: would have given you the ball to bring it up 369 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 2: every single. Time Too if i'm in. High, school. 370 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: Yeah it's it's. IT'S different, i mean some of these 371 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 1: guys play on stacked high, school teams so it's a 372 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: little like it's not like it's not like you just 373 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 1: go into your town's public high school like when we were, 374 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: you know when we were kids. Or whatever so it's 375 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: a little, different now but uh Usually and castle is 376 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: a little DIFFERENT because i think he didn't get as 377 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: many eyeballs on him like at some of these events 378 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: at the end of the year Like The hoop summit 379 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: and the h And The, jordan classic where guys scouts 380 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: can see guys like in a little bit different role 381 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: than they maybe end up playing for their, college team 382 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: but still against really high. Level competition, so yeah it's 383 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: sort of been a little bit of an unknown WITH cast, 384 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: i mean you've seen enough of his of his Reps at, 385 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 1: yukon though to kind of have an idea of where 386 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: where the probability is there and so, to speak like 387 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: you wouldn't probably wouldn't quite calm a, pure one but 388 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 1: he definitely has some ball handling trades where he can 389 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: be a. 390 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 2: Secondary, Guy yeah i'm still a little Burned On, patrick 391 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 2: WILLIAMS who i heard could have been a point guard, 392 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 2: as well and that guy he's not doing a ton 393 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 2: of ball handling at. This point for. The balls another 394 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 2: EVALUATION question i had, for you kind of relating to 395 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 2: a Guy Like mantes bozzellis who has a nice, looking 396 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 2: shot the mechanics, seem good just doesn't go in all, 397 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 2: The time whereas you'll have other Players Like. Cody williams 398 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,400 Speaker 2: his jumper doesn't necessarily look, the smoothest but he shot 399 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 2: forty percent from three on very limited attempts during his, 400 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: college season which is more important having an ugly shot 401 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: that goes in or a good looking shot that doesn't 402 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 2: go in like which is easier to actually turn into. 403 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: A shooter that's actually a topic of some debate because 404 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: the argument is that if somebody's form is good and 405 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: they still aren't, making shots maybe it's just lack, of, 406 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: talent right and where whereas if it's, bad form maybe. 407 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: That's fixable the, other, thing though is that just looking 408 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: at three point percentages can be a. Little misleading the 409 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: things we found is that shooters tell on themselves a 410 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: little bit by how frequently they shoot. From three, you 411 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: know sometimes just a case of, terrible judgment but a 412 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: lot of times good shooters will just take more shots 413 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,479 Speaker 1: from three and more, difficult shots and the bad shooters 414 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: will only take the wide open ones or if they 415 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: have a very, slow release they're sort of constrained. To 416 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: that and then the other thing to look at is 417 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 1: they're free throw. Shooting numbers and then THE thing i 418 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: would add on top of that is one of the 419 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: things that really helps is watching guys shoot before, a 420 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 1: game because you'll see them take so. MANY shots i 421 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: mean you can almost see them take a half season's 422 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: worth of three pointers in one pre. Game set and 423 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: so tracking that seeing how you know how accurate, they 424 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: are how their, form looks and you're right next to 425 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: the court. FOR it I think i think that is 426 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: very helpful from a scouting perspective. As well. 427 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 3: Civil question, For, you john which team is most likely 428 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 3: to make a trade At. 429 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 1: THE draft i would Say either Houston. Or memphis. 430 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 2: It Might be houston trading. With, men yeah it seems 431 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 2: like a nice match made in. Heaven. 432 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 3: There yeah and one guy you, Just Mentioned. Paul george 433 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: he made the Comparison To brannie james as Either A 434 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 3: derek White Or drew holiday type. Of Player and i'm 435 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 3: fascinated By The bronnie james story because it's such a heart. Warming, 436 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,479 Speaker 3: story obviously the cardiac arrest that he's recovered from less 437 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 3: than a, year ago And Now rich paul coming out, 438 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 3: and saying he said, to me he just wants to. 439 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 3: Get drafted he doesn't care about where he, gets drafted 440 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 3: even though he's reportedly just working out For the lakers And. 441 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 3: The suns it's a. Great story where do you think? 442 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 3: HE goes i know we've we kind of jump all 443 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 3: over the place with where a player will be drafted 444 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 3: in this type, Of draft but is there an idea 445 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:14,880 Speaker 3: For Where bronnie james will end up. 446 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: Pick number fifty five To The Los angeles lakers. 447 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: Locking in It's very it's very odd when. 448 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: You like you feel more confident about pick fifty five 449 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: than pick one the day before. The draft. 450 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 2: It's like an anti smoke Screen the lakers Potentially Drafting. 451 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: Bronnie james it's a fan, you know you clear out 452 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: all the smoke in. THE way i saw that you 453 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: Did have bronni IN your i do not. Get It tier, 454 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,719 Speaker 2: TIER thirteen i believe pretty low rated Down with Tristan, 455 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 2: da SILVA who i kind of thought was going to 456 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 2: show up as one of. Your, sleepers john you, have 457 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: sleepers you have one, super sleeper and you have. Quasi 458 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 2: sleepers all three. Separate tiers my first question is what 459 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 2: makes somebody a quasi sleeper versus just a. Regular sleeper. 460 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: The regular sleepers are the ones who got into my, 461 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: top TWENTY so i feel a little better about, those 462 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: Guys So OsO Igadaro And. Trey alexander and then my 463 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: super sleeper WAS because i wasn't even sure he was 464 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: going to keep his name in the draft because he 465 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: was that much of. A sleeper and Then That's jonathan 466 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: Muggo From.

As well 569 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 3: just more conversations HAPPENING then, i assume, Absolutely right and 570 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 3: so THE party i guess doesn't start till after, day 571 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 3: two but the conversations begin after. 572 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: DAY one, i imagine, uh yeah yeah for, those yeah 573 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: for those second round, picks especially and then, we're gonna, 574 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: you know we're going. To see the other thing is 575 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: teams can negotiate with their own free agents And teams, 576 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: I'VE yeah i of course would have never, done this 577 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: but some teams have negotiated with other teams free Agents before. 578 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 2: July First what. 579 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: I've heard stories about, it anyway and so you're going 580 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: to see some of. THAT too i think like, some 581 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: teams as soon as that first, rounds in, they're gonna, 582 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: you know get on the phone and work on their 583 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: side hustle and free agency because it's a really quick turnaround. 584 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 3: This year so even the likeliness of a bigger trade could, 585 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 3: be heightened right like with actual players that are on, 586 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 3: it CURRENTLY on, NBA rosters, i imagine just, because yeah 587 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 3: just because, You're, there yeah. 588 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 2: We're going to see. Some, TRADES well. I, hope so 589 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 2: because the LAST thing i was kind of Curious about 590 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: john was if you kind of wrapped your head around 591 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 2: THE new cba that's going into effect and The first 592 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 2: apron And second, apron rules which are very restrictive for 593 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: what these teams that are spending so much money, can 594 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 2: trade can sign. Free agents is that going to put 595 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 2: a damper on things during the draft during free agency 596 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 2: this summer as teams kind of figure out where the 597 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 2: loopholes are and what kind of moves they can, Actually 598 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 2: pull it is going to put a damper on some 599 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 2: of the trading because there are some teams who just 600 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 2: that their possibilities are so constrained. 601 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: Now they may end up doing smaller deals than the 602 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: types of deals we would have seen in. The past 603 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: so that that could be part of. It too, you 604 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: know you can't aggregate and you can and you can 605 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: only take back less than you. Sent out so now 606 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: you're talking about doing trades with guys more towards the 607 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 1: back end of. Your roster maybe it's just a different 608 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: kind of mentality for. THE trades i think we could 609 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 1: see more kind of small fry deals because of that 610 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: exciting times. 611 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 3: Tasty, STUFF yeah i could have some small fries.

Several years 669 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 3: he said no To The charlotte, hornets job but now 670 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 3: he Is the calves. Head coach, soon anyway up down 671 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 3: On the Cavaliers Hiring kenny atkinson as their, head, Coach, 672 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 3: Strip yeah. 673 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 2: I'm up, on this and yeah you Mentioned. THE hornets 674 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 2: i guess he did say yes to the job before then, 675 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 2: say no, AND honestly i would rather Have This cleveland 676 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 2: cavalier's job with the talent that they have There, In, Mitchell, 677 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 2: garland Mobley. And alan we'll see what ends up Happening 678 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 2: with Mitchell, and Garland Though jason lloyd just Reported At 679 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 2: the Athletic that mitchell is expected any day now to 680 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,919 Speaker 2: sign a lucrative extension to Remain. In cleveland So Maybe 681 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 2: Kenny Atkinson donovan mitchell not necessarily a, package deal but at. 682 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 2: Least encouraging And From jason, lloyd's reporting this was apparently 683 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 2: it came Down To kenny Atkinson And, james barrego and 684 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 2: it's quite Likely That dan gilbert stepped in as the 685 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 2: governor AT the kas, And said i'm more Interested In. 686 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 2: Kenny ATKINSON and i think that's fair because one of 687 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,879 Speaker 2: the things you saw when the report Broke That kenny 688 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 2: atkinson was going to be the Guy. FOR cleveland woj 689 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 2: mentioned that this was going to be Huge For evan. 690 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 2: MOBLE development i think that is key For. The Cavaliers 691 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 2: kenny atkinson gets a lot of credit For Turning al 692 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 2: Horford And brook lopez into three, point shooters guys that 693 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 2: had good touch and were able to expand their game 694 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 2: out to. The perimeter that's obviously gonna be Huge For 695 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 2: evan mobley. Going forward he's also got a Relationship With 696 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 2: jared Allen And kris lavert from his time There. In brooklyn, 697 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 2: SO yeah i think this. IS good i think definitely 698 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 2: an UPGRADE. From Jb. 699 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 3: Bicker, steph yeah You Said. Jared allen part of the 700 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 3: reason why he was let go slash Resigned from brooklyn 701 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 3: was because he wanted To Start jared Allen Over, DeAndre 702 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 3: Jordan But kevin Durant And, kyie irving who had just 703 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 3: signed there that was their, first season didn't. Like that 704 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 3: he just wanted to go to the more. Talented players 705 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 3: so he's got that. Relationship SURE what i also like 706 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 3: is that he spent years With The Golden, state warriors 707 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 3: who Obviously Made steph, curry excel and so he saw 708 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 3: how guards played Together in Steph and clay and that 709 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 3: bodes Well For, donovan mitchell who seemingly has approved this 710 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 3: Signing And, darius garland which is another key Here which 711 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 3: i'm at. Four guys they think they have four talented Guys, 712 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 3: in Mitchell, in Garland in Allen, and mobley and so 713 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,280 Speaker 3: to get the most Out Of, Darius Scarland kenny atkinson 714 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 3: is going to have that on, his BACK and i 715 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 3: think like he got the most Out Of dangel Russell 716 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 3: in brooklyn in his. YOUNGER days i know it's, you 717 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 3: Know It's, dangel russell and it didn't work out all, 718 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 3: that well but that was The Best. Dangel RUSSELL and 719 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 3: i know he Made An All star game and that's 720 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 3: Just An all. Star GAME but i think he Was 721 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 3: with this is going to be a second attempt as 722 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 3: being a head coach essentially and being With The Golden 723 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 3: state warriors and a class organization has got. To help 724 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,320 Speaker 3: and so this is the guy again he said no 725 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 3: To The charlotte, hornet job, declined IT which i. Get 726 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 3: It The charlotte hornets should be. More popular they're not 727 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,600 Speaker 3: as a basketball team IN, The NBA so i get why. 728 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 3: He left, You Know steve clifford. Also left it's an interesting. 729 00:36:56,040 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 3: Scenario THERE but i just do think those years off 730 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 3: probably helped a. Little bit and That Whole Kevin Durant 731 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 3: kyrie irving thing that just wasn't all that Fair For. 732 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 3: Kenny ATKINSON so i think this is a good second attempt. 733 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 2: For, him yeah everybody was a fan Of What kenny, 734 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,479 Speaker 2: atkinson did when he was With The, brooklyn nets getting 735 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 2: that ragtag bunch to the playoffs and getting the best 736 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 2: performances out of Guys Like, Karris Lavert jared allen was 737 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 2: his breakout seasons were There in Brooklyn With kenny atkinson as, 738 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,440 Speaker 2: the coach and then You Mentioned. DiAngelo russell he did 739 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 2: make an all star team that was the best he's. 740 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 2: Ever been probably the one piece that was missing was like, Superstar, 741 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 2: Relationships right so you Go To golden state where they've 742 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 2: got some, huge names you feel and figure out what 743 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 2: those guys are like, in person, you know in the. 744 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 2: Locker ROOM so i think this is a good move For, 745 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,799 Speaker 2: the CAVALIERS though i will say it was a little 746 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 2: Odd That donovan Mitchell And darius garland were not mentioned 747 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 2: at all when they were talking about why they Went After. 748 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 2: Kenny atkinson it was because of the Development, of mobley 749 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 2: the relationships with The previous. Nets guys it felt kind 750 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 2: of to me Like the cavs weren't willing to commit 751 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 2: to saying both of these guys are gonna, Be here 752 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 2: and Apparently With jason lloyd Reporting about mitchell signing, an 753 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 2: Extension maybe garland will be on. The move we. 754 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 3: Shall, see yeah that's interesting.

JJ redick 800 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,919 Speaker 2: i also wonders that the most times that a coach 801 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 2: has ever said IN the f word in his introductory, 802 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 2: YES conference. 803 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,360 Speaker 3: I would have, to, THINK yeah i gotta. 804 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,919 Speaker 2: Say. Yes yeah i'm interested to SEE what, jj does 805 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 2: because clearly he's a smart guy. Basketball wise he's. Hard 806 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 2: working the guy's podcasting and broadcasting all the time up. 807 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 2: Until now he said IN his uh, press conference he's gonna. 808 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 2: Use math He's got Lebron and ad on. His side 809 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,320 Speaker 2: these are all, IMPORTANT things i think For, the lakers 810 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 2: since they've been a bottom five three point shooting team. 811 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 2: Last season he says He wants lebron to shoot more 812 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 2: threes after he shot forty one percent the best of. 813 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 2: His career that's a good way to save his body 814 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 2: a little bit and Still allow lebron to take over. 815 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 2: When necessary then he also mentioned that He Wants anthony 816 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 2: davis involved as a hub of, the offense kind of Shouting, 817 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:12,319 Speaker 2: Out Jokic. Demonta sabonis that's definitely not something we've Seen From. 818 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 2: Anthony davis really, skilled player, great defender. Great scorer how 819 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 2: is he as? A creator i guess we're going to. 820 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 2: Find out it was curious to, me though that he 821 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 2: didn't Mention D'Angelo Russell Or jared vanderbilt mentioned basically all the, 822 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 2: Other Guys, Ruey Hachamura, Austin Reied's, Max Christy Jalen, hood 823 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 2: schaffino younger guys On. The lakers But maybe Dilo and 824 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 2: vando are still kind, of uh. You know but at 825 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 2: the VERY least i, think that, you know for all 826 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 2: the zeroing in and zeroing out and zeroing back IN, 827 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,320 Speaker 2: on jj this seems like it was going to be, 828 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 2: the choice even if They're saying lebron had nothing to 829 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 2: do WITH. M, m yeah it will be interesting to 830 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 2: See if Dilo and vando will be On THE outso 831 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 2: i am searching right now who WAS At jj redix 832 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 2: press conference because there were. 833 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 3: Players There gave vincent. WAS there i don't have the 834 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 3: list in front, of ME but i just Remember. GAVE 835 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 3: vincent i Guess because I'm A gabe vincent fan and 836 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 3: THAT'S why i. Remember that but it was a bunch 837 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 3: of the smaller. Name players lebron and ad were. Not 838 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,479 Speaker 3: THERE but i, do think as you just Mentioned About, 839 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 3: anthony davis sort of Being the jokchesque hub of. THE 840 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:20,720 Speaker 3: offense i kind of LOOK At jj redick and watching 841 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 3: him broadcast and podcasts throughout these, three years it reminds 842 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 3: me a little Bit Of steve kerr And How steve 843 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 3: kerr he was in the front office Of The, phoenix 844 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 3: suns but then was JUST a tnt broadcaster and saw 845 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,399 Speaker 3: it from a, different PERSPECTIVE and i think THAT Helped 846 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 3: jj reddick just simply look at coaching a, different way 847 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 3: look at basketball a, different WAY and I See steve 848 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 3: kerr in that. Same light and that's What the warriors 849 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 3: were as a hub. For them It wasn't staph bringing the. 850 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 3: Ball up that's what. He Changed For, mark jackson It 851 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 3: Was draymond green a lot of the time and just 852 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 3: those guys flying. Around, HIM so, i mean this is 853 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 3: a very different Team Because lebron james is on this. 854 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:54,439 Speaker 3: Freaking team so it's a different it's a, different hub 855 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 3: but it is a similar idea that we have space 856 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 3: that we're covering with all. These shooters let's get a 857 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,279 Speaker 3: center that can find Everybody And, ANTHONY davis i think 858 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 3: we'll be willing to to make trades and we're going 859 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 3: to see a lot of great. Court MAPPING as jj 860 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,399 Speaker 3: said on the podcast and on the broadcast, as well 861 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 3: he is just coached. His kid he's coached his son 862 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 3: and that's all. He's done so people were easy to, 863 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 3: ridicule this this guy, head coach he's never. Coached before 864 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 3: we don't know how he. WILL do i honestly, don't 865 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 3: KNOW but i do think the experience of just being 866 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 3: on the, other side getting interviewed for a bunch of 867 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 3: head coaches has helped him and. Given him it's just 868 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 3: the prospect of how hard it is to be a. 869 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,399 Speaker 3: Head coach it's gonna be, freaking HARD and i think 870 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,759 Speaker 3: just stepping away for a few years probably helps him. 871 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,320 Speaker 3: See that but he obviously wants to take on, that 872 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 3: challenge so that'll. Be Fun, it's la so that's a 873 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 3: it's a. Big challenge we just talked About like charlotte and, 874 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 3: He talked he Talked. To Toronto joe missoula wanted him 875 00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:02,439 Speaker 3: to be an, assistant coach asked him on the. Golf 876 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 3: course ACCORDING To jj reddick in the, Publicatory podcast. 877 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 2: But this is. 878 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 3: Another, level yeah This. Is la so it's going to 879 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 3: be a lot of questions like. THAT one i just 880 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:14,360 Speaker 3: mentioned about how do you feel about these misconceptions? Of 881 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,359 Speaker 3: you and, right away as, YOU said i don't give up. 882 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 3: Right away the first, press conference it felt LIKE a 883 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:26,880 Speaker 3: ufc press conference in a way because everybody's everybody's, BLEEPING 884 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 3: well i shouldn't. Say that Not everybody ruppelinka did, NOT 885 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,959 Speaker 3: swear i, don't THINK but jj was and he was okay. 886 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 2: With. IT yeah jj had some GREAT lines i thought 887 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,360 Speaker 2: at the. Press conference he was, basically, SAYING yeah i 888 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 2: wasn't mad That the lakers were Talking To. Dan hurley 889 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 2: he's a TWO time ncaa Champion and i'm a two 890 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 2: time Fifty Five Swiss youth. LEAGUE champion i thought that was. 891 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 2: Very funny he seems to be at least pretty self 892 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 2: aware about where he stands. In things and it's gonna 893 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 2: be a pressure pack SITUATION for jj Because the lakers 894 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 2: did not have a. Great roster, you know they're going 895 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 2: to be Bringing back lebron and it seems to me 896 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,839 Speaker 2: like they'll Bring Back austin reeves and some of these other, 897 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,240 Speaker 2: younger guys but clearly they're going to want to upgrade 898 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,800 Speaker 2: the roster and they're gonna need to if they actually 899 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 2: want to be able to challenge for another Championship while 900 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 2: lebron's still little at the very tail end of.

Wing positions but with 939 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 2: quickly THERE who i assume they're going to bring back 940 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 2: on a restricted free. Agency Deal the raptors seem to 941 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 2: at least have the outlines of what they want their 942 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 2: team to be.

It 946 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:16,440 Speaker 3: out his number one skill is. His passing the interesting 947 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 3: part is signing a guy like this to a, monster 948 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 3: DEAL which i don't Know if i'll ever be able 949 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,840 Speaker 3: to wrap my.

The BALL and i, do think as, you said, the, 952 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,239 Speaker 3: points rebounds assists going up a career hides in true, 953 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:38,759 Speaker 3: shooting percentage, rebounding percentage. ASSIST percentage i say all that 954 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:40,800 Speaker 3: NOT because i want to talk. About stats but he is. 955 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 3: Locked in he's focused on getting better and he did 956 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 3: that and he went through that. Year one he had 957 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,959 Speaker 3: a bit of a difficult. Year two but he wants. 958 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 3: To grow he shows he can grow at the end of, 959 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 3: YOU know i guess It was february at the end 960 00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,319 Speaker 3: of a game Against The San.

It works but 983 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,879 Speaker 3: you gotta Believe In, scottie barnes and you gotta believe 984 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,759 Speaker 3: that this contract is who cares about the dollars because really, 985 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 3: it AGAIN like i, just said what are these what are? 986 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 3: These figures what? Are they these are. Big numbers these 987 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:22,399 Speaker 3: are huge obviously BECAUSE THE nba tv deal is going 988 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 3: up and the salary cap is, going up and so 989 00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 3: he's just paid as a max and it just. Looks 990 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 3: right it looks huge, right now but eventually people will 991 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:33,719 Speaker 3: be making more. Than this, EVEN so i don't find 992 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 3: it a big deal for a young guy who's taking 993 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,439 Speaker 3: on more on himself every single offseason to be given. 994 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 3: THIS responsibility i THINK he. 995 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 2: I think he. 996 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,959 Speaker 3: Owns it he doesn't just he doesn't need scores, around 997 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:45,440 Speaker 3: him that's, for sure because you're looking him in the 998 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 3: fourth quarter situations and he. 999 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: He. 1000 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,279 Speaker 3: Doesn't struggle but there are some times where he can't 1001 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:54,239 Speaker 3: score the ball and try has to do. Too much 1002 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 3: but that's also up To dark oriyakovic and getting those 1003 00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 3: guys around him being able to score a rond HIM 1004 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 3: and I think barnes will. Find them so this is 1005 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 3: a new season for, them all. You know all, that 1006 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 3: said they made two big trades in the middle of, 1007 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 3: the season so this is this is a new start 1008 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 3: for them and to be whole in. Training CAMP so 1009 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:15,439 Speaker 3: i think it'll. 1010 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 1: Be. 1011 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 2: Good yeah you mentioned on a podcast last week you 1012 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 2: Think the raptors will be better next season compared to 1013 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 2: how they were. This season only twenty five wins, this 1014 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 2: season but by the end of the year they were 1015 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 2: playing to keep their, draft pick which didn't end. Up 1016 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 2: happening but that's basically they just didn't have guys. Out, 1017 00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:32,399 Speaker 2: There yeah so what do you think is a good 1018 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 2: season For? The, raptors yeah. 1019 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:37,279 Speaker 3: Great question so if It's him Quickly and barrett as 1020 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 3: your your, core three it's say at least thirty seven thirty. Big, 1021 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 3: jumpers yeah you gotta be. Big, jumpers yeah it's it's 1022 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 3: Like the rockets, last year you know that type. 1023 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:52,239 Speaker 2: Of. 1024 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 3: JUMP yeah i think that that close to five hundred 1025 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:57,759 Speaker 3: is a. Good season if you don't make quite. Make 1026 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 3: it what do you think season For The? 1027 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 2: Toronto raptors they could be coming for that nine seed 1028 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 2: can be coming With that bulls. Nine Seed the bulls 1029 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:07,880 Speaker 2: have had it on lockdown for the past couple. Of 1030 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 2: years but as we're, seeing here things have Changed. IN chicago. 1031 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 3: I hope things change In The eastern conference where we're 1032 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 3: not talking about a thirty eight and forty four. Win, 1033 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 3: team gosh, all right, next topic speaking Of. Those bulls 1034 00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 3: got to hear your Opinion On alex caruso And The josh. 1035 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 3: Giddy deal so let's get it up Down the Bulls 1036 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:32,920 Speaker 3: Trading alex caruso, straight up no bicks To the Thunder For. 1037 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 2: JOSH giddy I got i gotta go ninety percent, down. 1038 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,279 Speaker 2: HERE tasks i have, many thoughts. Many thoughts, number one 1039 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 2: it's crazy they didn't get a pick From the thunder 1040 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,160 Speaker 2: Considering the thunder have the most picks, to trade and 1041 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 2: as we've seen, from reporting Like the bulls have been 1042 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:52,920 Speaker 2: in talks dating back to last. TRADE deadline i know 1043 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,600 Speaker 2: they talked With. The Warriors Maybe moses moody could have 1044 00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 2: come over in a Trade Trace jackson davis plus a 1045 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 2: couple of picks as a report That The sacramento kings 1046 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 2: offered the. Thirteenth pick so at least there was enough 1047 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:08,080 Speaker 2: interest that you would Think the bulls would actually be 1048 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 2: able to start some sort of a bidding War, for 1049 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:13,839 Speaker 2: caruso a guy who's going to be a perfect plug 1050 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 2: and play player for, ok See but chicago hadn't made 1051 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,800 Speaker 2: a trade in, three years So maybe ak had just 1052 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 2: lost a little bit of the. Negotiating juice not that 1053 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 2: he has, great juice but you don't do something for, 1054 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 2: three years. You lose if you don't, use it you. 1055 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 2: Lose IT so i don't know what went on with their. 1056 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:34,640 Speaker 2: NUMBER two i Don't Like. 1057 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 1: Josh giddy. 1058 00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 2: His off, court stuff definitely not a fan. Of that his, 1059 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 2: player style guy who if, he shoots can, be good 1060 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 2: is one of my least favorite player styles IN the 1061 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 2: NBA because i think the guys who actually learned to 1062 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,799 Speaker 2: shoot are so few and. Far between It's Like kawhi 1063 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 2: Enard And, jalen brown everybody else basically as a, question 1064 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 2: mark or maybe they're able to hit thirty five percent 1065 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 2: of wide open threes like he might be able. To 1066 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,319 Speaker 2: Do and i'm sad To. Lose caruso he was an 1067 00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 2: awesome player to watch and if he's on, your team 1068 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,200 Speaker 2: you instantly become a fan. Of him he was also 1069 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 2: the Only good BULLS defender I guess i would assume 1070 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 2: was a, fair Defender But Caruso all defense first team, 1071 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 2: One Year all defense second team. This year, to me 1072 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 2: he's the best guard defender in the league because he's 1073 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 2: good at point, of attack and he makes plays all over, 1074 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:23,799 Speaker 2: the court and he can guard up to fours if 1075 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:25,279 Speaker 2: you need, him too like he Was The Bulls kevin 1076 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 2: durant defender way. Back when so all of that is 1077 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 2: my general Thoughts on Caruso and GIDDY when i first 1078 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,799 Speaker 2: saw that. It happened but, you know digging back into, 1079 00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 2: THE trade i think this is at least a fair 1080 00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 2: gamble For. The bulls giddy's twenty one. Years old the 1081 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 2: guy's got major flaws in. His game he's not a 1082 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:46,840 Speaker 2: great finisher at. The rim he obviously, can't shoot not a, 1083 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:50,640 Speaker 2: big defender but he's not a bust. Right like he can. 1084 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 2: STILL improve i don't ever think he's gonna become a, 1085 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 2: great shooter but him having the ball in his Hands, 1086 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,840 Speaker 2: IN chicago i think he'll probably look better than he 1087 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 2: DID with Okc When shay gill Just had lexander And 1088 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:02,360 Speaker 2: Then jalen williams came along and took a bunch of 1089 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 2: Possessions from giddy. As well it kind of signals, to 1090 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 2: me though That the bulls are considering going down the 1091 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 2: rebuilding path trading a thirty year old guy for a 1092 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,360 Speaker 2: twenty one year. Old, guy obviously They're offering levine around 1093 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 2: the league no. Takers yet we'll see what they Do 1094 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,879 Speaker 2: with deroz and he might become an in demand free 1095 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 2: Agent If paul george decides to stay With. The CLIPPERS 1096 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 2: so i. DON'T know i was very sad to See 1097 00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 2: that caruso is going to be gone and that no 1098 00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:31,280 Speaker 2: picks were, Coming back but AT least i can understand 1099 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 2: Why the bulls decided that this was. 1100 00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 3: THE move i like how you Said the bulls are 1101 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:41,439 Speaker 3: in consideration of retooling or rebuilding or whatever thinking. 1102 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 2: About, It man they are. 1103 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 3: Probably thinking about it because it would be super weird 1104 00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 3: To Have josh giddy the, ball handler because that's what, 1105 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 3: he Is Alongside demarta Rosen And zach levine who need 1106 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:54,439 Speaker 3: the ball in, their hands to go Along With kobe 1107 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 3: White And, IoT assume who kind of need the ball in. 1108 00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 3: Their hands so it is a puzzling Situation Because josh 1109 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:04,840 Speaker 3: giddy has, shown that, you know like in a. Similar 1110 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,800 Speaker 3: way although he does play off the ball, at times 1111 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,239 Speaker 3: he is best with the ball in his hands and 1112 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,920 Speaker 3: he's a very. Good passer and so that's, why okay 1113 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,359 Speaker 3: see bought in on the number six pick, on him 1114 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 3: and they really did, like him but he just didn't 1115 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,279 Speaker 3: fit as Well with Shaye And, jalen williams and so 1116 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,200 Speaker 3: it was time. To go and, so yeah. Zooming out 1117 00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:25,960 Speaker 3: you just Look at alex carus and, you, say man 1118 00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 3: every good team would love To Have alex caruso on 1119 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:30,960 Speaker 3: their team because if you have scores and you have, 1120 00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 3: a bigs you just need one of. These guys and 1121 00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 3: so he fits. So well he is obviously getting a, 1122 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 3: little older but. Who cares he's got a Relationship With 1123 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 3: mark deagnott playing.

I think 1130 00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 2: so we need to See A, David Cruso ALEX cruso 1131 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:07,440 Speaker 2: Nypd Ok seed Blue BECAUSE matt i want to throwback 1132 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,040 Speaker 2: to see that he actually Played For. Mark degnell that was. 1133 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 2: PRETTY crazy i do think great pickup For. Okay seed 1134 00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 2: they knew, That giddy they wanted him to come off, 1135 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,160 Speaker 2: the bench, he, said no. Thank you he got played 1136 00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 2: off the court in, the playoffs which, you. Know sucks 1137 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,000 Speaker 2: you hate to trade for a guy that you. See 1138 00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 2: that but also the balls aren't getting the second round of, 1139 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 2: the playoffs so not too worried. About THAT but i, do, 1140 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:33,000 Speaker 2: think okay see got smaller Trading, for caruso so they're 1141 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 2: going to have to look for somebody to help them 1142 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 2: out on. The glass but, guess what they didn't give 1143 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 2: up any of, their picks so they could still make 1144 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 2: a move. 1145 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:42,960 Speaker 3: Going, forward yeah he was starting to rebound as well at. Six' 1146 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:46,320 Speaker 3: eight the fact that He Was, beside lou, dort You 1147 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,440 Speaker 3: Know and jalen williams sort of, as, their, two three 1148 00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:50,719 Speaker 3: four call him. Whatever you want he was helping out. 1149 00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:54,320 Speaker 3: On that end but his trade value probably couldn't. Be 1150 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 3: any lower it just. Feels that way maybe it's just 1151 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 3: because in freet about the off seat or, The off 1152 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:03,160 Speaker 3: court i'm not referring to That because really i've got 1153 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 3: no idea what happened Off Court with josh gitty. And 1154 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 3: this team this team Brought In, to josh gitty they 1155 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 3: did like him and they were going, forward with him 1156 00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 3: but just who they've constructed. The team around it just didn't, 1157 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:20,120 Speaker 3: make sense there so they dealt Him To, get als 1158 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:23,880 Speaker 3: caruso which. Worked extremely well, and you're right it would 1159 00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 3: have been Nice For the schicuggo bulls to have one, 1160 00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 3: pick thrown, in Because Yes the sacramento kings. Reportedly were 1161 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 3: able we're willing to give the, number thirteen pick but 1162 00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:34,440 Speaker 3: then you start to think about it, in the draft 1163 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 3: like this is the number thirteen pick a Better Player 1164 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 3: Than josh guitty giddy. Has been solid solid Is the 1165 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 3: word i'll, go back on because he is a good 1166 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,560 Speaker 3: ball handler and. Good at assisting but does he FIT 1167 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 3: in today's nba? Is the question and He has to 1168 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:53,160 Speaker 3: he needs shooters and a. Ton of them and so 1169 00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 3: that's why this offseason, is, really, interesting because yeah Maybe 1170 00:57:56,440 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 3: He replaces lonzo ball to be sort of that ballhandler 1171 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 3: who's not A Shooter if lonzo ball. Can't play ANYMORE 1172 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 3: but like, I Just, said DeRozan levine there's so MANY white, 1173 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 3: assume i guess assume he doesn't need the ball, in 1174 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,160 Speaker 3: his hands but still there's just. So, many, THERE so 1175 00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,960 Speaker 3: man i hope he succeeds as you. Said, twenty one 1176 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 3: yeah so. Hopefully, gets BETTER yeah and. 1177 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 2: I do think comparing him to, the, THIRTEENTH pick like 1178 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 2: I do think giddy is a better player Than what 1179 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,080 Speaker 2: the bulls would probably get if they Traded with the 1180 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 2: kings and got. The thirteenth pick but also they Have 1181 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 2: to pay, giddy next, summer so yeah it's good no 1182 00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 2: the cost controlledness of. The thirteenth, pick, EITHER way though 1183 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 2: i do Think that the bulls are going to be 1184 00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:39,640 Speaker 2: bad enough that they can keep their pick, yeah NEXT 1185 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 2: year which i. Think is important they've got a top 1186 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:44,520 Speaker 2: twenty five top ten or twenty twenty five top ten 1187 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:47,439 Speaker 2: protected pick Goes, to the spurs So if the bulls 1188 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 2: are in, the bottom ten they get to keep, that 1189 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 2: draft pick which would be good To Get a cooper 1190 00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:55,760 Speaker 2: flag because it seems to Me that the bulls best 1191 00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,920 Speaker 2: teams come when they're able to get a very good player. 1192 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 2: In the Draft I'm thinking Michael Jordan, and derek ROSE 1193 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 2: we saw, woj mentioned It and Even sam presty uh 1194 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 2: in his press release talking About why The thunder Traded. 1195 00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 2: Giddy for caruso do you Actually Think that josh giddy has? All, star, 1196 00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:18,200 Speaker 2: potential well yeah that was A, surprising extreme yeah that was. 1197 00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:25,520 Speaker 3: That was high it really depends. On, the team Yeah 1198 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 3: well the bulls without the guys who are going To 1199 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 3: Make the all star team. That's currently contructed it's Not Gonna, 1200 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 3: be josh gitty it's gonna be It's Gonna be Zach Levine. 1201 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 3: Or tomorrow rose so if we Just Talked aboutel daniel 1202 00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,960 Speaker 3: Russell Making An, all star game if they're a, five 1203 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:42,400 Speaker 3: hundred team like let's say it's Just Built around Josh 1204 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 3: Giddy and Kobe White, and io, desumo then yeah maybe 1205 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 3: It Could. Be, josh gay maybe but you really got 1206 00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 3: to be a good team and you don't have you 1207 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,400 Speaker 3: can't have better. Players on It DeRozan and zach levine 1208 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 3: Would Be the all stars, On THAT team so i guess. 1209 00:59:57,040 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 3: THERE'S potential. There, i suppose yeah a lot. 1210 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:01,480 Speaker 2: Of Guys Make the. 1211 01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 3: All, start too yeah yeah it all happened, this, year 1212 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,840 Speaker 3: though absolutely. But PROBABLY not but i don't think this 1213 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 3: year we're gonna see those guys all. ON the team 1214 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 3: i don't they have to trade one. 1215 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 2: Of those guys. 1216 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 3: THEY have to i know It's the balls and, you 1217 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 3: say that you say that it, makes no sense especially 1218 01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 3: because it's a Good Point that josh getty has played 1219 01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:22,919 Speaker 3: in the leave for, three years now so they're gonna 1220 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:25,480 Speaker 3: have to pay him soon if they're gonna want to. 1221 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:27,520 Speaker 3: Keep him around and do you want him Playing with 1222 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,439 Speaker 3: The rozen and levigne like they're not. Gonna be good 1223 01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:35,560 Speaker 3: he has to handle the ball a ton and he 1224 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 3: again there was there was good times where he was 1225 01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:38,440 Speaker 3: off the ball and he was. 1226 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 2: In. 1227 01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 3: The corner uh but in the, playoffs they yeah he 1228 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 3: was left open and some of the. Shots Went Down 1229 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 3: against new orleans in the opening round, on the road he, 1230 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 3: had four threes but they weren't going down. All the 1231 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 3: time and if He put ox caruso in there where 1232 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 3: he doesn't have to be part of the, offense at 1233 01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:55,960 Speaker 3: all he doesn't have to handle the. Ball, at all okay. 1234 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:57,800 Speaker 3: So he's happy how many picks? Do they have why 1235 01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:59,920 Speaker 3: can't they just? Give one up why can't Hahway can 1236 01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:02,360 Speaker 3: think cornish, was just saying, give us something. 1237 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 2: That's. The question man you have to think they. Didn't, 1238 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:07,000 Speaker 2: even ask. Yeah that's fair it's the only way that 1239 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 2: you wouldn't get one thrown in that just. Toss, him around. 1240 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah that's, true who knows but it feels Like the 1241 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 2: bulls ninth seed dynasty is coming. To an end. 1242 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:16,840 Speaker 3: Very Sad man the raptors. 1243 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 2: Are stealing that as long as We Got a no 1244 01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 2: dunk's team in the play and, we'll be. 1245 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:23,280 Speaker 3: Excited all right, final topic here, speaking of playans this 1246 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 3: is one team that was in it. This Past Season 1247 01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,880 Speaker 3: the sacramento kings kept an important piece of that. Play 1248 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:32,120 Speaker 3: in Team They signed malik monk to a long deal 1249 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 3: who was injured through the back half. Of The year 1250 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:38,240 Speaker 3: there so Up Down on malik monk Staying with the 1251 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,919 Speaker 3: kings for four years and a seventy. Eight, MILLION deal trey. 1252 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 2: I like it i especially like It for the kings, 1253 01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 2: because four years, Seventy, eight million yeah not crazy expensive 1254 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,760 Speaker 2: for a guy who finished Second and sixth Man of 1255 01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 2: the year. Voting last year careers career high sorry in 1256 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:59,520 Speaker 2: scoring and assist became very Important for the kings as 1257 01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 2: one of their. Crunch time guys it's like literally Either 1258 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 2: Him or darn fox. Making the plays so this was 1259 01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:08,080 Speaker 2: The max that. Sacramento could offer still pretty, cheap For 1260 01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 2: them but monk did get a player option in, the 1261 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 2: fourth year so if he has another, three good seasons 1262 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 2: he could go back into free agency and maybe. Sign another. 1263 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 2: Deal SOMEWHERE else, so i Think Good for malik monk getting, 1264 01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 2: His biggest payday Good for the kings to be able 1265 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 2: to retain him on a pretty. Solid, dollar amount. 1266 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 3: Yeah it is. A good deal somebody probably would have. 1267 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:30,920 Speaker 3: Offered him more and that's why they allow teams to 1268 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:35,920 Speaker 3: start negotiating legally with their players right after the, finals 1269 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:38,040 Speaker 3: is done As opposed, to july first when they are 1270 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,560 Speaker 3: all supposed to be able to. Start, the, negotiations so 1271 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,160 Speaker 3: yeah he agreed to a three, plus an option which 1272 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:46,120 Speaker 3: could bode well for him after three years he goes 1273 01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:47,360 Speaker 3: out and gets. Some more money. 1274 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:49,200 Speaker 2: It is. 1275 01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:53,160 Speaker 3: EASY to forget i guess that this team was forty six, 1276 01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:55,120 Speaker 3: and thirty six not a bad, team at all and 1277 01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:58,080 Speaker 3: they fell in the play in, TOURNAMENT because primarily, i 1278 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,160 Speaker 3: would say a BIG reason and i don't know for 1279 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 3: sure if they are Able To beat New Orleans if malik. 1280 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,840 Speaker 3: Monk Is There but leak, monk was hurt and so 1281 01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 3: that's a. Part, of it, yeah he was, as you 1282 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,080 Speaker 3: said a key part. Of their team now other key 1283 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 3: parts of their team are just getting bigger to help 1284 01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 3: out on. The DEFENSIVE end so i don't know if 1285 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,920 Speaker 3: they go get a starting. CENTER for demotsuls i highly 1286 01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:24,480 Speaker 3: doubt that to put someone's, at the four but. They 1287 01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 3: need That They need keegan murray to. Take another step 1288 01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:30,800 Speaker 3: otherwise it's just such a such. A tough conference it's. 1289 01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 2: A tough Conference and the kings last season basically. Brought 1290 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:36,439 Speaker 2: everybody back remember they were in The Mix, for kyle 1291 01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:39,160 Speaker 2: kuzma but they decided to use their cap space to. 1292 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 2: Extends a bonus they're Obviously Bringing back, malik monk here 1293 01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:45,720 Speaker 2: so they're. Betting On continuity but, I'M with you i 1294 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 2: think they still need to make some. Kind OF move 1295 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 2: and i know they were a team. That was rumored 1296 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:53,760 Speaker 2: And the zach, lavine trade sweepstakes if you want to, 1297 01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:55,240 Speaker 2: CALL it that i don't know if it's the sweepstakes 1298 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:57,960 Speaker 2: if you offer him around to fifteen teams and. Nobody 1299 01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 2: says yes but it was A Pair only Kevin Herder 1300 01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 2: and harrison Barnes for zach lavine. And who knows Probably 1301 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,240 Speaker 2: maybe the bulls would get a pick if they decide to. 1302 01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 2: Ask for one but they need to change something up just. 1303 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,760 Speaker 2: A little bit they need a little bit, more, oomph 1304 01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:16,479 Speaker 2: defensively because, like You're Saying the western, conference is tough 1305 01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:19,080 Speaker 2: and it's only Getting Better with john morant coming back 1306 01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,320 Speaker 2: from injury and. Suspension Next year the rockets want. To 1307 01:04:22,360 --> 01:04:25,120 Speaker 2: Be better the spurs are gonna be Good eventually With. 1308 01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:28,760 Speaker 2: Victor wembin yama so things are Tough In, the western 1309 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,840 Speaker 2: conference but after a decade and a half of not, 1310 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:33,960 Speaker 2: Making the playoffs sacramento is happy to be part of. The, 1311 01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 2: postseason consistently yes this. 1312 01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:40,480 Speaker 3: Might be the year after talking about it year after. Year, 1313 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:42,720 Speaker 3: after year well They Give up harrison, barnes for something 1314 01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 3: and that seems like that could, happen because, otherwise you 1315 01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 3: know you're rolling With The Diarn fox keegan murray, type 1316 01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 3: of backcourt and then your bigs. ARE the, biggs i 1317 01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 3: mean you're Gonna Roll with Harrison barnes and sibonis again 1318 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:00,560 Speaker 3: at the. FOUR or, five i mean they they definitely 1319 01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:02,960 Speaker 3: need to change something up. For their, defense but again 1320 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 3: forty six and thirty. Six ain't bad what would they 1321 01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:08,120 Speaker 3: get You, in the east like a. SOLID six, seat 1322 01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 3: i mean it is so weird when you compare the 1323 01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 3: conferences because the two seed got fifty Wins In. The eastern, conference. 1324 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 2: Hey man you're you're just. Hating, right now yeah forty 1325 01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:20,840 Speaker 2: six Wins For, the miami heat and they were the eighth. 1326 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 3: Seed, last year yeah there was a lot of pair 1327 01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 3: drop off. 1328 01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:26,800 Speaker 2: Starts after that whoever came in ninth had. A, bad sea. 1329 01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:31,160 Speaker 3: YEAH that's true i do forget that THEY'RE they're really. 1330 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,240 Speaker 3: I don't forget i Remember that the pacers were good 1331 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:36,560 Speaker 3: and They're all those Bucks. In the bucks. They're all 1332 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:40,400 Speaker 3: good they. Just weren't Great So the kings kings win 1333 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:42,360 Speaker 3: more games than if They're, IN the, east i say 1334 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:44,720 Speaker 3: just because of the teams that they. Get to play 1335 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:47,680 Speaker 3: so that, kind of hurts but it is a good 1336 01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:50,840 Speaker 3: Signing For the sacramento.
