As a Blazers fan, I am extremely worried. Chauncey seems to be valuing his resume over the franchise's future, and trade chatter has completely died out. Not trading a single vet and winning enough for the 10th pick, God forbid giving our pick to Chicago, would be catastrophic.
47:01 a unanimous Shai MVP is genuinely hilarious. How could you even ask that with Jokic having the season he’s having?! Truly they both should win, but assuming no one will vote for Jokic just because he’s won so many times recently is ridiculous.
@@ubelsimpgoal posts were never moved, just add context, and btw, in order for shai to win unanimous mvp, he needs to average 40 on the same efficiency and win 74 games, MINIMUM
The Pacers consolidation trade won't happen until the offseason. They are like 200k from the luxury tax and arent going to pass up the 20ish mill payout they get for not being a luxury team. At most they'll trade Wiseman to clear a little cap to be able to sign someone else who isnt injured. Logically it also makes sense to resign Turner before consolidating incase he signs elsewhere. Then the consolidation can happen for a Turner replacement.
37:35 I've had a very very strong Collin Sexton to Orlando agenda for the past year and a half at this point. He's a guy who's came into his own on the Jazz (even if theyre kinda bad for the past couple years), can create his own shot inside, can shoot the ball (though most of his 3's are assisted, but I feel for the prospect of playing alongside playmaking wings like Paolo/Franz that's even better) and he at least *tries* on defense, even if he has limitations due to being undersized, all while not being a big enough contract and a big enough name to be a huge problem on either the contract side or the team's offensive hierarchy. Would it fix their entire shooting problems, I don't think so, but besides Suggs and KCP the Magic backcourt capitalized italicized _SUCKS_ and Sexton might not be a flashy name like, say, Trae, or Fox, but I feel if you're gonna make an in-season acquisition that would not be supposed to ruin the teams pre-established gameplan you could do a lot worse than him if you're the Magic.
as a knicks fan i think our best acquisition at the deadline is mitch coming back. i think we see where’s he at this year and then if he can’t stay healthy trade him next season . if he can stay healthy he’s kinda the perfect big to play next to Towns
Steph and Draymond obviously have been offered a part of the team post retirement. The only reason I can see why they’d be so content about holding onto picks for the future.
I’m a rockets fan and steven adams has been playing great as of recent and if we need anything it’s another shot maker, love steven adams and he’s a very good back up 5
Kenny: So what am I gonna do? Tell DeAndre Ayton that he can't hoop no more? Go home for the next two years of your contract? Blazer fans: I mean.. 🤷♂️
You talked me into that idea of Zo to Pistons. Lonzo for THJ and 1 or 2 seconds? Pistons get someone to help on both ends of the floor and the Bulls get an extra 3-4 mil in cap space to help in a potential Lavine or Vooch trade and they also get worse which is good for their protected pick this year.
Yes, the spurs should only move in the off season. Just like they did last year, but this time they need to move some guys to pair better talent with wemby. He took a step this year and deserves the move from the front office. I don’t think another season of mid to mediocre basketball is acceptable in San Antonio But for now, continue to develop and competing
6:25 i feel like the cavs could use a backup center to give their guys some rest. maybe go get like an alex len or even if they have the flexibility go out there and get the best backup in the league in valanciunas
this comment is wild alex len hasnt averaged more than 2.5 ppg in a season for 4 seasons and he has never been good. Also valanciunas absolutely not the best backup in the league and they definitely cant make the money match
If Cleveland reduces their salary by about 1.5 million they can avoid the luxury tax. Expect them to make some move in order to do that. They could also use a back up big or athletic wing so Keep an eye on that.
I wouldn't mind Vucevic to the Grizzlies. Zach Edey will probably be good long term, but he kinda needs some more time. So getting a good starting center who can hold it down for a couple years I think would work. And the Bulls would probably want some of the good younger Grizzlies players, as much as I would hate to see them leave.
Feel like the Rockets should be in Consolidation tier. Cam Whitmore rumours of being upset at lack of opportunity, 3rd pick of the draft gets no playtime, etc Grizzlies is spot on though.
The biggest problem with the Pistons attempt to tank really came down to luck they lost the lottery for like 3 years they picked at 5 and 6 a few times as the worst / 2nd worst team in ball
53:00 Make the season shorter, less games=games mean more, more competitive games, defenses take the 3 ball more seriously and offenses won't waste possessions on 3s as much
As a life long Cavs fan. I think the Cavs really need to push for Cam. At the end of the day we want Donovan and these guys to win it all. It comes down to beating Boston. I don’t think anyone in the East can beat CLE in a home court advantage series in the playoffs. We need that guy to be able to make things a little bit harder on Tatum and Brown, they always seek to switch onto our smaller guards and wings. I know our team chemistry is off the charts but I think Can fits as that corner 3&D player, but he also can attack the hoop (which a lot of our wings cannot in a confident manner) So, with the drought BOS has been on I think it’s a huge opportunity to go all in this season while you can. I love everyone on the team but I would have to say we trade Okoro, and Niang and a 2nd rounder for Cam. (I love Okoro, but Cam is just a more polished taller verison of him)
As a Celtics fan I agree tbh, both Cavs and Thunder should be going all in because your championship window is never guaranteed. However, Cam Johnson’s asking price is a lot higher than salary and a 2nd round pick. Nets looking for 2 1sts I don’t think he gets moved for less than 1 1st round pick.

Might be tripping because I was working while listening but didn’t hear Boston. I think we are sitting tight or one of those small trades around the edges though. Nothing significant
Ik it’s not just a Kenny thing but where is this idea lakers bought in fully the past 6 years?? They constantly refuse to move picks or do the smallest moves ever and ppl act like that’s going all in. Bron and AD made it very clear last night. They pretty much said “hey rob you suck” 😭
You don’t have to make huge moves to buy in though. They bought in on Gabe Vincent 3 years 33 mill and we see how that went. Even just the whole dlo situation alone is a buy in example. They’ve traded plenty of second, and first round picks over years just to get minimal talent on the roster. Plenty more examples. It’s not the fact they haven’t bought in but they just haven’t been good at buying in.
@@cthomasd1792i definitely agree with a lot of what u said. I just feel like a lot of people act like they r going all in all the time and that’s very far from true. It’s definitely more in the middle. But ur also right the biggest issue is rob sucks at going “all in” when he actually does lol
You tweaking bruh if Jimmy go to lakers for just fillers and they keep the ad, bron , reeves core they definitely a contender jimmy is playing possum till the playoffs he is an elite contributor when it matters most
Kenny I have been rocking with you since like 2015. Please stay out of politics. You are entitled to have an opinion but I don’t watch your stuff to hear political jabs. Just stick to basketball. Please
