I Can’t Believe These Players Didn’t Work Out… · Kenny For Real

0:00
Speaker 1: All right, y'all, can we talk about NBA missus, because
0:02
Speaker 1: y'all know my full time job is to talk NBA
0:04
Speaker 1: basketball and that you got to give opinions, you got
0:06
Speaker 1: to get takes, and nobody is shooting one hundred percent.
0:09
Speaker 1: I made this tweet a few weeks back that says,
0:13
Speaker 1: always tough when you have to come to the realization
0:15
Speaker 1: that a young player you like just isn't good. I
0:20
Speaker 1: got my fair share of these guys. I want to
0:21
Speaker 1: look at all the replies. I tweeted this is not
0:23
Speaker 1: really recognizing that it would go viral in NBA Twitter.
0:26
Speaker 1: One point three million views, four hundred different comments, and
0:29
Speaker 1: then a bunch of quote tweets and almost twelve thousand likes.
0:32
Speaker 1: So I want to see what y'all missed on, and
0:34
Speaker 1: I'll tell you my missus. Starting off with this one
0:38
Speaker 1: by depressed Pelican fan. He said Jordan Hawkins broken heart emoji.
0:42
Speaker 1: I replied to that, saying, just a a big shot.
0:44
Speaker 1: I agree. This is when they were playing against the
0:46
Speaker 1: Minnesota Timbles a few weeks back, and I'm be honest
0:49
Speaker 1: with you, watching Jordan Hawkins in that game is the
0:52
Speaker 1: reason I tweeted this This Vidit is brought to you
0:53
Speaker 1: by Bombas. Bombas is a premium bases brand with a
0:56
Speaker 1: mission to help people in need, and twenty thirteen the
0:58
Speaker 1: owners found out when it comes to homeless shelt's a
1:00
Speaker 1: thing that people ask for the most, it's just socks,
1:02
Speaker 1: so they made it their mission to help. Every time
1:04
Speaker 1: you buy something from Bombas, something is donated to those
1:06
Speaker 1: people in need. It's not the first or the last
1:08
Speaker 1: time Bombas is sponsoring a video because I am a
1:11
Speaker 1: firm believer of their products and my household. We have
1:14
Speaker 1: outside shoes and house shoes, and for a few years
1:18
Speaker 1: now my house shoes has been Bombas. These black ones
1:21
Speaker 1: have been the ones I've been rocking for quite some time.
1:23
Speaker 1: I don't want to put them on Campra for too
1:24
Speaker 1: long because they get daily used, so they may not
1:26
Speaker 1: look as good A year and some chains in two
1:29
Speaker 1: of it. I promise you they feel as soft today
1:30
Speaker 1: as they did when I first bought. The slippers are
1:32
Speaker 1: the thing that I love the most, but they also
1:34
Speaker 1: have socks, they have underwear, they have T shirts, all premium,
1:37
Speaker 1: feel good and do good with Bombas. Because you know
1:40
Speaker 1: that your purchase is doing real good. Be sure to
1:43
Speaker 1: hit the Lincoln in the description, use code Kenny twenty to
1:45
Speaker 1: get twenty percent off your first purchase with Bombas and
1:48
Speaker 1: his holiday season, and Bombas is the perfect gift. Jordan
1:52
Speaker 1: Hawkins was one of my favorite prospects in this draft. Obviously,
1:55
Speaker 1: he wasn't a highly tired one. I try my very
1:57
Speaker 1: best to not just say, like, oh, the first overall
1:59
Speaker 1: pick guy is going to be good, but try to
2:00
Speaker 1: five people that's a little bit deeper cut. Jordan Hawkins
2:03
Speaker 1: has just won a Natty at Yukon and at the
2:05
Speaker 1: bare minimum, like I didn't think he had superstar potential,
2:08
Speaker 1: even all star potential, but at the bare minimum, he
2:10
Speaker 1: looked like a player that will be able to play
2:12
Speaker 1: in the NBA for a very long time because the
2:14
Speaker 1: jump shooting was so pure. And don't to say it
2:16
Speaker 1: ain't over for a lot of the guys who I
2:17
Speaker 1: meant to today. These guys are all really young. Jordan
2:19
Speaker 1: Hawkins himself is only twenty three years old. But he
2:21
Speaker 1: is a guy that came to mind when I made
2:22
Speaker 1: this tweet. I need him to be successful because Jordan Hawkins,
2:25
Speaker 1: my boy, you know what I'm saying. But his last
2:27
Speaker 1: year college, his sophomore year in college, he shot forty
2:30
Speaker 1: percent from the field. We go round up for you. Well,
2:33
Speaker 1: this is in his entire college career, but he shot
2:35
Speaker 1: forty percent from the field his last year in thirty
2:37
Speaker 1: eight point eight percent from three on about eight attempts
2:39
Speaker 1: at the college level. That's pretty good. So in my mind,
2:43
Speaker 1: at the bare minimum, with the frame of six five
2:45
Speaker 1: or skinn he got six five one eighty five, that
2:47
Speaker 1: he would be able to just get NBA PT off
2:50
Speaker 1: the fact that he is a good shooter. He's got
2:53
Speaker 1: to the NBA, and his first year was pretty promising,
2:56
Speaker 1: thirty six percent from three. He played seventeen minutes perry
2:59
Speaker 1: average about eight minutes. Second year, the efficiency dropped a
3:02
Speaker 1: little bit, but his shots jumped up, so no big deal.
3:04
Speaker 1: Now this year he's only playing fourteen minutes per game.
3:08
Speaker 1: Last night he played one minute in a garbage time game,
3:12
Speaker 1: four minutes the game before that, fourteen a game before that.
3:15
Speaker 1: And it got bad that Bryce McGowan's who just got
3:18
Speaker 1: signed to the team not too long Goo has jumped
3:20
Speaker 1: him in the rotation, and it just I don't know.
3:23
Speaker 1: I'm rooted for bro because again I need him to
3:25
Speaker 1: be good, just because I really am a fan of his.
3:29
Speaker 1: But if he's not gonna be able to make his
3:30
Speaker 1: three point shots, which he hasn't been able to do
3:32
Speaker 1: really at the NBA level thirty six percent the first year,
3:34
Speaker 1: thirty three percent the second year, and then thirty three
3:35
Speaker 1: percent this year, he just doesn't have enough redeeming factors.
3:38
Speaker 1: Also was a huge fan of the team he got
3:40
Speaker 1: drafted to right Zion Man. Zion needs some shooting like
3:43
Speaker 1: Jordan Hawkins, and obviously they haven't. Well, Zion doesn't really play,
3:46
Speaker 1: but he hasn't been able to find that necessarily. And
3:50
Speaker 1: I think what bothers me the most out of this?
3:53
Speaker 1: And I can't act like I was a guy that
3:55
Speaker 1: watched his entirety of his sophomore year at Yukon. It
3:58
Speaker 1: is the shot diet with the inefficiencies. You can't be
4:02
Speaker 1: a long mid range shooter without hitting lone midrangers. If
4:06
Speaker 1: you're gonna be a long mid ring shooter, you have
4:07
Speaker 1: to be the Marto Rolls, you have to be brandon Ingram,
4:09
Speaker 1: you have to be these dudes that make it work
4:12
Speaker 1: it because at the end of the day, in twenty
4:13
Speaker 1: twenty five, twenty twenty six, that's just not a valuable
4:15
Speaker 1: shot for a role player forty percent on long minies,
4:18
Speaker 1: which is fine, it's league average, but it's not good enough,
4:21
Speaker 1: and he doesn't get to the rim. It's just not
4:23
Speaker 1: a lot of greatness. And it's frustrating because, boy, let
4:26
Speaker 1: me show you his shot. His shot is so pure.
4:28
Speaker 1: I'm so lucky to be able to just type in
4:30
Speaker 1: Jordan Hawkins jump shooting and just have every jump shot
4:32
Speaker 1: he's ever taken in his NBA career. It's just sitting
4:34
Speaker 1: right here. But he just look how pure. I mean,
4:37
Speaker 1: you've probably seen Jordan Hawk's play, but for the people
4:39
Speaker 1: that have, and look how pure he is right here
4:40
Speaker 1: on this this left wing right there, number twenty four,
4:43
Speaker 1: give me one, Jeremiah Yu Boom. That's just a pure,
4:46
Speaker 1: pure looking jumper. I know that brick, but that's kind
4:49
Speaker 1: of the way it's been for him. It's just so
4:50
Speaker 1: pure that it don't make sense to me that it
4:53
Speaker 1: don't go in. So that was a miss on my part,
4:55
Speaker 1: but we still wrote it for you. The next big reply, unfortunately,
4:59
Speaker 1: comes from automatic NBA that puts the three men in
5:02
Speaker 1: highlight reel of Rob Dellingham. Funny enough again, when I
5:06
Speaker 1: make this tweet, I'm watching the Pelicans versus the Minnesota Tembleolves,
5:11
Speaker 1: and Rob Dillingham comes to mind as well. Now, it
5:13
Speaker 1: is unfair to put a second year I mean, maybe
5:16
Speaker 1: even unfair to put a third year player like Jordan Hawkin's,
5:18
Speaker 1: but it's extremely unfair to put a second year player
5:20
Speaker 1: into these conversations because there's so much time for Rob
5:22
Speaker 1: Dillingham to become good. But he has to climb the
5:26
Speaker 1: biggest mountain of all time to be like a real,
5:28
Speaker 1: real NBA player, to make him as valuable as the
5:32
Speaker 1: Minnesota Tembles had him when they traded for him on
5:34
Speaker 1: Draft night. I think we all like Rob because when
5:36
Speaker 1: he is hooping, at least, you know, before the NBA,
5:39
Speaker 1: his highlight reel could be crazy. It's Rob's with the ships,
5:41
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That guy, he's really about that.
5:44
Speaker 1: But it's just so much harder when you have the
5:46
Speaker 1: frame that he has. This is let me show you
5:48
Speaker 1: something that might well blew my mind. A few weeks back,
5:50
Speaker 1: Rob Dillingham is this as six two one seventy five,
5:53
Speaker 1: six two seventy five. That's from Basketball Reference. I'm gonna
5:57
Speaker 1: compare him that six two one seventy five to Aaron Fox.
6:01
Speaker 1: Daron Fox is listed at six three five, one inch taller,
6:04
Speaker 1: ten pounds heavier, one inch taller, ten pounds heavier. Got
6:08
Speaker 1: me a little while ago those two teams played against
6:10
Speaker 1: his other, the Spurs played against the Tim Boles. I
6:12
Speaker 1: forget who won this game. Actually, I remember coming down
6:14
Speaker 1: to the wire about the top of my mind. I
6:16
Speaker 1: can't remember who won. So turnover by Rob Diddlingham, Rob
6:19
Speaker 1: picks up darn Fox. Why look, you don't take him
6:22
Speaker 1: to the post because he a baby. Why does one
6:25
Speaker 1: inch of height and ten pounds look so much different now? Again?
6:29
Speaker 1: Robins in his defensive stands a little bit so like
6:31
Speaker 1: he's leaning over, But he just looks even so much
6:34
Speaker 1: smaller than the dude that's supposed to be one inch
6:36
Speaker 1: taller and ten pounds heavier. And if the Aaron Fox
6:40
Speaker 1: is making you look that small, which is what he is,
6:42
Speaker 1: I just don't see how you would be able to
6:46
Speaker 1: be on a court in the playoffs where it's all
6:49
Speaker 1: matchup base and for you to be successful unless your
6:52
Speaker 1: offensive upside is ridiculous. Trey Young made it work because
6:56
Speaker 1: Trey Young in twenty twenty one was one of the
6:59
Speaker 1: best systems in all basketball. So yeah, we try to
7:01
Speaker 1: hide him on defensive teams are hunting him, but damn
7:03
Speaker 1: we can still win ball games with him in the
7:04
Speaker 1: court because his offense is so crazy. Rob Dillingham doesn't
7:07
Speaker 1: have the luxury of that offense. And he's also that small,
7:10
Speaker 1: like he's he's like the smallest dude in the NBA man,
7:14
Speaker 1: And it's hard to play this physical sport where it's
7:18
Speaker 1: all about matchups in twenty twenty five when you are
7:21
Speaker 1: that small and that's just a regular season game. I
7:23
Speaker 1: could go through and find the footage of other games
7:26
Speaker 1: he's played more recently where teams have done something very
7:29
Speaker 1: similar with him into a ton of actions, and it's
7:31
Speaker 1: just regular season ball where of course teams want to win,
7:33
Speaker 1: but it's not like the postseason where you're the whole
7:37
Speaker 1: goal is to scheme up against the opposing team. You know,
7:40
Speaker 1: last year he didn't play in the playoffs. This year,
7:42
Speaker 1: they may, depending on how this trade dead line of
7:45
Speaker 1: stuff goes, they may need him to play. And I
7:47
Speaker 1: just hopefully he proves me wrong, right, because again, I
7:50
Speaker 1: want these guys to be successful, but it's hard to
7:51
Speaker 1: really see. Maybe I need to learn more. Rob Dillingham
7:54
Speaker 1: after the damn reports about the Timberwolves being interested in
7:56
Speaker 1: Kobe White. What else is that trade? Look like? I
7:59
Speaker 1: don't know. Another one came came up as from Danny
8:01
Speaker 1: k who said, so insane to peak the first two
8:04
Speaker 1: weeks of your rookie year, talking about Chris d'orte, who
8:08
Speaker 1: his This is such a crazy graphic when you think
8:11
Speaker 1: about Evan Mobley having a DPO, Why Scottie Barnes being
8:14
Speaker 1: an All Star, Franz vargen To being on his way
8:16
Speaker 1: to an All Star gave before his injury, and Jalen
8:19
Speaker 1: Green still he could get buckets. And then Chris Dorte
8:21
Speaker 1: who's out of the league, like he was on the
8:23
Speaker 1: Bulls last year at the end of the season, but
8:26
Speaker 1: nobody else picked him up. And for the first two
8:29
Speaker 1: weeks of his NBA career he was leading the rookie ladder.
8:32
Speaker 1: We should have known, right, It was like, let me
8:34
Speaker 1: go look at these stats again from the first two
8:35
Speaker 1: weeks because if I remember correctly, he was shooting it ridiculous.
8:38
Speaker 1: Right now, he's playing in the Spanish league, so shout
8:41
Speaker 1: out to him. Oh my god, bro, so his first
8:44
Speaker 1: let's say, nine games of his career. This happens in
8:48
Speaker 1: seventeen points per game. He was shooting forty three percent
8:51
Speaker 1: from three on six attempts. That should have been all
8:53
Speaker 1: we needed to know to say like, yeah, this guy's
8:56
Speaker 1: not really liked that, and remind you he was a
8:58
Speaker 1: thirteenth overall pick. It ain't like the fourth overall pick
9:01
Speaker 1: coming in and spaz in the star where you like
9:03
Speaker 1: to have some level of belief because he was a
9:05
Speaker 1: fourth overall pick. No, it was a number thirteen pick. Who,
9:08
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, came in old as well? How
9:10
Speaker 1: old is Chris Dorg He was twenty four? He was
9:15
Speaker 1: the age Anthony Edwards is today his first game of
9:17
Speaker 1: his NBA season or was in my career. So we
9:20
Speaker 1: should have just known. We should have just known. But
9:23
Speaker 1: some of us are like, oh those numbers look too good. No.
9:27
Speaker 1: I wasn't one of them guys that thought he was
9:28
Speaker 1: about to be a star. But I was like, oh,
9:30
Speaker 1: that's a real NBA player. Nah. Now, these three back
9:34
Speaker 1: to back to back are people that I believed in,
9:36
Speaker 1: the first one being from PACER's Enjoyer that says his
9:39
Speaker 1: name rhymes with where is Jalker? Talking about Jers Walker?
9:44
Speaker 1: Who I had a lot of stock in. He was
9:47
Speaker 1: one of my favorite rookies in his class. I thought
9:50
Speaker 1: he did that Houston was basically everything you kind of
9:52
Speaker 1: need at the NBA level to fend a good amount,
9:54
Speaker 1: be able to get to the basket three point shot
9:57
Speaker 1: okay enough, And I thought for sure that he was
9:59
Speaker 1: gonna come into the n and not immediately be impactful,
10:01
Speaker 1: but eventually one day. And I still help that Stockett
10:04
Speaker 1: to coming into the season. Halliburton being gone, now's Turner
10:07
Speaker 1: being gone. There's gonna be a lot opportunity for Jared's
10:09
Speaker 1: to go out there and show that he's worthy of
10:11
Speaker 1: a second contract. And then we get to I don't know,
10:14
Speaker 1: twelve games into the season, and they signed a guy
10:17
Speaker 1: named Jeremi Roberson Earl. The pace has so many injuries,
10:19
Speaker 1: they signed a guy Jeremi Robinson Earl to be on
10:21
Speaker 1: the team. And I ain't think nothing of it until
10:23
Speaker 1: I'll load it into their next game and Jeremi Robinson
10:25
Speaker 1: Earl off the streets was starting over. Jareds Walker. The
10:30
Speaker 1: one thing jars Walker has is that the catcher sheet
10:32
Speaker 1: repoints shot looks cool, but everything else he looks checked out.
10:35
Speaker 1: And that that's just not good because this is your
10:38
Speaker 1: time where guy like Benna McMath is showing you that
10:41
Speaker 1: you need to come out there and prove it because
10:43
Speaker 1: this team has some big decisions, right, how do we
10:45
Speaker 1: acquire a new center? I mean, if they don't look
10:48
Speaker 1: at me as part of the future, then them and
10:50
Speaker 1: I might be packing my bag. So I need to
10:51
Speaker 1: play well enough this season, and I wouldn't be surprised
10:54
Speaker 1: if eventually when the Pacers do get that center. Well
10:56
Speaker 1: maybe I guess it's rumored to be maybe Zobots or something.
10:58
Speaker 1: If they go out there to get a zoobot or
11:00
Speaker 1: somebody else that claes I'm not claxing. Oh maybe this
11:02
Speaker 1: clax But a guy like Jeris Walker is a name
11:04
Speaker 1: that's thrown into the trades because he hasn't showed enough
11:06
Speaker 1: to make you feel like he shouldn't be in a
11:08
Speaker 1: trade like this. Everybody else above him from that position
11:10
Speaker 1: between Pascal and Obi, you just value more even if
11:13
Speaker 1: he is I don't know, six four years younger than
11:16
Speaker 1: Pascal Sie I don't know what that number is, but yeah,
11:21
Speaker 1: the next one, actually, Nikolai Jovich, I like faked believe
11:24
Speaker 1: in it. It was one of the things where like,
11:26
Speaker 1: you know, if you have friends that watch hoops as
11:28
Speaker 1: well or care about basketball, they may have opinions about players.
11:32
Speaker 1: And a lot of the guys on the panuel of
11:33
Speaker 1: numbers on the board were big Nikolai Jovi's guys, and
11:35
Speaker 1: I never really saw it too much, but it was
11:37
Speaker 1: like I was influenced by him enough to be like, yeah,
11:39
Speaker 1: Nikoli Jovid. Then he got a little bit of a
11:41
Speaker 1: bag and it's like, oh yeah, and then he's like
11:43
Speaker 1: out of the rotation. This is just out, just out.
11:46
Speaker 1: And then the last one in this little stretch here
11:48
Speaker 1: being ingram to go, Kenny finally realized that Patrick Williams
11:52
Speaker 1: is it good? Well, buddy, I figured that out pretty
11:54
Speaker 1: well in his career, but it's got to the point
11:56
Speaker 1: now where it's like he is the worst. I'm being
12:00
Speaker 1: hyperbolic here, but he is one of the worst, like
12:03
Speaker 1: true rotational players in the NBA. And we still got
12:05
Speaker 1: with three more years of his contract before anything. It's
12:08
Speaker 1: like we say, the NBA doesn't have untradeable contracts, because
12:11
Speaker 1: even the most untradable contracts, you tax a pitch to it,
12:14
Speaker 1: some team be interested. Patrick Williams feels like an untraitable contract, y'all.
12:17
Speaker 1: He doesn't do anything. He's like he I call him
12:20
Speaker 1: almost man. He almost made the right a good possession there,
12:23
Speaker 1: or almost made a good play right there. He almost
12:24
Speaker 1: made the right pass. He almost didn't travel when he
12:26
Speaker 1: was getting to the basket. And then he is also
12:29
Speaker 1: a guy that man. He also is a guy that's
12:34
Speaker 1: not there for the second move Defensively. I don't know
12:38
Speaker 1: how to explain it. You have to watch Bulls bask
12:39
Speaker 1: About to really understand what I'm talking about. And this
12:42
Speaker 1: team sucks at rebounding and the amount of times I've
12:44
Speaker 1: seen Patrick Williams torch the ball on the rebound and
12:47
Speaker 1: not jump blows my mind. I've known he's been bad
12:49
Speaker 1: for some time, but I ain't. But bad is relative.
12:53
Speaker 1: He's terrible now. He was bad then, he's terrible now.
12:57
Speaker 1: And thank god the brother do got social media because
12:59
Speaker 1: I feel like his comments sex will be crazy with
13:01
Speaker 1: Bulls fans because he has been bad. And I've said
13:05
Speaker 1: it before, when you are a team that does not
13:07
Speaker 1: have a superstar or struggling to find a superstar, or
13:10
Speaker 1: a team that won't be out there to go trade
13:12
Speaker 1: for Luca Dantis or sign a guy or have Kevin
13:15
Speaker 1: Durant have you on his list of teams who wanted
13:17
Speaker 1: to get traded to missing in the draft and sets
13:19
Speaker 1: your team back like three to five years. You jump
13:23
Speaker 1: up in the lotary to the fourth pick in twenty
13:25
Speaker 1: twenty and you draft a guy who averaged nine points
13:28
Speaker 1: per game in college while coming off the bench. He
13:32
Speaker 1: couldn't dribble in He can't dribble now. He didn't rebound there,
13:34
Speaker 1: he doesn't rebound now. He kind of like Hawaii Leonard
13:37
Speaker 1: on the court. And that was the reason he got
13:38
Speaker 1: drafted fourth. That's crazy to me. So because we missed
13:41
Speaker 1: that one. And I've told the story before. Tyre's Halliburton
13:44
Speaker 1: thought he was going to be drafted number four. By
13:46
Speaker 1: the way, I had did all my researcher, Denny Abdia,
13:49
Speaker 1: thinking that he was about to get drafted at four.
13:51
Speaker 1: We go get a guy. Go look at my drafted
13:53
Speaker 1: reaction to us picking Patrick Williams, and you can see
13:56
Speaker 1: it in my eyes like I ain't believe in none
13:58
Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, I've been known that he's not good,
14:02
Speaker 1: but I do. Why are we here on the bulls
14:03
Speaker 1: and this is not a bulls channel, but damn it,
14:05
Speaker 1: that's my favorite team. Derek Queen has been hoopy. Shout
14:07
Speaker 1: out to my body Queen. It's early before the season started.
14:12
Speaker 1: I made a podcast episode while I was talking about
14:16
Speaker 1: how Joe Dumars was crazy for trading that pick for
14:19
Speaker 1: dere Queen. It wasn't about Derek Queen. It never was
14:21
Speaker 1: about Dear Queen. But Derek Queen saw that because he
14:23
Speaker 1: follows me on Instagram and he wasn't a fan of that,
14:25
Speaker 1: which I understand. Like, if I was a play, I
14:28
Speaker 1: would probably feel the same way. You're telling me that
14:29
Speaker 1: that dude made a bad trade when he traded for me.
14:31
Speaker 1: That must mean you think I'm asked, and it's never
14:32
Speaker 1: been a case. I still don't think that trade has
14:34
Speaker 1: been amazing. Right. They have the second worst record in
14:37
Speaker 1: Basketball's obviously, but dere Queen is coopid enough that like
14:40
Speaker 1: the pendulum has sworn slightly in the direction of Okay,
14:44
Speaker 1: it all depends on what that pick end up being
14:46
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. Anyway. A couple of
14:48
Speaker 1: days ago, I make this tweet. Dere Queen has a
14:51
Speaker 1: thirty point triple double in a game. I think they
14:53
Speaker 1: lost that game to Yeah, I think I'm almost positive
14:55
Speaker 1: they lost their game, and I tweet this the laventh
14:58
Speaker 1: overall pick Portland trail Blaze officially drafted Sedga Coward. They
15:02
Speaker 1: traded him away to the Grizzlies, and you know whatever
15:06
Speaker 1: Twitt throwrop pick ends up being Knowing sing Gag who
15:08
Speaker 1: has played four minutes in his NBA career, and then
15:10
Speaker 1: dere Queen at thirteen. I tweet this out of frustration, right,
15:15
Speaker 1: Sedga Coward was literally my number one guy for the Bulls,
15:18
Speaker 1: like my Bulls big board, because I knew I couldn't
15:19
Speaker 1: get Dylan Harper, you know what I mean, my Bulls
15:21
Speaker 1: big boy, and he got drafted one pick before us.
15:23
Speaker 1: And now obviously dear Queeny's playing so well, and I'm
15:25
Speaker 1: like frustrated that my rookie, Knowing Singate has played four
15:29
Speaker 1: minutes and won't be able to play for the rest
15:31
Speaker 1: of the season. People saw this, It's like me sliding
15:35
Speaker 1: knowing Sengate. But guess what, brother, I need Knowing Singate
15:38
Speaker 1: to be good. Damn it. I'm not out on Nois Senate,
15:40
Speaker 1: but it's more of the frustration of watching the two
15:42
Speaker 1: rookies drafted before and after be so damn good that
15:45
Speaker 1: there's a ton of pressure. Unfortunately for Noah. It's a
15:48
Speaker 1: ton of pressure for Noah to be great, not just
15:51
Speaker 1: because the people that was drafted above him a right
15:53
Speaker 1: one pick behind him, but also because, as Joe Dumars
15:57
Speaker 1: has told us, he called every team between eight and
15:59
Speaker 1: thirteen to get the Derrek Queen pick. Right the Bulls
16:03
Speaker 1: turned down the trade that the Atlanta Hawks accepted the
16:07
Speaker 1: unprotected Repelicans pick. So not only do you have to
16:11
Speaker 1: be great because the guy drafted after you looks like
16:13
Speaker 1: a great offensive system, Because there is a whirl where
16:16
Speaker 1: the Bulls say yes to that trade, we have picked
16:18
Speaker 1: number twenty two instead of pick number twelve, and we
16:20
Speaker 1: also have a top three pick this season from the Pelicans.
16:24
Speaker 1: That's all, no what, maybe we need you to be great.
16:26
Speaker 1: I watched them gv Gas. I literally watched him. I
16:29
Speaker 1: didn't see highlights. I literally watched him in the G
16:31
Speaker 1: League live because I need him to be great. And
16:33
Speaker 1: he look good. Foul rates still look good. But he
16:36
Speaker 1: is now behind in his development by a year because
16:39
Speaker 1: he's gonna have shower surgery. So a guy that was
16:41
Speaker 1: already the youngest dude in the NBA and already a
16:44
Speaker 1: super young prospect is losing basically an entire nine months
16:48
Speaker 1: of progression while the rest of his peers are playing basketball.
16:51
Speaker 1: It's not the greatest start, that's all. And I'm taking
16:54
Speaker 1: this responsibility for the misinterpretation of this tweet because I
16:57
Speaker 1: didn't add any context. I literally just tweeted it. Now,
16:59
Speaker 1: if I add that full context, I'm sure people wouldn't
17:02
Speaker 1: be upset about it. But I didn't have context. So
17:03
Speaker 1: I'll take my l back to the players that we
17:07
Speaker 1: believed in and didn't end up working. Neil said, I
17:09
Speaker 1: was all in on Jerikove. I couldn't get behind that
17:11
Speaker 1: with my brother. I'm always afraid of a guy that
17:13
Speaker 1: has a really good turney run and then his stock
17:15
Speaker 1: jumps up so much. I never thought he was about
17:17
Speaker 1: to be great, and he was at the lake really
17:20
Speaker 1: really fast. Man. Oh we had to football Twitter. Oh snap, bro.
17:24
Speaker 1: I defended this guy like he was the next messy,
17:27
Speaker 1: even changed my password to his name. I had hope
17:30
Speaker 1: for him, and he fell off. I don't even know
17:31
Speaker 1: who that brother is. And the thing about soccer, I
17:35
Speaker 1: can't google it. You don't have a jersey number. I
17:37
Speaker 1: see it as man you but how would I find
17:40
Speaker 1: out who that is? But I guess he fell off.
17:41
Speaker 1: According to Charles, he got six replies to see what
17:43
Speaker 1: they said to Charles, wasn't expecting to come on this
17:45
Speaker 1: app and talk, Oh that's his name? Got it real
17:48
Speaker 1: ball knowledge. Finally someone gets it. United has a bunch
17:51
Speaker 1: of such guys who sold dreams. Chris Eagle. I remember
17:55
Speaker 1: when I was really into soccer. I need to hop
17:56
Speaker 1: back year in bro because soccer was a super fun
17:58
Speaker 1: phase for me. It's a fun ass sport. But I
18:02
Speaker 1: just obviously my job is my job, so I don't
18:04
Speaker 1: really be having a lot of time like that. Oo
18:08
Speaker 1: gg man thought Gigi. I think he'd been gg Oh
18:13
Speaker 1: gig stand for Greg. Oh my god, yeah it does okay,
18:17
Speaker 1: thought Greg would be a star. I can't say I agree,
18:21
Speaker 1: but I do be looking at like those dudes that
18:24
Speaker 1: are highly talented coming out of high school may not
18:27
Speaker 1: have the greatest college career and falling the draft. I
18:30
Speaker 1: be liking taking swings on those dudes, and they did
18:33
Speaker 1: that without having to do it with a lottery pick
18:35
Speaker 1: or whatever. So when his first season when he was
18:37
Speaker 1: you know, playing for that really bad team and creating
18:40
Speaker 1: for himself, and all of that. He looked really good.
18:42
Speaker 1: But it's something about his game that the lack of
18:46
Speaker 1: structure is beneficial to him. And I feel like that
18:49
Speaker 1: might be the case for a lot of these guys.
18:50
Speaker 1: You believe in that that guy can, that brother can
18:52
Speaker 1: hoop mentality, a lot of times you add that structure
18:55
Speaker 1: to it, it ends up falling apart. I vividly remember
18:58
Speaker 1: that one game college. Again, I'm not a super big
19:01
Speaker 1: college basketball person. One game in college he must have
19:04
Speaker 1: got benched by his coach or something. Something happened. He
19:07
Speaker 1: didn't get the last shot, and he went into the
19:09
Speaker 1: locker room and went on Instagram live immediately after the game,
19:12
Speaker 1: and I was like, yeah, I don't know about Bro.
19:15
Speaker 1: He's super. Yeah, he was super. Yeah, he's like seventeen
19:16
Speaker 1: years old. You reclassified, so we should have gave him
19:18
Speaker 1: benefitted out. But I immediately remember, like, I don't like that.
19:21
Speaker 1: Somebody said matist Stible, I mean matist Staple made all
19:23
Speaker 1: defensive team Bro. That's kind of crazy to think about,
19:27
Speaker 1: who the hell is this? Who is this? Oh? It
19:33
Speaker 1: literally says Bowl is different. I'm dumb. I thought that
19:36
Speaker 1: said Bro is different. Bowl is different. I can't say
19:41
Speaker 1: I was a big bobo guy, but I understand it.
19:43
Speaker 1: I understand the height considering what he looked like in
19:45
Speaker 1: high school. They did him dirty by giving him a
19:48
Speaker 1: draft day, a draft day green room invite crazy for that,
19:53
Speaker 1: and he fell all the way to where he fail too.
19:55
Speaker 1: Let's do a couple more. You know a lot of
19:56
Speaker 1: this that I'm looking at. It is really just if
19:58
Speaker 1: I look at the name and then I look over
19:59
Speaker 1: at your profile. Most of the people me included, like
20:02
Speaker 1: you just saw, Most of these are people seeing their
20:05
Speaker 1: front officers draft somebody than having to convince themselves that
20:08
Speaker 1: that guy will be good. It's like the blind faith
20:10
Speaker 1: we have in our front offices. This guy said Carson
20:14
Speaker 1: Edwards was supposed to be the next STEPH Curry. No
20:18
Speaker 1: he wasn't. No, he wasn't. And I liked Carson Edwards,
20:22
Speaker 1: but I didn't think he was an NBA player. Definitely
20:24
Speaker 1: not no next STEPH Curry. How many people agree with that?
20:26
Speaker 1: Twenty four? What was man? I need y'all to scout
20:29
Speaker 1: the other twenty nine teams so my team could get
20:31
Speaker 1: the best pick. Some of these replies are kind of crazy,
20:34
Speaker 1: because I guess it depends on your perspective of what
20:37
Speaker 1: the word good means, because some names in here are
20:39
Speaker 1: good basketball players, maybe not great basketball players, and you
20:43
Speaker 1: may have thought they were going to be a superstar,
20:44
Speaker 1: right because I'm seeing names and like players that will
20:48
Speaker 1: be ten year vets, you know, that will have long
20:51
Speaker 1: NBA careers. Man, it's a lot of school Henderson's in there. Damn.
20:55
Speaker 1: I still have some. I still have some School Henderson's stock. Man,
20:59
Speaker 1: I still got some School Henderson's stock. I won't sell
21:02
Speaker 1: it just yet. I need to see him play at
21:04
Speaker 1: least thirty games this year before I sell that stock.
21:07
Speaker 1: But it looked like they the front office might be
21:09
Speaker 1: selling that stock too, considering all the guards they've acquired
21:11
Speaker 1: about over the last year. Okay, I think Yeah, we've
21:14
Speaker 1: been going for a long time. I ended there, shout
21:17
Speaker 1: out to all the guys we mentioned again, nothing no
21:19
Speaker 1: bad blood, nothing but love and hope for all of y'all.
21:21
Speaker 1: I want everybody to eat. I want you to eat
21:23
Speaker 1: as well. Leave a like, subscribe, Yeah,
