1
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: What is up, fella, sickos.

2
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 2: I am Dana Valley coming at you with more Jansen

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:15,800
of the NBA Podcast, fame of Yahoo Sports, fame of HBO,

4
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,640
Max Fame, and of course OnlyFans Celeverty.

5
00:00:18,679 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 1: We are here to talk about Trey Young being.

6
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,519
Speaker 2: Traded to the Washington Wizards, as well as lupin our

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,719
trade deadline primer for both the Hawks and the Wizards.

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,280
We already recorded it for each team. We got about

9
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,479
an hour and a half of content between them that

10
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,079
just got absolutely dusted because as I was editing it,

11
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,159
the Trey Young trade went through. So you can consider

12
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,000
this your Trey Young trade reaction Hawks and Wizards fans

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,200
and general NBA fans, as well as the Hawks and

14
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,920
Wizards trade deadline primer, because we will be going through

15
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,840
every team on this channel. Trey Young was traded to

16
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:55,560
the Washington Wizards for CJ McCollum, Corey Kisspert, and zero

17
00:00:56,479 --> 00:00:57,119
draft picks.

18
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: That's the thing everyone's talking about.

19
00:00:58,719 --> 00:01:01,039
Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of I've seen a lot of

20
00:01:01,039 --> 00:01:03,399
people say I can't, I'm in the minority, but I

21
00:01:03,399 --> 00:01:05,640
really like this for Atlanta and those people feel like

22
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,040
they're in the majority at this point. More which team

23
00:01:10,159 --> 00:01:11,799
we want to start with the Wizards to break this

24
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,120
down from from there end. How did you feel about

25
00:01:14,159 --> 00:01:18,239
this from their perspective? Well, I guess first and foremost,

26
00:01:18,239 --> 00:01:19,799
how the heck are you doing? As I skip back,

27
00:01:20,239 --> 00:01:24,239
I'm doing well. I'm doing well. Thank you so much. Look,

28
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,480
I actually gave both of them a B grade. I

29
00:01:28,519 --> 00:01:31,000
think I gave Was it the Hawks that I gave

30
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,239
a B plus? I actually don't remember who I gave

31
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,959
a B plus? It was sorry close, Like, I don't

32
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,200
think I have a winner or a loser in this one.

33
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,359
You and I and I'm gonna I'm gonna reference a

34
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,280
ton of what we talked about yesterday on the podcast

35
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,000
that got dumped, because this is going to be brand

36
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,280
new information for people listening in. But what I said

37
00:01:51,359 --> 00:01:56,719
in that podcast was there is really nothing in terms

38
00:01:56,799 --> 00:01:59,280
of like Washington taking on this contract that bothers me,

39
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:02,640
because they should still have just oodles of cap space.

40
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,879
They can go in and try to extent Tray to

41
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,159
a point where he just doesn't pick up the player

42
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:12,759
option and in set signs for a specific amount. The

43
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:16,599
number I felt comfortable with was four years, one forty,

44
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,360
with the potential moving up to four years, one fifty.

45
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,759
Speaker 1: With them declining the player option, with him declining. Yeah,

46
00:02:23,759 --> 00:02:27,280
with him declining the player option as part of that negotiation. Absolutely,

47
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,759
So I think that could be in the cards. And

48
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,360
I'm saying that without knowing for sure, but like that

49
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,280
wouldn't surprise me. And if that happens, they should still

50
00:02:39,319 --> 00:02:43,560
have I think you actually made the calculations. They should

51
00:02:43,599 --> 00:02:46,639
still have close to sixty million in cap space.

52
00:02:46,439 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 2: Right forty So the actual it turned out it was

53
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,240
like I think Bobby Marshad was forty five point nine,

54
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,759
So they're still working with more than forty million in

55
00:02:53,759 --> 00:02:56,879
cap space. And it's funny because the podcasts that no

56
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,759
one will ever hear, we both kind of talked ourselves

57
00:02:59,759 --> 00:03:01,639
not out of it for the Wizards, but we were

58
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,319
sort of done with the whole Oh this is fine.

59
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,680
I kind of I think maybe I saw it. Maybe

60
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,919
I'm just inherently contrarian now. I think I saw too

61
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,360
many people saying I really love this for the Hawks

62
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,199
with the Wizards doing and I get the risk involved,

63
00:03:14,199 --> 00:03:15,879
and we'll get into the Trey Young fit of it all.

64
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,240
But when you're focusing on the finances like you were,

65
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,199
I operated under the assumption that they were going to

66
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,159
save Intlanta more money as part of this deal, because

67
00:03:24,199 --> 00:03:28,879
you had other avenues of CJ. McCullum plus AJ Johnson

68
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,680
maybe plus another smaller contract. We've got more teams involved

69
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,599
to keep in Lanta further away from the tax than

70
00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:34,960
they currently are now.

71
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,439
Speaker 1: Getting off Kisspert, who's.

72
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,199
Speaker 2: A useful player, but I don't feel any which way

73
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,800
about his contract, Like paying him around fourteen million a

74
00:03:41,879 --> 00:03:46,159
year is probably market value, maybe a slight overpay, it's

75
00:03:46,199 --> 00:03:48,840
definitely not a bargain. And so he has another two

76
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,280
years and it's about twenty seven million left on his

77
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,639
deal after this one, with a club option for the

78
00:03:55,319 --> 00:03:57,719
third year following that. To get off that deal in

79
00:03:57,759 --> 00:04:01,240
the process, the way that the NBA's CBA now works,

80
00:04:01,719 --> 00:04:04,240
you need to get to the salary floor before the season,

81
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,759
and so it was just you were never gonna just

82
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,080
one hundred million dollars in cap space. We're gonna save

83
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,639
sixty of it for the regular season. And so even

84
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,280
if Trey picks up his player option and you just

85
00:04:14,319 --> 00:04:17,319
have this forty nine to fifty million dollar number, that's

86
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,199
like and that's what their cap space is based off

87
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,560
of the number that you mentioned if they sign him

88
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,480
to an extension, their cap space then goes through the

89
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,040
roof if he's declining his player option as part of that.

90
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,160
So I don't really think this took anything, especially while

91
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,439
getting the kiss Pert deal off the table and the

92
00:04:32,879 --> 00:04:34,560
final point I want to make before getting into the

93
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:35,160
actual fit.

94
00:04:35,879 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna.

95
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 2: See this fit until next season. And I think a

96
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,560
lot of people were worried. You know, the Wizards have

97
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,600
been a little friskier of late. Could they convey that

98
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,319
top a protected pick? I can't guarantee you even if

99
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,680
Trey Young plays in every single game once he makes

100
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,279
his debut moving forward, the Wizard's front office is not

101
00:04:53,319 --> 00:04:55,639
gonna let that happen. This front office has been way

102
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,800
too smart with every step that they've made, which is

103
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,399
maybe also why I'm inclined to be SMI okay with

104
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,120
this trade for them, But I think they're gonna give him.

105
00:05:04,199 --> 00:05:06,839
David Aldridge called it the brandon Ingram treatment to where

106
00:05:06,879 --> 00:05:09,439
he got traded to the Raptors. They I don't think.

107
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:11,439
I don't think he'll extend right away. Maybe who does,

108
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,720
who knows? But he got traded to Toronto Raptors and

109
00:05:14,759 --> 00:05:17,199
then they just shut him down basically for the season.

110
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:18,839
They could do the same thing with Trey Young if

111
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,439
they're worried about him making them better, and so just

112
00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:24,800
knowing that the Wizards will do whatever to keep their

113
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,800
pick despite having acquired Trey Young, I'm more comfortable with

114
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,160
the idea behind the move now than I was, Like,

115
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,319
what was that eighteen hours ago whenever we.

116
00:05:34,199 --> 00:05:39,399
Speaker 1: Recorded, right, Yeah, I mean, look, I just generally am

117
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:41,480
not a posed to this thing because it was something

118
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,000
that we talked about yesterday as well.

119
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: See, we're going to reference that pod, the Lost podcast.

120
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,079
We just want everyone to know that we were working still.

121
00:05:50,199 --> 00:05:51,959
That wasn't a day off for us.

122
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:57,759
Speaker 1: Right, But something that I said which you surprisingly agreed with,

123
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,800
because I actually think I said something clever for ones.

124
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,040
I'm prepared to disagree now though, if it's any great

125
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,639
great So I basically said that we as human beings

126
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,680
are far more open minded to changing our behavior when

127
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,759
we landed a new job, for example, So like if

128
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,639
the if the communication from the side of the Washington

129
00:06:19,439 --> 00:06:23,040
and Trey Young arrives is, hey, look, we love having

130
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,240
you here. Let's try to work together to find a

131
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,160
way where we can optimize your potential, and they actually

132
00:06:30,199 --> 00:06:32,800
have him leaning into more off ball stuff and like

133
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,600
integrating himself into the offense in a way that he

134
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,120
didn't do in Atlanta. That might be it like, that

135
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,800
might be something that could be looked at realistically. It

136
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,439
really comes down to Trey Young. And while I do

137
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,879
know that he's not necessarily someone who's adored within the

138
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,800
confines of a locker room, I don't think he's like

139
00:06:52,519 --> 00:06:55,399
a cancer or anything. You know how we used to

140
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,279
label players that way. I was like, I don't. I

141
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:01,360
don't consider him of that ilk someone who comes in

142
00:07:01,399 --> 00:07:04,639
and just rubs everyone the wrong way and it just

143
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,240
needs to go away. I don't think that's the case

144
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,240
in Atlanta. I think it was more of an It

145
00:07:11,279 --> 00:07:15,600
was a salary situation, it was a fit situation. I

146
00:07:15,639 --> 00:07:18,399
don't necessarily they all went around thought, look like he

147
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,040
didn't have value as a player or as a human being.

148
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,439
So now this is an opportunity for him to also

149
00:07:25,519 --> 00:07:27,920
shit that and come into a new situation say look,

150
00:07:27,959 --> 00:07:30,199
I'm here to play ball more.

151
00:07:30,279 --> 00:07:31,759
Speaker 2: I think we have in the comments people saying they

152
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,480
can't hear you. So if you want to boost your

153
00:07:33,519 --> 00:07:36,480
mic a little bit, if that's to me, I am

154
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,240
dan he is more. You can get us in the

155
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,800
comments and say you can't hear him, But I do

156
00:07:39,879 --> 00:07:43,319
agree with the behavioral changes. You said that it's probably easier.

157
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,600
I kind of thought maybe bringing in Quinn Schneider would

158
00:07:47,639 --> 00:07:49,759
have done that in Atlanta, like you changed the coach,

159
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,839
and maybe that has Trade doing more off the ball,

160
00:07:51,879 --> 00:07:55,519
setting more screens. And we did see a little of that,

161
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,240
like last year the numbers. He set more off ball

162
00:07:58,279 --> 00:08:01,040
screens than we've ever seen from him. That's great, but

163
00:08:01,079 --> 00:08:04,879
we need to see him materially change that behavior even more.

164
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: I'm very curious.

165
00:08:06,399 --> 00:08:08,399
Speaker 2: I think you mentioned you were concerned about how do

166
00:08:08,439 --> 00:08:14,360
we get Alex sar the ball more and easier advantageous positions.

167
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,600
He's done a heck of a job of scoring this year,

168
00:08:16,639 --> 00:08:18,879
I think overall, but I'm absolutely in agreement with you

169
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,000
that Trey is going to make his job easier. Since

170
00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:25,920
entering the league, Trey leads the entire NBA in an

171
00:08:25,959 --> 00:08:28,560
assists thrown at the rim, and only Luka Doncic has

172
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,559
thrown more corner three point assists. That absolutely matters, and

173
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,519
what I think it really comes down to, so that

174
00:08:34,639 --> 00:08:37,240
element I think is going to help even for someone

175
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,480
like a Trey Johnson. We've seen him do a bunch

176
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:41,879
of things away from the ball. Keishawn George. I've been

177
00:08:41,879 --> 00:08:44,399
when he's been healthy, the playmaking, I've been really intrigued

178
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,399
by what he could do. But he can do things

179
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,159
away from the ball. I think what's interesting is that

180
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,200
Washington doesn't have anybody that you should be overly concerned

181
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,200
about displacing from the ball. But that doesn't mean that

182
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,799
you want Trey Young on the ball for seventeen to

183
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,399
twenty one seconds of the shot clock. And that's what

184
00:09:02,399 --> 00:09:04,159
I'm gonna be interested to see is not even how

185
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,440
much is Trey Young moving off the ball, but how

186
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,720
long are his touches lasting, how long are they getting in?

187
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,840
Is he getting them into their half court actions? I

188
00:09:10,879 --> 00:09:14,559
think he tried at different points to do that in Atlanta.

189
00:09:14,639 --> 00:09:16,639
But this needs to be more of a if this

190
00:09:16,799 --> 00:09:18,759
is going to work, if they view this as more

191
00:09:18,799 --> 00:09:22,080
of a we're trying to rehabilitate his value, maybe sign

192
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,799
him to a cheaper deal or use him as this

193
00:09:23,919 --> 00:09:26,600
large expiring contract next year. If this is going to

194
00:09:26,639 --> 00:09:28,639
be more than a fly by night stop for him,

195
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,480
this needs to be it. And I think, just to

196
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,240
build on your point about it changing scenery, I wonder

197
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:39,080
if the context of how he's changing scenery ends up

198
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,519
mattering to him, because if you think about the report

199
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,840
came out that Tray Young prefers to end up with

200
00:09:44,879 --> 00:09:48,120
the Wizards, and my first response was, yeah, no shit,

201
00:09:49,039 --> 00:09:51,080
who else is in the Tray Young bidding right now?

202
00:09:51,159 --> 00:09:53,159
Speaker 1: Like, what is the other team he would prefer?

203
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 2: And so maybe that is because it would serve as

204
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,600
a reality check to all of us if all of

205
00:09:57,639 --> 00:10:00,480
a sudden we had an audience of one for this

206
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,320
podcast when we're publishing episodes, And so I'm wondering if

207
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,879
that maybe is a catalyst for him actually changing. But

208
00:10:07,399 --> 00:10:12,159
I'm I'm intrigued, even if morbidly so, about how this

209
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:13,320
is going to work on the court.

210
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,399
Speaker 1: But I am doubting more and more that we're.

211
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 2: Gonna even see the chance for it to work on

212
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,679
the court this season, at least extensively.

213
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:25,039
Speaker 1: Yes, uh, hopefully we will just see a smitch of it,

214
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,679
But I agree with you that it's going to be

215
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:28,919
going through a training camp and then it's the start

216
00:10:28,919 --> 00:10:30,600
of next season. By the way, I hope my mic

217
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,039
is fixed because I can't turn it up anymore. So

218
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:38,480
here's hoping, here's hoping. But yes, that would be I

219
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,240
do think the Wizards would love to at least see him,

220
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,000
because otherwise you're stepping into a situation where he could

221
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,039
turn down the player option and just leave out, right, Well,

222
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,320
so and then so what yeah, yeah, no, sure, perhaps

223
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,919
you're probably you're I mean, you're still training for him

224
00:10:53,919 --> 00:10:57,080
because you want to see him on the floor, I presume, right.

225
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, But it's I mean, at the end of the day,

226
00:11:00,039 --> 00:11:01,960
unless you thought CJ. McComb was gonna come back, or

227
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,639
you were you really thought Corey Kisbert was gonna get right, Balue,

228
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,799
what you've done if Trey Young leaves is actually increase

229
00:11:07,879 --> 00:11:10,759
your projected cap space from where it was before the trade.

230
00:11:10,519 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I mean there's no downside, is what you're saying,

231
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,480
And and I agree with that, But like I had

232
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,039
to assume the Wizards are hoping that Trey Young is

233
00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:21,440
you know, going to be an active player for them,

234
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,279
and it's going to be an on cord acid right right,

235
00:11:25,399 --> 00:11:27,960
I still think the most likely path forward is an

236
00:11:28,039 --> 00:11:32,799
extension where it's is it is it fair to say

237
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,960
significantly below when it's like, you know, forty five billion

238
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,120
a year. Is that significantly below what he's learning now?

239
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:40,320
And now you're muted.

240
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 2: I guess my question would be, if you're not gonna

241
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,399
give him a chance to like fit in within the

242
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,000
larger context of a team this year at least, I'm

243
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,639
gonna be shocked if I said, let's set the over

244
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,279
under right now, because they have We're like almost halfway

245
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,159
through the season over under of Trey Young playing in

246
00:11:58,279 --> 00:12:01,039
twenty one games for the Wizards.

247
00:12:01,799 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: That was very specific for a real number. So that

248
00:12:09,159 --> 00:12:10,919
means that he will have to end the year like

249
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:16,320
playing roughly thirty games total. That's and he's got a

250
00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:19,440
quad issue, well quad issue.

251
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,919
Speaker 2: He's coming back the MCL thing, that's real, and that

252
00:12:22,919 --> 00:12:24,360
that's a truth enturry to come back from.

253
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, so all right, no, screwge, I'm gonna give you

254
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:30,039
this one under.

255
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 2: Right, And so how do you give I know the

256
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,679
Raptors did it with Brandon Ingram, but this feels even

257
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,000
more like a tenuous situation because we kind of knew

258
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,039
the Raptors were attempting to be a relevant team in

259
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,559
the East next year. We don't know that that's the

260
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,600
mandate in Washington. And if you don't see, if you

261
00:12:47,639 --> 00:12:51,120
see Trey play fewer than twenty, fewer than fifteen games

262
00:12:51,159 --> 00:12:54,799
with the bulk of this young core, would you prefer,

263
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,360
as the Wizards to have him on an extension at

264
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,440
that lower number or just kind of go into next

265
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,759
season with him? Is this massive expiring contract and if

266
00:13:02,759 --> 00:13:05,399
it pans out, then you worry about paying him or

267
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,200
his or his free agency.

268
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: M So I don't actually feel strongly either way, Like

269
00:13:14,759 --> 00:13:16,759
I don't think there's one of these options that I

270
00:13:16,759 --> 00:13:19,519
think is like notably more attractive than the other. Because

271
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,759
when you have Tray Young and what we were talking

272
00:13:21,759 --> 00:13:25,600
about is forty five million flat on that deal, I

273
00:13:25,639 --> 00:13:28,360
think that's tradable, Like it's still Tray Young. I think

274
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,639
I think we've leaned a little too heavy on the

275
00:13:31,639 --> 00:13:35,039
weaknesses of what he is as a player, and or

276
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,559
I have reached that point where we're sort of ignoring

277
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,840
what he does give you after all. So, so like

278
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,159
Trey Young on forty five million a year, if that's

279
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,440
the number, because that was the number I was comfortable with,

280
00:13:47,799 --> 00:13:50,759
I would I would feel better about that because then

281
00:13:50,799 --> 00:13:52,519
I know what I have coming, I know I can

282
00:13:52,519 --> 00:13:55,320
set up my cap around that I know what type

283
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,120
of money is coming in, I can better plan ahead.

284
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,559
I like I I wouldn't hate that opportunity. But to

285
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,879
your point, coming in and you know, playing around with

286
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,639
a almost fifty million dollar expiring contract, that could be fun.

287
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:11,759
You can break it into smaller pieces. You could do

288
00:14:11,799 --> 00:14:15,440
a bunch of fun stuff with that. That's the question. However,

289
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,919
when is the last time we've seen, you know, a

290
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,759
lot of examples of players earning that amount of dollars

291
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,360
being actually used as an expiring contract and where the

292
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,919
team trading away has gotten good assets. Right, I have

293
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:31,360
no idea.

294
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,879
Speaker 2: It's the same thing when it says cap space can

295
00:14:33,919 --> 00:14:37,039
be used to facilitate trades, and yes they can when

296
00:14:37,039 --> 00:14:39,440
you're taking on salary that's being dumped. But it's never

297
00:14:39,879 --> 00:14:41,559
look at all a cap space the Nets have they're

298
00:14:41,559 --> 00:14:42,799
able to get Yannis and.

299
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:44,399
Speaker 1: Return.

300
00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 2: So yeah, you're you're right, and you know, functionally speaking,

301
00:14:48,399 --> 00:14:51,159
Trey Young was almost treated as an expiring contract here,

302
00:14:51,159 --> 00:14:53,279
at least by the Hawks. And maybe they view getting

303
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,120
kiss Burt as part of the value, but no, he wasn't.

304
00:14:56,279 --> 00:14:59,639
Yeah that's incorrect, because they they seemed based on the

305
00:14:59,639 --> 00:15:02,399
offer they accepted terrified that he was going to pick

306
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,799
up his player option. That's my just didn't read on

307
00:15:04,919 --> 00:15:08,799
this situation. I if I'm Washington, I need to see

308
00:15:08,879 --> 00:15:11,679
him play. And that's the That's the push and pull

309
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,360
here is that you don't want to put your draft

310
00:15:13,399 --> 00:15:16,639
pick in jeopardy. But it's not like the Hawks, who

311
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,360
have a better second best player than the Wizards have

312
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,559
as a best player, if you remove Trey Young, Jalen

313
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,600
Johnson's better than anyone on the Wizards right now. So

314
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,360
if you have Trey Young, you could probably still like

315
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,840
juggle it to wherever he's playing, but we're still gonna

316
00:15:31,879 --> 00:15:33,639
end up with a bottom five record. Is what they

317
00:15:33,679 --> 00:15:35,360
need to keep the pick that gives the Knicks a

318
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,559
zero percent chance of getting it. I need if I'm

319
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,279
going to extend him, I need. I need to see

320
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,960
him play basketball. But I can't do what the Raptors

321
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,840
did with Brandon Ingram. I guess although the number you say,

322
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,000
if it's really like three for like one hundred and

323
00:15:51,039 --> 00:15:54,200
five or four for one forty, I would be tempted

324
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,399
to just do it, just because that's row enough where

325
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,080
he's taking he's slated for what forty nine to fifty

326
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,399
next year if he's making thirty five, I mean, he's

327
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,720
just shaved off like twenty five percent of his salary

328
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,960
or so, I man, that's tough. I don't I think

329
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,320
I would be surprised if they gave him an extension

330
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,919
because with the Raptors, unless he plays and it goes well, maybe,

331
00:16:15,919 --> 00:16:17,519
but if he doesn't play, or if he's playing a

332
00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:20,000
fewer than fifteen games or something. The Raptors did give

333
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:24,440
up a first round pick in that trade, and the

334
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,399
Wizards didn't like they literally like they they didn't give

335
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,200
up any picks. There was rumors that did they need

336
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,600
to get picks to make this happen? And so I

337
00:16:31,639 --> 00:16:34,799
do think they have a tangible interest in seeing how

338
00:16:34,799 --> 00:16:38,120
Trey Young fits. But this isn't married to Trey Young

339
00:16:38,519 --> 00:16:40,360
the way that I think the Raptors were to brandon

340
00:16:40,399 --> 00:16:41,480
a right if that makes any.

341
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: Sense, and it doesn't, it does make sense. And that's

342
00:16:44,159 --> 00:16:46,600
what we don't know yet, Like we don't know where

343
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,919
the Wizzards stand, and it's entirely when it comes to

344
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,480
Trey Young. And that's going to be interesting to track

345
00:16:52,639 --> 00:16:55,960
over thecoming what it's like seven months?

346
00:16:57,639 --> 00:17:01,799
Speaker 2: Yeah about Yeah, I hope he plays this year, because

347
00:17:01,799 --> 00:17:03,919
now I just want to see him on this team.

348
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,279
Speaker 1: Yeah.

349
00:17:05,319 --> 00:17:07,839
Speaker 2: What else though, So if the Wizards view Trey Young

350
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,279
as someone they're gonna keep, this gets into Okay, how

351
00:17:10,279 --> 00:17:11,799
do they approach the trade deadline?

352
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 1: Now?

353
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,759
Speaker 2: What is it you're looking for? Do you think this team?

354
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,039
Is there any other business you'd like to see them

355
00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:20,680
go about? They still have plenty of room beneath the

356
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,319
luxury tax they have after this deal they took on

357
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,480
like one point seven million dollars, you have thirty million

358
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,160
beneath the luxury tax. So they have flexibility on the

359
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,960
trade market. They have Chris Middleton's expiring contract. There are

360
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,759
things they could do. What would you like to see

361
00:17:33,799 --> 00:17:36,319
them do now that you know Trey Young is for

362
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:37,359
sure on this roster?

363
00:17:39,279 --> 00:17:42,519
Speaker 1: Yeah? So I don't want to go out and you know,

364
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,920
go all out for a veteran. That's not what I

365
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,000
want to do. I don't want to use Chris Middleton

366
00:17:48,039 --> 00:17:49,759
to go out and get some bonus for example.

367
00:17:50,839 --> 00:17:52,880
Speaker 2: I don't you know what you do? You snipe the

368
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,599
Hawks on Anthony Davis. Now that's what they're that's what

369
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,400
you do. I'm not advocating for that anybody any Wizards

370
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:00,559
fans that are out therapy.

371
00:18:01,279 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: You know how I feel about acquiring Anthony Davis. So

372
00:18:05,799 --> 00:18:07,720
we're not going to get into all that today because

373
00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:09,839
that is besides the point. Or maybe we are because

374
00:18:09,839 --> 00:18:14,880
we are we are actually, yeah, it's coming. I look

375
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,000
what I would like to do if I'm Washington, and

376
00:18:18,039 --> 00:18:21,160
that's more of like a short term thing. I would

377
00:18:21,279 --> 00:18:26,440
like more debt upfront, and especially defensive debt. Now is

378
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,640
that something that's super crucial to the success of this season?

379
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,160
Not really because you're trying to freaking lose, You're trying

380
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,359
to hold on to a traffic pick. But like, I

381
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,720
also don't want to see Alex Saar like get injured

382
00:18:36,759 --> 00:18:39,359
because he has to do too much stuff both sides

383
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,640
of the wall. So like I would like to see

384
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,960
someone come in and just help out a little bit

385
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:51,359
defensively on the class something of that ilk that that

386
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,799
wouldn't be something I'll be against, are they?

387
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 2: I mean this is interesting because then you're probably in

388
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,599
the realm of would you give up second picks to

389
00:19:00,599 --> 00:19:02,480
make would you go after a day Ron Sharp?

390
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,279
Speaker 1: That's not some of the nets are looking at dump

391
00:19:05,319 --> 00:19:10,960
that'd be interesting. What he's six' nine six ten, thereabouts,

392
00:19:11,039 --> 00:19:13,880
right he's that. SMALL i thought he was six ten six?

393
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,400
Eleven my, god see is? HE i, MEAN i might be.

394
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,599
Wrong WHENEVER i watch him, PLAY i just feel like

395
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,079
he's a little bit on the short.

396
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 2: Side HIS i guess his body is just like he's

397
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,480
so strong looking that maybe that yeas.

398
00:19:24,279 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: Sixteen, no he's six sixty, Ten you're, Right, okay, okay

399
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:32,319
my my fault, Day Ron, okay that's, Fine I'll i'll

400
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,400
lay down and accept lame. Here that would be interesting

401
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,279
because he fits the. Timeline he just turned twenty. Four,

402
00:19:40,079 --> 00:19:43,200
yeah was he had like six million or something along those. Lines,

403
00:19:43,279 --> 00:19:44,839
YEAH i mean they could match. THAT i think A.

404
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,559
J johnson plus something done and they're, yeah, yeah that

405
00:19:49,599 --> 00:19:50,079
wouldn't be a.

406
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 2: Problem, yeah maybe Even, again getting to the, money you're

407
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,480
probably looking at different teams because, now now what's interesting

408
00:19:56,519 --> 00:20:00,960
about The wizard's situation is they don't have their best salary.

409
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,359
Matching you don't want to trade any of the actual

410
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,960
young guys that are making sort of the middle rung

411
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:10,400
salaries at this. Point so you have Either Chris, middleton

412
00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:14,240
who's making thirty three point three, million and then after,

413
00:20:14,279 --> 00:20:18,000
THAT i would say the next most expensive expendable player

414
00:20:18,039 --> 00:20:20,799
Is Malachi branham has that five million dollar.

415
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,039
Speaker 1: Five million is looking at restricted free, agencies so like

416
00:20:24,079 --> 00:20:26,000
they might want to try to get out of that as,

417
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,559
well just pivot off of. Him he'stop playing that a whole.

418
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 2: LOT i guess, honestly if you combine him with you

419
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,079
combine his salary with Aj, johnson so you're looking at

420
00:20:34,279 --> 00:20:37,160
eight point one million in total with the money that

421
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:38,680
they can actually. Take but they can actually get a

422
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,079
pretty reasonably priced player at.

423
00:20:41,079 --> 00:20:43,319
Speaker 1: That i'm trying to.

424
00:20:43,319 --> 00:20:47,559
Speaker 2: Save any other names spring to, mind there's NOT i,

425
00:20:47,559 --> 00:20:50,599
Mean Robert williams the third be pretty easy to match.

426
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,960
THIS i think the two names we named get it.

427
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,559
Done not yeah without, picks but, WAY i mean he's

428
00:20:57,599 --> 00:21:01,160
playing this, season he is relative to his track, record.

429
00:21:01,839 --> 00:21:06,400
Right would you be interested in a lightly to moderately

430
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,440
Use Mitchell robinson as a backup to sarn maybe some

431
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:11,920
minutes where they played it, Again, yes.

432
00:21:12,079 --> 00:21:14,839
Speaker 1: YES i would with The. Knicks would The knicks be

433
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,000
willing to pivot? Off? Well?

434
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 2: There, so WHAT i will say about The knicks front

435
00:21:18,039 --> 00:21:22,119
office is that they have historically traded guys that they

436
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,519
don't want to pay moving forward and so if they're

437
00:21:24,559 --> 00:21:28,119
terrified of his next, CONTRACT i would expect them to trade.

438
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,160
Him and if they don't trade, HIM i almost expect

439
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:31,880
him to sign a deal before he reaches free.

440
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:33,319
Speaker 1: Agency we.

441
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: Mentioned let's reference the PODCAST i will ever Hear E'S

442
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,279
mesi a little smaller six' nine might not be A

443
00:21:39,279 --> 00:21:41,400
bad i.

444
00:21:41,599 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 1: Would again you could throw fifty different centers at Me

445
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,240
and i'd probably be very receptive, to it because my

446
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,240
entire focus point here is just Not Letting alek sar

447
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,640
stand with that much responsibility on. The, SHOULDERS well.

448
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 2: I think the AYAH and i guess you're right they

449
00:21:59,079 --> 00:22:03,720
maybe you could talk yourself into needing more perimeter, defensive

450
00:22:03,799 --> 00:22:06,920
juice but You, Have blake george. Is Fine justin champenni.

451
00:22:07,039 --> 00:22:09,960
IS good i guess if you wanted a like a guard,

452
00:22:10,039 --> 00:22:12,799
stopper type Like A chris dunn on this team to

453
00:22:12,839 --> 00:22:14,920
go muck ship up on the Floor, With trey i'm

454
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,799
Like bub Carrington Or trey johnson isn't necessarily gonna do that, For?

455
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:22,799
Speaker 1: You right do? We want do we? Want that if you're.

456
00:22:23,839 --> 00:22:26,079
Speaker 2: Just as an as, An option i'm not saying you

457
00:22:26,079 --> 00:22:29,200
need To Play chris DUNN or, I Mean jamal shad

458
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,799
would be interesting on, this team like play one of

459
00:22:30,799 --> 00:22:33,559
those guys over Bub Or, trey johnson but just to

460
00:22:33,599 --> 00:22:37,960
have that tool in. Your, belt ooh he'd. Be good

461
00:22:38,039 --> 00:22:42,400
kean ellis be interesting. To, us, yeah, Yeah GO but

462
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,880
I think i think That's the i'm with You on

463
00:22:45,039 --> 00:22:47,599
it be cool to see a big just to someone

464
00:22:47,599 --> 00:22:51,119
Who's Not marvin Bagley Or tristan Vuksovich behind. Alex R

465
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,559
maybe i think sars dynamic and off offensively that this

466
00:22:54,599 --> 00:22:57,279
would not be my Default If I'm, brian keith but

467
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,839
you could play him alongside pretty much any big at.

468
00:23:00,839 --> 00:23:02,319
This stage with the way that he shot the ball,

469
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,880
THIS year. I agree do you final thing On. The

470
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,400
wizards do you expect them to do anything else that

471
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,160
you'll clock in your head or do you think this

472
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,880
is gonna be a relatively quiet. Trade donline maybe they

473
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,200
take on they've kind of already shown they're not afraid

474
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,160
to take on money for. NEXT year i could see

475
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,400
them still going that route if they're gonna get compensated.

476
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,599
Speaker 1: For, it yeah so it seemed that just. Did this

477
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,480
i'm not closing the door on them doing, something ELSE

478
00:23:28,799 --> 00:23:30,640
but i don't think they're in a rush to. DO

479
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,400
anything i don't think they're gonna panic their way into

480
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,519
the trade to find, and, say oh we need To

481
00:23:35,559 --> 00:23:38,559
Flip chris midleton for something because he's an expiring and

482
00:23:38,599 --> 00:23:41,440
like we have to utilize that. Cap slot, LIKE no

483
00:23:41,599 --> 00:23:45,079
i think this is a question of waiting and reading.

484
00:23:45,079 --> 00:23:47,839
The market, like again they Gave up cet McCollum And

485
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,319
corey kisbert. For, trade yawk, That's it like that's a trade.

486
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,599
You do that's a trade you don't even think twice

487
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:57,640
about because, it's, like yeah. It's fine so if there's

488
00:23:57,839 --> 00:24:01,319
a deal that pops up that is so richridiculously lopsided

489
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,839
for from, their PERSPECTIVE then i expect them to. Pursue

490
00:24:05,839 --> 00:24:09,559
it but if, THERE isn't i think they're just fine

491
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,880
saying this will? Our deadline would they?

492
00:24:13,039 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 2: This, isn't Yeah They andre Drummond And quint capella fit

493
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,839
Into That jonnas valancunas trade exception on two teams that

494
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:21,880
might be looking at. Duct attacks that might be something

495
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:22,400
they they could.

496
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: Look At but i'm with you, playing right like he's

497
00:24:25,039 --> 00:24:26,880
not playing a whole bunch doesn't feel, like.

498
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 2: Well they mean they have like how many Bigs does

499
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,759
houston technically have So.

500
00:24:32,519 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: And austin's comment think About the hawks are about to get.

501
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 2: To them the Final thing i'll say On the WIZARDS

502
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,559
is i think part OF why i do feel COMFORTABLE

503
00:24:38,599 --> 00:24:41,039
is i Know that timdansis is still the owner of,

504
00:24:41,079 --> 00:24:44,160
this team But The michael Winger And will dawkins led.

505
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,480
Front OFFICE and, I mean i guess it's if you're

506
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,640
a little uneasy Because The travis slank Link to trey

507
00:24:49,759 --> 00:24:51,599
if that makes you a, little unsettled do you think

508
00:24:51,599 --> 00:24:53,119
they're going to pay him more than? They should we

509
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,599
could talk, about IT but i just trust the way

510
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,839
this front office has taken steps so Far that i'm

511
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,240
open minded about. This act like If the kings had,

512
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,000
done this, YOU absolutely i absolutely it was gonna. Ether

513
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,480
them but they But the wizards. DOING it i think

514
00:25:09,519 --> 00:25:13,240
that they have an actual plan or, an idea a

515
00:25:13,279 --> 00:25:16,079
realistic idea of what this could do for him And

516
00:25:16,519 --> 00:25:18,720
other i've heard in some of the reactions people talk

517
00:25:18,759 --> 00:25:20,920
about this and, it matters. You know shout Out to,

518
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,000
matt mcderno friend of the podcast Over At Believe, in

519
00:25:23,039 --> 00:25:27,720
wizards did mention from The puts butts in, Seat standpoint

520
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,400
he talked a lot about seeing Jerseys of LaMelo BALL,

521
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,880
around dc of seeing jerseys of. Other players you don't

522
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,839
See alex aar jerseys around there. As Much trey young

523
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,039
still kind of has, That appeal and if you Want

524
00:25:41,079 --> 00:25:42,960
the wizards to just be a little bit, more interesting

525
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,519
IRRELEVANT with i think out obliterating everything that they've put,

526
00:25:46,519 --> 00:25:49,720
in place there are way worse things that they could

527
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,640
that they could have, Done here And so i'm willing

528
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,559
to give Even though i'm not sold entirely on, The

529
00:25:54,559 --> 00:25:57,880
fit i'm willing to give this front office and right

530
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,440
now a ton of leeway the benefit of a.

531
00:26:00,519 --> 00:26:02,799
Speaker 1: Doubt same would.

532
00:26:02,599 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 2: You like to talk About The atlanta hawks end of

533
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,920
the trade for this They Got corey KISBURT.

534
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: And. Cj McCollum were you at all surprised by.

535
00:26:12,559 --> 00:26:14,519
Speaker 2: Or maybe you didn't see these reactions as MUCH as

536
00:26:14,519 --> 00:26:17,559
i did the mass Amount of, You know i'm in the,

537
00:26:17,599 --> 00:26:18,440
minority HERE but.

538
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:19,279
Speaker 1: I really love this For.

539
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,519
Speaker 2: THE hawks i was surprised at how many people actually did.

540
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: Love it For.

541
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 2: THE hawks i thought it was at LEAST worth i

542
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,559
gave THEM a c PLUS when i, grated IT and

543
00:26:27,599 --> 00:26:28,319
i Gave the WIZARDS.

544
00:26:28,319 --> 00:26:31,039
Speaker 1: A b plus over a. BLEACHER report i thought it.

545
00:26:31,079 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 2: WAS fine i think that there's value in getting Out

546
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,559
Of trey young's player option because you were going to be,

547
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,160
you know now, you go you might have twenty five

548
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,279
plus million in cap space if You Renounced canard porzingis the.

549
00:26:42,279 --> 00:26:45,480
Whole nine and if you put trays fifty million ish on,

550
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,000
the books you're all of, A, sudden oh can we

551
00:26:47,079 --> 00:26:50,960
Re sign porzingis and stay under the tax and continue

552
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,359
to add to. Our team but let's also kind of.

553
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,400
Not forget the two things that are standing out to

554
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,200
Me Is trey young is shouldering an awful lot of

555
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,440
blame For this hawks season for someone who's only appeared in.

556
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,279
Speaker 1: Ten. Games correct, and.

557
00:27:03,279 --> 00:27:06,359
Speaker 2: Two this is something, where like how long have we

558
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,279
been Having The tray young Conversation?

559
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,079
Speaker 1: In atlanta feels like two to, three years, four years.

560
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,440
Four years the point.

561
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 2: Being this Is, not oh with the benefit, of hindsight

562
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,720
they would have moved. Him sooner it seemed very clear

563
00:27:20,759 --> 00:27:23,839
that they weren't completely married to him for. A while

564
00:27:24,319 --> 00:27:27,680
they waited past the pinnacle of his value to where

565
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,720
you're not getting any. PICKS now i just think the

566
00:27:30,759 --> 00:27:33,759
optics on that are unless you're gonna sit here and

567
00:27:33,759 --> 00:27:35,640
tell me that in twenty twenty four they couldn't have

568
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,839
gotten a single draft Pick For. TREY young I don't

569
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,640
i understand. THIS deal i don't KNOW that i. LOVE

570
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,319
it i don't know That the hawks are a slight

571
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,359
net positive with barely a league average offense this Year

572
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,759
When trey young is off.

573
00:27:48,759 --> 00:27:49,599
Speaker 1: THE court i don't.

574
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,599
Speaker 2: KNOW that I think corey kisspertin, seek him call, him

575
00:27:52,599 --> 00:27:55,039
FIT but i don't know that they diversify your.

576
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 1: Attack enough To where atlanta.

577
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,799
Speaker 2: Is better, to me this was more about dredging up

578
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:05,359
more flexibility into. The summer and that's rather than maybe

579
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,480
even give it a grade or a final verdict that

580
00:28:07,519 --> 00:28:11,039
FEELS very tbd, to me it's what do they parlay this.

581
00:28:11,079 --> 00:28:14,599
Flexibility INTO so i looked at it a little. BIT

582
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,880
differently i Gave the HAWKS a b plus or. A

583
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:21,039
jahoo and THE reason i did is because they found

584
00:28:21,559 --> 00:28:24,960
in an arcic type of GUARD who i think Works Alongside.

585
00:28:25,039 --> 00:28:28,640
JALEN johnson i THINK getting ct mccollumy in there is

586
00:28:28,839 --> 00:28:34,640
basically the perfect player to Pair, with Johnston, With Nikhiel

587
00:28:34,839 --> 00:28:38,440
alexander Walker With, John Jiaco Kungu sagarary rushachet. Those guys

588
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:43,279
so my thinking here is they are going to basically

589
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:47,799
be able to just gather so much data as humanly

590
00:28:47,839 --> 00:28:51,759
possible on having a type of combo guard who isn't

591
00:28:51,759 --> 00:28:55,000
your Lead Playmaker jalen, johnson is but who can take

592
00:28:55,079 --> 00:28:59,039
over playmaking duties when he, Needs to someone who offers

593
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:03,440
a some space, in gravity someone who is able to

594
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,920
play off, the ball someone who won't monopolize. THE offense

595
00:29:07,599 --> 00:29:10,880
i think this is LIKE. If cj McCollum had been

596
00:29:12,039 --> 00:29:16,240
just five, years younger this would have been the perfect

597
00:29:16,279 --> 00:29:19,160
fit and, long TERM but. I don't i still think

598
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,200
they can use him for now and use like his

599
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,960
archet type in terms Of, identifying okay this is what

600
00:29:26,079 --> 00:29:28,559
works alongside, these guys like this is the type of

601
00:29:28,559 --> 00:29:31,599
player we need, to identify just on a, younger scale

602
00:29:32,319 --> 00:29:34,839
and trying to figure out how can we find this

603
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,079
guy who Works With, dyson daniels Works With, gale johnson

604
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:42,039
works With The keelexander Walker, on Yeokungo Potentially. Chris tops

605
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,240
we don't know what's gonna happen with that contract, moving

606
00:29:44,279 --> 00:29:46,359
forward but like that has to be part of. The

607
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:51,839
CALCULUS so I personally i love it, for That but

608
00:29:52,359 --> 00:29:55,039
i'm also worried that they're gonna fuck it up and

609
00:29:55,079 --> 00:29:57,400
go Trade For. Anthony davis but that's a that's a

610
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,000
talk for to live down. The Road this chams did

611
00:30:01,039 --> 00:30:04,119
put out there that they're lining themselves up for a

612
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,599
bigger move and or might still be In On. ANTHONY

613
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:11,160
davis i, would, argue now had They Traded trey YOUNG

614
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:16,319
for cj McCollum And aj Johnson Or, MALACHI brandham i would, Have,

615
00:30:16,359 --> 00:30:19,000
said okay now they can DO the i don't know

616
00:30:19,039 --> 00:30:20,599
what the pick cost would, have been but they Can

617
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:25,720
Do porzingis canard SMALL salary X For anthony davis and

618
00:30:25,799 --> 00:30:26,400
remain under.

619
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,079
Speaker 1: The tax they can't do that now because you CAN'T.

620
00:30:29,119 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 2: Aggregate cj McCollum Or corey kisbert alongside, other players and

621
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,759
so you if you're not willing To Include, zachary RESISCHE

622
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,519
which i. Am not to, Be clear i'm not saying.

623
00:30:38,519 --> 00:30:40,759
THEY should i wouldn't include him In An anthony. DAVIS

624
00:30:40,839 --> 00:30:43,079
trade i think it's way too early to say we're

625
00:30:43,119 --> 00:30:45,480
just out on. This guy AND also i don't want

626
00:30:45,559 --> 00:30:48,079
a Part Of anthony davis and there he'd be Interesting.

627
00:30:48,079 --> 00:30:49,759
In atlanta but now that the more they look at,

628
00:30:49,759 --> 00:30:52,000
This roster i'm like he'd be more Interesting. In Atlanta

629
00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:54,559
christophs porzingis was, still there and so it's Him And

630
00:30:54,599 --> 00:30:56,960
jaellen Johnson And. Christops porzingis YOU'RE being kp off the

631
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,720
bench and then you kind of. Paper over we KNOW

632
00:30:59,759 --> 00:31:02,319
both kp and eighty a're gonna, miss time but there's

633
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,920
just unless they're putting recessche on. The Table this hawks

634
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,279
team is not paying. The tax what do we Know about?

635
00:31:08,319 --> 00:31:11,680
Hawks ownership it's not it's not. Flippant HAPPENING so i

636
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,400
think an ad trade is off the, Table now but

637
00:31:14,599 --> 00:31:17,200
is it off the table over the summer when they

638
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,519
could have twenty five plus million dollars in cap space

639
00:31:19,559 --> 00:31:23,400
to build a. LOPSIDED trade i, just now if you're

640
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,279
gonna go to the cap, space route you DON'T. Have

641
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,839
cj McCollum or kp on. Your books so then who's

642
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,559
the magic salary in?

643
00:31:30,599 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 1: That trade Is It?

644
00:31:31,279 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 2: Dison daniels all of, A sudden THAT'S why i need

645
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:38,839
to see what this flexibility. Turns INTO and i do

646
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,000
agree with a lot of what you SAID. About cj

647
00:31:41,079 --> 00:31:44,000
mccoum being an easier fit with Not Only. Jalen johnson

648
00:31:44,039 --> 00:31:46,359
but now you can you Know the hawks having all

649
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,160
these other secondary ball handlers In, The Keith alexander Walker

650
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,400
And dyson Daniels Plus. JALEN johnson I think jj is

651
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:56,240
the only one caliber of player who's equipped to run

652
00:31:56,559 --> 00:32:00,799
like that's that's an, alpha type, but okay to help

653
00:32:00,799 --> 00:32:03,000
that and. HE'S not i don't think he makes guys around,

654
00:32:03,079 --> 00:32:05,079
him better but he'll draw attention when he's on, the

655
00:32:05,079 --> 00:32:07,039
ball so that will help out other guys on. The

656
00:32:07,079 --> 00:32:11,400
team but what does this team need now moving forward

657
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,160
or what is the direction for it. MOVING forward i

658
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,599
don't think we're gonna necessarily find out at the.

659
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,119
Speaker 1: Trade deadline this is not.

660
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 2: A deal if they were in the market for a

661
00:32:20,559 --> 00:32:23,000
higher End big they've been mentioned For A vita zu box.

662
00:32:23,039 --> 00:32:27,359
As well this trade doesn't like negate that need AND

663
00:32:27,839 --> 00:32:32,160
they i think you could also argue you need Another Non,

664
00:32:32,279 --> 00:32:34,880
jalen johnson at least someone who's close to a primary

665
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,799
playmaker or floor general, type now because no one else

666
00:32:38,839 --> 00:32:42,480
on the roster unless you really Believe In Nikhil, Alexander

667
00:32:42,519 --> 00:32:47,440
Walker vic fraichie Or Or dyson. Daniels himself they just

668
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,279
don't have that, right NOW and i want to throw

669
00:32:50,279 --> 00:32:51,960
it to you to prompt you to bring up a

670
00:32:52,039 --> 00:32:55,200
name for free agency that you had brought up in.

671
00:32:55,240 --> 00:33:00,160
The podcast no one will Ever Hear. Austin reeves do

672
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,759
you think that that is still someone that they, should

673
00:33:01,759 --> 00:33:03,640
have so they'd have to carve out, More space but

674
00:33:03,759 --> 00:33:06,039
is that someone that they should, Have circle does that

675
00:33:06,039 --> 00:33:07,759
still a name that you like for this team now

676
00:33:07,759 --> 00:33:08,720
that you've seen this trade?

677
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,839
Speaker 1: Go, down yeah. ABSOLUTELY So, I look i Know That

678
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,319
austin reeves takes a lot of, shit for, you know

679
00:33:15,599 --> 00:33:19,759
the lack of defense that he's, you know primarily an offensive.

680
00:33:19,799 --> 00:33:23,119
DRIVEN player i agree, With that but do you think

681
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,839
he plays more Defense Than? TREY yung i do. THINK

682
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,400
that i do think the size alone is going to

683
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,000
be more of. An Advantage but i'm just looking at

684
00:33:33,039 --> 00:33:35,359
a guy who is playing a ton of pig and,

685
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,440
roll basketball who can also spot up if he, needs

686
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,359
to who is very capable of setting up, his teammates

687
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,200
who is very capable of getting to, the basket who's

688
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,920
getting to the, foul line but he's doing so within

689
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,640
the fabric of the team offense instead of, just launching,

690
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,279
you know pull up threes from the logo more. Or

691
00:33:53,359 --> 00:33:57,160
LESS so i would Love For austin reeves to join.

692
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,599
THIS roster i think that would be a tremendous fit

693
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:04,599
because he'd be that secondary slash Primary when jalen is,

694
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:08,239
sitting playmaker, play initiator or someone who can just make.

695
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,960
Things happen like they can play in conjunction with, each

696
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,960
other they can. PLAY separately i think that's how a

697
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,320
guard would be superb.

698
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:20,039
Speaker 2: For, THEM frankly i think what you get in the

699
00:34:20,039 --> 00:34:22,519
issue of so do you think it'll take if he's

700
00:34:22,599 --> 00:34:24,239
Leaving THE lakers maxi money to?

701
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,559
Speaker 1: Get him, PROBABLY right i mean that's forty one zero

702
00:34:28,599 --> 00:34:29,159
point five.

703
00:34:29,199 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 2: Million dollars they need to figure out a way to

704
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,480
come up with another like fourteen to fifteen million bug

705
00:34:33,559 --> 00:34:35,679
you could sign and you could.

706
00:34:35,639 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 1: Make it work via sign, AND trade. I suppose but

707
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:39,360
that's where it.

708
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,079
Speaker 2: Gets dicey AND so i think that's also the challenge

709
00:34:42,119 --> 00:34:46,000
here is the guard market overall this summer is not.

710
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,639
Especially deep if you were looking for a big man

711
00:34:48,679 --> 00:34:50,719
on the, open market you're probably gonna have a better

712
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,320
chance of filling that void than of going to get.

713
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,599
Speaker 1: Another guard and so are they gonna Have to.

714
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,679
Speaker 2: I'm wondering i'm almost wondering if should there be an

715
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,159
urge and see, for them because if they don't address

716
00:35:03,159 --> 00:35:04,840
it at this trade deadline where you COULD. Trade cg

717
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,559
McCullum on his. Standalone deal you also Do have KP's,

718
00:35:07,599 --> 00:35:11,079
expiring contract You, have canard You, have kisspert you could trade,

719
00:35:11,119 --> 00:35:13,519
him alone should there be maybe an urgency while YOU

720
00:35:13,639 --> 00:35:18,519
have i would say a surplus of salary matching tools

721
00:35:18,599 --> 00:35:22,360
to try and find a player of, that caliber because if,

722
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,440
YOU don't i don't know that that player is going

723
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,639
to be available for the cap space range they're going

724
00:35:26,679 --> 00:35:28,480
to be in. This summer so you put yourself in

725
00:35:28,519 --> 00:35:30,960
a position, to, where well we have to sign these

726
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:36,079
other contracts with the intent of them becoming trade ballast down,

727
00:35:36,119 --> 00:35:38,920
the line whether it's the twenty twenty seven trade deadline.

728
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,760
Speaker 1: OR beyond i think that's a really good question, to

729
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,159
ask because you're right, it again going into, free agency

730
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,079
we just don't know what, shakes, Off right like we've seen,

731
00:35:51,119 --> 00:35:54,159
it before the cap. Space plan how often does that

732
00:35:54,519 --> 00:36:00,719
really work even for like teams that are, you know high,

733
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,519
market teams big, market teams some of them even fall

734
00:36:03,639 --> 00:36:05,960
through once in, a while like they'll spend years saving

735
00:36:06,039 --> 00:36:08,559
up money for a specific summer and, they'll go we're

736
00:36:08,559 --> 00:36:10,960
gonna get a superstar because we're the God Damn Los

737
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,280
angeles lakers or whatever, it was and then they ended

738
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,760
up with a long nose, because nope. They weren't like

739
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,400
they just completely. Flamed out and if it can happen

740
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,559
to everyone, like that it's not necessarily a. Staple PLAN

741
00:36:24,119 --> 00:36:27,559
so i do think that they have to exercise every

742
00:36:27,599 --> 00:36:31,280
single opportunity that, they have or at least theorize. About

743
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,880
it have. Some meetings if you can flip, you know

744
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,840
On Ye ko kongo with, someone else, for example and

745
00:36:39,119 --> 00:36:42,920
turn that into a major, balloon package like you give

746
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,280
up your entire. BigMan DEATH so i was about, to,

747
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:48,639
Say oh Kongo and KP's that's suddenly giving up your BigMan.

748
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,639
Rotation altogether but like you catch my trist if you

749
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,920
can gather a couple, of contracts stitch them together for

750
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:59,840
something big and there's something there. That's, INTERESTING yeah, I

751
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,840
mean i don't think they're. Against that i'm not. Against

752
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,159
that it just, to me the entire crux of the

753
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,599
issue comes down to does, this player whoever that player

754
00:37:09,679 --> 00:37:13,400
is Fit With jalen johnson's specific, playing style because that

755
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,840
has to be the revolving question now that we're talking

756
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:20,719
about in every future transaction, for them at least over the,

757
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,119
next year, two years, three years maybe that has to be,

758
00:37:24,159 --> 00:37:28,400
the question does this player Fit With. JALEN johnson i

759
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:28,880
think that's.

760
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 2: The Question but i'm also find myself wondering what's the

761
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,559
bare minimum level of player they need in, that spot

762
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,159
because it's not you're not going to say if they were,

763
00:37:38,159 --> 00:37:39,920
To trade i'm just gonna thrown names Here For, Jose,

764
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,880
alvarado right that's not gonna do it, for, You, right.

765
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: No we were talking about it because we did a

766
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,519
long podcast yesterday With Like. Kobe white we Brought up

767
00:37:49,559 --> 00:37:54,079
kobe as a a. PLAY broke i believe you said

768
00:37:54,559 --> 00:37:58,920
that would be a, player who, while good felt a

769
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,000
little small in terms of, like, scale right And Like

770
00:38:02,079 --> 00:38:06,320
austin reeves fit more along like the the star caliber

771
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:06,800
player you're.

772
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 2: Looking, FOR yeah i think he just does More like

773
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,599
kobe fits away from. The ball but if you were

774
00:38:12,599 --> 00:38:15,880
looking to like, be dynamic like dynamic movement away from,

775
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,719
THE ball I Think austin reeves does a lot more.

776
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:18,199
Speaker 1: Of That By.

777
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,679
Speaker 2: Koby, white yes you, KNOW what i hadn't given this.

778
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,519
Much thought he's injured, right now so this would be an.

779
00:38:23,559 --> 00:38:26,800
Offseason thing but this team is, getting expensive and if

780
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,880
they're going to Resign tar Easan And van fleet picks

781
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,760
up that, player option isn't he just flat? Twenty five

782
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,559
that could be interesting if they. WERE willing I maybe

783
00:38:35,679 --> 00:38:37,480
land has to give, up something or maybe they. Get

784
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,400
off maybe It's kiss Bert for Fred van fleet at

785
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,280
that point that might. Be AN he's i know he's

786
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,320
getting older and coming off, an injury but that you

787
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,599
want to talk about someone who. WOULD fit i don't

788
00:38:47,599 --> 00:38:50,199
know if he's a level of playmaker you'd normally want.

789
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 1: And, EFFICIENCY wise i don't. Love it fair it's he's,

790
00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:00,679
So small like that's also. A name, you're small? He's

791
00:39:00,679 --> 00:39:03,000
small is he Smaller Than? Trey? Young, right yeah he. Is,

792
00:39:03,039 --> 00:39:06,880
smaller yeah he's like he's he's sturdier and like he's he's,

793
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,639
you know he has like what about forty Pounds on trey,

794
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,679
after all that's like that's, Fair enough but at the,

795
00:39:14,679 --> 00:39:17,599
same time like this is a guy who routinely hits

796
00:39:17,639 --> 00:39:20,039
like forty seven thirty eight percent from the, field overall

797
00:39:20,079 --> 00:39:23,760
AND while i appreciate that a large percentage of his shots.

798
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:28,480
Are threes i'm still not in love with his offensive

799
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,239
game in terms of like being an off ball guy

800
00:39:33,039 --> 00:39:35,519
and coming off the. Major, Injury like i'm seeing some,

801
00:39:35,559 --> 00:39:37,639
Red FLAGS but i don't hate. THE name i think

802
00:39:37,679 --> 00:39:41,719
that was like the. Right, approach YEAH there's, I mean

803
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,800
I'd Love. PEYTON pritchard i just can't See the celtics

804
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,599
trading him as kind Of. Great god he would, Be

805
00:39:46,679 --> 00:39:50,880
perfect he'd. Be, perfect yeah he'd. Be perfect now is

806
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,159
this too big of. A name let's say this team,

807
00:39:53,199 --> 00:39:56,159
flames out which is not a stretch because it's. Now, Happened,

808
00:39:57,159 --> 00:40:01,679
OKAY yeah i was Gonna Say arius garland if he.

garland is he the same caliber of name now that

811
00:40:11,639 --> 00:40:15,119
he was a. YEAR ago i still think, of maybe

812
00:40:15,119 --> 00:40:15,760
with the Exception.

813
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:20,159
Speaker 2: Of reeves at, THIS moment I Like darius garland is

814
00:40:20,159 --> 00:40:20,880

00:40:30,119 --> 00:40:32,039

Speaker 2: Would love it if he would throw fewer, jump passes

821
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,000

825
00:40:47,679 --> 00:40:50,639
Speaker 1: Need you we don't need you playing off. Your feet. That's,

826
00:40:50,679 --> 00:40:55,039
FAIR yeah i hope he listens that. That too like

827
00:40:55,079 --> 00:40:57,559
he is also the type of leek GUARD that i

828
00:40:57,599 --> 00:40:59,960
think would Fit. In, ATLANTA frankly I Think, darius garland,

829
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,400
if healthy fits on, Most teams like he was the

830
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,480
POINT guard i had circled Before the spurs Went After,

831
00:41:07,519 --> 00:41:11,519
tieran fox, for example but Like the cavaliers were finding,

832
00:41:11,559 --> 00:41:14,400
their groove like it wasn't realistic at that point. In

833
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,800
Time but garland was the guy, For me like he

834
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,519
would just fit so seamlessly offensively onto so. Many TEAMS

835
00:41:21,599 --> 00:41:24,679
so i don't think that's a bad name to to

836
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,519
throw into. The mix what about.

837
00:41:27,639 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 2: He's not when you're looking at the playmaking of. It

838
00:41:32,039 --> 00:41:35,119
all you Mentioned, the spurs which is why he kind

839
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:37,880
of just popped into. My Mind But devin vessel, mm

840
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,079
hmm we seem to do a little more playmaking on

841
00:41:40,159 --> 00:41:44,159
different iterations Of the, SPURS ude i.

842
00:41:44,079 --> 00:41:48,320
Speaker 1: Mean the PLAY so i WOULD trust, I look I Love.

843
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,360
DEVIN missel i trust CURRENT. Age cj McCollum moore with

844
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,159
the ball in, his HANDS that i Do devn missel

845
00:41:54,559 --> 00:41:58,519
SO at i don't think there is that playmaking chops

846
00:41:59,079 --> 00:42:02,920
OR like i think he is more of like a

847
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,440
one to two triple pull. Up guy, if anything could

848
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,920
he expand himself a little bit More in atlanta so

849
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,559
we can see if there's. Something there not ruling, that

850
00:42:12,679 --> 00:42:15,239
out but it does feel Like the spurs have given

851
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:20,360
him ample opportunity to showcase that where it's just. Not

852
00:42:20,639 --> 00:42:23,360
HAPPENED so i don't know what to put. In that

853
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:23,880
you know?

854
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,039
Speaker 2: What's interesting the names we're, throwing out we haven't. Even

855
00:42:26,039 --> 00:42:29,719
considered you Just Traded trey young and like your future you?

856
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,679
Have flexibility do you have a lotty, They're signed You've Paid,

857
00:42:32,679 --> 00:42:36,360
dison daniels You've Paid. Jon johnson we haven't even. Considered

858
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,599
that Are the hawks like taking a more gradual?

859
00:42:38,639 --> 00:42:39,639
Speaker 1: Approach here we're.

860
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,800
Speaker 2: Just just like they're being Linked To. Anthony davis should they

861
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:43,599
go after a big? Name big should they go after

862
00:42:43,639 --> 00:42:46,119
A Current? All star guard or just a much. BETTER

863
00:42:46,159 --> 00:42:50,239
guard i think that that's the direction they're gonna, Ultimately

864
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,559
Take but i'm just curious, As that like should they

865
00:42:52,559 --> 00:42:54,880
be in the market for some OF these i don't

866
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,559
even want to call them Second draft i'd be Like

867
00:42:56,559 --> 00:42:58,719
a rob dilling him taking a flyer, On him or

868
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:00,840
If the sixers want to get Rid of, Jared, McCain

869
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,119
like should that be something they're willing to, look at

870
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,639
or is it you want more bankable value at this

871
00:43:07,679 --> 00:43:11,800
point because you have paid some of these, Guys already, SO.

872
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:15,800
Speaker 1: No, I mean i'm always of the opinion that you should.

873
00:43:16,079 --> 00:43:19,239
Explore Everything Like, ROB dillingham i would be interested, in that,

874
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,440
but like given how little data we have on him

875
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,440
Because the wolves just aren't, Playing him it's it's one

876
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,639
of THOSE situations i could see go, South quickly like

877
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,079
how many times did we not see someone go for

878
00:43:31,159 --> 00:43:33,280
a second draft guy where we're all, got like oh,

879
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,440
my god they, got him and then that player just

880
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,840
flamed out and turned. Into Nothing like i'm old enough

881
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,719
to Remember the bulls Trading for jimmer, For dead like

882
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,079
that didn't, work, Out sir Like.

883
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,679
Speaker 2: That's Hardwoo knocks Podcast guest jimmer for dead was on.

884
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 1: This podcast, All, RIGHT well, i, mean, look hey, Good.

885
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,079
On jimmer that's got to be a career highlight because

886
00:43:55,079 --> 00:44:02,559
you sure a cell wasn't playing For. The bulls, Oh man,

887
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,199
i'm sorry but Like To, rob dillingham like there's just

888
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,239
not enough date on the kip yet to a Point where, i'm,

889
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:14,119
like yeah go. For it like he's played seventy.

890
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 2: Nine games that's the point of a second, draft, Guy

891
00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,239
though so what you're saying is That the hawk should

892
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:19,039
not be in that type of.

893
00:44:19,079 --> 00:44:21,760
Speaker 1: A market the whole idea of a second draft Guy.

894
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:25,039
Speaker 2: Is willingham have played in one hundred and twenty games

895
00:44:25,039 --> 00:44:27,159
and sucked even more because then you have.

896
00:44:27,199 --> 00:44:30,639
Speaker 1: The, data, no no, but no not. Not necessarily But

897
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,360
what i'm SAYING is i need something. IN between I

898
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,199
think i don't need the fully, fletched STAR but i

899
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,440
also need something WITH where i have a little bit

900
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,360
more knowledge of. The SITUATION like i understand what. You're

901
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:46,639
saying it comes down, to, Compensation right like what can

902
00:44:46,639 --> 00:44:48,760
You Get rob dillingham For now we're just gonna use

903
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,760
him as, An example like what is going to be the?

904
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:55,559
PRICE tack i have, no, idea right if it's like a.

905
00:44:55,599 --> 00:44:59,400
First rounder no Frickin way i'm. Doing, that no, absolutely not.

906
00:44:59,559 --> 00:45:02,519
Speaker 2: THAT'S yeah i mean maybe it's a three team thing

907
00:45:02,559 --> 00:45:05,920
Where like minnesota Is getting ayah and you're Getting dealing

908
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,480
ham and sending seconds to the BULLSER because i think

909
00:45:08,519 --> 00:45:10,400
other teams would Value dilling cam less Than.

910
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,760
Speaker 1: The wolves know what they invested to Get dialing ham at.

911
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:16,119
Number Eight the boys would be like receiving. Draft picks what?

912
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:20,880
Is that that's a. Foreign concept what are we what

913
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:21,800
are we supposed to do?

914
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:25,559
Speaker 2: WITH these i do ultimately think that If the hawks

915
00:45:25,559 --> 00:45:27,320
are still trying to make something of, this season they

916
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,599
shouldn't be reckless at the, trade deadline but they should

917
00:45:29,679 --> 00:45:32,280
be poking around, the names like Even A, cam spencer

918
00:45:32,559 --> 00:45:34,280
what does it take to get him from like to

919
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,480
come plug in play this this year doesn't, cost like

920
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,840
doesn't cost you this long. Term flexibility but that does

921
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,840
feel like a missing piece of. This team Although maybe i'm.

922
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,519
Just wrong maybe getting Rid Of trey young and fully

923
00:45:45,599 --> 00:45:48,880
leaning Into The jalen johnson experience and getting SOMEONE. Like

924
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:53,119
cj McCollum prompts this second half of the. Season surge.

925
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,920
I'M skeptical i think Maybe the hawks end up being

926
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,880
a little bit better because they get natural Progression, from

927
00:45:59,119 --> 00:46:01,960
well What if resis? Is better What If dyson daniels

928
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:02,840
does a little bit more?

929
00:46:03,079 --> 00:46:03,159
Speaker 1: On?

930
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 2: Offense uh? WHAT if i guess you could, also say

931
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,840
What If Mikie alexander walker? Gets worse that would. Be

932
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:09,880
something What If, jalon, johnson though just continues to get

933
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:14,480
better With christophs porzingis is. More Available so i'm open

934
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,360
to the idea that they could, Be better but this trade,

935
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:20,360
in general, to me it's either underwhelming or skews very

936
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,800
HEAVILY towards i just need to see what they do

937
00:46:23,639 --> 00:46:27,679
with the newfound flexibility that, they prioritize because That's how i'm.

938
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:31,280
Reading this do have one final topic that we need to,

939
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:35,639
get to what should there be any other teams that

940
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:39,320
are looking at this tray young trade and scared shitless

941
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:43,519
as to what their star or fringe star, Trade value

942
00:46:43,599 --> 00:46:47,039
like they're approaching a decision to where maybe we should

943
00:46:47,079 --> 00:46:48,840
look at moving this guy now or did we already

944
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:53,719
missed the boat? On it, OH man i have. A

945
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,920
name it better be the.

946
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,679
Speaker 1: RIGHT name i think, it IS and I think heat

947
00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:03,519
fans are going to be pissed. At. Me BAM so

948
00:47:03,679 --> 00:47:06,639
i thought you were gonna Say, Job, Morant, no no

949
00:47:06,639 --> 00:47:09,440
well that that secret. Is out he doesn't have value

950
00:47:09,519 --> 00:47:10,440
just because of what happens off.

951
00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,360
Speaker 2: The floor But if I'm, the grizzlies it kind of.

952
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,159
JUST reinforces, i, guess like do we just keep him

953
00:47:16,199 --> 00:47:17,480
because that's what it's, gonna.

954
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: Like, Gone right, oh yeah they're not Gonna get jack shipped.

955
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:24,039
For Him they're they're. Just NOT but I think miami

956
00:47:24,119 --> 00:47:27,480
for a long While had bam pegged as someone who

957
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,360
they could probably get four or five draft. PICKS for

958
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:34,000
i don't think that's. True anymore like, you, know again

959
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,719
these players with significant warts in, their games and let's

960
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:39,920
just be real. About it bam has a ward in

961
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,079
his game that's called. Offensive execution he is not great.

962
00:47:43,119 --> 00:47:47,800
At it he's, scoring wise he is very pedestrian. Defensively

963
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,960
fantastic does you know when we talk about players would

964
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,199
do the, little things he literally does all of the.

965
00:47:53,199 --> 00:47:55,400
Little Things so i'm not trying to say that he's

966
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:58,800
not a great, basketball player but he comes with, a ceiling.

967
00:47:59,079 --> 00:48:04,000
Especially Offense, so miami who's probably spent, years, thinking, oh

968
00:48:04,079 --> 00:48:07,440
yeah we whenever we need, to pivot we can lock

969
00:48:07,519 --> 00:48:10,719
in at least like three high quality first round draft PICKS.

970
00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:15,320
FOR bam i don't think that's that's out. There, Anymore NO.

971
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,639
Speaker 2: And i think especially when he's on his, new deal

972
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,960
that changes a lot of because. It's easier so let's

973
00:48:21,039 --> 00:48:24,920
Use Even john Morant Or LaMelo ball because they're making

974
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:26,880
so much Less Than trey young, right now might be

975
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,079
easier to talk to yourself and them. GETTING value i

976
00:48:29,119 --> 00:48:31,679
have another name to throw out for the, same reason

977
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:32,280
and it's.

978
00:48:32,199 --> 00:48:32,679
Speaker 1: Probably more of.

979
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,599
Speaker 2: An issue it's just it's an, issue now would be

980
00:48:35,599 --> 00:48:37,360
more of an issue when his deal starts.

981
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,360
Speaker 1: Next Year Jared. Jackson junior you want to talk about

982
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:44,960
holes in the game. A lot now you're just setting.

983
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,159
Me up. That's, UNFAIR well i.

984
00:48:47,079 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 2: Have another ONE that i don't think is probably. Being

985
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,239
taught and this team is good But.

986
00:48:52,679 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 1: Con.

987
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:56,280
Speaker 2: Anthony towns but he has two years left on his

988
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,559
deal after, this one with a sixty plus million dollar

989
00:48:58,599 --> 00:49:01,440
player option on that. Second season if You're, the knicks

990
00:49:01,559 --> 00:49:03,320
and this IS why i would advocate for teams to,

991
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:06,559
do this is you need to negotiate and point to

992
00:49:06,639 --> 00:49:09,800
players like these deeply flawed big Names Like, Trey Young,

993
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,519
John Morant. Coronathy towns you need to be pushing to

994
00:49:13,559 --> 00:49:16,960
get extensions done that lower their average. Annual value so

995
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,239
that makes it one easier for you to build out,

996
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:21,840
your team but two maybe more appealing as a, trade

997
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,039
asset because you don't want to run into a situation

998
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:27,280
Like the hawks just Did With trey young to where

999
00:49:27,679 --> 00:49:29,840
it's the fun they waited too long to, move him

1000
00:49:30,039 --> 00:49:32,079
and it's he's in the technically the quote unquote final

1001
00:49:32,159 --> 00:49:33,960
year of his deal or has that huge, player option

1002
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:36,440
and you just have to take a bath on.

1003
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: His VALUE and i know that.

1004
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 2: PEOPLE think I think karnathon town is a, good example

1005
00:49:40,639 --> 00:49:43,239
but like what is he four time Three TIME all,

1006
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,599
Nba player like that seems insane and what, he does

1007
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:48,920
the driving and the shooting is still anomaloist at. His

1008
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:52,239
position we don't know if he can be your center in. The,

1009
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:55,320
playoffs Still the wolves decided it needed To Be. Rudy

1010
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,440
Gobert the nickson banded about does it need to? Be

1011
00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,119
mitched can we get away with him at? The five

1012
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,400
that is something like that's one of the Situations where Okay,

1013
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:06,599
Bam Adebayo Jaron, jackson junior they have more years left on.

1014
00:50:06,639 --> 00:50:08,559
Their Deal but i'm now Watching The karl anthony town

1015
00:50:08,599 --> 00:50:12,639
situation even, more Closely Including john morantz. As WELL but

1016
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,440
i think that this was sort Of a this kind

1017
00:50:15,519 --> 00:50:18,760
of proved the shift of a certain type of star

1018
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,639
if they're on a certain type. Of Contract Where daron

1019
00:50:21,679 --> 00:50:24,159
fox was still kind Of on he's on that, first

1020
00:50:24,199 --> 00:50:27,119
max so it's just easier to get value out and to,

1021
00:50:27,159 --> 00:50:29,119
be fair like he, was performing he was performing way

1022
00:50:29,159 --> 00:50:31,079
Better Than trey young was at the Time That trey young.

1023
00:50:31,519 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 1: WAS traded i.

1024
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 2: Think we're gonna See a we've already kind of seen

1025
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:36,440
a shift in how.

1026
00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 1: These teams want to or will pay.

1027
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 2: THESE players i think we're gonna see even more of

1028
00:50:40,559 --> 00:50:42,320
a shift on how they're valued.

1029
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:48,480
Speaker 1: In, TRADES yeah i very. MUCH agree, i look this

1030
00:50:48,559 --> 00:50:52,239
is a point that when our Mutual Buddy brian SUPPORT

1031
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,880
and i DID the nba podcast together for practically, ten

1032
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:58,480
years this is something we talked about, at length and

1033
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:03,400
this what you're basically saying connects very beautifully with the

1034
00:51:03,519 --> 00:51:06,800
thirty five percent max that is eligible after you played your.

1035
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:09,039
Tenth year like if you're a tenth year, of service

1036
00:51:09,679 --> 00:51:13,440
it never made freaking sense that the time that you

1037
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,559
were earning the most money was when you were initiating, a,

1038
00:51:16,599 --> 00:51:19,280
decline right it just never made a whole bunch. Of

1039
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:23,079
sense now we're seeing guys who are approaching the ten

1040
00:51:23,159 --> 00:51:27,199
year years of, service marker and teams, are, Like whoa

1041
00:51:28,039 --> 00:51:30,800
like that thing is. Coming up that is not something

1042
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:33,440
we want to get into, because like we don't want

1043
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,280
to pay someone who's like forty two forty three thirty

1044
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,000
four sixty, million dollars like forty five percent of. The

1045
00:51:40,039 --> 00:51:43,119
cap that's just not something we were interested. In doing

1046
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:45,719
and that's the correct way to look. At it, SO

1047
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,760
yes i do think there are always going to be

1048
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,639
some asshole in the league who's going to max someone an,

1049
00:51:51,639 --> 00:51:54,559
old guy and then that's going to be what agents

1050
00:51:54,679 --> 00:51:58,199
use as, you know a directive, say look Look The.

1051
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:02,840
Sacramento kings just there's, maxed out, You Know damian lillard. Or,

1052
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:08,119
whatever right like something something's. Gonna happen someone's gonna do,

1053
00:52:08,199 --> 00:52:11,400
that thing and then agents everywhere are, gonna, GO yeah

1054
00:52:11,119 --> 00:52:14,119
i want that from my. Guy too but that's where

1055
00:52:14,159 --> 00:52:16,519
the league at large just has, to, say no you

1056
00:52:16,599 --> 00:52:18,760
know you want, that money go find it, somewhere Else

1057
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,320
because i'm just not going to put my organization, through

1058
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:25,000
that which is Also why i've been so against the

1059
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,559
well Training For. ANTHONY davis i wrote this Over At

1060
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,400
yahoo sports. A basic i actually wrote an article which

1061
00:52:32,599 --> 00:52:34,800
is all about stay Away From anthony davis because, of

1062
00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,079
that the, salary commitment the fact that he's, getting older

1063
00:52:38,119 --> 00:52:41,559
the fact, he's not the lack, of availability and He

1064
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:45,599
And clutch sports are also fishing for an Extension where,

1065
00:52:45,599 --> 00:52:48,119
I'm like i'm not extending you, at all like, You

1066
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:51,719
No you're I'm not and are we still waiting or?

1067
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 2: Did it has it quietly Happened With james harden when

1068
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,840
you look at the contracts that he's signed since Leaving,

1069
00:52:56,880 --> 00:53:00,360
the Sixers because i've tried to look at WHAT'S the

1070
00:53:00,519 --> 00:53:02,199
i thought it was Gonna Be Jaron. JACKSON junior i

1071
00:53:02,199 --> 00:53:04,239
thought it was gonna Be. Dearon Fox now i'm looking

1072
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:06,679
at it, as, Oh Okay. Trey young if he signs

1073
00:53:06,679 --> 00:53:08,760
a new deal With, the wizards that would be one to,

1074
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:12,119
monitors like because we're still sort of waiting to see

1075
00:53:12,639 --> 00:53:14,840
the star That's NOT and i Would Say james harden's,

1076
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:18,159
just older but the star who's maybe not yet, thirty

1077
00:53:18,159 --> 00:53:21,079
four thirty five and older is there gonna be more

1078
00:53:21,119 --> 00:53:23,840
of a, negotiation there but maybe it's already, quietly happened

1079
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:25,559
like we've just seen It With james harden as his

1080
00:53:26,119 --> 00:53:29,400
annual value has not been as high as it as it.

1081
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,239
COULD be I Think trey young will still be a

1082
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:35,280
good flashball moment for That because i'm Assuming the wizards

1083
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,360
are not going to maxim out whether they extend him

1084
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:40,079
or wait until twenty twenty seven, free agency but we're

1085
00:53:40,079 --> 00:53:40,960
still sort of waiting.

1086
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:42,599
Speaker 1: For that first we've seen it.

1087
00:53:42,599 --> 00:53:45,559
Speaker 2: WITH trades, i mean even Happened With luka doncic was

1088
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,480
Maybe That nico harrison was out of, his mind but

1089
00:53:48,519 --> 00:53:51,360
he was worried about paying, this star like paying.

1090
00:53:51,159 --> 00:53:52,679
Speaker 1: This amount of money for a guy in. His, prime

1091
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,239
again that. Was unique yeah that. Was dumb yeah that.

1092
00:53:55,679 --> 00:53:57,599
Speaker 2: Was dumb but like now we've seen it now happen

1093
00:53:57,639 --> 00:53:59,920
a few times with trade values or even trades that

1094
00:54:00,119 --> 00:54:03,280
haven't happened Because Oh, John moran, LaMelo ball they're still

1095
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:05,039
On the hornet's not that those teams were actively, shopping

1096
00:54:05,079 --> 00:54:07,920
then but doesn't seem like these mega offers were out there.

1097
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:09,360
For them the Fact That trey young was On the

1098
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,440
hawks as long as he did speaks. To it i'm

1099
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,239
still sort of waiting for. That, first oh this is

1100
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,599
a star kind of in his he's still in.

1101
00:54:16,599 --> 00:54:18,599
Speaker 1: His prime but there was a negotiation.

1102
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,400
Speaker 2: Happening here it's not His, fun max it's that In

1103
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:24,800
between max or Even that thurston contract that He signed

1104
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,960
brunton was that, was, Different, right yeah they would have

1105
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:29,440
given him the exactly, he's.

1106
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:33,159
Speaker 1: Yeah but, like that, you're right that. Wasn't negotiation but

1107
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,119
like he took twenty two percent of, the cap that's.

1108
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:37,039
He was he.

1109
00:54:37,079 --> 00:54:39,880
Speaker 2: Took them he took the max he could, on well

1110
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,280
he could, have waited, and god he could. Have, waited yeah, You're,

1111
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:48,360
RIGHT like i THINK every nba team just applauded Like

1112
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,840
what jalen did because that's that's what they're hoping to

1113
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,039
see out of a lot. Of players, it's, just, oh

1114
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:57,559
oh like my primary guy is accepting like twenty two

1115
00:54:57,639 --> 00:54:58,639
twenty three percent of the.

1116
00:54:58,679 --> 00:54:59,280
Speaker 1: Salary cap.

1117
00:54:59,639 --> 00:55:02,039
Speaker 2: THAT'S so i think that was unique though in this

1118
00:55:02,159 --> 00:55:07,000
sense of one they employ, his dad and then two

1119
00:55:07,519 --> 00:55:10,880
he came from just his career arc was not the Same.

1120
00:55:11,559 --> 00:55:14,440
As trey It's like trey was billed as THIS all

1121
00:55:14,559 --> 00:55:17,800
nba talent from, the Jump and brunson not that he stumbled,

1122
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:21,360
into stardom but he could him more so than some

1123
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:23,559
of these other guys can look at it and worry

1124
00:55:23,599 --> 00:55:26,800
about the floor for falling out from, Underneath him like

1125
00:55:27,199 --> 00:55:29,800
What if i'm just a bad season away from perception.

1126
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:35,079
Speaker 1: Completely flipping this is ALSO why i didn't love The darn, fox,

1127
00:55:35,119 --> 00:55:39,599
Extension honestly like that was a lot of money for

1128
00:55:39,679 --> 00:55:41,480
someone who is quickly, approaching.

1129
00:55:41,519 --> 00:55:46,960
Speaker 2: THIRTY right i wonder if now context matters. With everything

1130
00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:50,119
the fact that you don't have To like wemby isn't

1131
00:55:50,119 --> 00:55:52,320
going to be more expensive until the season. After next

1132
00:55:52,639 --> 00:55:55,599
so now you've already ticked off what two years of

1133
00:55:55,599 --> 00:55:58,599
That dearon fox extension by then when you start to get,

1134
00:55:58,639 --> 00:56:00,400
more expensive is that right?

1135
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: Or wrong there's only one year because you, only, oh sorry. One,

1136
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,800
year yes. You're right So when wempy's new deal hits

1137
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:11,480
in twenty seven, Twenty eight fox will be rarting almost fifty,

1138
00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,320
Four million that will jump to fifty, eight million and

1139
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,880
then chop out at sixty almost sixty.

1140
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:20,599
Speaker 2: Two million but you get kind of two years Because

1141
00:56:20,599 --> 00:56:23,159
so wemmy gets more expensive and then so you have

1142
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:25,239
a little bit of time so it's like that situation can.

1143
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:26,880
Game it but you could certainly look at year three

1144
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,800
and four, and, go oh cast, hold exactly we'll be

1145
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:33,039
more expensive by That point harper as well by the

1146
00:56:33,119 --> 00:56:33,320
end of.

1147
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:34,360
Speaker 1: That, deal yeah but.

1148
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:36,840
Speaker 2: Maybe they've timed it just right to where you might

1149
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,880
have one or two years because if he's an expiring

1150
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,679
contract in theories at least easier. To move so there

1151
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:45,119
might be just be one or two. Awkward years but that's,

1152
00:56:45,159 --> 00:56:48,159
the exception that's not. The rule this perfect exactly uniquely

1153
00:56:48,199 --> 00:56:51,159
built to and it's also just maybe we've seen It.

1154
00:56:51,159 --> 00:56:55,320
With houston they negotiated every single Like With, Durant Alprin

1155
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:59,039
Shangun Jabari, smith junior nobody just came in there and

1156
00:56:59,079 --> 00:56:59,559
got like all.

1157
00:56:59,599 --> 00:57:03,559
Speaker 1: His money, all right it's a, good play you. Have

1158
00:57:03,639 --> 00:57:06,760
to and here's the thing that people don't seem, to

1159
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,400
understand because a lot of people, are, saying oh, you

1160
00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:12,960
know the salary cap. Keeps increasing, you know players are

1161
00:57:13,039 --> 00:57:15,239
just earning so much more raw money now than why

1162
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,320
should players care about the cap percentage and. Et cetera

1163
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:21,880
there's a level of truth, to that, for sure but

1164
00:57:22,159 --> 00:57:25,840
that's not really why teams are trying to. Avoid this

1165
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,000
it's because of. The aprons it's just important to get that.

1166
00:57:28,079 --> 00:57:30,840
Out there it's it's the aprons that are just handcuffing

1167
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:35,280
teams to a perverse degree and not in a. Fun

1168
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:39,199
way so we're looking at a situation where these teams

1169
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:43,400
just have to find a way to, make themselves, you

1170
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:48,400
know competitive year, after year and if you're going into

1171
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:51,039
your third year of being over the, second apron, for

1172
00:57:51,079 --> 00:57:54,199
example you're pretty. Much screwed there are not a lot.

1173
00:57:54,239 --> 00:57:56,719
Speaker 2: Of, it yeah it's not even it's it's not even

1174
00:57:56,760 --> 00:57:59,360
so much about, the money but the roster building restrictions

1175
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:02,639
is down to at, that point frozen, draft picks picks

1176
00:58:02,639 --> 00:58:04,159
being moved at the end of the, first, round, which

1177
00:58:04,199 --> 00:58:06,800
honestly do you think we will ever see that that

1178
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,079
a team will stay in The? Second APRIL that i

1179
00:58:09,159 --> 00:58:11,400
kind of just feel like that's. THE taboo i don't

1180
00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:13,679
care whether you think it's gonna Be the Thunder or

1181
00:58:13,719 --> 00:58:17,000
boston that's gonna. Do it that feels that feels like.

1182
00:58:17,079 --> 00:58:20,199
A line i don't know that any team is gonna

1183
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:20,760
if there was a.

1184
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:24,159
Speaker 1: Just emotionally it feels like, you can't.

1185
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:28,239
Speaker 2: Right because Maybe the thunder own enough of other teams's

1186
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,920
drafts that, they're like you, know what, it's FINE but i.

1187
00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:34,000
Speaker 1: Don't, know yes, it's, grew, yeah no BUT but i

1188
00:58:34,079 --> 00:58:36,079
mean it's just to put a bow on it in

1189
00:58:36,159 --> 00:58:39,239
terms of like the. Salary commitments and, LIKE again i

1190
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:42,639
think going Back to brunson, FOR example i think he

1191
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:46,239
too acknowledged like this is a ton, of Money like

1192
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,519
i'm Never getting i'm never gonna go broke oft off

1193
00:58:49,519 --> 00:58:49,719
of this.

1194
00:58:50,239 --> 00:58:54,639
Speaker 2: RIGHT back i JUST like i hate shifting that responsibility onto,

1195
00:58:54,639 --> 00:58:56,440
the PLAYERS though i do because.

1196
00:58:56,159 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 1: It's yes because of. The, billionaires yeah.

1197
00:58:58,639 --> 00:59:01,480
Speaker 2: At the, same time at the, same time to be,

1198
00:59:01,599 --> 00:59:05,079
completely fair this is collectively bargained and so it is

1199
00:59:05,079 --> 00:59:07,920
on the players to something this is what your, representation

1200
00:59:08,039 --> 00:59:11,119
negotiated and if you want to be on a, sustainable

1201
00:59:11,119 --> 00:59:15,920
contender something Like What jalen brunson did signed. An extension

1202
00:59:16,159 --> 00:59:19,000
but even it has to be something Different Than jalen

1203
00:59:19,039 --> 00:59:20,119
brunson because he still.

1204
00:59:20,119 --> 00:59:21,400
Speaker 1: Took it wasn't he.

1205
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 2: Didn't wait he Signed a matt what WAS a max

1206
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:25,960
extension for him rather than waiting to get more money in,

1207
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,360
free agency it has to be a what is the,

1208
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:32,199
player That Like, anthony edwards is eligible for more, and

1209
00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:34,920
active like in the moment it takes less. Type deal

1210
00:59:35,039 --> 00:59:37,159
not advocating, for That but, i'm wondering is that where

1211
00:59:37,159 --> 00:59:40,079
all this? Is, now hey so we're talking about stars

1212
00:59:40,119 --> 00:59:42,480
that are kind of being squeezed out Of the? Max

1213
00:59:42,519 --> 00:59:44,480
tire are there going to be names that you would

1214
00:59:44,559 --> 00:59:47,199
pay but they're gonna look, AND say i want to

1215
00:59:47,199 --> 00:59:49,119
be on a team that's relevant and don't want to have,

1216
00:59:49,159 --> 00:59:51,679
To move i'm gonna need to. Take less we're still

1217
00:59:51,719 --> 00:59:53,760
sort of waiting for that right, TO happen.

1218
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:56,239
Speaker 1: I think, I mean i'm thinking about this more from the,

1219
00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:59,719
Team perspective like there's a guy whose extension is gonna.

1220
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:01,639
Kick in The fun max is going to kick in

1221
01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:05,239
this Summer where, i'm, like okay YOU know i can

1222
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:08,599
sort of see It Power, ben carrol like when he's

1223
01:00:08,719 --> 01:00:12,000
up for like A real max if that, ever comes

1224
01:00:12,039 --> 01:00:14,760
if he's good enough to, earn that which that remains to.

1225
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:16,000
BE seen i think some.

1226
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 2: People, might argue we're not even sure if he's going

1227
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:19,280
to be on A. Fun max it could be a

1228
01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:20,480
not So fun, Max.

1229
01:00:21,199 --> 01:00:24,039
Speaker 1: Exactly like that's that's. THE deal i. Don't want that's that's.

1230
01:00:24,039 --> 01:00:26,000
A problem i don't want, To have like if he

1231
01:00:26,159 --> 01:00:29,239
has a lot of like raw stats and fancies himself

1232
01:00:29,239 --> 01:00:32,480
a superstar in twenty nine thirty looking for, An extension

1233
01:00:34,719 --> 01:00:37,800
i'm just probably trying to get out of The polab,

1234
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:41,840
carrol business which which that's still he's still young enough

1235
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:45,800
to where. You him, but again, YOU know i mean

1236
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,400
the tendencies right now they are not really trending the.

1237
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:50,400
Right direction there are a lot of. Issues there my

1238
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:54,800
point is just there, are these as, you said these

1239
01:00:55,679 --> 01:00:59,239
stars who aren't superstars where you kind of have to

1240
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:02,639
figure out what is the real? Value here, like again

1241
01:01:02,679 --> 01:01:04,679
we're talking about forty five million a Year For, tree

1242
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:08,800
young a guy who was dangerously close at having a

1243
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:10,639
season where he was averaging thirty.

1244
01:01:10,639 --> 01:01:14,159
Speaker 2: And ten, even so this would be a good example of,

1245
01:01:14,199 --> 01:01:16,039
a name especially because of the year. He's having let's

1246
01:01:16,079 --> 01:01:18,360
say he is two years or three years younger whenever he.

1247
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,079
Signed it he's having the season he's having, right now

1248
01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:23,719
and he's he's still that age when he initially signed.

1249
01:01:23,719 --> 01:01:31,400
Speaker 1: A Deal is Boston giving Jaalen? The? Supermax oh. They shouldn't?

1250
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,440
Speaker 2: They should that's the thing, is like that's if you're,

1251
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:37,360
not willing then how many of these players would be

1252
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:38,320
like five.

1253
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:42,159
Speaker 1: To seven i'm not, probably, yeah yeah.

1254
01:01:42,199 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 2: THAT'S yeah, I mean i don't even want to say.

1255
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:46,800
Speaker 1: That's insane its kind of just is what. It is

1256
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:47,559
but it's kind of.

1257
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:50,639
Speaker 2: Bonkers to think that if This Was jalen brown two,

1258
01:01:50,679 --> 01:01:52,719
years ago so we're not gonna try to factor the

1259
01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:53,760
age change.

1260
01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 1: In here you were, just no can't. Do, THAT yeah

1261
01:01:57,119 --> 01:01:59,559
i DON'T think. I could i DON'T think. I could and,

1262
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:03,719
You're right and it's that is THE new nba that

1263
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:06,199
we have to navigate in and that, is difficult by,

1264
01:02:06,199 --> 01:02:09,280
the way that is. NOT easy i under this is

1265
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:11,679
SOMETHING that, i think, you know people like YOU and

1266
01:02:11,719 --> 01:02:14,480
i who cover the league and who have podcasts and

1267
01:02:14,519 --> 01:02:17,480
who write like this is something that we probably should

1268
01:02:17,519 --> 01:02:19,840
spend more, time on just in terms of like fans

1269
01:02:20,679 --> 01:02:24,679
following the league and reading free agency news and may not,

1270
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,480
you know be as geey about the salary cap as YOU.

1271
01:02:27,559 --> 01:02:31,679
AND i i completely understand my fans react that the

1272
01:02:31,679 --> 01:02:34,480
way that they do sometimes when they hear these major

1273
01:02:34,519 --> 01:02:38,039
contracts and then you have us idiots sitting behind a mic, and,

1274
01:02:38,079 --> 01:02:41,199
go well that was actually. Below value how could you

1275
01:02:41,239 --> 01:02:44,000
ever settle for only two hundred and? TEN million i

1276
01:02:44,519 --> 01:02:47,079
understand why that line of, thinking now because the solar

1277
01:02:47,159 --> 01:02:50,960
cap just just exploded over the. Past DECADE like i

1278
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,800
understand why that, sounds crazy but like we really have

1279
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,280
to think in terms of, Cap Percentage Like keith smith

1280
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:58,760
has been hammering this for. A, year YEAH and i,

1281
01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:01,079
THINK right i Do think I'll Give hardwood.

1282
01:03:01,119 --> 01:03:03,320
Speaker 2: Knox credit like that's how we tried to frame a lot.

1283
01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:06,079
Of things but we're also reaching a, point though where

1284
01:03:06,119 --> 01:03:08,000
it transcends that a, little bit because you have to

1285
01:03:08,039 --> 01:03:11,320
look at the broader salary picture of, these aprons and

1286
01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:13,559
that's something we could all probably do a. BETTER job,

1287
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:16,159
i mean fuck. That though how long did it take

1288
01:03:16,159 --> 01:03:17,559
for YOU and i to get A hold and like

1289
01:03:17,599 --> 01:03:20,079
we're cap dorks and so it's just. This stuff and

1290
01:03:20,119 --> 01:03:22,480
it's ALSO why i understand when fans are just like,

1291
01:03:23,159 --> 01:03:24,639
they now they're at the point they don't want to

1292
01:03:24,639 --> 01:03:26,960
pay attention to it BECAUSE the nba has twisted itself

1293
01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:30,840
into a pressol making these functional. Logistics absurd, but yeah

1294
01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:32,920
it's this is a very real thing that seems like,

1295
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:35,000
it's happening And so i'm gonna be interesting to track it,

1296
01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,199
moving forward perhaps now more so. Than ever do you

1297
01:03:38,239 --> 01:03:41,360
have anything else here or are you ready to tell, the,

1298
