Latest / Kenny For Real / LUKA DONCIC TRADED TO THE LAKERS
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Quite literally, the craziest trade in NBA history just went down.
- 0:05Speaker 2: The crap. I still can't believe that it is true.
- 0:09Speaker 1: I still cannot believe that this is the reality that
- 0:11Speaker 1: we are living here right now, where the Dallas Mavericks
- 0:14Speaker 1: have Luke good God damn Donches and they traded for
- 0:17Speaker 1: Anthony Davis. Here's what Sham's just tweeted about twelve minutes ago.
- 0:21Speaker 1: And the reason I ain't hit record immediately because there's
- 0:23Speaker 1: no way this was real. In my mind, the Dallas
- 0:25Speaker 1: Maversis trade in Luca Doncis maxically but and Mark kiv
- 0:28Speaker 1: Moores to the Lakers for Anthony Davis Max Christian in
- 0:30Speaker 1: the twenty twenty nine first three team deal including Utah Boom.
- 0:33Speaker 2: He dropped that.
- 0:34Speaker 1: And the problem is, the problem is right now, since
- 0:37Speaker 1: Woldes went on to take the same bonaventual job, Sham
- 0:40Speaker 1: Sharanya is basically the only news breaker, the only news
- 0:45Speaker 1: breaker in the sport right now. You know, we got
- 0:47Speaker 1: some other guys out there that do it here there,
- 0:49Speaker 1: but Sham's is the big scoop guy. So in my
- 0:51Speaker 1: mind and everybody's mind, there has to be there has
- 0:55Speaker 1: to be Sham's getting hacked. I say, there's no way,
- 0:59Speaker 1: there's no way it's happening. This, this is sham's can hacked.
- 1:01Speaker 1: The reply say, can you check Instagram too? So I'm like, okay,
- 1:04Speaker 1: I've been hacked on Twitter before. I'm smart enough to
- 1:07Speaker 1: not have the same password to anything. This Sham's had
- 1:09Speaker 1: the same pass ord. In no way, the biggest news
- 1:11Speaker 1: breaker in all of our sport has the same password.
- 1:15Speaker 2: And then it happened.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Well, another guy that is in the know, Chris Hayes,
- 1:20Speaker 1: also tweeted sources. In a blockbuster move, Canton from the
- 1:25Speaker 1: Dallas Maveris of traded Luca Dantis to the Lakers for
- 1:27Speaker 1: Anthony Davis in the first round pick. Okay, again, this
- 1:33Speaker 1: is just breaking as of right now, and all I
- 1:37Speaker 1: can say, isn't it crazy that the rich get richer.
- 1:42Speaker 2: The Lakers.
- 1:45Speaker 1: The Lakers basically go from Magic and Kareem to the
- 1:50Speaker 1: Kobe Shack to Shack leaving and it's just Kobe by himself,
- 1:54Speaker 1: Kobe and Pale Kobe with the young kids of the
- 1:57Speaker 1: Jordan Clarkson, the Julius Randalls than they are bad for
- 2:00Speaker 1: three years and then Lebron comes to town and then
- 2:03Speaker 1: they use those little kids, the Julius Randus, the branded
- 2:07Speaker 1: Negros of the world.
- 2:07Speaker 2: To bring in Anthony Davis.
- 2:09Speaker 1: They get a twenty twenty championship, and now they get
- 2:11Speaker 1: Luka Doncic.
- 2:15Speaker 2: There's no context of this right now. There's no context
- 2:17Speaker 2: of this right now.
- 2:18Speaker 1: The only way this trade happens in my mind without
- 2:21Speaker 1: oh my god, without real like, without the context being
- 2:25Speaker 1: being out there right now. The only way this makes sense,
- 2:28Speaker 1: the only way this is happening is if Luka Doncic
- 2:32Speaker 1: himself walked into the office with Mark Cuban or whoever
- 2:35Speaker 1: the hell is in charge, and said, trade me to
- 2:38Speaker 1: the Lakers, no other place, because why do you have
- 2:42Speaker 1: a twenty what five year old? How old is Lukadanciz
- 2:45Speaker 1: He finally twenty five? You know they I was in
- 2:46Speaker 1: twenty five, twenty five, a twenty five year old superstar
- 2:50Speaker 1: Luka Dancis who just led his team to win the
- 2:53Speaker 1: Western Conference last year. There is a zero percent chance
- 2:57Speaker 1: you trade him right now unless that is a circuit census, right.
- 3:02Speaker 1: And if you are going to trade him, you may
- 3:04Speaker 1: get become somewha public right, so you get more than
- 3:07Speaker 1: an aging superstar and Anthy Davis's great don't get me wrong,
- 3:10Speaker 1: ideas of phenomenal basketball player, but a thirty plus year
- 3:12Speaker 1: old superstar and then one first round pick. If the
- 3:15Speaker 1: other twenty nine teams, my watch is buzzing because everybody
- 3:19Speaker 1: I'm getting text messala what yeah real? UNC. If you
- 3:26Speaker 1: let the other twenty nine teams know that he is available,
- 3:31Speaker 1: that Luca Donson is available, you get a king's ransom.
- 3:35Speaker 1: You remember what what not Anthony Davis Well, Kevin Urant
- 3:38Speaker 1: got traded for with the Sons. You get that plus
- 3:40Speaker 1: a little bit more. If the other teams in basketball
- 3:43Speaker 1: know that Luca Doncions is available, so he had to
- 3:47Speaker 1: he had to, he had to walk into the office
- 3:51Speaker 1: hit I want to be a Laker no other place,
- 3:54Speaker 1: And I'll question what the context is? This?
- 3:57Speaker 2: What player? And this is?
- 4:00Speaker 1: So this is also new, right, because there's always been
- 4:02Speaker 1: this narrative and I'm just spitball because I listen, I
- 4:05Speaker 1: was about to go to bed. I ain't gonna lie
- 4:06Speaker 1: to you. I'm in underwear right now. I don't think
- 4:09Speaker 1: you needed to know that that that bit of information.
- 4:12Speaker 1: But I didn't expect to come down here and record
- 4:14Speaker 1: a video.
- 4:16Speaker 2: Right.
- 4:17Speaker 1: There's always a narrative about the foreign born players, the Giannasist,
- 4:20Speaker 1: the Lucas, the Yolks of the world, being content and
- 4:25Speaker 1: wanted to ride out and being loyal to the franchise
- 4:27Speaker 1: that took a chance. In the Gianna's case who was
- 4:30Speaker 1: a one and thirty pounds seven foot or a Yokics
- 4:34Speaker 1: case who was drafted in the second round, you always
- 4:36Speaker 1: get that narrative They're going to be true to their team.
- 4:39Speaker 1: And I just kind of seen Luca donci as a
- 4:40Speaker 1: guy that will be a Dallas maverick for the rest
- 4:43Speaker 1: of his career. I guess that's kind of dead right.
- 4:47Speaker 1: And I'm I'm still refreshing to try to get any
- 4:50Speaker 1: other context from any other reporter here, and I don't
- 4:54Speaker 1: see any nobody knows at this moment in time.
- 4:58Speaker 2: So so oh.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Oh here, it is here, It is here, It is okay,
- 5:03Speaker 1: So this is tem McMahon. I believe that defense wins championships.
- 5:08Speaker 1: MAVs GM Nico Harrison told ESPN regarding this motivation to
- 5:14Speaker 1: trade Luca Dantis for Anthony Davis. I feel like I'm
- 5:17Speaker 1: in a fucking twilight zone and I did I not
- 5:21Speaker 1: make it. I believe that getting an all defensive center
- 5:26Speaker 1: and an all defensive player with the defensive all in
- 5:29Speaker 1: a player with the defensive mindset gives us a better
- 5:31Speaker 1: chance rebuilt to win now and in the future.
- 5:39Speaker 2: He had Luca Dacic, he had Lucadocic who went to
- 5:43Speaker 2: the finals. No, no way, no way, now and in
- 5:50Speaker 2: the future.
- 5:51Speaker 1: I got I gotta pause this video, re like I'm
- 5:54Speaker 1: losing I'm losing my mind. And look at my boy, Mike,
- 5:58Speaker 1: number one Leakers fan I know has never had to
- 6:01Speaker 1: see real struggle as a fan in his damn life.
- 6:05Speaker 1: And now he got Lebron and Luka Doncis on his team.
- 6:09Speaker 1: I'm envious as hell. I can't lie and I just okay.
- 6:15Speaker 1: Obviously Nico Harrison is smoking some of that stuff. Because
- 6:21Speaker 1: you were able, because you were able to again make
- 6:26Speaker 1: it to the finals and again if this is a
- 6:28Speaker 1: real quote from Tim and Tim is another one of
- 6:30Speaker 1: the notable guys out there. You were able and matter
- 6:33Speaker 1: of fact, let's let's do some research on the fly.
- 6:35Speaker 1: You were able last season, specifically in the second half
- 6:38Speaker 1: of the year, to have a top five defense around Lucadantis. Yes, granted,
- 6:43Speaker 1: Lukadanta is never gonna be a phenomenal defensive player, I
- 6:45Speaker 1: think he has some pros of him being like the
- 6:47Speaker 1: James Harder bild So he's a stock your guy. You
- 6:49Speaker 1: can't back him down. He should get effort here or there.
- 6:52Speaker 1: But you were able to build last year in your
- 6:54Speaker 1: title run, you were able to build a really good
- 6:56Speaker 1: defense around Luca Derek Lively.
- 7:00Speaker 2: I've just realizing.
- 7:01Speaker 1: So you all, oh, yeah, any days want to play
- 7:02Speaker 1: power for dammit, you got Derek Live and every days
- 7:04Speaker 1: playing together. But okay, hold on, hold on, because this
- 7:07Speaker 1: is blowing my mind.
- 7:11Speaker 2: Dallas last season.
- 7:12Speaker 1: I gotta look at post trade deadline because before the
- 7:15Speaker 1: trade that line, the defense wasn't very good. Did they
- 7:17Speaker 1: bring in PJ Washington and did they bring in that
- 7:19Speaker 1: you got for the things shift dramatically and Jason Kidds
- 7:22Speaker 1: era the twoth runs that they went on the Conference
- 7:24Speaker 1: finals run and then this NBA Finals run. Their defense
- 7:27Speaker 1: was one of the main reasons why they were able
- 7:28Speaker 1: to do that. Here are the stats. I'm doing this
- 7:31Speaker 1: all on the fly, no edits or anything, but like,
- 7:33Speaker 1: this is post trade deadline.
- 7:35Speaker 2: They have the seventh best defense. This is them right there.
- 7:36Speaker 2: This is the seventh best defense around Luca Dodgins.
- 7:39Speaker 1: So yes, Luca himself is never gonna help you raise
- 7:42Speaker 1: your defensive ceiling or raise your defensive floor.
- 7:44Speaker 2: But damn it, you got the people on the team
- 7:46Speaker 2: that can do that.
- 7:47Speaker 1: So now, okay, So Carrie Irving you the guy. It's
- 7:52Speaker 1: basically what it's saying to me, Kyrie Irving, you're the guy.
- 7:56Speaker 1: I honestly round of a fucking plow for Rob Polinka.
- 8:01Speaker 1: By the way, Ronald plaus Man, because I killed him.
- 8:07Speaker 1: I killed him like two months ago about not doing
- 8:10Speaker 1: this and not doing that. They just traded for lucadncis
- 8:13Speaker 1: and they still got the twenty thirty one first round pick.
- 8:16Speaker 1: There really needs to be a center in la I
- 8:20Speaker 1: know a center they can call up in Chicago. Shout
- 8:22Speaker 1: out to Big Boots. Now he gonna definitely not gonna
- 8:24Speaker 1: change the official ceiling. But moving forward. Oh oh, here's
- 8:28Speaker 1: here's more. Here's more.
- 8:30Speaker 2: Okay, so more things are coming out as we go.
- 8:31Speaker 2: So cool. This from Underdog. This is from Tim McMahon
- 8:34Speaker 2: as well.
- 8:34Speaker 1: MAVs had concerns moving forward with lucadncions due to his
- 8:37Speaker 1: conditioning issues looming commitment of super max extension.
- 8:41Speaker 2: This is so insane.
- 8:43Speaker 1: To me, Bro, This is the craziest day in NBA
- 8:49Speaker 1: recent NBA yestory, and we went through a Kevin Durant trade,
- 8:51Speaker 1: We went through a Paul George and Kawhi Leon trade.
- 8:56Speaker 1: At two o'clock in the morning, we went through to
- 8:57Speaker 1: Anthony Davis trade. But at least there was if I'm
- 9:00Speaker 1: right on the wall for some of those, Kevin de
- 9:02Speaker 1: Right requested the trade to the Suns. Anthony Davis requested
- 9:06Speaker 1: the trade to the Lakers. This is something that not
- 9:08Speaker 1: a single soul in existence had the inkling that the
- 9:12Speaker 1: Dallas Mavericks would think about trading Luca. And this makes
- 9:16Speaker 1: it even more crazy because arlnd videy'all said, the only
- 9:18Speaker 1: way you do this is if Luca Dodgs walking to
- 9:19Speaker 1: the offers himself. No, they did that without it. And
- 9:25Speaker 1: look here it is Mark Stein. Everything keeps breaking on
- 9:27Speaker 1: the fly. Luca Dontas did not request the trade. The
- 9:31Speaker 1: MAVs did this on their own accord, getting back Anthony Davis,
- 9:35Speaker 1: but only one future pick from the Lakers on twenty
- 9:37Speaker 1: twenty nine and the twenty.
- 9:38Speaker 2: Five year old. This is the craziest day.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Luca Dotts have been informed of the trade, I'm told,
- 9:46Speaker 1: which was agreed upon late Saturday and immediately ranks as
- 9:49Speaker 1: one of the most stunning trades.
- 9:51Speaker 2: Thunderbolts Man, this is insane, bro Luka.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Doncis is one of the three greatest players in the
- 9:59Speaker 1: league and he is currently he is currently just.
- 10:05Speaker 2: He currently just led a team to the finals.
- 10:07Speaker 1: I got, I gotta. I'm a pause again, I gotta,
- 10:09Speaker 1: I gott I'll be back. This is one of those trades,
- 10:11Speaker 1: by the way, that we don't need to be talking about,
- 10:13Speaker 1: like exison o's and and fits and.
- 10:16Speaker 2: No no no, no, no, no, no no, that's a that's a.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Video for two days from now. Forget all of that
- 10:21Speaker 1: to this is a trade of just like, oh my god,
- 10:23Speaker 1: what in the world is happening? And you know, and
- 10:26Speaker 1: you know where I want to go next? What is
- 10:29Speaker 1: happening in Dallas Mavericks Twitter? I know what Lakers Twitter
- 10:32Speaker 1: is like, shout out to Anthony Davis, thank you for
- 10:34Speaker 1: the twenty twenty championship. But this this not only helps
- 10:37Speaker 1: them right now, I mean I still look at this
- 10:39Speaker 1: Lakers team like, this's not going to championship. But you
- 10:41Speaker 1: have Luca Doncis, who is a twenty five year old
- 10:43Speaker 1: supers duperstar for the next ten years. So Laker Nation
- 10:48Speaker 1: is just set. Though they love Anthony Davis and love
- 10:51Speaker 1: all that he gave to this team over the last
- 10:53Speaker 1: five years. I think major ninety seven percent of the
- 10:56Speaker 1: Lakers fans is like, yes, we're here, right on the
- 10:59Speaker 1: mass side of things. This is where things get really interesting.
- 11:03Speaker 1: So I gotta go on there their subridit or something.
- 11:06Speaker 1: So this is their reaction to the tweet that we
- 11:08Speaker 1: were talking about defense. And again, this is blowing my
- 11:11Speaker 1: mind by the way. I feel like I'm in a nightmare.
- 11:14Speaker 1: One of the dumbest moments in sports history. This guy's
- 11:17Speaker 1: a full blown moron. The Dallas Cowboys aren't. Aren't now
- 11:21Speaker 1: the worst ran team in town? What a stupid a hole. Now,
- 11:25Speaker 1: PJ are defensive, Our best defensive player moves to the bench. Yeah,
- 11:28Speaker 1: that was the thing I was thinking about as well,
- 11:30Speaker 1: because obviously Anthony Davis been crying for a center for
- 11:32Speaker 1: one hundred years.
- 11:33Speaker 2: Damn.
- 11:33Speaker 1: He just went to Shan's last week and said, I
- 11:35Speaker 1: love you Lake of Nation, give me a center, they said.
- 11:38Speaker 1: So the potential starting lineup, obviously the more important ones
- 11:44Speaker 1: is Kai.
- 11:47Speaker 2: Yeah, PJS go to the bench. PJ running three is
- 11:50Speaker 2: just a little bit, a little bit iffy to me, man,
- 11:54Speaker 2: this is crazy. This is crazy.
- 11:58Speaker 1: This might be the dumbest trade of our lives. And
- 12:04Speaker 1: that makes it feel like I'm selling Anthony Davis short.
- 12:06Speaker 1: He is phenomenal, but he's also thirty at thirty two.
- 12:10Speaker 1: Now it is Anthony Davis thirty two years old. Anthony
- 12:13Speaker 1: Davis is thirty one. He'll be thirty two next month,
- 12:16Speaker 1: he'll be thirty two years old.
- 12:23Speaker 2: Oh my god, Oh my god.
- 12:25Speaker 1: At least it's not I'm not rooted for this team.
- 12:31Speaker 1: At least I'm not one of the ones rooted for
- 12:32Speaker 1: this team. The number one upvoted thing is if this
- 12:35Speaker 1: is real, I'm done disfranchise. It was twenty minutes ago
- 12:38Speaker 1: before it was confirmed real. And I just I see
- 12:42Speaker 1: some people on Twitter that I like in Maverick's Twitter.
- 12:45Speaker 1: They are live on Twitter right now. Shout out to
- 12:47Speaker 1: Jason Gallagher. He's got seven thousand people in there. I
- 12:50Speaker 1: got to tune in one second. I just keep thinking
- 12:52Speaker 1: about everything, nigga and I may have to make another
- 12:55Speaker 1: video and like when I wake up in the morning after.
- 12:59Speaker 2: I dream about this.
- 13:02Speaker 1: But this is one of the organizations that literally won
- 13:05Speaker 1: a championship with the number one guy on their team
- 13:07Speaker 1: not being an amazing defensive player. Like it has happened
- 13:11Speaker 1: and it will happen again, Right, it will happen again.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Though defense does win championships. That I don't think that
- 13:16Speaker 1: translates to your number one guy has to be defensive oriented, right,
- 13:21Speaker 1: And maybe this is not a one to one because
- 13:23Speaker 1: this guy also had I mean, maybe it's closer to
- 13:26Speaker 1: one to one. Like Steph Curry's never been a great defender,
- 13:28Speaker 1: believe it or not. He's been average at best. He's
- 13:30Speaker 1: a smaller guy. He works hard, but they were able
- 13:33Speaker 1: to go get Klay Thompson at the peak of his palace,
- 13:35Speaker 1: is a great defensive player, Draymon Green at the defensive
- 13:37Speaker 1: Player of the Year, Iggy off the bit like they've
- 13:39Speaker 1: always been able to build defensive infrastructure around an average
- 13:43Speaker 1: to subpart defender.
- 13:44Speaker 2: You cannot convince me that could have been the recipe.
- 13:47Speaker 2: Damn it, that was the recipe that you did at
- 13:49Speaker 2: the deadline last year. Oh man, all right.
- 13:53Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just waiting for more reports to come out.
- 13:58Speaker 1: It seems like the whole league is surprised.
- 14:01Speaker 2: CJ.
- 14:01Speaker 1: McCollum is tweeting about it. We're about to see Lebron
- 14:05Speaker 1: James and Anthony Davis on the same team. Shout out
- 14:09Speaker 1: to Rob Polinka because again, not only did he trade
- 14:13Speaker 1: for Luka Doncis for now, he's traded for Luka Doncis
- 14:16Speaker 1: for the next ten seasons. And though we can't agree
- 14:20Speaker 1: that Luka Doncas does come into seasons out of shape,
- 14:23Speaker 1: the man has been a walking thirty twelve for three
- 14:27Speaker 1: straight years. He's been an All Star since his sophomore season.
- 14:32Speaker 1: He's been an All NBA player every year outside of
- 14:34Speaker 1: his rookie season that he has been healthy, and he's
- 14:37Speaker 1: traded that for Anthony Damn bro.
- 14:41Speaker 2: I just
- 14:43Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, man, Laker Nation again, y'all know, no hardship, brother,
- 14:48Speaker 1: you always got something going on.
