Things are moving fast guys!
Latest reports are the Kings have found a 3rd team and made their offer for DeRozan. Now it's on him to accept. And rumors are he's choosing between the Kings & LA Clippers.
If anything breaks, we will have another podcast for you tonight.
Trade Huerter and Slawson to Bulls for both Demar DeRozan and Dalen Terry.
Slawson is not on the King's roster@@JohnnyPdarosa4
No surprise, Detroit Pistons has cap space. DeRozan is from LA. Lakers will swoop in offers Dlow😮
Another horseshoe thrown, @mattgeorgesac? Which will be close, but not a ringer?
😎Kings try if Bulls do 3 team trade with pistons, Bulls get Huerter &Duarte &kings get DeRozan &Tory Craig &pistons get Barnes& Kessler or Slawson or Skal or Mason Jones to Pistons &kings get Chimez Metu & isaiah Stewart🤔
As a bulls fan if you guys land DeMar you would be a serious contender to come out of the west. The guy is an automatic bucket and can carry you in a drought. We are in a rebuild so I understand why we aren’t bringing him back. Good luck Kings!!!!!!
No we won’t. He will be 35 in August (I believe?)
His game doesn't rely on speed to score. He's crafty, amazing at drawing fouls, he can slow the game down. He will still be effective for a few more years and if he isn't it's not the end of the world his contract is pretty damn good and we won't have to give up any future assets. Think about the bigger picture. He will be on a 3 year contract, by the end of that he will probably be too old and we don't need to resign him. @@Dweller415
That’s awesome bro! ✊
No. Stop. DeRozan becomes Defrozen during the playoffs 😂
@@johnpaul8938he would be the second guy just in case he has a bad game we have fox and if Keegan hot we can go to him demar would help us a lot
Matt, Team De Mar! He takes everything seriously and takes care of his body. He is extremely dependable. This man is about buckets and frethrows!!!
Good take ✊
Exactly
Nah, Kuzma fit the style but that doesn't necessarily mean he's a better player. Look, Barnes and Huerter fit the style too, that doesn't mean they're great. Kuzma is the same...he's no difference than Barnes....doesn't play or couldn't play defense. The statistics back up what I said about Kuzma. He may be slightly better than Barnes or Huerter but it doesn't mean anything if you don't play defense...which is what the Kings needed.
Whenever Barnes scored 20+ kings lit the beam! The consistency of Derozan is immaculate. Starting to like the Derozan talk more and more, make this one happen mann
U know ball
Ppl underrate a 25 5 and 5 guy that plays 78+ games at 34. Not to mention, 2 clutch players of year on the same team
!!!!! Facts him & fox two of the most clutch in the league
Love your passion Matt. You deserve the Kings making a big move. Being a Mavs fan I know how frustrating it is when small market teams can't get the best available options and how great it is when it does happen
That's what is great about the new cba. Makes it easier for small market teams to get players.
Bulls fan. DeMar is still elite. He’s better than Thompson IMO. He’s efficient and dependable. Not sure why other teams haven’t grabbed him.
U know ball
Damnn y’all actually did it, great move for demar. As a raptor fan ill be supporting sac town this year! Go kings!!!
Another good vid Matt, thanks!
DeRozan is better than Kuzma in every phase of basketball
EVERY PHASE
Defense?
Why not both DeRozan and Kuma? Derozen would take huerter n second round picks, kuzma could take Barnes and a few first round picks. Can add filler to make it work but I think that could work
Hands down what I have been saying!!
We gonna get derozan and kuzma
Not both
Trade Huerter for Kuzma
Great pick up. Derozen still allows cap flexibility to get a Kuzma at the trade deadline.
I hate that concept of the mid range being a bad shot. Mid range is needed in playoffs and close games.
I hope we can get him. He's a great player.
I’ve been saying since early last season-what this Kings team is missing is exactly DeMar DeRozan! The prospect of adding a player of his caliber on offense would fill the gaping hole in the Kings roster: a legitimate bucket getter. Fox can’t do it all on his own and though Monk was great in his own right, DeMar is so much more consistent and his basketball IQ is possibly the most underrated aspect of this whole prospective addition. I would low key compare his impact on this Kings team to Kawhi on the Raptors (ironically the guy DeMar was traded for). Kings need DeMar!
It would be great to get Kuzma too.
why is it so much for this team to get a frontline player? Are we gonna have to see Sabonis get used and abused because our coach put out another weak lineup.
I agree with you. One long-shot to consider, Isaiah Chapman, Kings' new 2-way player, who was DPOY of Conference USA and has incredible defensive highlights. Chapman ranked second in the NCAA in Stocks percentage (steals + blocks) last year. Chapman shot 41pct from 3, is 6'6 with a 7'1 wingspan and 10"+ hands. Watch him in the California Classic!!
@@SapphicTwist will chapman be in the summer league? this kid adonis arms seems worthy of a consideration but i think hes a SF/SG
Derozan in my opinion on this team is the best of all trade candidates.
U know ball
I also wonder what bucks are doing with there starting 2 guard. Beasley is gone. If we can get portis out of there instead of Kuz . Heurter and Keon. Since bucks are in need of a shooter and reliable back court defender
Demar is my number one choice. My fav all star caliber player out there
Alright DeRozan can replace Huerter and be the starting 2 guard. So now we have Fox, DeRozan, Keegan, (need a legitimate PF), and Sabonis at the 5. This should work.
Maybe a Bobby Portis type at the 4. That lineup is a legit problem.
Think Portis is on a super cool contract 4 or 5 million a year. Actually he is getting robbed for his production and toughness.
DeRozan is a 3….
Nah demar will be at the 3
Brother, firstly demar plays sf, and would even rather play the 4 than the 2. But I think our starting lineup might need a fifth player, just a guess
Man that gametime ad segment in your video was way too long Matt i tuned out
I think kings can get Kuz along with Derozan . If Keon is in the deal with Barnes and a first rounder for Kuz. I think Keon would be the icing on the cake where wizards can’t turn it down. As much as I love Keon , I would rather keep a first round pick . Whether we use that pick or trade it in the long run. Wizards wanted Davion Mitchell but I think if they knew Keon was included it would be a no brainer
Derozan is a sf not a sg, check his positional minutes played
Correct. But if you don't move Barnes in the deal, you can start DeRozan at the 2 and still keep Keegan & Barnes on the floor with him.
Irrelevant what his position says on paper. His game is the essence of a 2. Ala Kobe McGrady . At 6'7 great size at the 2. Then you go get a Bobby Portis type at the 4.
Fox
Derozan
Murray
Portis
Sabonis. A legit problem for the league. I'd say we need another rim protector like Robert Williams type. I'd say give Dwight a call he'd said he was down.
@@terrillt426 demar can play the 2 but nah id rather him at the 3
@@jalynjones9136 Why? Murray 6'8 at the 3 is ideal derozan at 6'6 ideal at the 2. Ideal to keep Murray away from the 4 and get a 6'10 guy there at the 4 sounds groovy to me.
Why can't we do the following:
Kings get
Demar Derozan
Brandon Ingram
Bulls get
Kevin Heurter
Chris Duarte
27 1st round pick
26 2nd round pick
Pelicans get
Harrison Barnes
Nikola Vucvic
29,31 1st rd pick
27 2nd rd pick
Send it to monte
Thats a super team.
Demar & BI are redundant we don’t need BI taking shots away from demar
Demar DeChosen 1 👑
What if the third team is the wizards and it brings back kuzma lol😂
If we get DeRozan and Lauri for Huerter and Barnes, we are going to be really good. I am okay with giving up picks, but we must get those two guys. Keep Keegan no matter what. He is a two-way player like PG and Kawhi. We need players that will complement each other and the team's system. Coach Brown is known to be a defensive guy but showed in his first year that he has an offense up his sleeve. Let's stop being fans of names like Brandon Ingram, as he is not a healthy guy. It's like having a 40-year-old Michael Jordan on your roster. Be patient and be smart. This team is already good; they just need key pieces that will complement each other. The NBA is undergoing a paradigm shift towards team play. We already have stars in Fox and Sabonis; we just need to complete the puzzle of this team.
Zero chance your getting Lauri for Huerter and Barnes. Less then zero chance. Utah would be absolute fools to trade Him right now. Makes zero sense to
Maybe we can get the Bucks to give us Dame for Trey Lyles while we’re at it.
Get Both!!’
Thing is if you get kuzma and demar whos the closing lineup lol
Why not get derozen and kuzma? Totally possible
Awesome! Not super confident of the fit but can't knock DeRo who's still one of the best scorers and 4thQ/Clutch performers in the L. Almost 35 but still playing really well, and doesn't miss too much time with injuries. And for 20-25 mil, it's good value and upgrade over HB...allows them to be really competitive again until Keeg hit his prime!
He defently would help us in crunch time and also has played over 90% of the games in his career. So i like it better than ingram, can help murray grow
My rank in trade options
1 demar
2 Ingram
3 kuzma
I would rather have Ingram but both make ur team very interesting
Yes🎉
Derozen's talent level is much higher than Heurters... Nuff said. No deep analysis needed.
I hope the kings still have moves to make
That’s Dope
Debo from Compton and De’Aaron Fox’s brother from Compton. Wonder if they will ever get a chance to speak
I really think you could do both Kuz and Demar
people who wants Kuzma to kings probably don’t like Keegan to improve next season. Atleast that’s the vibes im getting. Keegan can literally replicate what Kuzma does, but more healthy and a better shooter.
The only thing that scares me is his age 35 years old when the season starts makes me very nervous!!! 😥
We should all be nervous. 35 is insane.
Look at his mpg and gp over the years… they don’t get much more durable. And has scored over 20ppg for like a decade
Age is one thing but there’s always the younger BI or Lauri who both have extensive injury and missed game issues
damn that's old for a basketball player. how about PASS!
HB is 32 ,Derozan averaged 24/5/5 last year.Huerter and Barnes together averaged that,at 32 million.
Derozan is a King!👑
I am praying this goes through... DeMar is a definite shot we have to take and hit. He is a champion and he is still an upgrade.
P.s. if they can land both DeMar and kuzma...🎉 It will be the best trade season since .. oh getting sabonis, trey and monk.
Why is there always competition around the players Kings want don't they know how to close out deals
One of the Kings reporters (I thought it was you Matt) had someone who covers the Bulls on their show who mentioned that LaVine took a huge dip on the court after Dem DeR signed with Chicago. A part of me worries about the age, a part of me worries about the fit, and a part of me thinks he hinders Keegan’s Development and prevents us from seeing the best version of Fox.
But let’s say you get Derozan for Huerter and start Malik. Derozan is an automatic 6 man of the year candidate and you can let him have the ball whenever he’s on the court. Dude i
Can play 2-4 and is a bench upgrade at 3 positions for us.
He also massively improves our ft situation in percentage and attempts per game.
Who is going to help Sabonis on the boards?
It's a great fit for sure. It'd be A real good move
I am by far a Kuzma fan in this trade but if we could get both that would be sick! Think about it I think that definitely puts us in title contention. But if we only get 1 I would prefer a bigger player at the 4, he is younger and his contract is better for the team overall. I don't think it would be a good idea to give a 3 year contract to someone who is 34 which is by far older than anyone else.
Let's gooo!!! Hopefully we can land DeRozan he'd definitely be the finishing touch to our team.
The more I think about it, derozan could really help because he makes his free throws lol
Well, it's official. Demar is a King!!
Should go.for Kuzma, he's actually pretty underrated. 3 level scorer, good on the break and on the boards.
Yes an "avg real stat" 3 level scorer... We have HB who is close...but DeMar... He's a better fit and a better value imo for a 3 year contract with the Kings.
I mean, DeRozen played sf for the bulls. So more than likely it would be Fox, Ellis, DeRozen, Murray, Sabonis.
Derozan**
But yeah I like that lineup
Definitely prefer Markinen, especially over Kuzma, because I suspect Kings would be a better rebounding team because of Markinen size IN COMBINATION WITH SABONIS REBOUNDING PROWESS. I figure more rebounding means more possessions means more scoring. Seems Markinen is a more consistent big man than is Kuzma. Then Markinen and the addition of DeRozan are massive improvements!!!
I❤DeRoZan, as a BuLLs fan I’ll miss him very much… those clutch shooting under 5mins. his Leadership and the best mid-range specialist … wow Kings Fan get excited‼️ Monk, Fox, DeRoZan, and Sabonis in the middle… scary‼️💪😎Finals baby 🏆
I like a sign and trade between Kings and Bullls
Derozen and J Cater to Kings for Kevin Hueter,Harrison Barnes and 2 second rd picks
I like DeMar, he's a hard worker and is reliable, but I still think we need better length with defense, at decent 3 point shooting. I think DeMar can work here if he chooses to lock down and shoot more 3s.
Derozan over kuzma without doubts. He gives as what we critically need atm, player that can create his own shot. And has more exp and bigger basketbal iq.
If we land derozan we should also concidering landing covington and we are good.
Also i hardly can imagine derozan playing at SG. He didnt play at that position last 5 years. He would be too slow. More of that it would remove starting role from Ellis, not only that he deserves that spot but also that would hurt our defence.
Starting unit wouldnt become bigger, and we dont know how would murry feel at PF position, but knowing that we were at 29th place on defending 3pt i think its more impotant problem on defence then size.
Man, all these reports are worthless. The kings were first in line with Kuzma, then LaVine, then Caruso, then LaVine and Caruso, then Ingram, then Markennan, now DeRozan. Yep, it shaping up to me a"run it back" kinda a year again. 😂 Let's run it bak...meanwhile the Warriors making moves left and right. 🤦♂
Don't forget Cam Johnson lol.
My feelings exactly lol
Just because Warriors are making moves doesn't mean they are good ones. Any team that adds Buddy Hield isn't winning anything
@@clytnjms and just because you're bias against buddy because he used to be a King doesnt mean he's a bad move. lol No one is saying buddy takes them back into champion contention but for the situation theyre in, they seem to be making solid moves. Do you only watch a follow the kings? jw cuz I watch and follow other teams
😎Kings try if Bulls do 3 team trade with pistons, Bulls get Huerter &Duarte &kings get DeRozan &Tory Craig &pistons get Barnes& Kessler or Slawson or Skal or Mason Jones to Pistons &kings get Chimez Metu & isaiah Stewart🤔
He doesn't fit y'all style of play at all, kuzma would be a perfect fit but good luck lol
Except He does fit & he’s much better than kuzma
@@jalynjones9136 good luck lol
Why would Kings be working on 3 team trade without knowing how much he wanted and if he would sign with them? This FO clearly doesn’t know what they are doing.
I don't understand this move he's not a threat from outside and the lane will already need to be clear for Fox or Monk. Besides he is older than even HB, expensive and what are we doing here.... what are giving up .... what would this mean for Keegan and his progress
Older, more expensive & wayyyy better than HB averaged what HB & Huerter averaged combined lol & he is a threat from outside we not gonna talk about him like he’s Ben Simmons now he can hit 3s he’s just a middy god fox & monk can both shoot & demar isn’t gonna be clogging anything while taking his middys
Demar is a awful playoff performer. A stretch 5 rim protection makes better sense to defeat OKC/Pells
He’s actually not u don’t know ball
@@jalynjones9136 Go look @ his and Lowery playoff stats. My eye test during this duo years. Ignorance is bliss
Demar Derozan is turning 35 and his game will fall off a cliff like all aging stars. You don’t want to be the team left owing the bag when it happens.
Led the league in minutes last year. Top 3 clutch last 3 years, finishing 2nd behind Curry last year. Played in 93% of career games. He is a HOOPSTER!
U sound so dumb
Derozan for Barnes and Carter and 2 future 2nds
Sabonis/Lyles/Len
Murray/McDaniels
Derozan/Duarte
Huerter/Ellis
Fox/Monk
Top 3 seed in the west imo
In a 98-97 game with :07 left, I want kuzma on the floor for defense. Kings have plenty of offense
He was born and raised in Compton. Why would he choose Kings over Clippers?
25 million... No thanks, go for Kuzma.
Derozan for a couple M’s more is worth. He’s a lot better player than Kuz, efficiency and IQ wise alone. Leadership and intangibles too.
@@johannm5168 no doubt DeRozan is a great player, but his age and money worry me if this is the only trade. Either way we improve. We need Keegan to step up now and hopefully Keon also gets better.
Bulls don't want to take on salary, need a third team (Pistons?)
I love demar but the idea of 3 years with an increasing salary is scary
DeRozan is 2X All-NBA and 6X All Star. Talent costs money.
We need size and he his older, his scoring will take away from keegan development as a volume shooter, I like big mark from utah over kuzma and dero
A allstar/MVP defines a "BIG MOVE" Fox for Clutch Curry for a chip. GSW Owner thinks "No Rebuild"
I would say the kings don't necessarily have to trade for anyone. Remember the mavericks traded at the deadline midway or so through the season. Why not see what happens. They already have done a lot. Don't discount what they have done. A steal of the draft, a big guy who hasn't had time to play, trading off some players, signing Munk, still have many developmental players that need time on the court to get better.
They need a little mixup. Things got stale a little bit. This would give the team a spark and invigorate Fox
And the crowd goes mild
No! That guy will be 35 before the season starts.
The Kings just can’t land young impact players.
Derozan is like rudy gay all over again. Iso ball no defense just scorer only..
Y’all say anything, when did Rudy ever average 20+ for 11 years straight?? When was Rudy ever as clutch as demar?? Stop it dude
If they just get 2 second rounders Chicago will be a bigger joke than they have already become.
If they play off of Derozan he is just going to step in and hit the middy.
👍 ❤
We still don’t have a PF next to Sabonis. Play in team at best
Trey Lyles needs to be the starting power forward.
We need a Center..Sabonis is a PF, not a Center..
@@VillaWolf24 they have to be a shooting tall big like lauri
Trade Huerter and Slawson to Bulls for both Demar DeRozan and Dalen Terry.
Some guy named Keegan Murray has started at PF the past two years. Ever heard of him???? Ahhaah
Deebo!
Hell nah Demar is a clippers
Your facts are mixed up Matt. Derozan is a better defender than Kuzma. Derozan def rating=118 Kuzma=120.1 We don't need Kuzma, he doesn't improve this team whatsoever. He belongs in Washington where he can continue to cherry pick and play the star on a losing team. Just let the man get paid and lose in peace why don't you???
Old man Derozen cant defend too well and we still dont have a wing we need someone w more height to actually make a diffrence
If u don’t think demar would make a difference u just don’t know basketball
This feels like a desperation move. He’s 35 and is more of a shooting guard, not the long and athletic wing they need. Sadly the Kings can’t do better this offseason.
He's literally long (6'6" w 6'9" WS) and athletic and has been playing wing for 3 seasons 🤦🏽
Pg is 35 also would u not want him? lol a “desperation move” y’all don’t be knowing basketball at all
@@cqaguilarwhy has he been playing shooting guard?
@@jalynjones9136Paul George is 34 and still an elite player. DeRozan is not IMO.
@@Chudley716 Paul George gets paid more than Double and misses an average of 20 games More than Deebo. Rather the availabilty on a team that doesnt need him to be the 1st option.
And DeRozan has actually been splitting time between SF and PF for the Bulls, Barely playing SG. Probably says more about the Bulls than DeRozan. But he hasnt been an SG since his Toronto days.
Nobody wants a 35-year-old non-shooter
He's a walking bucket, especially in the 4th he's clutch
Do you think that DeRozan can be to the Kings as Iggy was to the Warriors?
The great dynasties (my definition is 3 titles in 5 years) main stars of the NBA have all broken a certain narrative about the sport.
Bill Russell- You can't win with a defensive oriented center and you can't win with a black guy as your main star.
Larry Bird and Magic Johnson- you can't win with a non center as your best player.
Michael Jordan- you can't win with a score first guard
Kobe and Shaq- you can't win with friction between teammates
Tim Duncan- you can't win if you're boring
Steph Curry- you can't win as a 3pt shooter
Fox- you can't win as a mid range shooter? 🤔
If the Kings can somehow get Ingram or Kuzma AND DeRozan, hold on to your seats, because I think that propels this team to its first ring in 74 years and POSSIBLY a new dynasty.
Don’t ever compare ight to demar wtf
@jalynjones9136 Please explain your viewpoint and why the harsh response? I'm addressing it as a potential outcome, a maybe, a hypothetical not as a certainty.
The Bulls want Huerter
Good 😂
Demar is going to Spurs… no middle or high tier player would join the Kings if they really get to choose… Sac is a big village, almost no nba player wants to go live there… MB will play HB once again this season and i can bet that the Kings won’t make the playoffs…
Tomorrow: "kings were close to trading for demar derozan"
I hope they keep Huerter. He is much better for what the Kings' offense needs. I mean, if they can keep Kevin and still get DeMar, I still believe that the Kings' roster is good. But to be great, they just need to add key pieces. They don't need a Paul George-type name; they need an Aaron Gordon-type player, a key piece.
I agree, if I had to pick I’d trade HB. I like HB but his age was really starting to show last season and I don’t see that getting any better.
Demar is a Paul George type name
First
No sound yet.
And fixed!
Wow, first? You sound like a 10 year old, yet very much an adult judging by your photo
If the Kings were a finished product looking for some reliable scoring help? Maybe a high level 6th Man type? I'd say good move. However thats not the case. So, sideways move with a bit of an upward slant at best. DeMar is solid, hard worker, good guy. Will help win you some games. He's not a fixer, though. And shouldn't be a primary closer on a team with serious aspirations.
Demar is a 6 time All star who is incredibly durable to this point in his career. Top 3 Clutch POY 2 years in a row and averaged 24ppg last season. He's not a 6th man or Role player like you make him sound. Jesus he's a huge talent and veteran leadership upgrade and won't cost us our picks.
He's too old now. Kings need to pass and find someone younger.
There's no better young shooting guard available. Derozan will still make Kings better than if they kept Huerter
Hes still a beast at 35
I don’t understand the age thing when he’s still elite lol
3 unprotected firsts, Barnes,Murray and Devon Carter for B.I seem pretty fair
Bruh…..hell no
Yeah, fair for the pelicans 🤣
