@@robertlevy2420 Hey Robert thanks for the comment. I agree as that is a key addition for the Celtics last year to win the championship. Jrue Holiday is the perfect player for any championship aspiring team. This year Paul George for the Sixers here is the closest comparison, I’m not saying he’s better/worse or more successful than Holiday but when looking at the options this year he is the closest to a Jrue Holiday like player/impact signing. I like the signings/resigning (mainly Caleb Martin, Kelly Oubre) for depth purposes in case of injury and they have more options than being top heavy and banking on their big 3. I appreciate your input Robert!
If the Warriors only see having the Curry/Markkanen duo for a few years, Markkanen would be available to trade away again to recoup assets pending where they want to go after Curry is done.
Only STUPID gsw fans or gsw haters/bronsexuals would want this trade to happen. Move on folks. Think of another content instead of continuously hyping this old lame topic. Too many youtubers and in the media just keep repeating themselves to hype the simpletons.
That pick is not worth it. The Warriors are trying to go all the way out for this player on Utah. And he's not even worth it. It's a waste of time if they receive him today. There's still not going to be a championship team point blank. And that's a fact, so why give up all your best young players? That's going to make the warriors so much better in the future. 41 player that ain't gonna make a difference with the warriors at all, because at the end of the day, you're going home next year, regardless
@@Nohesitone214 hey bro, thanks for the comment! I agree he’s not worth all that Utah’s asking for, I believe they are asking for that either to indicate that they don’t want to trade Lauri, or that they want to get a Brooklyn Nets/Rudy Gobert traded for like package for a deal to be done. The Warriors have more issues to resolve and giving up the farm is not in their best interest at this point.
@@user-ub2id7ie2l At this point, with the Lakers desperate for moves, and starting to get tired of LeBron’s antics, you never know they might take on GS’s depth and send the James’s to GS so that ownership can have full power again and not let LeBron dictate every move he wants. LeBron has shown massive interest in playing with Steph Curry, so you can’t rule anything out.
@@stevenallenmay1687 Hey thanks for the comment Steven! I hear you, the Jazz is asking a lot for a player unproven in the playoffs, so it’s probably best for the Warriors to look elsewhere for a star player to trade for.
@@ADintheClutch nope. jazz not even started yet. warriors are thin in players and draft picks. they and their fans just dont want to admit.let see the trade market nowadays. djounte murray nets ATK 2 1st, AND for lauri jazz should ask for more. at least 3unprotected 1st, do warriors have enough? warriors fans are dellusion hoping the jazz would take wiggins for lauri. that is theproblem. jazz go not want kuminga, moody they are nobody not even starter for warriors if jazz take them, they have to extend them with expensive contractm afterthis season , not even the warrions willing to give big contract (average starter contract) around 25m a year because they are not good enough. only warriors fans are delusional about their potential. to me none of them have any trade value at all in any trade, let alone dealing with tough nego like ainge. the thing is warriors re desperate, on lauri there is nobody left in the market the warriors could afford .. this is due to hi low salary meaning warriors do not need to include wiggins or draymond any deal with any one of this guy abd their contract will automatically rejected. Jazz might want at least 3 unprotected 1st. teams like spurs could offer 3 unprotected 1st and let say add a top-10 protected, lotterey protected, few swaps to sweeten the pot. can warriors match that? w/o widggins, draymond, with kuminga moody considered has no trade value? iwarriors and their fans shoulf stop blaming the jazz if tjazz would not accept warriots low offer. to prove my point let say spurs offer the jazz their unprotrected 1st in 2025, 2027, 2029 bulls top-10 protected in 2025, hornets lottery protected in 2025 , mavs unprotrcted swap in 2030.tre jones, cissoko, champangne, as filler, ( i think zach collins better filler he is also owed 18m next year jazz would not like to take that. he is a better player than john collins). what would warriors offer to match that? if you cant match that, stop the bs and forget about lauri.
@@LeFraicheLC I appreciate the comment my guy! We all make mistakes, and have different opinions. I respect your opinion, so how would you handle the situation if you work for the Pelicans?
@@ADintheClutch I don’t work for them either but Brandon can be traded for an actual starting center. One that could defend and stretch the floor. Maybe another wing piece or picks but yea he doesn’t have to stay. Dejounte can replace him just fine. TM3 also
Just to follow up on this opinion.. BI is a great guy and I hope he lands on the right team. He has not PRODUCED PLAYOFF WINS in the 5 years he's been on the Pels. Not sure how you can compare him to Zion, when he is just as injured (see last two years) and has consistently not produced any playoff series wins. He couldn't even win the dam In Season Tournament, where both he and Zion were complete trash. Add to that his defiance of shooting 3 pointers , shaky defensive efforts, and slow offensive iso game. The Pels are justified in not paying him a max deal. Derozan is at 25 mil a year. BI wants 50 mil. They are the same player!!!!
@@yonh8294 Makes sense, New Orleans are in a position where they have to choose between the two sooner or later, under the new CBA, so that’s why I went with my opinion. But everything you said is true.
He’s not a number 1 he’s had his chances Zion has been injury but when he’s but he’s a way more talented player the team plays better with Zion if he’s health the chance is worth it BI is not the guy and never will be if they trade Zion there a lottery team I promise u that Oklahoma showed you that nobody double Brandon Ingram one on one that’s a number one option???
@@gabrielridley3052 Hey Gabriel, thanks for your comment! I completely understand and agree that Zion is way more talented than BI, my concern is that Zion doesn’t play as much or isn’t committed as it took a bunch of stipulations and incentives just to get him to play and be serious. BI has been the stable, more consistent option and he’s 26 he’s still really young and entering his prime; he can learn and get better from this playoffs. With Zion, I’m concern that he may very possibly get injured again and/or have other drama stories off the court and now the Pelicans are trapped with Zion/have to trade him for dimes on the dollar. I do not see this lasting long well with Zion as it has been known he/his family doesn’t want him in NOP. For me there is a lot of concerns with Zion that’s why I went that route. But everything you said is valid and I respect and understand your opinion my guy!
@@ADintheClutch i’m from Boston, but not a Celtic fan 🤣 I hated to see them win the championship I want the pelicans so bad. And remember Zion is young It starts with him, but also he needs guidance. I believe Murray is the start of it the kid has heart ❤️ Sometimes you need the right people around you to help you get to where you want to be. The kid has the talent And it is very rare that a place like New Orleans got lucky enough to get somebody like that it doesn’t happen he is the key they need to build around him and he will definitely see I love Brandon Ingram, but you can see where they’re both on the floor two different teams He doesn’t make the guys around him better BI when Zion is out there playing point guard to different team I seen it in the Golden State game Troy Murphy CJ McCollum, those guys were getting shots because of his gravity
Keep pushing brother! I was in the same spot about 2 years ago, one day you're going to Blink and get those thousand subscribers. Keep pushing my friend
Jeremy Sochan didn't run point guard after like the first quarter of the season then it was all Tre jones And the team got somewhat better I thought you should know that And I think the main reason that they got CP3 is as you said they need a true floor general and somebody who's a veteran that can help Mentor to Stefan castle who has said he wants to be a point guard And be a mentor for everybody on the Spurs and kind of be a on the Court Coach for This young team and I think they could make a pretty big leap while he's there And we know CP3 won't miss any lobs Wemby I think this is a great trade And it makes me think spurs Might not tank for the 2025 draft
Thank you for your comment. I will admit that I was wrong to that. I try to focus on all the teams as much as possible. I just remembered for the Spurs it was Sochan running point early in the season and I was reading/hearing reports that teammates were jealous of him, made decent improvements as the season went on and then I focused on the contending teams to make reports on. I will do better next time, thank you for clarifying for me.
@@ADintheClutch There's no jealousy in the Spurs it's just the players none of them have ever played point guard except for Tre Jones and they're horrible at passing most people on the Spurs really just missed him it's not even that they're jealous if you've watched a lot of Spurs you would know the team's chemistry is amazing. not saying you need to watch a lot of spurs
I get what you are saying but in my opinion the FMVP was down to Jaylen Brown or Jrue Holiday cuz those guys consistently showed up and put up good numbers whereas Tatum was up and down during the Finals.
Ok…Well I think I could win with him if you didn’t find a glitch in the game where Donovan Mitchell can dunk over three dudes and that’s all you did! By the way I noticed you didn’t ever talk about him or mention using him until after I showed you my shoes of Mitchell so I’m on to you! 👀 #all4fun
Hey what’s up my friend? While that may be true so far. The Suns have had to deal with some injuries this season. It was reported that part of why they resigned him was because of backcourt depth. In the playoffs, the Suns will probably need all that they have especially facing a team like the Nuggets potentially. Thank you for your time and comment, God bless and hope you have an awesome day.
Hey Julio, thanks for your time. I understand what you are saying, I was trying to bring some news on here, and to be honest there was not much to talk about or elaborate on as he is an average coach, and at the time of recording there were no names being mentioned as a potential replacement. I wanted to bring in some content to talk about as the playoffs are getting closer there is not much news to report on. I apologize if I wasted your time and will do better next time. Thank you for the feedback.
Thin skin, if anyone needs to have thin skin it would most definitely be referee's. How many calls have cost teams and players championships? I always believed that because of the NCAA being against Jerry Tarkanian that this cost UNLV their second championship against Duke. Very suspect calls against Greg Anthony. Later Michigan (and against UNC also) there were a lot of charges that should have been blocking fouls and vice-versa. Like the Patriots beating the Raiders when what should have been a turnover and was ruled that the quarterbacks arm was moving forward, garbage All season it had been ruled a turnover. Or when Chauncey Billups played for Colorado during the game against UNC (by the way I was a huge Tarheel fan) in which Colorado took it to those guys. Then in the second half Colorado had like 20 or more fouls and Carolina didn't commit a foul until like 8 minutes was left in the game. Legal betting on sports is a recipe for disaster. Has no one seen what happens when betting is allowed, ask Pete Rose? Man's baseball career ruined for life. Has no one watched Sunset Park the movie? How can anyone keep $tacks from ruining the games?
I wish I could say this privately … it may be embarrassing… I wish I had your ease while videoing… your pace and tone are upbeat but not too much … I might not know your subject or topic well but I’m curious enough to listen because I enjoy how you convey it. Thank you!
Hey Jeanie thank you so much for your comment! I try to on this channel cover all teams/players around the league (to the best of my abilities) in a non-bias manner to broaden my audience here. I try to approach this like a journalist trying to present the facts and/or a solution instead of having an agenda like those on TV. I appreciate your support once again, God bless you and your family, and let’s go Heat! 🔥🏀😀
Thank you so much for the comment! It was an awesome experience, I hope to see you guys soon God willing at Heat events! Thank you for your support, it was awesome meeting you and your family last year. 🔥🏀
Hey what’s up bro, thanks for the comment. I’m not saying they are a great team or a potential contender, I know they are the worst team in NBA history. What I mean by saying that “I don’t see it as a talent issue,” is that during their losing streak is that they gave up so easily mentally as a team and in my opinion they end up losing more games than they should have, leading to losing to 28 games in a row. There were multiple games where the Pistons were contending for the win. Can they and do they need more talent/star players? Of course, several players on this team are consisted of busts (Killian Hayes, Kevin Knox, used to be now Marvin Bagley). But there were several close games during the streak to which the Pistons could have easily won by simply taking advantage of the opportunities in front of them but they just quit as things got tough. That was my reasoning for that statement. Can I be wrong, of course but I wanted to analyze what was a pattern to their problems and try to come up with a solution for them to turn things around when making an opinion.
@@benfranklin1770 I totally agree with you man, there are no excuses to losing games. Like I mentioned earlier I can be wrong in sharing my opinions, because it’s an opinion or a take and will give credit where it’s due if and when I am wrong. I just see a glaring reason to why they lose too often and I’m happy that they are looking to solve this issue now instead of riding the wave and seeing no direction for this team. But once again you are 100% right the good teams find a way to win no matter what, I’m glad the Pistons now have some pieces who are capable to God willing win more games going forward by potentially closing more games under veteran leadership compared to a bunch of young guys/busts.
Hey what’s up my dude. Appreciate your reply bro! Hopefully they can flip their draft picks or remaining key players to get a star player (KAT, Lavine, Brogdon) because they need more firepower with Mitchell Robinson out for the season.
no, mitchell is still on the table. We have 8 tradeable first round picks to get him. We are still one of the top 2-3 teams to get him bc of our picks. But maybe we still trade for mitchell or go trade for dejounte murray. Maybe a allstar that is not mitchell. Maybe its not an allstar at all maube we go to mulitple quality role players. This is not the last deal we do
Hey what’s up bro! Thanks for the comment. Like I understand that you guys have a lot of picks still, but I feel to get someone like Mitchell, it would take RJ Barrett and/or Immanuel Quickley to get the deal done. It’s still possible for NY to God willing get Mitchell given the recent star trades (Lillard, Holiday) but it’s going to be a lot more difficult now because of the key players being traded.
personally i think its weird but what we do have for evidence points to her being legal and giddey was 19-20 and theres a picture of her yearbook last year and she was a sophomore so she is 16-17 most likely on the off chance it was 17 and 19 its really not that bad but even if its 16 and 20 its still technically legal but i think its just really weird
Yeah when I read the Oklahoma law that the age of consent is 16, that was something that I did not know and understand that, that will go in Josh Giddey’s favor big time if this is taken to court. It is weird and the law is the law. I just hope that the girl(s) are safe and nothing harmful was done.
Fair point, I was really concerned about the post of a 17 year old, and asking for younger girls. I made my opinions based on moral reasoning, and would wait it out to confirm, rather than playing him as if everything is normal, that is what I did not support OKC’s decision, but if he is innocent, than I will readdress it and support him to get the justice he needs.
Everyone is waiting for the Investigation to be done but truly most People are trying to figure out her age,if she was 16 and he was 19 or 20 then it was legal because 16 is the legal age over there but every other Rumor about what was said is not proof unless they have a recording but who knows he might be Guilty
Hey what’s up Christopher! Thanks for the comment. That is a great point, as those are great numbers and KD has done amazing things this season so far. To be honest, I don’t really know, obviously I don’t make the decisions, my best guess would be maybe because Fox has played in 4 games compared to KD’s 3, maybe that was the tipping point in them picking Fox over KD , as yes KD has better numbers but possibly having one more game made the difference as Fox did more than KD for the week with what’s available. I appreciate your time and insight brother.
Zack is terrible compared to Herro, Herro is literally playing better than him has more experience than him Just bc you get injured diving for a ball or land on someone elses foot dont mean you suck or should be traded. Herro is not in his prime yet and is only getting better on both sides of the floor, but nah go off bc honestly Zack is a dissapoinment.
Hey what’s up bro, thanks for your comment! I like Tyler Herro, I think he’s an amazing talent, I know he is only getting better every season, of course injuries happen and are not his fault but he has been getting injured too often at key points in the season and the team has suddenly played better without him repeatedly which has me concerned, because he is one of the Heat’s best players yet the team all around improves with him off or even coming off the beach as the year he won 6MOTY, the Heat were the 1st seed, so I question mainly the fit for Jimmy and Bam and believe Zach can be a better fit based on his desire to mainly win and not go prove a point like Herro is right now trying to be untouchable (not questioning Herro’s desire to win, just understanding different perspectives). The Heat are in win-now mode especially with Jimmy Butler running out of time, Zach can help the Heat God willing win right now on their timeline compared to Tyler Herro still developing as a star player.
What he say makes a lot of sense. Tyler Herro dose get injured at the worst moments. Getting zack would be a great move for the Miami Heat. One more thing, I still think the heat should get another center that can go toe to toe with the joker. The heat had lack size in during the Finals.
I agree 💯 on your comment about having another center to match up with Jokic. The Heat’s two main issues are: having a consistent scoring guard to get buckets to take pressure off of Jimmy and Bam, and second they lack size as we saw in the Finals. I personally believe that Bam should play at the PF position where he truly thrives whereas playing Center he is facing guys like Jokic, Embiid, and Davis and is undersized and consequently playing small ball which is becoming outdated thanks to the Nuggets this year. I’m trying to think of a Center who can go one on one with Jokic either a star vs star or even a guy having a Bill Laimbeer like role where he can get in the Joker’s head and get him in foul trouble/play extra aggressive. Right now I can’t think of anyone who can do that because Jokic imo is by far the best player in the world and no one has an answer for him yet.
I personally would like someone like Caruso on the Heat as well, he would be great for depth & defensive purposes. The thing is I don’t think the Heat have enough assets to get both players unless a 3rd/4th team is involved to make it happen.
This is nothing more then something to feed his ego, and it's going to be called dickriders, and they changed the name of the I promise school to the I failure school, which was funded by taxpayers not lebron or his charity. PS He doesnt deserve a museum
