THIS NEWS WOULD BE RIDICULOUS



THIS NEWS WOULD BE RIDICULOUS

want to bring this up because guys, this is very silly. Very, very silly. Um, so Nets rumors and as we know, let me let me say, let me throw this out here, okay? Net’s fans in particular have been relentless as far as trying to get their hands on our second overall pick. They want that pick so bad. They want it so bad. You guys have no idea how bad they want. They want that pick as much as they want water. Much they need water. Okay. They they they are going crazy over our pick. Um and it’s only Nets fans that are advocating for it. Now, I I you can believe me. You you don’t have to, but I mean, I just wouldn’t lie to you guys. I get certain information when it comes to things. I don’t put it out there. I only do it once there’s any reporter willing to put it out there. Um because I’m just Yeah, I’m I’m just not gonna uh burn sources like that. Uh but I do hear things. Okay. And this is one that I have not heard at all. There there’s I don’t I don’t think there’s any validity to this whatsoever. And what is this? The idea that the San Antonio Spurs would give up their number two pick for Cam Johnson. I I have no idea where this come from. Let’s see. This Brooklyn Nets are reportedly exploring a trade package centered around Ford Cam J Cam Johnson in an effort to acquire the second lottery pick in the upcoming 2025 NBA draft. Let’s see. Even if we click the exploring, where does this go? Okay, this goes to a NBA Central post and then this goes to the New York Post. The fact that they didn’t just tag the original New York Post article and they tagged a Instagram post to the New York Post article is a little strange to me. and then you have to pay for the the article. I I I I don’t I don’t know. I don’t know. I haven’t heard anything when it when it came to that when it comes to that. But I I’ll I’ll address Cam Johnson in a in a minute, though. Uh, according to Brian Lewis of New York Post, Brooklyn may look at uh uh consolidate uh assets may look to consolidate assets including Johnson, multiple late first round selections, and future draft capital in pursuit of the number two overall pick currently held by the San Antonio Spurs. So yeah, so they will send Johnson, multiple late first round selections, and then future draft capital for our number two. Okay. And as we know, the Spurs already have pretty great future draft capital. Um, but moving on from that, there is a sentiment around the league that Nets could look to land a second lottery pick by consolidating the packaging. Some com combination of Johnson. Yeah. Yeah, we mentioned that Johnson, 29, is coming off a career best season with Brooklyn. Uh, his seventh. Okay, we don’t have to go through that. All right, so here here here it is. This this is this is the couple sentences that people on Twitter have ran with. So, the Spurs were reportedly open to moving the second pick with growing speculation that they are hesitant about selecting guard Dylan Harper. No idea where this comes from. No idea, guys. No idea. I have no idea. Uh the projected number two pick prospect uh adding Harper would create a crowded bat court in San Antonio, which already features rookie of the year Steph Castle and other guard talent. Other guard talent. Other guard talent. What is that other guard talent? I mean, I’m not trying to disrespect my own team. You guys know I love I love the Spurs. I love my San Antonio Spurs. But what what is this other guard talent other than Fox? Yeah, there there’s nothing pointing towards the Spurs trading their number two pick for Cam Johnson. Okay, I don’t think I should have to say that. Now, I haven’t heard this and I I haven’t asked, but you know, it could it could end up being true. Maybe, just maybe, maybe, possibly, uh, you know, just in my mind, maybe you could trade the 14th for Cam Johnson. I I could see the Spurs actually doing that, especially if you get to 14 and all your guys are kind of gone and let’s say you really want Reo, but you know that you can eventually get them later on in that in that draft, a little later in the draft. I could see the Spurs making a deal like that. I could see them doing that. But them trading away their number two pick, something that’s not going to come very often. Okay, this opportunity is not going to come very often. And this is a multi-allar type of talent that we’re talking about here. Um, I don’t think that that’s a good idea. I think that that’s actually a terrible idea. And for all this article to say is, well, they’re going to do it because, you know, they got too much talent is is just so silly. It’s just so silly. All right, we’re we’re not in a position like the Kings where all that we’re doing every single season is just getting guards, right? If if you ask me, I think we have Fox who is obviously full-time point guard. You got Steph Castle, who I think he’s a part-time point guard, and you’re going to need someone that could be more so a full-time point guard by the time Fox is ready to uh step away, which is going to be a while, but uh you’re you’re going to need somebody to transition into that role. And who else but Dylan? This is great talent here. And now that we’re getting some news that uh Chris Paul, which we’ll do another segment on that, but Chris Paul could be leaving. You need it. So, the idea that you have all this immense talent, I don’t know what what it’s coming from. I I don’t know how there’s a log jam in the in the in the back court. I think that’s silly. Um, anyways, but if you guys were worried about this, at least me personally, I haven’t heard anything. Um, every reliable source, you know, has blatantly said that the Spurs want Dylan Harper. Uh, and when it comes to stuff like this, like trading away the second overall pick, the Spurs line is open, okay? They’re going to be talking to teams. It’s going to be discussion. Um, but as you guys know, a lot of these is just smoke, right? A lot of it smoke, especially the closer you get to the draft, it’s going to be a lot of smoke. Uh, just to kind of see what the Spurs can get away with, what they can possibly finesse a team with. Um, but as far as getting giving away their second pick, I I I how the Spurs operate, I have a very difficult time seeing them do that. I mean, we we would the the only situation in which I could see the Spurs doing that, which I don’t know if I agree with it then, is if we were already a championship caliber team, right? Or, you know, we have things kind of set in stone. We have our core and we just had a really bad season plagued with injuries and you just got lucky in getting the second overall pick. If if it was something like that, sure. But you desperately need a creator next to Wimi. Uh you need a 3 and D 3 and D wing. Another 3 and D wing. Uh you need a backup big. I don’t think the Spurs are just going to be wasting their picks here. But I don’t know. Net’s super delusional. Nets fans have been on this, bro. They have been they have been relentless trying to get our second overall pick. But like I said before in a previous segment, it speaks to how good Dylan Harper is, too. So, we’re in a really great position. Um, but I I wouldn’t get hung up on this. I wouldn’t get worried. I don’t think any of this happens. So, so yeah.

  1. But this doesn’t surprise me knowing Harper going number 2 and I’m pretty sure Harper and his dad are from the area of Brooklyn

  2. Phuck the Nets! Sean Marks tried to fleece on Cam Johnson before with some ridiculous offer. After the Spurs gave him his break in the front office. Kick rocks! Give us Claxton and Johnson, and then we'll have a conversation. Fox also wanted his minutes to come down.

  3. Spurs fans took this “trying to wish it into existence” approach
    several years ago when Evan Mobley was projected to go third in the draft, and we had like 17 guards and no bigs.

    “We could easily give Cleveland Dejounte Murray and Derrick White (back when he wasn’t Derrick White) and our No. 12 pick.

    That type of thinking is born of desperation.

  4. The spurs our waiting on Giannis decision like all the other teams, nothing gonna happen until afterwards

  5. "A second lottery pick" not "The 2nd lottery pick". They just want to trade for any pick that is in the lottery which includes 14 – 3 as well (At least according to the first article)

  6. Don't screw it up like they did with haliburton. Don't need Giannis either. They can get free agents they need for a big or a shooter. Got plenty of second round picks and players to get rid of ie: brannum, bassey,champenny, even vassell. Chris Paul is probably bailing.cmon, don't overthink it.

  7. Honestly the only kind of trade back I’d consider would be from 2-7 and getting Trey Murphy plus a pick swap. I’d personally stay put at 2 but I can see the argument. #2 for cam Johnson is a f**king pipe dream 😂😂😂😂

  8. I resubbed but the reason I unsubscribed in the first place is just something you find fascinating and won’t stop doing. Taking stupid ass takes that people use for engagement baiting and then sharing them with your subscribers. You’re doing the exact opposite of what I expect from a quality channel.

    Fucking curate before you disseminate.

  9. Trade #2 and Barnes for all the Nets FRPs and Cam.
    Trade all the nets FRPS, Vassell and next years 2nd round picks for Giannis. Thats like 8 total picks in the next two years and a SG who can really shine at the number 2-3 spot.
    This would be the best haul unless OKC can offer more
    Then we have
    Fox/Castle/Cam Johnson/Giannis/Wemby
    CP3&Wesley/KJ/Champagnie/Sochan/Brook Lopez in FA.
    Do this and we win it all in 26-30

  10. Many people consider Devin Vassell to be a "talented" guard when healthy; near Cam Johnson's level of talent, even though Cam is mostly a forward, and is a few inches taller.

  11. Every team is talking to every team before the draft.
    I am pretty sure that Bryan has already called the Mavs to ask if they are ready to trade the "Copper Flagg" pick.
    Of course, all disappointed teams should call the Spurs, the Sixers and the Hornets to check if there is a will to trade down. The Nets, Wizards and Jazz have tanked this year to start a rebuilding (by finding a franchise player). The 2025 is very loaded with potential franchise players (one sure [Flagg], one potential [Harper] and one with a lot of work [Bailey]). There should be other potential allstar players in this very talented draft but the choice is then more a gamble…

    But the Nets, Wizards and Jazz fans are so disappointed by the lotery results that they are transforming their hopes into potential moves.
    I checked the picks that the Nets could send to the Spurs : own and Knicks ones !!! Several future late first round picks don't worth a second pick in a very talented draft !!

    I would trade the 2nd pick only if I can get a top10 young NBA player in a winning trade : Jokic, SGA, Giannis, Luka, Mobley, Edwards, Tatum (oups… no),…

  12. Huh NBA!! Wanna steal Spurs picks sounds about right every team all the NBA even the media always want 2 derail our Spurs!! True Spurs Fan 4 Life!! Go Spurs GO!! P.S. Spurs keep building unless a great trade comes up other than that every free agent would wanna come 2 the team we've built we don't need 2 trade our Stars 4 1 player like what we've been doing don't make sense

  13. If anything there’s rumors about them adding a wing, but consistently it has been said they are extremely excited with having the possibility in drafting Dylan.

  14. Bro you spurs fans are nuts before draft yall were talking about trading it now yall wanna keep it yall are clowns 🤡 😂
