Latest / Kenny For Real / 1 Trade Every NBA Team Would Make If the Deadline Was Today
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Happy NBA trade season, Ladies and gentlemen. It is the
- 0:02Speaker 1: seven fifteen means that about ninety percent of the NBA
- 0:06Speaker 1: players are eligible to be traded today. Will that be
- 0:09Speaker 1: a trade today? Probably not, but I'm sure the phones
- 0:11Speaker 1: a getting picked up. We're gonna have some conversations starting.
- 0:13Speaker 1: So I really love this time of the year. I'm
- 0:16Speaker 1: sure you do to. Trading is one of the coolest
- 0:18Speaker 1: parts about sports in general. And BR put together an
- 0:22Speaker 1: article one trade every NBA team would make if the
- 0:24Speaker 1: deadline was today. Again, it's not today. It's just to start.
- 0:27Speaker 1: But get the juices flowing, the brain flowing on some
- 0:30Speaker 1: potential things. Shout out to Zach Buckley and the team
- 0:32Speaker 1: over at BR. Starting off, No, that ain't me. I
- 0:37Speaker 1: ain't the one looking up hyper realistic transformers that cost
- 0:40Speaker 1: one thousand dollars.
- 0:41Speaker 2: No, that ain't.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Then add geared strictly to me. Starting off with the
- 0:45Speaker 1: Atlanta Hawks traded for Anthony Davis. Okay, you know you
- 0:48Speaker 1: got a lot of Atlanta Hawks rumors, but a lot
- 0:50Speaker 1: of them are gearing around Jannis. I haven't seen much
- 0:53Speaker 1: Anthony Davis, so it is porzingis a snule Canard, A
- 0:58Speaker 1: top four protective pick from Milwaukee or the Pelicans for
- 1:03Speaker 1: twenty twenty.
- 1:03Speaker 2: Seven for Anthony Davis.
- 1:07Speaker 1: You know, I haven't thought much about what Anthony Davis
- 1:11Speaker 1: in Atlanta would look like. This allows them to still
- 1:13Speaker 1: be able to have Trey Young get will soon Trey Young.
- 1:16Speaker 1: We still waiting to see what you look like on
- 1:18Speaker 1: that team. You retain Jayalen Johnson, you retain Dyson Daniel's
- 1:21Speaker 1: and Zachary Reese.
- 1:22Speaker 2: I say, I wonder if.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Anthony Davis ends up being the Constellation Prize outside of
- 1:27Speaker 1: the Giannis trade rumors and all because Gianni's is gonna
- 1:31Speaker 1: be way more expensive it's ray for than Anthony Davis, Like,
- 1:34Speaker 1: this is not bad value for a guy like Ad.
- 1:37Speaker 1: And assuming Trey Young comes back and he's able to
- 1:40Speaker 1: continue to do some Trey Young type things at the
- 1:42Speaker 1: level that we've seen him do previous year, is not
- 1:43Speaker 1: this year you have Trey Young, Ad, Jalen Johnson reach
- 1:47Speaker 1: I say in Dyson Damesons you'll five and then you
- 1:50Speaker 1: got a twenty point per game guy to Kelsea to
- 1:52Speaker 1: walk coming off the bench a man. And now the
- 1:54Speaker 1: real question is from the other side, from the Dallas
- 1:56Speaker 1: Maverick side, would this potentially be the best trade offer
- 1:59Speaker 1: they could get. I guess it really boils down to
- 2:01Speaker 1: how much do you value this pick from the New
- 2:04Speaker 1: Orleans and Milwaukee swap. You're kind of counting on the
- 2:07Speaker 1: New Orleans Pelicans to not be good next season and
- 2:10Speaker 1: for the Milky Bucks to may be traded with Yannis.
- 2:12Speaker 1: So this pick can be valuable but also not top four.
- 2:15Speaker 1: It's an interesting trade. Also depends on how much you
- 2:17Speaker 1: believe in as Newel if you are the Dallas Mavericks,
- 2:21Speaker 1: because for Zingis isn't expiring and he's going through his
- 2:23Speaker 1: own personal things, get will soon and Lukenard is just
- 2:27Speaker 1: like a guy that gets flipped around.
- 2:28Speaker 2: So the value of this trade is a sinewle.
- 2:31Speaker 1: And then this pick the other thing is basically just
- 2:33Speaker 1: salary filler, and that may not be enough if you're.
- 2:35Speaker 2: The Dallas Mavericks.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Next, what is what that adds right now? Man the
- 2:40Speaker 1: Boston Celtics Miles Turner. It is Anthony Simons. Josh might
- 2:44Speaker 1: not in a second wait a twenty twenty six second
- 2:47Speaker 1: round pick in a twenty thirty one top Okay, I got.
- 2:49Speaker 2: To say, whoa is that?
- 2:50Speaker 1: The value of Miles Turning nowadays so I am very
- 2:53Speaker 1: interested to see how the Dallas the Boston Celtics play
- 2:56Speaker 1: this deadline. Obviously they have to trade a ton of stuff,
- 2:59Speaker 1: you know, between Drew and Porzingis, and how Horfel walking
- 3:02Speaker 1: in the free agency after winning the championship is a
- 3:04Speaker 1: few seasons ago because of the second Apron and Anthony
- 3:07Speaker 1: Simons is an expiring So I always wonder with a
- 3:11Speaker 1: team like this that is expecting that their star player
- 3:13Speaker 1: Jason Tatum will be back, will they be buyers right now?
- 3:16Speaker 1: There's part of me that feel like yes, but it's
- 3:19Speaker 1: also part of me that feels like they may believe
- 3:21Speaker 1: in the mans Cata as their five.
- 3:23Speaker 2: I don't think this is terrible value for Miles Turner.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Obviously his overall counting stats has not been great this season,
- 3:31Speaker 1: but I could see him fitting right in with the
- 3:33Speaker 1: Boston Celtics because what missou Labal is and protects the
- 3:37Speaker 1: paint still twenty thirty one, because of how.
- 3:40Speaker 2: Good Jason Tatum and jay leb.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Brown is and even as we've see it right now,
- 3:44Speaker 1: one of them can go down for a half of
- 3:45Speaker 1: the season or maybe the entire season, and they're still
- 3:47Speaker 1: good enough to be a playoff team. That means, if
- 3:50Speaker 1: you're the Boston Celtics, you probably feel okay with giving
- 3:52Speaker 1: this pick away because it's probably not gonna be valuable
- 3:54Speaker 1: because we don't expect the Jays to go anywhere between
- 3:56Speaker 1: now and twenty thirty one, unless you're arguing to yourself
- 3:59Speaker 1: that there's another trade that opens up sooner and you'd
- 4:02Speaker 1: want to keep this pick for that other trade. But
- 4:05Speaker 1: I don't know if that's going to exist because you
- 4:06Speaker 1: don't want to bring in another Max contract and mouse
- 4:08Speaker 1: Turner kind of fit in that what twenty seven million
- 4:11Speaker 1: dollar range.
- 4:11Speaker 2: So it's not a bad look a.
- 4:12Speaker 1: Deal from the Celtics perspective if they were being buyers
- 4:15Speaker 1: right now. And this is under the assumption that the
- 4:18Speaker 1: Bucks are trading away moles Turning because they traded away
- 4:20Speaker 1: Yanis and now they're trying to get the most value
- 4:22Speaker 1: out of the good players in their team. God Lee
- 4:25Speaker 1: bro stop I go to the website one time, what
- 4:28Speaker 1: is this Michael Porter Junior to the Bulls for Patrick
- 4:31Speaker 1: Williams Zach Collins in the first round pick this season,
- 4:34Speaker 1: top seven protected pass. I do think that's good value
- 4:39Speaker 1: for Michael Porter Junior to get like a really good
- 4:41Speaker 1: potentially first round pick. I mean, the only bryce side
- 4:44Speaker 1: for me is that we get off Patrick Williams's contract,
- 4:46Speaker 1: something I've been wanting to do for some time now,
- 4:49Speaker 1: but I don't. The Bulls should not be in the
- 4:51Speaker 1: place of buying right now. No way in hell they
- 4:53Speaker 1: should be buying, even if Michael Porter Junior is really
- 4:55Speaker 1: good and it could definitely help this offense.
- 4:57Speaker 2: No thank you, no thank you, no thank you.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Okay, Charlotte Hornet's LaMelo ball to the Clippers for John Collins, Bogdanovich,
- 5:08Speaker 1: Cam Christy in one first round pick that is top
- 5:10Speaker 1: three protected in twenty thirty. If Sam Presty has taught
- 5:13Speaker 1: us anything over the last decade or so, it's to
- 5:17Speaker 1: bet against the Clippers. So even though this pick ends
- 5:19Speaker 1: up being top three protected, because maybe that front office
- 5:21Speaker 1: has learned his lesson from all the swaps and unprotected
- 5:24Speaker 1: picks they gave away for Paul George, that could still
- 5:27Speaker 1: be a really, really good pick, because you know, we
- 5:31Speaker 1: do have this revolving door of potentially tradable point guards
- 5:34Speaker 1: between LaMelo, Trey Young, John Moran and so on and
- 5:38Speaker 1: so forth. A guy like LaMelo doesn't have a ton
- 5:41Speaker 1: of value. This feels like not good value for LaMelo,
- 5:44Speaker 1: but maybe it really is. Maybe this could be the
- 5:45Speaker 1: best off you can get. And really just baking on
- 5:48Speaker 1: this pick because the rest of these guys, I mean,
- 5:49Speaker 1: maybe you believe Cam Christy can be an NBA player
- 5:51Speaker 1: like a real one. John Collins will be off the
- 5:53Speaker 1: book soon, and then Bogdanovic's the same way. LaVar Ball
- 5:57Speaker 1: has said for whatever amount of time that we will
- 6:01Speaker 1: see LaMelo Ball playing in Los Angeles, and maybe this
- 6:03Speaker 1: is the route to do it. The Bulls trade is
- 6:05Speaker 1: Kobe White to the Minnesota Tembles for Rob Dillingham, Yon
- 6:08Speaker 1: baron Ja and Leonard Miller.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Dang, dude.
- 6:13Speaker 1: I made the video a little while ago about the
- 6:15Speaker 1: players in the draft that we wanted to be good
- 6:17Speaker 1: that haven't been good just yet, and Rob Dillingham was
- 6:19Speaker 1: one of those dudes. I just don't see. Go watch
- 6:21Speaker 1: the video. I talked a lot about Rob Dillingham for
- 6:23Speaker 1: the Bulls. Has been a while since we've had like
- 6:25Speaker 1: an intriguing young cinner. I mean, I guess since Wendelle Carter,
- 6:30Speaker 1: which feels like an eternity ago and I didn't watch
- 6:34Speaker 1: you on BEARINGE.
- 6:34Speaker 2: He just played his first g le game.
- 6:35Speaker 1: I saw he had a double double, but I didn't
- 6:37Speaker 1: watch those minis the only real opinion I have about
- 6:41Speaker 1: on barnje or film. I've seen of him as like
- 6:42Speaker 1: garbage time minutes some some this season and then the
- 6:46Speaker 1: Summer League where he blocked the gazelleon shots in his
- 6:49Speaker 1: first stemp at enough for us. This feels like really
- 6:53Speaker 1: good value for the Timblewolves. The problem with Kobe White
- 6:56Speaker 1: for them is that he's not a He's not a
- 6:58Speaker 1: point guard steel so he does do the things that
- 7:01Speaker 1: I think that the Minnesota Timbules need. I think they
- 7:03Speaker 1: need a floor setter. I think they need a guy
- 7:04Speaker 1: that can slow things down offensively when necessary, make the
- 7:08Speaker 1: right decision.
- 7:08Speaker 2: That's not who Kobe White is.
- 7:10Speaker 1: He is the true definition of a combo, but he
- 7:12Speaker 1: leans more shooting guard than point guard. And he is
- 7:15Speaker 1: obviously a talent upgrade from these dudes, at least as
- 7:18Speaker 1: of today. But I don't know if that's the right
- 7:20Speaker 1: fit for the Minnesota Timbles, but it might be the
- 7:23Speaker 1: best potential point guard that they could get given the assets.
- 7:26Speaker 2: Kobe White is not gonna be a valuable asset man.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Bulls fans, brace yourself if we do trade Kobe this season,
- 7:31Speaker 1: it won't be for a luxury of great things. He's
- 7:34Speaker 1: an expiring guy that may be wanting to get twenty
- 7:36Speaker 1: five to thirty million dollars this season as a lot.
- 7:40Speaker 1: So I'm prepared to have something like this. And with
- 7:43Speaker 1: that being said, I guess it's fine. I'm not really
- 7:47Speaker 1: interested in.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Dealing m though.
- 7:49Speaker 1: Then we get the Cleveland Cavaliers. Okay, this is just
- 7:51Speaker 1: kind of a nothing trade. Max Drew's for Brandon Clark.
- 7:54Speaker 1: All right, move on from that one. Every single Tradin
- 7:56Speaker 1: ain't gonna be worth talking about. Then we get Anthony
- 7:58Speaker 1: Davis to Atlanta Hawks. So they did the exact same
- 8:00Speaker 1: trade we just talked about this one.
- 8:02Speaker 2: So we move on? Is do we accept this? By
- 8:05Speaker 2: the way, do we accept this? I was expecting to
- 8:07Speaker 2: see a whole.
- 8:07Speaker 1: Different kind of Atlanta Hawks dre He went out of
- 8:09Speaker 1: left field, not winning. We copy and paste it anyway.
- 8:13Speaker 1: Denver Nuggets Dayron Holmes, Jalen Pikett and the second round
- 8:16Speaker 1: pick for Kaspar's yakas shown us and what world would
- 8:20Speaker 1: that he do this? Let me let me read up
- 8:22Speaker 1: on this, because there has to be something the Nuggets need.
- 8:24Speaker 1: Another ball handler the bench. Union needs more play making
- 8:27Speaker 1: in the Denver needs more protection in case Jamal Murray
- 8:31Speaker 1: lockhorns with an injury bug at any point problems. The
- 8:34Speaker 1: Nuggets are pretty drown assays looking for a woman in
- 8:38Speaker 1: camy This. Okay, this tells us why the Nuggets would
- 8:41Speaker 1: do it, But why would the Miami he say, yeah,
- 8:42Speaker 1: we just drafted this dude who less remind each other
- 8:46Speaker 1: that before the draft last.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Year he was projected very, very high.
- 8:49Speaker 1: He failed in the draft, and I know he's not
- 8:51Speaker 1: playing over there, but maybe they got him in the
- 8:53Speaker 1: back pocket. We don't develop him for a year and
- 8:54Speaker 1: then bring him out.
- 8:55Speaker 2: Into the rotation.
- 8:56Speaker 1: Why would they say yesterday because Dyron Holmes hasn't played yet,
- 9:00Speaker 1: He's been in the gsus in the g Jalen picktt
- 9:03Speaker 1: don't play much.
- 9:03Speaker 2: And then the second round pick for I would rather
- 9:05Speaker 2: just keep the spars. I can.
- 9:06Speaker 1: Let's keep the flyer on his spars. None of those
- 9:09Speaker 1: other dudes make me feel like anything. And then to
- 9:11Speaker 1: write up don't Mitch, you don't Mitch? Why the he
- 9:13Speaker 1: would do it?
- 9:14Speaker 2: Okay?
- 9:14Speaker 1: Wait? Wait, wait, which is the only reason why Miami
- 9:16Speaker 1: Mike constiad of moving on him? Already nuts, no pass ah.
- 9:20Speaker 1: So I just did an episode of small Ball Kennedy
- 9:22Speaker 1: tum go check that out. It should be up relatively
- 9:25Speaker 1: soon on YouTube. It's on Peacock right now. And I
- 9:29Speaker 1: was like, ooh, Trey Murphy the third if he is
- 9:30Speaker 1: gonna get traded, I want to see him to Detroit.
- 9:32Speaker 1: So let's see what they picked up. Tobias Harris, Ron
- 9:35Speaker 1: Holland twenty twenty seven first round pick in the twenty
- 9:37Speaker 1: thirty first mind pick unprotected for Trey Murphy and Sedik Bay. Okay,
- 9:42Speaker 1: that's two first round picks, one of them next season
- 9:44Speaker 1: top five protected. In theory, when you have the young
- 9:47Speaker 1: guys that you have right now in Detroit and then
- 9:50Speaker 1: you add in Trey Murphy, a twenty twenty seven first
- 9:52Speaker 1: round pick is in the twenties.
- 9:53Speaker 2: In theory, you never know what injury is gonna do.
- 9:55Speaker 2: But in theory, that's not a very valuable pick.
- 9:57Speaker 1: The real value may happen in this twenty thirty that
- 9:59Speaker 1: looks like it's completely I'm protective, but maybe you just
- 10:00Speaker 1: don't give.
- 10:01Speaker 2: A damn about that.
- 10:02Speaker 1: And then this is the thing I was saying about
- 10:04Speaker 1: the Pelicans, but specifically when I was more thinking about
- 10:07Speaker 1: it for the Lakers when there was a rumor about
- 10:08Speaker 1: Herb Jones that because of some of the contracts over
- 10:11Speaker 1: there with the Pelicans, you might be able to sneak
- 10:13Speaker 1: in and get Sade Bay, who I don't know, on
- 10:15Speaker 1: a really good team, may not is a true, true
- 10:17Speaker 1: rotation neal player, but at the end of the day,
- 10:18Speaker 1: he's overall depth and this his first year of being
- 10:20Speaker 1: back from a major injury, and he don't look awful.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Tobias Harris, Ron Holland. So that's kind of like three
- 10:26Speaker 1: first round picks because Ron Holland is in it. And
- 10:28Speaker 1: I know a lot of Pistons fans love Ron Holland,
- 10:30Speaker 1: so they may hang up the phone right here right now.
- 10:32Speaker 1: But I think that in the open Eastern Conference, a
- 10:34Speaker 1: guy like Trey Murphy and Sadie Bay, depending on what
- 10:37Speaker 1: you think about him, could help this team. And he
- 10:39Speaker 1: genuinely does fit as a shooter, as a spacer, as
- 10:43Speaker 1: a creator.
- 10:44Speaker 2: I like this trade.
- 10:45Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I know I'm also a big Ron Holland
- 10:47Speaker 1: guy too, but I do like this trade for the
- 10:50Speaker 1: Detroit Pistons. Maybe add maybe a top three protection on
- 10:52Speaker 1: twenty thirty, just to make sure that you don't give
- 10:54Speaker 1: up a top three pick just in case. But I'm
- 10:57Speaker 1: here for next to Golden State Warriors Jonathkamna Pods for
- 11:00Speaker 1: Miles Turner.
- 11:01Speaker 2: Oh see, that's the trade that I ain't thought about.
- 11:04Speaker 2: You know, all the Pods.
- 11:05Speaker 1: Trades like him to the Kings, him to Chicago. I
- 11:08Speaker 1: haven't thought about him to Milwaukee Miles Turner. Now that
- 11:12Speaker 1: full time five over there, man Seth Curry needs some help.
- 11:15Speaker 1: I know he ain't have some great plays down the
- 11:17Speaker 1: stretch last night, but almost a fifty piece against a
- 11:20Speaker 1: really ailing Blazer team and a loss, Miles Turner can help.
- 11:25Speaker 2: They've been lacking size since I don't know when I
- 11:29Speaker 2: like this trade. I like this trade.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Now if you are the Bucks, and again we're under
- 11:34Speaker 1: the assumption that yaas has also been traded in some
- 11:36Speaker 1: other trade. Would you rather have this take the flyer
- 11:39Speaker 1: on Comedian pods or would you rather have the Alanto
- 11:42Speaker 1: or what was that the Miles Turner trade? The Boston
- 11:44Speaker 1: Celtics trade that was signments and then a pick.
- 11:47Speaker 2: I think I might rather have this the Rockets. Uh
- 11:50Speaker 2: oh oh okay, why did.
- 11:54Speaker 1: They use a picture of these two dudes? All these
- 11:56Speaker 1: other pictures are like the people getting traded right cominga
- 11:58Speaker 1: is getting traded. All of these guys are the ones
- 12:01Speaker 1: getting moved. And then they get to the rockets and
- 12:04Speaker 1: the pictures not of anybody in the trade. I thought
- 12:07Speaker 1: they was about the tray Re Sheppard in the article
- 12:09Speaker 1: or other times in the arcle. Now instead it's Tarry
- 12:11Speaker 1: Easton Jay Sean Tate a first round pick to the
- 12:14Speaker 1: Boston Selves for Peyton Pritcher. Don't understand Pritchard, a twenty
- 12:19Speaker 1: seven year old son of high stakes experience in the resume. No,
- 12:23Speaker 1: I don't like that trade for either of the teams.
- 12:26Speaker 1: It's one of the rare like I don't see it
- 12:27Speaker 1: for either team. Next, we got the Indiana Pacers Jars Walker,
- 12:31Speaker 1: Ben Sheppard a second round pick for Daniel Gafford. Call
- 12:33Speaker 1: us to the league office right now. Call us the
- 12:36Speaker 1: league office right now. I don't think Daniel Gafford is
- 12:38Speaker 1: good enough to get you a first round pick. Maybe
- 12:40Speaker 1: it's a fake first, but regardless, I don't think he's
- 12:42Speaker 1: good enough to get you a first round pick. Jeris
- 12:43Speaker 1: Walker is a guy who's really a fan enough. He
- 12:45Speaker 1: hasn't progressed the way we wanted them to, but maybe
- 12:47Speaker 1: a change of senior as the way to do it.
- 12:49Speaker 1: And this is a low cost center instead of trying
- 12:51Speaker 1: to get a zubox or trying to get a turner,
- 12:53Speaker 1: or trying to get Oh, you're not gonna get turn
- 12:55Speaker 1: off your the pacers because that relationship is probably dead.
- 12:57Speaker 2: But trying to get another one of those centers.
- 12:59Speaker 1: But it's still get and you Gaff who showed us
- 13:01Speaker 1: he can be a real starter caliber player on a
- 13:03Speaker 1: really good team, as.
- 13:04Speaker 2: He was just in the finals just not too long ago.
- 13:06Speaker 2: And that there you go.
- 13:07Speaker 1: Now your center problem is done him and missed the block.
- 13:10Speaker 1: Jay Huff is your center rotation and you feel pretty
- 13:12Speaker 1: good about it.
- 13:13Speaker 2: I like this trade.
- 13:14Speaker 1: I think for both sides. Take the flyer on Jarris
- 13:16Speaker 1: for Daniel Gaffer. Get a second round pick via Utah
- 13:18Speaker 1: for next season. Utah probably not gonna be good next season,
- 13:20Speaker 1: so that might be the thirty third overall pick. You
- 13:22Speaker 1: can find some value there, not mad at it. Next,
- 13:25Speaker 1: you got the Clippers trading away James Hardening to the
- 13:28Speaker 1: Toronto Raptors. Okay, this is why I'm messing with this article,
- 13:31Speaker 1: not because I love the trades, but because I'm seeing
- 13:34Speaker 1: destinations for players that I haven't thought about. Every James
- 13:37Speaker 1: Harden think I've seen, it's like, oh, send them back
- 13:38Speaker 1: to Houston, oh with a Sun's wonder for jay La Green. No,
- 13:41Speaker 1: this like, man, send them up North, send them to
- 13:44Speaker 1: the six for RJ. Oj Abaji. Oh shit, ooh that.
- 13:49Speaker 2: That might be enough to make me say, no, we're
- 13:51Speaker 2: not trading Jamal shit.
- 13:52Speaker 1: And then twenty twenty six first round fifth tough I
- 13:55Speaker 1: protected if you're traded for James, who is an iron
- 13:57Speaker 1: man that does not miss the playoffs in this hypothetical
- 13:59Speaker 1: yard in the playoff teams, This like the nineteenth overall pick,
- 14:01Speaker 1: the twentieth overall pick RJ. Barrett O Tayabaji. That's so interesting.
- 14:08Speaker 1: I am a shed head him and the Clippers. Maybe
- 14:10Speaker 1: if they're trading James, that allow him to be more
- 14:12Speaker 1: of a part of the offense. Even though I love
- 14:14Speaker 1: that it's different, I think it might be just a
- 14:16Speaker 1: little bit too different to make it make sense. This
- 14:19Speaker 1: is the Toronto Raptors way of doing things, you know,
- 14:23Speaker 1: by low on all NBA player because right now James
- 14:25Speaker 1: Harden is still playing like an All NBA player, even
- 14:27Speaker 1: if the team is not getting wins. I don't think
- 14:29Speaker 1: you bring James Harden in midseason and the system shifts
- 14:32Speaker 1: directly to James hardenball. But he is a talent upgrade
- 14:35Speaker 1: from everything else on the team. As far as the
- 14:37Speaker 1: guard play goals, it's intriguing, but it also feels very
- 14:40Speaker 1: too chaoush, you know, So I'm gonna say no.
- 14:44Speaker 2: Next we got the.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Lakers trading don't connect maxically, but first round pick for
- 14:49Speaker 1: Herb Jones, I'm just not doing this. That twenty thirty
- 14:54Speaker 1: one first round pick was pretty valuable before Luca got
- 14:57Speaker 1: on the team, and now that Luca's here, it's like
- 15:00Speaker 1: Lucas here, you know, you know what I mean, Lucas
- 15:03Speaker 1: gonna make that playoffs every single season.
- 15:04Speaker 2: So that's a pass.
- 15:05Speaker 1: The Grizzlies Jahn Morant to the Miami Heat for Tyler
- 15:08Speaker 1: Herroll and Nikola Yovitch. This is what we've seen before.
- 15:11Speaker 2: And I also don't think that he's going to get
- 15:13Speaker 2: traded again. It's too much of the point guard play
- 15:15Speaker 2: going on. But if he did get traded, I can
- 15:17Speaker 2: definitely see the Miami.
- 15:18Speaker 1: He being a team that can convinced themselves or from
- 15:20Speaker 1: John Moran, it wasn't too long ago that he was
- 15:21Speaker 1: really good.
- 15:22Speaker 2: This season not so much.
- 15:24Speaker 1: But the only ironic part of it all is that
- 15:26Speaker 1: one of the reasons they fired Taylor Jenkins last season
- 15:29Speaker 1: was the offense that they incorporated, which is all movement,
- 15:32Speaker 1: no high screen and roll, and the Miami Heat are
- 15:34Speaker 1: now running the same offense.
- 15:35Speaker 2: So he got his coach fired.
- 15:37Speaker 1: Oh maybe not him, Okay, they fired their coach because
- 15:40Speaker 1: of the point guard play wasn't to what they needed
- 15:42Speaker 1: to be, because of the no screening roll. He's gonna
- 15:44Speaker 1: get traded to a team that's also not running screen
- 15:46Speaker 1: and rolls. I don't know, the Miami Heat, and to
- 15:49Speaker 1: the Zion sweepstakes under the assumps that you can trade
- 15:52Speaker 1: Terrose here, Pela Larson, and Simone Funtachio.
- 15:56Speaker 2: What the fuck? Hey, bro?
- 15:59Speaker 1: And this is value of Zion even though he has
- 16:03Speaker 1: not played a lot the season. He just came back
- 16:05Speaker 1: yesterday against the Bulls. If the value of Zion is
- 16:11Speaker 1: like one somewhat okay, interesting prospect and salary, Feller, sign
- 16:16Speaker 1: me up. You can have Zach Collins, you can have.
- 16:21Speaker 2: Whoever.
- 16:22Speaker 1: If this is the man it's not playing, Bro, that
- 16:23Speaker 1: trade is awful. And again I know that Zion is
- 16:26Speaker 1: not worried of six first round picks, but I want.
- 16:28Speaker 2: I want at least something.
- 16:30Speaker 1: How many ads can we get? That's not the Milwaukee
- 16:33Speaker 1: box card trading for Herb Jones. So this, I'm assuming
- 16:37Speaker 1: this is under the assumption that they go the opposite way.
- 16:39Speaker 1: So instead of trading away Giannis, they're now buyers and
- 16:41Speaker 1: it's Bobby Portals, it is Andre Jackson. It is a
- 16:44Speaker 1: twenty thirty one first round pick. A low key I'm
- 16:46Speaker 1: interested in this if I'm the Pelicans because I don't
- 16:48Speaker 1: think Herb Jones is gonna be good enough to make
- 16:50Speaker 1: gi honest be like, yeah, I'll signed that extension right now.
- 16:52Speaker 1: So Gianni's is probably going by twenty thirty one, and
- 16:55Speaker 1: I'm like, oh snap, I got a Milwaukee Bucks pick
- 16:58Speaker 1: post Giannis and twenty already one Saby up. Which is
- 17:01Speaker 1: a matter of where you think Herb Jones is the
- 17:03Speaker 1: player see a part of their real long term future.
- 17:05Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 17:06Speaker 2: Nobody knows.
- 17:07Speaker 1: Here's the Timberwles trade. It's just it's a different version
- 17:10Speaker 1: of the trade. It's Dante and Rob Dillingham this time. Nah,
- 17:13Speaker 1: you can keep Nante. We want Yon bearing jailf were
- 17:15Speaker 1: gonna trade Kobe White y'all, thank you the Pelicans, Eves
- 17:20Speaker 1: Missy Jordan Hawkins to Indiana for Jars Walker and two
- 17:23Speaker 1: second round picks. This is another US getting a center,
- 17:26Speaker 1: talking about the Indiana Pacers, but I don't think it's
- 17:29Speaker 1: good enough, you know what I mean. I think I
- 17:31Speaker 1: think the center that I need to acquire has to
- 17:32Speaker 1: be a level above at least what Eves Missy is,
- 17:35Speaker 1: So I'm gonna pass on that if I'm the Pacers
- 17:38Speaker 1: the New York mix.
- 17:38Speaker 2: Okay, here's the big Gianni's trade.
- 17:40Speaker 1: It's O Gianaobi, Josh Hart, Miles McBride, a Pacomb Dottie,
- 17:44Speaker 1: a first round pick that is top A protected via
- 17:47Speaker 1: Washington for this season. It is a twenty twenty eight swap,
- 17:51Speaker 1: a twenty thirty swap, a twenty thirty two swap, and
- 17:55Speaker 1: then for giannasynth the Nastas.
- 17:57Speaker 2: I hate this trade for multiple reasons.
- 18:00Speaker 1: The main reason is I'm not trading away Yannas for
- 18:03Speaker 1: one pick and then the idea of some swaps because
- 18:06Speaker 1: in theory these swaps never materialize. Now we never know
- 18:08Speaker 1: at the end of the day, right, I don't think
- 18:10Speaker 1: the Clippers when they traded for Paul George. They didn't
- 18:13Speaker 1: think that in twenty twenty six that that swap is
- 18:15Speaker 1: gonna be top five. But in theory, if you are
- 18:18Speaker 1: the Knicks and you're trading for Gianna's, you're good in
- 18:20Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight, you're good in twenty thirty, and you're
- 18:22Speaker 1: good in twenty thirty two. So that swap doesn't mean
- 18:25Speaker 1: anything to me because it'll probably just be my own
- 18:27Speaker 1: pick regardless. And from the next perspective, yeah, you're getting
- 18:29Speaker 1: in the talnele of Gianni's. But that's three real, real
- 18:32Speaker 1: rotational players, and it scares me a little bit when
- 18:36Speaker 1: you have to give up that and play like these
- 18:38Speaker 1: are not just real rotation. Those are two starters, two starters.
- 18:41Speaker 1: At this moment in time, I don't think this trade
- 18:43Speaker 1: is good. Just straight up, I don't think this trade
- 18:45Speaker 1: is good. So I'm gonna hard pass. This is only
- 18:48Speaker 1: under the assumption that Yanna says, trade me to New
- 18:50Speaker 1: York and I don't want to go anywhere else. That's
- 18:52Speaker 1: the only way this kind of makes sense. And even
- 18:54Speaker 1: in I'm still like, nah, okay, see Thunder, they're doing
- 18:57Speaker 1: so well.
- 18:58Speaker 2: There is no real trade for them.
- 18:59Speaker 1: But in this case, Uzmazan getting off to the nets
- 19:03Speaker 1: for Hayward Heigt Smith in two seconds. That's that's a
- 19:05Speaker 1: fine enough trade. Uzmaizang probably not gonna be on the
- 19:09Speaker 1: team next year anyway. Hayward Heigh Smith is not played.
- 19:12Speaker 1: I don't think he's played this season.
- 19:14Speaker 2: Let me lock in. Yeah, I'm right, he has not
- 19:15Speaker 2: played yet this season. But he is a good ball player.
- 19:18Speaker 1: He may not even play an ok see, but it's
- 19:20Speaker 1: better than this guy who definitely not playing an ok SEE.
- 19:23Speaker 2: So I don't know. It's fine, It's fine.
- 19:25Speaker 1: The Orlando Magic are acquiring Corey Kispert for John Isaac,
- 19:30Speaker 1: Jace Richardson and the two second round picks. I just
- 19:32Speaker 1: don't think that Corey Kisper provides I mean he provides shooting. Yes,
- 19:35Speaker 1: he provides shooting, which is something they desperately need. I
- 19:37Speaker 1: don't think his shooting is that much of a premium
- 19:40Speaker 1: that I would give up Jace Richardson person this season
- 19:42Speaker 1: is forty twenty minutes per game, and I can't act
- 19:45Speaker 1: like I am the biggest Washington Wizards fan and watched
- 19:48Speaker 1: every single game within the season. But something rubs me
- 19:51Speaker 1: the wrong way for a team that's really really bad,
- 19:53Speaker 1: and he's only playing twenty minutes per game on. So
- 19:56Speaker 1: I would just keep Jace richardson to hope that he
- 19:57Speaker 1: can continue.
- 19:58Speaker 2: To do some of the stuff. Gary McCain for Jalen
- 20:01Speaker 2: Wells and Gig Jackson. Oh see again, See this is
- 20:05Speaker 2: why I like these articles. This is not even something
- 20:07Speaker 2: I would ever thought about.
- 20:08Speaker 1: So how do we tackle this? The Sixers are in
- 20:11Speaker 1: a strange spot. They're still really interesting theoretically at least
- 20:15Speaker 1: and if they could ever get their core healthy at
- 20:17Speaker 1: the same time, but they also might be trying to
- 20:20Speaker 1: make it work with Joel and Paul George because of
- 20:23Speaker 1: their towering pay.
- 20:25Speaker 2: I just I think it's too left field for me.
- 20:28Speaker 2: I'm passing it's it made. It's intriguing enough. Jalen Green
- 20:33Speaker 2: for Zion, Nah, I just if you're the Pelicans again.
- 20:37Speaker 1: I'm just I know that eventually you do have to
- 20:40Speaker 1: wipe your hands of a player if it's not going
- 20:42Speaker 1: the way you wanted to go. I'm I'm fully understanding
- 20:45Speaker 1: of that, But some of the value trays that you're
- 20:48Speaker 1: getting for Zion will make me just say I would
- 20:51Speaker 1: just keep Zion on the team.
- 20:52Speaker 2: For now. You know what I mean. Pele Larson Simone
- 20:55Speaker 2: from techy On, Terry Rozier get out of here. I
- 20:57Speaker 2: would just keep Zion. It's not hurt, He's not. I
- 20:59Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know. I'm just saying no to that.
- 21:01Speaker 1: From the Sun's perspective, I think you call it to
- 21:03Speaker 1: the League office and hopefully the super upside.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Is Ion the Trailblazer's getting in on some trade. Murphy
- 21:09Speaker 2: School Henderson.
- 21:10Speaker 1: Okay, School Henderson and Jeremi Fears. I don't know how
- 21:13Speaker 1: I feel about that. Mattist Steibel, Chris Murray a twenty
- 21:16Speaker 1: twenty nine pick, top three protected. I don't think it's enough.
- 21:21Speaker 2: Pass next week.
- 21:23Speaker 1: Get the Sacramento Kings, Zack Leavin, Keon Ellis the Milwaukee Bucks.
- 21:26Speaker 2: So this is them, by and again in for.
- 21:28Speaker 1: Giannis, for Bobby Portis, Kyle Kuzma, Gary Harris, Cole Anthony
- 21:34Speaker 1: in that twenty thirty one pick. I will tell you
- 21:37Speaker 1: this right now, if the Sacramento Kings pulled off this trade,
- 21:40Speaker 1: I'm giving them an A in the trade. If this
- 21:43Speaker 1: trade we're called into the League office right now, I
- 21:45Speaker 1: will give them an A on the trade.
- 21:46Speaker 2: For multiple reasons. The first one is zach Lavine has.
- 21:51Speaker 1: To play out this season, but he also has a
- 21:52Speaker 1: player option for about fifty million dollars next year.
- 21:54Speaker 2: They said last year that zach.
- 21:56Speaker 1: Lavin's contract was on trade, but then the King's taken
- 21:58Speaker 1: on and now it feels like it might be untradable
- 22:00Speaker 1: because an extra year. Like I said earlier, with the
- 22:02Speaker 1: other trade, I forget, I forget what trade it was.
- 22:04Speaker 1: That twenty thirty one first round pick could be really valuable,
- 22:08Speaker 1: and the Kings just don't do trades like this very often. Yeah,
- 22:11Speaker 1: you gotta, you know, bring in Bobby Portis and Koozman
- 22:14Speaker 1: to mother players, and you're giving up Kean Ellis. But
- 22:17Speaker 1: this pick alone is enough for me to say yes
- 22:19Speaker 1: to all of this. This would be a good trade
- 22:21Speaker 1: for the Sacramento Kings, and I think a horrendous trade
- 22:23Speaker 1: for the Bucks unless zach Lavin said the honesty. The
- 22:27Speaker 1: only way y'all stay here is if you go get
- 22:28Speaker 1: zach Lavin, which will be crazy, but we've seen her
- 22:31Speaker 1: crazy things. The Spurs Jeremy Sohan to the Bucks for
- 22:36Speaker 1: Gary Harris a mere coffee in the first round pick swap.
- 22:40Speaker 1: We're gonna look past that. One that's just not even
- 22:42Speaker 1: enough to talk about Jacobe Walter to the Laker for
- 22:44Speaker 1: daunt connect. See.
- 22:46Speaker 2: That's another one is it's like, what am I supposed
- 22:47Speaker 2: to have an opinion.
- 22:48Speaker 1: About the eighth man or both rosters getting traded for
- 22:50Speaker 1: each other, and you Tah jazz Ooh, Walker Kessler Cody
- 22:55Speaker 1: Williams of the Pacers for Ben Matheran.
- 22:59Speaker 2: I do like the idea of Walker Castler in Indiana,
- 23:02Speaker 2: I'll say that much.
- 23:03Speaker 1: Cody Williams Man, Cody Cody Williams. I'm not even gonna
- 23:06Speaker 1: say what I'm thinking for Ben Mathron. So if Larry
- 23:09Speaker 1: Market has not been incorporated in any one of these
- 23:11Speaker 1: trades so far that we've saying so in this hypothetical Keante,
- 23:16Speaker 1: George Lowry Market and Ben Mathrin, I just don't know
- 23:18Speaker 1: if there's a lot of defense right there and then
- 23:20Speaker 1: center to be named later.
- 23:21Speaker 2: I mean, you got Filipowski and so on.
- 23:23Speaker 1: Both of these guys are gonna be like getting contracts
- 23:27Speaker 1: very soon. Who's gonna make the most who fits? Last
- 23:31Speaker 1: trade we have is CJ. McCollum to the Warriors for
- 23:33Speaker 1: John the kaminga buddy Heal in the second. This is
- 23:36Speaker 1: one of those trades that if you're the Wizards, you say, yeah,
- 23:38Speaker 1: we'll take the flyer on Kaminga. It ain't like our
- 23:41Speaker 1: some of our other wing prospects are turned into anything.
- 23:43Speaker 1: We'll take the fly on Kaminga.
- 23:44Speaker 2: And then dang for CZ McCollum, how far the mighty
- 23:48Speaker 2: have fallen.
- 23:48Speaker 1: If Cominga gets traded for old CZ McCollum, I woulds
- 23:51Speaker 1: have like just a handful of trades in this article.
- 23:54Speaker 1: I appreciate all of the Like I'm gonna say this,
- 23:57Speaker 1: and I've said it before, Making an article like this,
- 23:59Speaker 1: whether you like it or is really tough to do.
- 24:01Speaker 1: Making a trade that feels like it's in the best
- 24:03Speaker 1: interest of both teams, but doing that for thirty different teams,
- 24:06Speaker 1: it's really really tough. So I do appreciate the team
- 24:08Speaker 1: over there, Zach Buckley and company for again making us
- 24:11Speaker 1: think a little bit about the trades.
- 24:12Speaker 2: And we will see if any trade does happen in
- 24:15Speaker 2: the next week or two. But I cannot wait
