Speaker 1: So I want to talk about really quickly.
Speaker 2: The deepest teams who are now the deepest teams in
Speaker 2: the NBA as a result of this trade deadline.
Speaker 1: I have five.
Speaker 2: I thought I was gonna do three, and what I
Speaker 2: ended up at was five because teams got really, really deep.
Speaker 2: Not all of them are contenders now, so don't quote
Speaker 2: me on that. But these are the top five deepest
Speaker 2: teams right now in the league.
Speaker 1: We'll start at five. We'll go to one.
Speaker 2: Number five, top deepest team now in the league after
Speaker 2: the deadline. Philadelphia seventy six ers, ooh you said what, yes, Harden,
Speaker 2: Maxie de Anthony Melton, Cork Moss, who by the way,
Speaker 2: demanded the trade did not get traded, Tobias Harris, Jalen
Speaker 2: McDaniels who they got at the deadline, j Tucker, George Nang,
Speaker 2: Joel Embiid, Montrez Harrell, and now Dwayne Debman. Dwayne Debman
Speaker 2: is now their backup, backup center because they have obviously
Speaker 2: Montrez Harrel as well. So they have eleven players that
Speaker 2: you can legitimately see playing on a night tonight. Basis
Speaker 2: Number four. The LA Clippers, they're running eleven deep as well.
Speaker 2: Terrence man, He's gonna run the point Bones Highland backup point,
Speaker 2: Norm Powell, Paul George, Eric Gordon, Kawhi, Leonard Marcus, Morris Batoom.
Speaker 2: These are real deal players. Roco Zubac Plumbley the good players.
Speaker 2: These are really good players. Number three deepest team in
Speaker 2: the league right now, this is this is gonna be fascinating.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're gonna I don't know if
Speaker 2: you're gonna like agree or if it's gonna be surprising.
Speaker 2: But this team has thirteen players that they can roll out,
Speaker 2: throw the ball out with any one of those seven
Speaker 2: and you could get games won.
Speaker 1: The Brooklyn Freaking Nets.
Speaker 2: Brooklyn Nets subtracted KD and Kyrie and now they are
Speaker 2: the third best deep team in the league.
Speaker 1: Check out this roster.
Speaker 2: You got Ben Simmons when he plays, Spencer Dimwittie, Patty Mills,
Speaker 2: Edmund Sumner, Seth Curry, Michale Bridges, Cam Thomas, Cam Johnson,
Speaker 2: Joe Harris, Royce, O'Neill, Utah Watt Nabe, Dorian Finney, Smith
Speaker 2: and Nick Claxton.
Speaker 1: Shut the fuck up? What thirteen deep? Come on now?
Speaker 2: Number two deepest roster on this league. After the trade deadline.
Speaker 2: The LA Lakers, Now, yeah, they are really deep.
Speaker 1: They is shocking. I looked at their new roster.
Speaker 2: I discovered that Lebron, like I said, as the only
Speaker 2: player over thirty. But you've got De'angelo Russell, Dennis Shrewder,
Speaker 2: Austin Reeves, Malik Beasley, Lonnie Walker, Ruey, Hachi Mura, Jared Vanderbilt, Lebron,
Speaker 2: a D and Mobamba.
Speaker 1: I know that's less than thirteen.
Speaker 2: I just think the caliber with a D, Lebron and
Speaker 2: a bunch of depth is even more deep than deep.
Speaker 2: You know what, I'm saying, number one deepest team in
Speaker 2: the league now because they didn't trade guys that we
Speaker 2: thought that they might, and they added some. This is
Speaker 2: the Boston Celtics, number one deep team in the league
Speaker 2: right now. Eleven players are gonna get minutes. You got
Speaker 2: Marcus Smart, Malcolm Brogden, Derreck White and Pritchard all at
Speaker 2: the guard spot, Tatum Brown, Samhuser, Horford Grant Williams at forward,
Speaker 2: and now you got Mike Muskala joining time Lord and
Speaker 2: Blake Griffin at center.
Speaker 1: That is eleven dudes that could significantly get minutes. Boy
Speaker 1: oh boy, is this fun.
Speaker 2: So with that Obviously you can't always get a chit
Speaker 2: from that, but it doesn't hurt.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be able to survive injuries.
Speaker 2: You're gonna be better as a result, and I think
Speaker 2: at least four of these teams could make some real
Speaker 2: noise in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Moving on.
Speaker 2: With the trade deadline now in the past, we gotta
Speaker 2: talk about the buyout market. Such a very weird trade
Speaker 2: that like, like I said, but it makes buyouts even
Speaker 2: more important for teams that did not alter their roster enough.
Speaker 2: Moving forward, there's already been a couple of buyouts as
Speaker 2: well right now and signings. You got Reggie Jackson who
Speaker 2: went from the Clippers to the Hornets. He gets bought out,
Speaker 2: and now he signs with the Nuggets, which I think
Speaker 2: is hilarious because the Clippers got Bones Highland and the
Speaker 2: Nuggets got Reggie Jackson. I think the Nuggets are gonna
Speaker 2: be less impressed with Reggie Jackson than they were Bones Highland.
Speaker 2: If you thought it was tough to navigate Jamal Murray
Speaker 2: and Bones, let me introduce you to.
Speaker 1: Mister October Reggie Jackson.
Speaker 2: Let me introduce you to the man who has a
Speaker 2: heat check twenty four to seven seven days a week.
Speaker 2: Love Reggie, but I don't know if you're gonna get
Speaker 2: anything more out of him than you were Bones Highland.
Speaker 2: Maybe cheaper, maybe more equipped to fit in and slot in.
Speaker 1: But boy, oh boy, I do I not know if
Speaker 1: I like that move.
Speaker 2: Terrence Ross was weighed by the Magic alongside Beverly.
Speaker 1: Terrence Ross has signed with the Suns. Is that true? Wow,
Speaker 1: that's incredible. I didn't even know that.
Speaker 2: Here is a list, though, of the most important buyout targets.
Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook.
Speaker 2: He is now rumored to go to Chicago or the
Speaker 2: Clippers after he's bought out by the Jazz. I think
Speaker 2: he should go to Chicago. Let him languish there, let
Speaker 2: them ball out Sell Jerseys. Nobody wants to see him
Speaker 2: in La Nobody. It's just I know Paul George is
Speaker 2: trying to make it happen. I don't think this front
Speaker 2: office does want it to happen. Stop Paul George.
Speaker 1: It's okay. Just let him languish alone.
Speaker 2: John Wall He's gonna be bought out most likely, and
Speaker 2: like severally, is he the only player ever in history
Speaker 2: to be bought out by the same team twice in
Speaker 2: two years?
Speaker 1: Got bought out by.
Speaker 2: The Rockets, went to the Clippers, signed a new deal
Speaker 2: and got sent to the Rockets and is about to
Speaker 2: get bought out again. Crazy Patrick Beverley sent to the
Speaker 2: Magic they waived him. He's gonna sign with another team.
Speaker 2: Not surprisingly, the Clippers are back on that radar as well,
Speaker 2: which would make this reunion tour even more sweet.
Speaker 1: Like all these players just going back to their old teams.
Speaker 1: I don't understand it.
Speaker 2: That's why I think Will Barton's going back to Portland,
Speaker 2: because why the fuck not?
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 2: Gary Payton goes back, Yaka Perle goes back, Eric Gordon
Speaker 2: goes back.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is like so insane. Dario Sartz looks
Speaker 1: like he's gonna get bought out as well. He was
Speaker 1: playing really well. I think that was very surprising that
Speaker 1: he got dumped to the Thunder.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if the Okac Thunder are going to
Speaker 2: buy him out, it is unknown, but whoever ends up,
Speaker 2: you know, if he's out on the market, there's gonna
Speaker 2: be a dozen teams probably trying.
Speaker 1: To go get him. Like I said, Will the Thrill.
Speaker 2: Some people think he's like one of the most talented
Speaker 2: players on the potential buy out market. This man doesn't
Speaker 2: play any defense. He doesn't like I love Will. He
Speaker 2: is a bucket. I'm sure he'll be some great scorer
Speaker 2: from some team, but I'm telling you the MAVs don't
Speaker 2: want them.
Speaker 1: Maybe the Sun's due. It's gonna be very interesting.
Speaker 2: Sergea Baka got bought out by the Sun by the box,
Speaker 2: excuse me, and the Sixers are now said to be
Speaker 2: kicking the tires on him.
Speaker 1: I thought he got picked up, though maybe not. I'm
Speaker 1: not an expert. I'm just a commenter.
Speaker 2: There are some other players rumored to be bought out
Speaker 2: or way before the March first deadline, like Derek Rose,
Speaker 2: which would be fascinating, Neurlan's Noel Detroit justin Holiday, and
Speaker 2: maybe possibly even Kevin Love.
Speaker 1: Kevin Love on the buyout market.
Speaker 2: God, we've been talking about that for two years and
Speaker 2: now all of there's teams getting caught holding the bag
Speaker 2: of the deadline buyouts this year probably.
Speaker 1: More important than ever. There are teams desperate to upgrade
Speaker 1: out West.
Speaker 2: I mean, despite the seismic changes that we have on
Speaker 2: the rosters in the East, where thirteen teams are still
Speaker 2: in contention. So it's gonna be fascinating to see what
Speaker 2: goes down. Uh,
