00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,040

00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,199

Speaker 4: agency here.

00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 1: Oh boy, it's early look and we were never mind, we're.

20
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 4: Around hands skates. I'm feeling pretty tired this morning too.

21
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 4: You know, we had a grueling seven game stories at

22
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 4: pickup basketball last night. I don't know about you, but

23
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 4: I was hyped afterwards. Tough getting to sleep, started watching

24
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 4: the Bear started calling Laura Chef.

25
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 3: The entire evening.

26
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 4: So, yeah, a little bit of a longer night than

27
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 4: I expected, but uh also fired up to talk some

28
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 4: hoops on day one of free agency.

29
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: We got lots to talk about. Obviously, some trades going

30
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: down yesterday, and then we'll talk.

31
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 2: About the rumors.

32
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: We had some big names declining their player options and

33
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: Beal and Harden and what that means for them and

34
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: their teams and all that. Yeah, we played a lot

35
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: of basketball last night. Though we played we had I

36
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: don't know. On one hand, it's great because you know

37
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: you're getting a great run in. On the other hand,

38
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: it sucks having just ten guys like you. You're like

39
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: praying for no injury. Yeah, which we had a couple

40
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: scares with our guy Art and there's a couple other

41
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: guys going down, but everyone made it through the two

42
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 1: hour run and it's just pure exhaustion.

43
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just game after game after game. It

44
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 2: was fun.

45
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: But oh, you need a suber too at our age.

46
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was.

47
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 4: It was pretty funny, you know, watching the group chat

48
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 4: throughout the day. It kind of just eventually settled on

49
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 4: the fact we're gonna have ten guys exactly there, so

50
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 4: we might as well play a seven game series. It

51
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 4: works almost perfectly time wise, like two hours. But it

52
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 4: honestly did feel like a playoff series out there because

53
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: by game six and seven, a lot of hands on

54
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 4: the knees, a lot of cramping in the cab, a

55
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 4: lot more fowls being called, a.

56
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 3: Lot more fowls.

57
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,399
Speaker 4: It was rough stuff out there, but you know, came

58
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 4: down to seven seven in a game seven.

59
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 3: Oh, you can't ask.

60
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: For much more, I know, and I know I'm sure

61
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: some people, maybe even in the stream team right now,

62
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: where's the footage? Where are the highlights? Where's the mixtape?

63
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 1: We only had ten Trey and I were on the

64
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: same team. Nobody was recording anything last night. So yeah,

65
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: unfortunately we don't even have that footage for you guys

66
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: out there, for the true sikos that really like to

67
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: break down the tape. But we're okay here. We got

68
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: some coffee flowing through us, cranking through the cyst. And

69
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: let's start with the big trade yesterday the Hawks, I mean,

70
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,119
Speaker 1: they made the biggest edition of the NBA offseason so far.

71
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: They send Danilo Gallinari and three first round draft picks

72
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: and a draft swap to the San Antonio Spurs in

73
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: exchange for all star guard to John tat Murray. Two

74
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: of those draft picks unprotected in twenty five twenty six.

75
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: I guess the draft swap is also unprotected protected, so

76
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: lots of unprotected picks go into San Antonio. Which side

77
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: do you want to start with this one? Trey san

78
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: Antonio what they were doing, or the Hawks sort of

79
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: pushing their chips in at least picks in and getting

80
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: a star player.

81
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 3: Let's start with the Hawks.

82
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 4: Let's be a couple of homeer here, Skeets.

83
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 3: I love it.

84
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 4: I love the move for the Hawks, no doubt about it.

85
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 4: They gave up a ton of draft compensation. But we've

86
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 4: been talking on the show all during last season, during

87
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 4: the run up to free agency here that the Hawks

88
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 4: need to make a little bit of a consolidation move,

89
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 4: need to add a second star alongside Trey Young. You know,

90
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 4: the Hawks can go only so far, it seemed with

91
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 4: Trey Young is their main offensive focus and then no

92
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,799
Speaker 4: real other playmakers out there. We saw in the playoff

93
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 4: series against the Heat, the Heat were able to take Trey.

94
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 3: Young out of the game, and that was pretty much

95
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 3: for the Hawks.

96
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 4: They didn't have anybody else who could make a play

97
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 4: out there, who was getting shots for others, and it

98
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 4: just they looked, they looked completely beaten, and it looked

99
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 4: like that team had kind of come to an end.

100
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 4: So to add a current All Star in Dejontay Murray,

101
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 4: who addresses a lot of things that the Hawks needed,

102
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 4: I think is huge. They got another playmaker alongside Trey Young.

103
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 4: They're gonna be able to play Trey Young off the

104
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 4: ball a little bit more now they've got an active

105
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 4: guy in Dejontay Murray who gets in in the passing

106
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 4: lanes and steals and turns defense into offense. He's a

107
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 4: little bit bigger, he's got long arms. He'll be able

108
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 4: to guard the more the scarier perimeter threat there in

109
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 4: the backcourt. So I think being able to get him

110
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 4: for what they gave up for not actually having to

111
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 4: trade any of their young players, I think is a

112
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 4: huge move for Travis Slank and of course Landry Fields.

113
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 4: That's a weird one to see when you're reading about

114
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 4: all these Hawks moves right now. General manager Landry Fields

115
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 4: feels like he was in the NBA about five minutes ago.

116
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 4: But I like the look of it. It doesn't feel

117
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 4: like the Hawks are done yet either. According to Chris

118
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 4: Kirshner and Sam amik Over at the Athletics subscribe at

119
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 4: the Athletic dot com slash no Dunks, they're saying there

120
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 4: are still moves to be made. We've heard a lot

121
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 4: of rumblings about John Collins as well, So you have

122
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 4: to think that maybe a Kevin Herder bogdan Bogdanovich they

123
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 4: could be had as well, since now Murray's going to

124
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 4: be taking up a lot of minutes there in the backcourt.

125
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 3: But who knows.

126
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 4: Murray's the best player who has changed teams so far

127
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 4: in the offseason. He's coming to a Hawks team that

128
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 4: needed to just up their talent level a little bit.

129
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 4: So I like the Hawks being able to get the move.

130
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 4: They did give up a ton of draft capital. Those

131
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 4: skeets Holy twenty five, twenty six, and twenty seven, Those

132
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 4: seasons are going to be a little nerve wracking for

133
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 4: the Atlanta Hawks. First of all, you have to hope

134
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 4: that Dejante Murray signs after his contract is done in

135
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four.

136
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 3: That would be an.

137
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 4: Absolute disaster If the Hawks lose those picks and Murray

138
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 4: in that time. But it seems like Murray and Trey

139
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 4: Young are excited to be playing together. They should be

140
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: a decent pairing at the very least. But I mean,

141
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 4: one injury to one of those guys and you're looking

142
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 4: at a nice draft.

143
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 3: Pick for the San Antonio Spurs.

144
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 4: So for the Spurs, you know, it kind of felt

145
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 4: like maybe we were getting smokescreen by the Hawks earlier,

146
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 4: but the Spurs decided we're going for it. We're going

147
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 4: for victor here. We would love to see Wen Binyama

148
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 4: there in San Antonio. I think they just looked at

149
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 4: the landscape of the Western Conference. They saw that some

150
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 4: of the teams that were in the play in Tournament

151
00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 4: last year are gonna be getting better. Like the Pelicans,

152
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 4: they're in the playing tournament. They're gonna be better this year,

153
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 4: probably with Zion returning. The Clippers are gonna be better

154
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 4: this year, acquiring John Wall and getting their stars back

155
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 4: in Kawhi and Paul George when he's healthy as well.

156
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 4: Teams are getting better in the Western Conference, and the

157
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 4: Spurs have been squeaking into the play In Tournament. De

158
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 4: Jontey Murray probably couldn't take them to a conference finals

159
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 4: in the Western Conference. So they say, now is not

160
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 4: the time for us. Let's beef up our assets here

161
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 4: and Gopher Brooke, let's see if we can hit another

162
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 4: Tim Duncan lottery sort of pick here. So you know,

163
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 4: I understand why the Spurs did it. If you're a

164
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 4: Spurs fan, I've had a couple of text to me saying,

165
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna watch any games next year. Why would

166
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 4: I watch games. I'm just kidding. I am gonna watch

167
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 4: the games, but I'm gonna be sad watching him. That's

168
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 4: what they all said. I'm not gonna watch him. Yeah

169
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 4: I will. But their team's not gonna be very good

170
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 4: next year. And that's okay because there's a lot of

171
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 4: teams trying to win. They can easily be one of

172
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 4: the five worst teams in the NBA, which gives them

173
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 4: a pretty solid shot at a generational looking prospect.

174
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that has to be the plan here, Sanata,

175
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: though I would be a little wary of that plan.

176
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: When you have Greg Popovich still as your coach, I'm

177
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: like terrified that he's somehow gonna get like thirty five

178
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: wins out of a bunch of like somewhat nobody's you know,

179
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: like it's Pop we're talking about here, like this is

180
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: his dream, Like, oh, a bunch of kids I can

181
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: yell at, Yeah, watch us get into the.

182
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: Play a tournament.

183
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, the idea is that they're going to be

184
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: very very bad here help their chances to get a

185
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: very high pick. And who knows what happens with these

186
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: Hawks picks moving forward. I will say, like I think

187
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: you know, we're zeroing in on the top of the

188
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: draft in Victor over there, the skinny, tall French guy

189
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: everybody wants. He's got the link to Tony Parker in

190
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: that they're Scoot Henderson as well.

191
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: People are high on out of the G League.

192
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: But also like even if Atlanta like ball out and

193
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: these picks are like, you know, middle of the pack

194
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: first round, even late first round, because the Hawks are

195
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: great with Trey Young and Murray whatever if that happens.

196
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: The Spurs are awesome at picking at the back of

197
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: the first round like de Jonte Murray, Dereck White, Keldon,

198
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: John Hutson. I think they were all like the twenty

199
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: ninth picks in the draft, so you know they're pretty

200
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: good at that. You know, Kauhi fifteen. Tony Parker is

201
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: famously twenty eighth. I think, man, it was a second

202
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: rounder for crying out loud. So just them having a

203
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: lot of picks, Like they're really good at this for

204
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: the most part. So even if they're not, Yeah, the

205
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: number one, two or three pick coming by way of

206
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: the Hawks, it's still a draft pick that they can

207
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: obviously trade or just find another hidden gem, So there

208
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: is that. I also like what they did. It felt

209
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: like they sort of drove up the price. I think

210
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: for de John taytmury here they're obviously selling him at

211
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 1: somewhat the peak. I know the contract issue of how

212
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: they were gonna be able to sign him and what

213
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: deal it was going to be is a big part

214
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: of them moving off of him too. But like, did

215
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: they get the Hawks to have to throw in another

216
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: first round pick unprotected because they had the Wolves talking

217
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: to them, possibly the Knicks for all we know, maybe

218
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: another team we're not even sure of. Like I think

219
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: that's why we had these rumors going on for you know,

220
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 1: what felt like a week or more trade from the Spurs,

221
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: like hey, we're moving to Jontay Murray. It's gonna take

222
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: a lot of picks. Wasn't the first report like it's

223
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: gonna be like a Drew Holiday type package, which they

224
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: got basically, I mean, pretty damn close to that in return.

225
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly right.

226
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 4: I think I think you would argue that the Drew

227
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 4: Holiday package was a little bit better. I saw Mike

228
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 4: Prada over at the Athletic subscribe to the Athletic dot

229
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 4: com slash no Dunks. He was comparing it to another

230
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 4: Drew Holiday trade when they traded and started the process.

231
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 4: This is kind of the start of the process for

232
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 4: the Spurs. We will see how it goes. We will

233
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 4: see if they have the same scrutiny that the seventy

234
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 4: six ers had and that the Oklahoma City Thunder have

235
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 4: been playing through in the past couple of seasons. You're

236
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 4: probably giving the Spurs a little bit of the benefit

237
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 4: of the doubt since they made the playoffs for twenty

238
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 4: something straight seasons and now they're finally taking a step back.

239
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,439
Speaker 4: But yeah, I like you're saying the Spurs are good

240
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 4: at drafting late in the first round. You know, they

241
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 4: probably have a fifty percent success rate, which is incredible

242
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 4: for drafting. Then you can get some role players and

243
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 4: their pick is going to be pretty solid for the

244
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 4: next couple of seasons, you would have to think, because

245
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 4: who knows, they might not be done a guy like

246
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 4: Keldon Johnson. He's a good young player. Is that somebody

247
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 4: that could be attractive to somebody else in the NBA?

248
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 2: Maybe?

249
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 4: So. Feels like the beginning of a new era in

250
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 4: San Antonio, except for the fact that they've got the

251
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 4: oldest coach in the league with the longest tenure there.

252
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 4: We will see how long Greg Popovich lasts. I kind

253
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 4: of think we're gonna be seeing Quinn Snyder and not

254
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 4: too long. Maybe not by the start of next season,

255
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 4: but the season after.

256
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 3: However, pop is.

257
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 4: Saying this reminds me back of my college days at

258
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 4: Pomemona Pritzker, So it doesn't seem like he's in a

259
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 4: hurry to get out of there either. A week a

260
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 4: surprising trade and shout out to the Spurs. You know,

261
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 4: they saw the riding on the wall, and once they

262
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 4: decided to move on from Murray, they were able to

263
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 4: kind of canvass the league and get a solid, solid

264
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 4: return from the Hawks because Murray is a guy who

265
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 4: was in demand and should have been in demand.

266
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, both these teams, like the Spurs and the Hawks

267
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: like they were like they were in no man's land

268
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: a little bit, if we're being honesty, like they were

269
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 1: like not great, not brutal, just sort of in that

270
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: little middle bunch. And that's a tough spot to be

271
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: in the NBA. So they took like in their opinions

272
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: at least different different trajectories, right, the Hawks hoping, Okay,

273
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,199
Speaker 1: maybe we can be great, and the Spurs saying, well,

274
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: we don't want to be great in this loaded West.

275
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: Let's set up for a couple of years from now.

276
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: Let's get all these picks, let's get all these bites

277
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: at the apple, and let's go the other way. So

278
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: getting away from the middle at least that's the hope.

279
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: But back to the Hawks, this is my concern. I

280
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: love the pairing on paper. I mean it really looks amazing,

281
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: like just the defensive guy in Murray besides Trey Young,

282
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: Trey on off ball, you said it, can you become

283
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: a little more Curry? Like, you know, Murray off ball

284
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: is a question mark. He's not a great shooter. That's

285
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 1: his one knock from from three point land. You know,

286
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 1: he's like a thirty three percent three point shooter. Can

287
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: he increase that? Is it not a concern because he's

288
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: still a tax attacks attacks, you know, they both like

289
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: to have the ball in their hands, so that'll be

290
00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: fun to watch. And can they figure it out the

291
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: rest of the roster too, because they're not done.

292
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 2: I agree with you as Schlank and the.

293
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: Hawks there, But does this make them? Does this make

294
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: the Hawks better than a healthy Bulls team, a healthy

295
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: Raptors team, you know, the Heat, the Sixers, and then

296
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: I'm not even at the top talking Bucks and Celtics,

297
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 1: and like, I love it. I know they're not done,

298
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,439
Speaker 1: but I do like I'm a little like, how far

299
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: does this jump the Hawks up? Like I'm not ready

300
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: to be like Hawks home court advantage first round, let's

301
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: go top four seats.

302
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 2: I'm not there yet.

303
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 1: With the East looking as sort of deep as it is.

304
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 3: No, definitely not.

305
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 4: I think the top four teams are gonna be pretty

306
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 4: similar to the top four teams this season. Miami will

307
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 4: still be there, the Bucks will obviously still be there.

308
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 4: The Celtics are a young team, they just went to

309
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 4: the finals, and I think the seventy six Ers are

310
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 4: probably the number four team there. But five through twelve

311
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 4: is gonna be competitive once again in the Eastern Conference.

312
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 3: We might see the Hornets take.

313
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 4: A little bit of a step back, but the Bulls

314
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 4: are gonna be competitive, the Raptors are gonna be competitive.

315
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 4: And I think that what you saw with Atlanta last

316
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 4: year is that that team that they ran out wasn't

317
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 4: as good compared to the rest of the Eastern Conference

318
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 4: as the nineteen twenty or the twenty twenty one team

319
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 4: was when they went to the conference finals. So yeah,

320
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 4: it doesn't necessarily vault them up into the upper echelons

321
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 4: of the Eastern Conference, but it does I think take

322
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 4: them up a tier to you should be contending for

323
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 4: at least the five and six seed along with those

324
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 4: other teams like the Bulls, like the Raptors that are

325
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 4: good teams but a little bit flawed compared to the

326
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 4: real contenders in the Eastern Conference. And if you are

327
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 4: the Hawks and you just went to the conference finals

328
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 4: a season ago, you don't want to take yet another

329
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 4: step back, or having taken a step back, you don't

330
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 4: want to stay one step back. So this puts them

331
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 4: a little bit forward. And you know, we talk a

332
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 4: lot about teams going stale every once in a while.

333
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 4: It didn't feel like that was the case with the Hawks.

334
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 4: But they've kind of had this alignment here for a

335
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 4: little bit. They've been wanting to develop their young players

336
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 4: and Hunter and Herder and Colin and young.

337
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: It's been a lot of drafted guys.

338
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 4: Now it's time to change it up a little bit

339
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 4: and see if a little bit of a change, a

340
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 4: little bit of a remaneuvering of.

341
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 3: Their priorities changes things going forward.

342
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I mean, who knows who gets moved here?

343
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: We still think it's John Collins to wear is fascinating,

344
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: and who really wants them? And what do you even

345
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: get in return? Like can they even get one of

346
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 1: their picks back? Like a can they get an unprotected

347
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: first round pick back?

348
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 3: I unprotected?

349
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: I would probably not not, yeah exactly, I mean maybe

350
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: lately protect or something like that. And I know Hollinger

351
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: was saying, yeah, Kevin Horter and Bugdanovich could be moved

352
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, yeah there isn't. And but but I

353
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: always going to say, like the Hawks, this is not

354
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: like a do or die season to me here also,

355
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: I want to make that clear, like it's not like

356
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: this next season they have to be elite. These guys

357
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: are young. Trey and Marie are on sort of the

358
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: same sort of time frame in terms of their age,

359
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: you know, being like where they're just just hitting really

360
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: their prime in the NBA hopefully. But you have on Coongu.

361
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: They just drafted Griffin. The Hunter has to stay healthy

362
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: and play and get better, is the other thing, DeAndre Hunter.

363
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: So if those are the five guys that are there

364
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: and part of their like core, you know, that's a

365
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: good it's a good team if they can get reps

366
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: together in theory for a couple of years here. So

367
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: I love this trade from both sides. I mean, you know,

368
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: actually the other one we're gonna talk about too. I

369
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: don't mind from both sides. But let's hear from everybody

370
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: in the stream team. Let's hear from everybody listening who

371
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: won the trade. If you like to do that, Hawks

372
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: or Spurs or throw your grades on it. You know,

373
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: I've seen grades. I've seen grades across the board in

374
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: this one tray, I've seen like the Spurs been given

375
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: a D minus and then an A plus. So I

376
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: guess it's all all your opinions on draft picks and

377
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: leaning into the future and blowing things up a little bit.

378
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly right.

379
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 4: Are you playing the assets game or are you playing

380
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 4: the wins game? The Hawks are playing the wins game.

381
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 4: They're all in right now for a team that might

382
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 4: top out at like a four seed, which is probably

383
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 4: scared for some people. Whereas the Spurs, you know, they're

384
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 4: obviously looking towards the future. So I think the Spurs

385
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,919
Speaker 4: accomplished what they wanted to do trading Murray maybe one

386
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 4: of the heights of his trade value. We'll see how

387
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 4: his career progresses, but he just made an All Star team.

388
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 4: He's still got a couple of years left on his deal.

389
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 4: They were able to get a ton of picks back,

390
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 4: and the Hawks upgraded their talent. So I do think

391
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 4: it's a win win for both teams, even if the

392
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 4: Spurs are gonna be taking a whole bunch of losses

393
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 4: come this season.

394
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: A whole bunch of losses. But I'm telling you right now,

395
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: Vegas drop the over under on Spurs wins for next season.

396
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: I'm pounding the over. This is Popovich, baby pound in

397
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: the top. It's gonna be like, I don't know what

398
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: it will be. It'll probably be like eight two and

399
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 1: a half or twenty one and a half.

400
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 2: It's like, I don't know, man, this guy just gets guys.

401
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: He just gets wins. Man. They play hard, they have a.

402
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: System, They have a lot of guys trying to like

403
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 1: prove their worth in this league. Something tells me, some

404
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: just oddly tells me the Spurs won't be as bad

405
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: as we think they might be. But they are trading

406
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 1: their best player here, that's no doubt about that. Who's

407
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: their next who's their best player?

408
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 2: Now?

409
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 1: It's like, I mean Johnson probably, it's probably Johnson if

410
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: he gets moved.

411
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: And what is it, Pearl?

412
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: I want the I want the Raptors to bring Peartle home.

413
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: So maybe that'll happen here in the next couple of days. Okay,

414
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: let's get him Josh.

415
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 3: Primo's time now, That's all I can say.

416
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 4: Anytime a Spurs fan gets in touch with me, I

417
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 4: just say, it's Primo time.

418
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 2: Oh, it's Primo time. It's Primo time.

419
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 3: Let's go.

420
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 4: Uh.

421
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: Gallinari will not be there for long by all By

422
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: all accounts too, I'm sure some other team will be

423
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: picking him up after he's like, oh, okay, moving on.

424
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: We had a we had a four player deal between

425
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: two teams.

426
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 4: Uh.

427
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: This I first saw from our guy Schaum's at the Athletic.

428
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: He reported that the Nuggets are trading Monte Morris and

429
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 1: Will Barton fart and Will Barton baby to the Wizards

430
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 1: in a deal for Contavious Caldwell, Pope and Ish Smith.

431
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 1: Those are four names. This to me was like, I

432
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, this is the most like

433
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: perfect average trade of all time.

434
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:01,479
Speaker 2: I love it.

435
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: I actually like it from both sides. But look at

436
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: these names, Montey Morris, Will Barton, and then you got

437
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: Contagious Coldwell, Pope and Ish Smith.

438
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 2: Tray, what are your thoughts on this one?

439
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 4: This is a trade for the sickos skeets. I guess

440
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 4: who's the biggest star here, Will Barton? It average like

441
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 4: eighteen points a game, nearly twenty. Uh. My thoughts on

442
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 4: this are that if you're going to do a salary dump,

443
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 4: this is how you do a salary dump. Because there's

444
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 4: no doubt to me that this is what it is

445
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 4: for the Denver Nuggets. They were looking at their team.

446
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 4: They and as we've seen throughout this summer so far,

447
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 4: they've been trying to take care of their luxury tax bill,

448
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 4: no doubt about it. They downgraded talent wise, for sure.

449
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 4: Will Barton better player than KCP. Monte Morris a better

450
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:48,680
Speaker 4: player than Ish Smith. However, KCP fits perfectly with what

451
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 4: the Nuggets are trying to do.

452
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 3: A catch and shoot three.

453
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 4: Point shooter who brings more defensively than Will Barton does.

454
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 4: On the other end, with Michael Porter Junior coming back,

455
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 4: with Jamal Murray coming back, you don't necessarily need Will

456
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 4: Barton's creation skills quite as much. He's a real streaky player.

457
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 4: He was a little bit overtaxed in Denver last year.

458
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 4: So I think taking a little bit step a little

459
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,199
Speaker 4: bit of a step back offensively is going to be

460
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 4: good for the Nuggets to have a solid defensive wing

461
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 4: in KCP, a guy they've been trying to get for

462
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 4: quite some time. I'm also a big Bones believer, so

463
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 4: I think Bones Highland slides in nicely to the first

464
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 4: backup guard spot, and you got Ish Smith is maybe

465
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 4: your third string point guard, a little bit of a

466
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 4: maybe a spot starter here and there if Murray needs

467
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 4: to take a rest or something like that. So a

468
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 4: good job for the Nuggets getting a little bit cheaper,

469
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 4: but at least getting players who fit what they want

470
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 4: to do. And if you're the Wizards, you needed a

471
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 4: point guard alongside Bradley Beal. We assume he's going to

472
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 4: be signing a gigantic deal here and Ishchmith was going

473
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 4: to be the starter for them. I don't know if

474
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 4: you necessarily think Montey Morris is a starting point guard.

475
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 4: He's probably right there on the verge of being one

476
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 4: of the He's one of the better backups in the league,

477
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 4: can be a solid starter as well, as we saw

478
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 4: for Denver last year. So that's nice to get him,

479
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 4: and Will Barton gives him a little juice as a

480
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 4: scorer as well. So I think a good job from

481
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 4: the Wizard to get to address one of their biggest

482
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 4: needs getting a point guard in Morris. There and the

483
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 4: Nuggets they did a good job saving some money. Also,

484
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 4: I don't love when the whole plan of things is

485
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 4: to save money when we just saw the Colorado Avalanche

486
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 4: win a Stanley Cup with one of the deepest teams

487
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 4: out there. Meanwhile their owner for the Nuggets is trying

488
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 4: to make their team a little bit cheaper. I don't

489
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 4: know what I'm talking about. That's just you know, Nathan McKinnon.

490
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 4: I guess is the Nicola jokicch when you really think

491
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 4: about it. But a good salary dump for the Nuggets

492
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,880
Speaker 4: and a couple of good players come into the Washington Wizards.

493
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with all you said. There again, I

494
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,360
Speaker 1: like this deal. It makes sense why both of these

495
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 1: teams were doing this. These are four good players. We

496
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 1: got everybody excited on Twitter yesterday too with Ish Schmith.

497
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: If he plays one game for the Denver Nuggets, setting

498
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: the all time NBA record for most franchises played with

499
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: it'll be thirteen.

500
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 2: He has to play a game.

501
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: This is the thing, you know, Like he's got to

502
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: suit up there for Denver, and if he does plays

503
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: one game, he's got the record all to himself. There, Trey,

504
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 1: which you know people were excited about me. Yeah, people were.

505
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 4: Excited about I feel like the Nuggets have to keep

506
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 4: him at this point, at least play him one game

507
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 4: or shoot him to a team he hasn't played for yet.

508
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:14,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it has to.

509
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: But yeah, all those reasons you said, the Nuggets, yeah,

510
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: duck in the luxury tax, but getting good players back

511
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 1: like KCP does make a lot of sense.

512
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 2: Like some defensive capabilities on the perimeter.

513
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 3: I like that.

514
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 2: Uh, and he can shoot. I mean he is a

515
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: three and D guy.

516
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: He really has proven that over the last couple of years.

517
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: And him with anyone, anyone gets paired with Jokic there,

518
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,919
Speaker 1: they're suddenly like a different player because you're just getting

519
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: more looks and you're getting better looks usually and if

520
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: you move, he'll find you. So so that's fun too.

521
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: And then the Monte Morris part, Yeah, he he proved

522
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 1: he could be a starting point guard I think in

523
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: this league, and they need one in Washington and he's

524
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: on the cheap.

525
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 2: I like it.

526
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't mind it. The guy he doesn't

527
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: he doesn't hurt you. That's the thing.

528
00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 2: He never hurts you.

529
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: He's like one of the eight US in the league

530
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 1: in terms of assist to turnover ratio. So him with

531
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: with Beal and some of their other talent there. Okay,

532
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: this is fine. This is this is just a great

533
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 1: average B plus maybe B minus trade for both sides.

534
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 2: To me, it's like not moving the needle.

535
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 1: But it is.

536
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 2: It's fine.

537
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 1: And the other thing from this this is just a

538
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: random note. I tweeted it out. Will Barton, the Nuggets

539
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: franchise leader in three pointers made. I love that stat

540
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: so much. I think that's so weird that he leads it.

541
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: But he was there for a long time and obviously

542
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: could score. He can hit the three, but that won't

543
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: be for long. I guess now that he'll have that.

544
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: I mean, hell, Yokich is like, I don't know, fifth

545
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: or sixth on the all time list.

546
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 2: For three pointers.

547
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 4: I mean, I have to assume that Jamal Murray is

548
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 4: Murray high on the list.

549
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't have it in front of me right now,

550
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: but he's got to be there too. I would think

551
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Murray's. Well, he'll be Murray's before it'll

552
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: be Yokich's even But yeah, there you go.

553
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 2: Will Barton. At least he leaves that team as a.

554
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: Franchise leader in three pointers made.

555
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 4: Third, Jamal Murray is Thirty's going to pass him likely

556
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 4: this season.

557
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 3: Oh wow, one hundred and thirty one behind. So hang

558
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 3: the banner now while.

559
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 1: You can, Okay, okay, So Murray will probably be the

560
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: first one to one thousand three pointers made there in

561
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: Denver when it's a when we get there in a

562
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: couple of years.

563
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 4: That's your favorite records in the NBA are the Nuggets

564
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 4: three point record and of course the most teams ever played.

565
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 1: For us exactly, that's why it's a great trade. Yeah,

566
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: this is exactly right. Let's hear from everybody about this one.

567
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 1: You have more opinions on the fart and will Barton

568
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: and Monte Morris go into the Wizards for CACP n

569
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 1: Ish Smith and his thirteenth NBA team. Okay, we had

570
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: some big names declining player options. Trey the Athletics Sham Saranya.

571
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: He broke news that Sixers guard James Harden is choosing

572
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 1: not to take a forty seven point four million dollar

573
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: player option for next season. He's instead going to re

574
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 1: sign with Philly in theory for a lower set galery

575
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 1: that allows them to add some other players. And then

576
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: I'll just chuck this in as well. Bradley Beal he

577
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: declined or is going to decline his own player option

578
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: for different reasons. He's going to sign a five year

579
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,719
Speaker 1: contract with the t Zards worth over two hundred and

580
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 1: fifty million dollars. So Harden's probably the more surprising one

581
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: of the two. But do you have any opinions on

582
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: these star guards here opting out of very very lucrative

583
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: player options to sign some other deals.

584
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, no surprise at all from Bradley Beal.

585
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 4: He is turning down a lot of money for this

586
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 4: one year and instead locking in more money for the

587
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 4: next five years. So well done. From there, I look

588
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 4: forward to another five seasons of Bradley Beal trade rumors

589
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 4: from here on out, Like literally literally every trade deadline

590
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 4: going is is this the time Bradley Beal asks out?

591
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 4: Is this the time Bradley Beal asks out? We shall

592
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 4: see how the pairing with Chris taps Porzingis goes heading

593
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 4: into this season. But no surprise there. The Harden thing

594
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 4: a little bit of a surprise. But I think if

595
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 4: you're a Sixers fan, you have to be super encouraged

596
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 4: about James Harden declining his option, signing a short term

597
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 4: deal for a little bit less money, because it really

598
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 4: feels like he's committing to the franchise and helping them

599
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 4: try to win a championship. They're gonna have a lot

600
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 4: more flexibility going forward to add role players. There are

601
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 4: still rumors about it, Tobias Harris trade potentially PJ Tucker

602
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 4: seems to be coming in. They made the move for

603
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 4: de Anthony Melton, so they've got a little bit more flexibility.

604
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 4: We know Darryl Morey has taking some swings around the margins.

605
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 4: He hits on some of them, some of them are

606
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 4: just random pickups that don't end up playing out. But

607
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 4: it feels like the Sixers are getting the squad back together,

608
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,439
Speaker 4: and it feels like Harden has a little bit of

609
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,919
Speaker 4: awareness here that maybe he's not quite the player he

610
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 4: once was. Ergo, the Sixers need to be able to

611
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 4: continue to add pieces alongside him. So I think the

612
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,439
Speaker 4: Sixers have to be very happy that they are. You

613
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 4: know that they made their huge trade at the trade deadline.

614
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 4: They're not losing out on Harden for nothing, and they're

615
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 4: going to be able to add to their team going

616
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 4: forward because they ran out of steam, no doubt in

617
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 4: the playoffs. A large part of it was Harden not

618
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 4: having a great postseason as we've seen before. But if

619
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,159
Speaker 4: he's going to be playing more as a playmaker than

620
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 4: as an MVP level sort of player, which he is

621
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 4: the number two guy in the Sixers, he should take

622
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 4: a step back. He should make a little bit less money,

623
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 4: and it freeze things up for the Sixers to continue

624
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 4: to add to their team.

625
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 3: So this is nice for Philadelphia.

626
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with all of that, especially if they

627
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: can add a guy like PJ. Tucker a little a

628
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: little toughness, that three and D type guy, guy that's

629
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: you know, has a lot.

630
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 2: Of postseason runs in them. They'll be smooth.

631
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 1: And if it's hard in helping out to make that,

632
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: to make that a reality, that's that's big. That shows you,

633
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 1: I think the Morey hardened connection here and that he

634
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: is buying in, like you said, into Phillies, like let's

635
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: go win a title under the umbrella of dwell embiat.

636
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: So so we'll see, we'll see what the number sort

637
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: of they settle on here. And don't hey, hey, guys,

638
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: don't worry, James Harden's still going to be get paid

639
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: a lot of money. You know, it's not going to

640
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 1: be forty seven, but uh, it's gonna be very very high.

641
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 2: Have we seen to has it started yet?

642
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 1: We haven't seen like a Harden in the club photo

643
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 1: or video yet, right, Like that hasn't surfaced yet.

644
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 4: No, And in these reports you're even getting news that

645
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 4: Harden started his off season training program earlier than he

646
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 4: ever had before. So I think we're gonna see Hardened

647
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 4: training videos before we see Harden club videos. Okay, let

648
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 4: us know in the comments, what do you think is

649
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 4: more likely to come first.

650
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: That's so, yeah, we got to make that into a poll.

651
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: I sort of agree with you because I was like,

652
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 1: I haven't heard of that, seen anything about that. I

653
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 1: know we're already getting photos of Luca looking ripped and

654
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: you know, thin in the face, and he's gonna be

655
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: committed this summer. Yeah, will Harden be the same? And

656
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: can Harden have the Chris Paul bounce back from like

657
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: the injury? This guy has been banged up. Can you

658
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: have like a really full healthy off season to sort

659
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: of rehabilitate there and come in and look like maybe

660
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: a little bit more of the James Harden we'll see.

661
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he's getting older the thing. But yeah, will

662
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 1: will those club videos surface a little bit later? Is

663
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: he going to be just shooting in the gym? I

664
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: can't wait to find out.

665
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 4: Well, according to the stream team, we've already had reports

666
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 4: of Harden running the stairs and hitting the hills skeets.

667
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 4: It's hardened season. I'm in on the sixers. Just when

668
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 4: I think I'm out on James Harden. He pulls me

669
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 4: back in. I can't quit this guy.

670
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: I'm like Darryl Lorie, Yeah you are, Laurie. Oh my god,

671
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: it's crazy. So yes, those two guys for different reasons.

672
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: Looks a hard and sort of helping his team. Beal,

673
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 1: I mean, look, get your money, man, But wow, is

674
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: that Trey is that instantly going to become He's a

675
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,719
Speaker 1: good player. I mean, we know that the guy can

676
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: score thirty points a game, but holy crap, Bradley Beel

677
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 1: at fifty million plus on a Zard's team. That's you know,

678
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: they made some moves here. They got if Porzingis is healthy,

679
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, there's a team I struggle to figure out.

680
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: Could like I'm like, I don't know where you put

681
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 1: Washington in the Eastern Conference, like a mix of things,

682
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: Like you could convince me they're still one of the worst,

683
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: and you can convince me why are they any different

684
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: than some of those teams we were mentioning. Why can't

685
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: they be competing with the Bulls and the Raptors and

686
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 1: the Hawks and stuff like that?

687
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 2: Right?

688
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Beale, super talented, led the league in scoring

689
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 4: not too long ago. Christas porzingis really talented. The question

690
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 4: for both of them, at least lately with Beale is

691
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 4: can they all sit? Can they both stay on the court.

692
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 4: Beal's missed a nice chunk of time the past three seasons.

693
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 4: You know, part of that last year surely was the

694
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 4: team not looking good and wanting to improve the pick. Nonetheless,

695
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 4: he hasn't been there, and he needs to be there

696
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 4: for the Wizards to make a run at the play

697
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 4: in Tournament. I guess they probably have enough talent to

698
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 4: be in the mix for the ninth or tenth seed,

699
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 4: but it's all going to depend on if they're able

700
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 4: to stay healthy. But it does feel like by the

701
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 4: end of his contract, Bradley Beal is gonna kind of

702
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 4: become the next John Wall, which is pretty weird considering

703
00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 4: he played with John Wall.

704
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

705
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 4: I mean, so you're making fifty million and you're like

706
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 4: thirty four years old, you're gonna be You're gonna be

707
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 4: shuffled around the league at some point.

708
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean probably Unfortunately for Wizards fans, that's

709
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: something you don't want to hear. I mean, we talk

710
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: about teams like don't be in the middle, don't be

711
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 1: on that treadmill of mediocracy, and that's like, that's where

712
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: the Wizards flourish. Man, that's like, lot's exactly where we

713
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,479
Speaker 1: watched it be, so we'll see. I mean, yeah, they

714
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: got some talent. The one other part of the monte

715
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: Morris trade or the Nuggets Wizards trade is, uh, Kuzma

716
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: and Montey Morris like knew each other in second grade

717
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: and they said they were gonna play on the same

718
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: NBA team.

719
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 2: And now that's uh for.

720
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: Now, at least the reality with Montey Morris joining Kuzma,

721
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: there's like a little photo going around them standing in

722
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: their second grade class there.

723
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 2: I was like, wow, that's pretty cool.

724
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is pretty amazing. I said the same thing

725
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 4: to my buddy Chad Humbers back in the day. But uh,

726
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 4: neither of us made it out. You know, neither of

727
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 4: us had made it to the league.

728
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 3: Too bad. It would have been great on the Bulls.

729
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 2: Chad couldn't even make it on this podcast.

730
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 4: He was more of a baseball guy as we got older.

731
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 4: You have a catcher right behind the plate.

732
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: Baseball gets Baseball grabs every kid at some point in

733
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 1: the It got me.

734
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 2: Baseball got me for a year, or two. But don't worry.

735
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 2: I was back to basketball, all right. I want to

736
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 2: include this.

737
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: This is not fun news. This is a shitty, shitty

738
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: headline here, but this just broke I think this morning,

739
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: maybe late last night. There are reports that Miles Bridges

740
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: was arrested on felony domestic violence charges in LA on Wednesday. Now,

741
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 1: according to TMZ, Bridges he turned himself into the police

742
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: following an alleged physical altercation with a woman on Tuesday,

743
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: so the day prior. Reports say the woman needed medical attention,

744
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: so hopefully she's okay.

745
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 2: He was released.

746
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: Bridges was after posting one hundred and thirty thousand dollars bail.

747
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: And this was right on the heels tray of like

748
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 1: Hornet's general manager Mitch Kupchik saying on Tuesday, like number

749
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: one priorities re signing Miles Bridges our leading score.

750
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 2: You know, we love him, we want.

751
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 1: To bring him back. He's been great for our franchise.

752
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 1: We believe in his work ethic, and he's only going

753
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: to get better. And then this comes, like, yeah, twenty

754
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: four hours after that, you know, So we'll see what

755
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: happens in the fallout from this.

756
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 2: But Jesus, what are you doing, Miles?

757
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolute loser behavior first and foremost. I hope the

758
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 3: woman that he allegedly hospitalized.

759
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 4: Is getting the treatment she needs and that she's safe

760
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 4: and that hey, you know, she's cared for going forward,

761
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 4: And I honestly hope there's some sort of consequences for

762
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 4: Miles Bridges, even if the consequences end up being he

763
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 4: cost himself a whole bunch of money, because this is

764
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 4: just complete nonsense. And we've seen time and time again

765
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 4: that off court issues can have absolutely no effect for

766
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 4: a player going forward. And look at what's happening with

767
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson in the end in the NFL. I hope

768
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 4: this is different, and for me, it's going to completely

769
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 4: change the way I think about Miles Bridges going forward,

770
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 4: just like it did with Lance Stevenson back in the day,

771
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 4: just like it did with Derek Rose back in the day.

772
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 3: So dumb ass shit from Miles Bridges.

773
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 2: Yeah.

774
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: And in other news, as we wrap this up here

775
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 1: because we need to wrap up the podcast because as

776
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: soon as we do, something else will happen.

777
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 2: That's just how it goes.

778
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,320
Speaker 1: I saw Wolf's tweet this morning that Kemba Walker and

779
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 1: the Pistons are finalizing a contract buyout, so once he

780
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 1: clears waivers, Kemba will be able to join another team.

781
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 2: In free agency.

782
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a team off the top

783
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: of your head where you see Kemba fitting in. I

784
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: don't know how much you think Kemba's got left in

785
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: the tank.

786
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:39,440
Speaker 2: What do you think.

787
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 3: I think he'll be a Laker? I don't know why.

788
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,320
Speaker 4: It just seems like there always happens to be a

789
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 4: Lakers photoshop for any player who's ever made an All

790
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 4: Star team. I've already seen Kemba kicking around. They could

791
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 4: probably use a backup point guard. Who knows what you're

792
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 4: gonna be able to get from Kemba Walker. It just

793
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 4: did not work in New York last year. He didn't

794
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 4: have the same athleticism. Maybe being back home and not

795
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 4: performing the way he wanted to was a problem for him,

796
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 4: you know, mentally. So we'll see if a new location

797
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 4: helps him. I would still be willing to take a

798
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 4: chance on Kemba Walker for a cheap contract, for a

799
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 4: veteran minimum.

800
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 3: I'll make a good deal.

801
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 4: Who knows what he's gonna be able to give you,

802
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 4: Just like Victor Oladipo, if he has an entire summer

803
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 4: to get his body right to get ready to play

804
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 4: once again, I'm sure he can still contribute somewhere, as

805
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 4: long as you're not expecting him to be your starting

806
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 4: point guard.

807
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

808
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: So the official start to NBA free agency later today

809
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 1: here on Thursday, at six pm Eastern.

810
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 4: Though.

811
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 1: You know, from what I can remember, you start seeing

812
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: those real juicy reports sometimes an hour or two before

813
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 1: who knows how hard Silvers come down on these teams

814
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: and saying, hey, cut that crap out a lot.

815
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,800
Speaker 4: It was pretty funny that Jalen Brunson has meetings scheduled

816
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:55,959
Speaker 4: for today with the Mavericks and the Heat.

817
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,919
Speaker 3: They're like, yeah, we're not tampered. I'm taking meetings here.

818
00:35:59,080 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 2: Yeah.

819
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think everybody just takes some meeting with the

820
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 1: Heat because they're like, I'd like go to Miami and

821
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 1: hang out with pat Riley kick if he.

822
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 4: Really does drop the rings on the table, yeah exactly, Like, yeah,

823
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 4: why wouldn't you go do that?

824
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 1: And the other headlines I'm just reading here. We got

825
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: Patty Mills opting out he's probably gonna still play for

826
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: the Nets there though. The Kings are not going to

827
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 1: make an offer on de Vincenzo. That one a little

828
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 1: eye opening. Also the Bucks, Bobby Portis is declining his

829
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: four point six million dollar option, his agent telling ESPN

830
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: that I know you, uh, you want to bring I

831
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: want to bring Perle back to the Raptors. You want

832
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: to bring Bobby back to the Bulls. Is that what

833
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 1: I saw the tweet?

834
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 4: It didn't work out the first time with Bobby Portis,

835
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 4: and he honestly jeopardized some Bulls draft picks when he

836
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 4: punched anikole A miriticch in the face, and then Miritis

837
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 4: came back in for whatever reason, the Bulls caught fire

838
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 4: and won a whole bunch of games in a row,

839
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 4: got the seventh pick. A disastrous and to the tenure

840
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 4: for Bobby Portis, but he would be incredible in Chicago.

841
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 4: They need size, they need shooting, they need defense, they

842
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 4: need some intensity. Bobby brings all of that stuff. So yeah,

843
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 4: I to see him back in Chicago. But the news

844
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,399
Speaker 4: I'm hoping for out of Chicago today is that Zach

845
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,359
Speaker 4: Lban gets that big fat bag. Casey Johnson of NBC

846
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 4: Sports Chicago's reporting he'll likely to sign for five years,

847
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 4: two hundred and fifteen million. I would be very happy

848
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 4: to see him get in that full max and.

849
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: Then the other big names we're going to be waiting

850
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: on over these next couple days. Everybody knows that by

851
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: now DeAndre Ayton it is sounding like he is not

852
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: going to play for the Suns and that we're possibly

853
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,760
Speaker 1: going to be seeing some sort of sign in trade

854
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: with Ayton. You know, what are the Jazz doing with

855
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 1: Rudy Gobert in terms of trading him? What are the

856
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 1: Pacers doing with their guys Malcolm Brogden, Miles Turner specifically,

857
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 1: you know Brogden. You thought Brogden was a team that

858
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 1: could he could go to, like the Wizards who needed

859
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,760
Speaker 1: sort of a guard. Now I wonder if that changes

860
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: after their deal, and are they content with Monte Morris

861
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,759
Speaker 1: as like sort of their leading point guard. And there

862
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,439
Speaker 1: isn't anything there happening with Brogden John Collins with the Hawks.

863
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 1: We've talked about that. So hopefully we get some action

864
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 1: here over over the day here on Thursday and then

865
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: of course into Friday. We'll be back for sure on

866
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,959
Speaker 1: Friday morning with a No Dunk's podcast. I know Lee's

867
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:11,839
Speaker 1: up in Toronto, I believe right now, but he has

868
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 1: plans to join us. I'm not sure about task. He's

869
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 1: doing a little bit traveling as well. But we'll get

870
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 1: as many guys as we can on here to hopefully break.

871
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 2: Down some of these signings. I think today is not

872
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 2: going to be insane, though.

873
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: I think it's literally going to be like Jalen Bruns

874
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 1: into the Knicks as expected, and then like and then

875
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: a couple of minor ones like signing Wise, I think

876
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna get another big, big trade

877
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: here today or tonight, but I could be wrongly.

878
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 4: Apparently the sixers are going to continue to be active,

879
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 4: especially with Harden taking his taking the option taking a

880
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,319
Speaker 4: little bit or declining the option to taking a little

881
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 4: bit less money. Tobias Harris is apparently a guy who

882
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 4: could be had if anybody's interested.

883
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 3: Bible is on the market.

884
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 4: I saw that John Hollinger's said that you just have

885
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 4: to ask nicely and you can get yourself a furcan

886
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 4: cork maz.

887
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 3: It'll be that easy.

888
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 4: But it feels like the cap space is starting to

889
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 4: dry up pretty quickly. You know, the Nicks created a

890
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 4: whole bunch of room that's going to go to Jalen Brunson.

891
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 4: The Spurs are obviously not a team that's going to

892
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 4: be signing anybody right now. The Pistons have done most

893
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 4: of their moves, so they're out of DeAndre Ayton sweepsticks.

894
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 4: So that's kind of a huge question to me, is

895
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 4: like where is DeAndre Ayton going to end up and

896
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,720
Speaker 4: what kind of contract is he going to be offered

897
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 4: to the point where like, is it going to be

898
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 4: cheap enough that the Suns are just like, well, we

899
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 4: might as well match it at that deal because the

900
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 4: places he was rumored to possibly be going, he ain't

901
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 4: going there anymore. He's not going to be in San Antonio.

902
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 4: It doesn't feel like he's definitely not going to be

903
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,880
Speaker 4: in Detroit. He's running out of places to go at

904
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 4: this point.
