I Tried To Rebuild The Utah Jazz



I Tried To Rebuild The Utah Jazz

and we back today the goal is to rebuild the Utah Jazz they could use my help they are 10 and 30 on the season which is a good thing because y’all know there’s that one guy at Duke Cooper flag I want I I want the highest odds possible to get Cooper flag here in Utah but this team is pretty interesting right they got some good sellable pieces like a John Collins a Colin seon a Jordan Clarkson even a walker Kessler if everything works out so hopefully I can do this the right way I do want to keep my boy my my man am man lry marketed on the team for as long as possible hopefully he’s on this team when we win that Championship but only time will tell I don’t know how true this is but it seems like I haven’t rebuilt the Utah Jazz since 2019 is that right sorry Jazz fans I’ve been neglecting y’all for this long so I think we just simulate for now shout out to Bryce Cal who got a recent upgrade he’s been pretty good this season um I want John Collins and Jordan Clarkson to be back for their injuries before this video really starts so I’m just going to simulate and until I get the notifications there’s Taylor Hendrick what Taylor Hendrick snapped his leg right or his ankle there’s no way Taylor hendress is right back from his injury he’s still in the walking boot to this day so I’m going to I’m going to reinjure him which always sounds terrible when I say that but like I need this to be somewhat realistic but also I do want to say these videos are not meant to be realistic so I will be making some trades here that you may not think is real which is that’s completely okay at the end of the day my whole goal is to win this Championship here in Utah the first one ever I I don’t know I’m just going to say left foot surgery and say that he’s going to be out I I don’t know that injury looks so bad I don’t know what the real timetable would be I’m just going to say 156 days all right cool no way he should be back from his injury that is so crazy to me Johnny juang is back that doesn’t mean anything to Larry marketing for dear Fox stop it Jordan Clarkson’s back okay John Collins is back now we can finally get to dealing dealing dealing dealing okay so how how can we do this right there’s a couple different things we can do we think about John Collins who this season has been pretty good he’s 18 points per game eight rebounds 2 and a half assists he’s shooting 43% three which is a career high so he should be some somebody should be interested in him let’s just say that I got to figure out what team that is like the Clippers are interesting right you give us Terren man you give us PJ Tucker and another body and then you can run a lineup That is James Harden Norman pal Ka Leonard John Collins and zubot and still have Chris Dunn Amir coffee and so on going off the bench it’s not too bad there it’s not too bad um what other team send him back to Atlanta no we can’t send him to Atlanta send him to the Spurs I guess we can make that happen uh we can send him to Minnesota which I don’t hate um wait they they extended julus Randle in here oh no never mind I thought there’s a world we do like a julus Randle we get the expiring contracts they get John Collins they get Jordan Clarkson they throw me a first round pick but that’s dead they are they extended Julius Rand doing this video all right cool so I guess we go talk to the Clippers and say hey man it’s Terren man they need to make up 12 million is teren man is PJ do you got any picks you do you have a worst swap with the Thunder which is not going to be a good pick that’s like the 30th overall pick in this year’s draft because that’s how good the Thunder are but like if I could get a 30th overall pick for John cos at this point I ain’t mad at it and we send them Patty Mills is there any other pick here that’s valuable another swap from OKC and then a 7 six swap I feel like I’m getting finessed here I’m sending it in trade is done trade is done we got a bad first round pick but still a first round pick who knows what I can do with it I don’t know I’m going to make kawhai back a small forward Norman pow back a shooter guard make sure they got secondary positions so everything works out good yeah man the Clippers the Clippers look kind of good man 2K never really gives them their respect in these simulations but like as as soon as everything fixes out here that team looks even better and we got a first round pick for John Collins so dubs um now we can look at a Jordan Clarkson move which is just $14 million which means that he’s going to be easier to trade than some of the other players potentially on the team we just got to find somebody that has that type of contract that that can take it that could that also need some off the- bench scoring because that’s really what this is about How can Dallas do this deal Trey finder has to be an omx prosper in a first round pick how can they absorb that contract is that real Is that real cuz I’ll take the deal I will 100% take that deal I think I will I ain’t got to ask no other questions omx Prosper welcome to the team I mean now they have another guy off the Ben second scoring Jordan Clarkson trade exception ah there we go all right so I think those are the two trades that we’re going to do um The Walker Kesler piece is pretty interesting I kind of like Walker Kesler I’ll throw him in the trade find and see what’s up but none of these trades are good to me oh my God I mean that trade is really good um but that’s not you know what I’m saying the Lakers one that’s kind of insane uh I think we move just like it is I think we’re bad enough to be bad um does that make sense we’re bad enough to be bad I don’t want Terrence man getting minutes I definitely would much rather have Isaiah Kier get get some minutes here and then we’re going to make it a 10 man rotation actually let’s make it a 10 man rotation again take away Terence man’s minutes um give them to oh omx should get some minutes too huh even sh maai luk I’m sorry we give omx some minutes we just bought into him um wait that’s not omx hold on but yeah we got we drafted this guy 10th overall man he ain’t look good so far but we need to give him reps so we do that and then say they were CER they both get 10 minutes all right we’re goingon to be bad for the rest of the season yic wins MVP Ricky year goes to Alex SAR TJ mcconell Sixth Man of the Year Victor DP why most approved Zan Thompson plus play year y coach is Ken yakson and then Jordan hop Hopson wins exective the year that’s because we gave them Jordan Clarkson you know we helped you win that war all right so we’re going to be bad we were really bad do we have any Utah Jaz has all NBA or all rookie we got Cal lowski I don’t know how he’ll progress but he had a good season so that’s a dub uh we won a total of 20 games this year that puts us right towards the top of the sweep Stakes I forgot to look for Colin seon trades didn’t I huh um he still got extra year on his contract though so we could trade him in the offseason or something like that but I definitely a player I should have thought about trading just forgot about it but let’s take look at some stats of our younger players so we do get Walker kle almost AB in a double double Keon GE Aver is 166 is officially still is not very good we get Bryce cball who’s one of the revelations for the season I can’t wait to see what his play of progression looks like Philip palowski was good uh Taylor Hendricks you know he got injured and all we got Johnny juang seven points per game good efficiency we got omx Prosper five points per game shoted very well from three we’re excited about that Cody Williams looked pretty bad and and zaiah average five on bad fit as well so a lot of our young players did not score efficiently which is understandable we just got to turn it around a little bit we got Nicks versus Mavs in the finals and Mavs get that sweep they were a dominant team um they lost three total games on the way to the NBA Championship cool all right here we go NBA draft lottery baby um that OKC first overall pick is we’re protected don’t worry don’t we’re protected from that we are doing completely okay here we go we end up getting pick number five so we had the highest odds and dropped all the way to fifth so Cooper flag I’m sorry but we do have have picks number 28 and 29 and 25 I guess there’s a world we can package some stuff together and maybe move up to like I don’t know I mean the Nets have two picks at the end of the lottery then right outside the lottery uh I guess there’s a world we can move up or I guess there’s a world we can be buyers as well let’s take a look let’s take a look around the league and see how the season panned out the Portland TR blades end up being in the second world team out west and they have of course some players here that could be interesting I don’t know if they’re really interested to us but some interesting players nonetheless the Pelicans obviously took a a turn Brandon Ingram is a free agent if I’m not mistaken nope he signed an extension oh my God why did all of these players sign extensions bro they messes up my plans I wanted to be in on a Brandon engam sweet Stakes he signed an extension okay all right the Lakers ended up ending the season bad the Sacramento Kings missed it as well out east we have wizards we have okay all right we can we can maybe make some stuff Shake we can maybe make some stuff Shake I’m not mad at the way things went like can I move the Terren man contract in the one of these late first round picks you know what I’m saying trying to find a team I could just throw him into their cap space but no team really has cap space right now except for us we’re the only team we’re the only team in real cap space right now all right so um who has what pick again let’s take a look at the lottery so the Raptors ended up two the Pelicans three the Hornets four and then the Kings won the lottery they jumped all the way up bro wow Cooper flag Aon foxing them that’s kind of insane all right we going we going to take the punches bro even even though we really really wanted to have Cooper flag here you know some things don’t go the way you want them to go and that’s just the reality of life we just have to take what we got at number five so Cooper flag does go number one we do see Dylan Harper go number two number three does go Ace Bailey number four is demit number five is us and there’s there’s kasparis right here I’m not mad at him being there VJ edcom is cool but it really is like how much do we I mean they got him looking kind of bonds huh they said 16th pick hold on let’s take a look at the mock man the mock oh man the mack got my boy down here into the at not even in a lottery no that’s fake that’s fake that’s fake that’s 22nd oh man 15 so I might be able to get get him later like I might be able to make a trade to get him later so let’s take a look at what they actually have so we could get VJ um why would we O’Reilly be higher on the draft board than kasparis as I’m recording this video they’re going against Michigan State and will Riley has scored 14 straight points though so uh yeah so if you see me looking over there it’s CU I’m trying to check that scull but okay so I guess we walk out of there with VJ VJ edcom and then we make another trade so we hopefully we could trade into like let’s say the 10 who got 10th overall pick let’s see if we can trade into the 10th overall pick it’s the Pistons ah the Pistons probably not interested in Colin ston maybe we try to get the 11th overall pick it was the Bulls which means that the Spurs got it no that pick get moved again ax has have it it’s the Lakers I’m confused either way it was a Lakers pick um their money situation is awful so they can’t even afford to take this I’m going to give them all of these late first round picks I just want they want to they want that Lakers Pick O I don’t know if I could get there with that Lakers pick and they can’t take on salary either so probably did unless they want J EU Banks they can’t even take you J EU Banks’s contract wow not even sh makaio okay so I guess we go back to the Pistons man the Pistons could take that contract and it’s going to be so unrealistic to give them a bad contract at three first round picks for the 10th pick but the deal is done we’s got to hope he stays there to number 10 uhhuh will Riley goes early and just like that we can walk out of there with kasparis as well all right that’s that’s a good draft I think I kind of want to mess with some people and restrict the free agency the problem is this restricted free agency class is kind of buns I don’t want Josh giddy the second best restricted free agent is Santio D which I actually wouldn’t mind being here our power fourward position right now is filipowski is Taylor Hendrick ISX Prosper I don’t I have no idea how these two are going to progress especially with Taylor Hendrick coming off that big injury so having another guy like Santio dama to start wouldn’t be that bad man I’m I’m going to offer Santio dama a contract man or is it Santio dama doesn’t matter $15 million annually and see what that looks like for you question is will they match it it looks like they won’t wow Memphis just let him go that’s a good pickup for us our lineup is going to be crazy 7 Foot 7 Foot 7 Foot come on we got side I mean the back court is pretty small but like we got sides from that front Court that’s a dub Larry marinan drops by one oh man um we do get Walker kler jumping two keonte George jumping two brght CBA Dropping Drop jumping two um omx trumps four that’s great I mean Cody and Isaiah man how y’all got the same archetype and one of y’all is a thre man and one of y’all is a a f a Onan that’s not great bro last year’s draft class don’t look great for Utah in 2K simulation dog okay we’re fine we’re fine we make it work we got to cut one player got to be makyo I’m sorry man I don’t think he’s just a part of that long-term future this is another year we probably are going to be pretty bad that’s okay I think we can can not maybe we should move we should move kin sex this year 100% he’s on the last year of his deal he’s probably going to be pretty good pretty valuable on the market we got a lot of force here too though like some of these fours like omx Prosper can run some three we have no backup point guard minutes right now so we do need to give some isaia Kier minutes VJ Edam none of our two rookies man this is an interesting crazy team that’s probably why we really need to get off Colin sex and to free up some minutes for some of these young guards yeah we have to we have to to do it that way first game of the year is a double digit loss we let poo give up give us 40 I mean we really into the Keon George thing man we got to hope that he continues continues to be great if we take a look at Contract extensions Al SE said he will resign back that’s a pretty size like that’s a good deal for kyos sex I don’t want to be the one to do that though I mean we get Bryce CBA said he’s refusing to Tayla Hendrick is refusing to for whatever reason you haven’t done anything to okay whatever omx said he will resign 13 million a years maybe a bit much um Walker Kessler is not eligible but I’m curious to what his rookie SK skill extension looks like okay we’ll simulate and then we’ll find a team to take K ston actually we going to add him to our trade block right now so they could be offering us and maybe we get a good deal and uh we move on we’re at the dead line the first trade we’re going to do we’re going to trade for kcp in this really really nice looking first round pick they can use him more scoring Colin seon is that um for Utah so far on the C 17 points per game really good efficiency deal is done and I decided that we will trade Walker Kessler and the reason is he’s about to be really expensive and I just don’t know if he’s the type of Center I want when I win a championship so we’re going to trade him to New York who doesn’t have they don’t have a single backup center that they trust camage Williams is that he’s 66 so they get a really good backup center it would be their problem to extend him after already extending all these dudes we bring back Ben Simmons for one year and some change get a good good first round pick from Washington the deal is done those are the two deals we’re doing and it opens up some opportunities kcp would not be playing real minutes for us I’m sorry kcp basically if the NBA 2K had like some type of oh he’s got a player option dang okay I was talking I was thinking about buyouts buyouts aren’t happening here but we we could start VJ we could start the rookie over kcp right because we kcp is not a part of our long-term future so we put VJ in there and then we take these Ben Simmons minutes away and we give them to Isaiah I guess we’ll just leave it at that good deadline I don’t know I don’t even know if this draft class is good or not I just traded for two picks in it looked like it could be better look like it could be better we’ll make sure we’ll make sure we Scout it all the way through though let me let me now that I know I got some picks that might be valuable let me Scout through this player scouting off okay cool all right I’ll see you at the end of the season um Larry marketting for lamelo ball Larry marketing for lamelo ball is it’s I told myself Larry Market is not available I thought about it I swear I thought about it but my boy is staying on this team I’m going get him a ring I’mma get him a rank for sure alrighty hereo the awards Cooper flag of course WIS Rookie of the Year Sixth Man of the Year goes to demon uh rookie win a Sixth Man of the Year it’s been a while since we had that happen all the other awards are here um any Utah Jasmine I don’t believe so Utah Utah Utah hey VJ you know he started the second half of the Season how did you perform in that start to 10 points per game all right I love that I love that for you all right so we’re done with this season it’s an interesting one but not really we made some good trades I believe wimy versus Evan Moy Evan Moy Champion um some in trades can’t tell Bron he can’t retire I told him last year and I’m excited to see what that does for us NBA draft lottery is here we have um some some odds uh the Utah pick huh is all right all right I got to do some Googles y’all know 2K um y’all know 2K is not very great at this type of stuff but let’s let’s take a look and see exactly what’s what’s going on with this first round pick of ours so this year I have no idea what they’re talking about I’m I just looked at three different websites about future Utah Jazz picks none of them have anything to do with OKC having the pick at all nope it says Utah oh I can show you I can show you exactly what it says I’m getting my pick back this is what we’re reading Utah’s first round pick to OKC is protected 1 through 10 through 2025 that ended up being with the fifth overall pick and then 1 through eight in 2026 if Utah has not conveyed the first round pick to OKC by 2026 then Utah’s obligation to OKC will be extinct extinguished extinct so that means because this pick is number two that’s our pick 2K is a bad game and they don’t have the type of protections right I’m not giving them the second overall pick no no no go I got to turn on um the override and I’m getting my pick back trying to pre prevent me from building my team the right way OKC get all the picks boy cut it out give me my second overall pick back you get back dang I got a lot of first round picks oh my goodness I need to be buyer soon here’s a second I need to definitely be a buyer soon because that is insane maybe I’m a buyer now let me think about it let’s take a let’s take a look let’s take a look around the league right so like the Lakers are bad that we are bad the trail the Clippers are bad they don’t really have much um The Warriors are pretty bad right now out east 76ers are bad hey ter Maxie you want you want to come hoop in Utah um lamelo ball is a real option man lamelo ball is a real option they even offered him to me they they were think about moving lamelo so maybe we tryy to buy in omelo and um I don’t know Keon George is a Twan I mean I look at him as a he played to for the majority of his life it wasn’t until the NBA where he started playing point guard so I guess that’s a possibility that we can we can do right now let’s let’s go to the draft let’s go to the draft let’s go to the draft so here we go first overall pick of Chicago Bull select a guy Nam Otis oh my God we haven’t had Otis in the NBA in like 60 years they this draft class has this guy with a Hall of Fame cealing and the bench is J and the floor is Jerry Sloan Jerry Sloan great NBA player another two guard though Benjamin Benjamin Big Ben Big Ben great defender can’t do anything else right now he’s got a Hall of Fame seiling we got a few centers this guy from Xavier of Ohio he’s 21 years old he’s 610 he’s 225 pretty pretty light this guy is 69 he’s got both of these dudes got really good cealing Dwight Howard and Joel embiid is pretty good A Scott Scot pip now Scotty Pippen now Scotty Pippen comp is interesting Scotty Pippen comp is very interesting he doesn’t do anything Scotty pipping like he can’t he can’t score it looks like what’s the passing like the passing is bad what’s the defense like the defense is even worse but he could be SC but he could be Scotty Bibb that’s the player C got Mitchell World be free okay we got some good names here let’s go try to pull off the Melo trade maybe the second overall pick helps us get lamelo ball maybe you know he’s a $40 million player we give them Ben Simmons who’s still got value even though he didn’t play at all last season he was on the Knicks didn’t play he got to us he didn’t play so uh who who knows uh we also stio doin didn’t work out the way we wanted him to and with Cal filipowski right here we don’t need all of these four man like it was cool to bring him on to the team but they’re like Larry Markin is probably really the four and then we let Bryce Sall be the three uh Keon be the two so so maybe alama’s part of this deal and then we give them pick number two do do they have anything else that we would want I could do this and then we still have late lottery or seventh overall pick cuz again this draft class ain’t too crazy it ain’t like we missing out on you know somebody amazing I don’t think I’m doing this straight second overall pick for lamelo ball they take West Bridges and I think this is the Scotti Pippen guy I think this Scotty Pippen comp yep so they took Scotty Pippen 2.0 if he ever ends up being that we don’t know Dwayne wear goes three then goes the guy with a really high ceiling who knows if he’s going to be that Jamal Terry is next then one of the centers score I think we draft this the other Center oh no this is not one of the centers I mentioned this guy is 73 can you rebound whale uh average rebounder you going to be 73 I feel like you got a rebound whale I don’t know maybe that’s this other Center though this is the one that hit the Dwight Howard ceiling but I don’t think his defense is anything Dwight Howard ask post defense is about average it’s just you know what I’m not mad at this player as a prospect man three badges coming in even Theo RI was a Allstar once interior defense is not very good but he’s 21 blocking is pretty high rebounding is trash I cannot have a five man and don’t rebound sorry Pat I’m going to do it all right none of the centers can rebound what makes me think that I’m overestimating what the rebound really is like um here we go another pick and Kenny Jameson is going to be the next pick this draft class is kind of trash not his draft class was trash I think we did the right thing getting rid of to walk he wants 37 million that’s just so much for him so much um Isaiah hardenstein wants less than that and they’re they’re the same overall IH heart’s simulation stats are always trash though yeah look at that yeah they’re really bad they got him shooting threes like a lot of them 100 oh no it’s only eight okay cool cool we do need a new center though that’s for sure maybe that’s not through free agency but through a trade we do have kcps $21 million but the problem is we waited too long and now everybody’s buying so everybody’s going to be even more expensive um maybe we could steal pull off a trade a trade that’s too good for somebody to pass up on like they still have I don’t want DeAndre Aiden even if he Tred did he sign a different contract the same contract this may be a new extension I don’t remember I don’t want DeAndre Aiden though I’m trying to think about teams that would have a center or an extra Center that they like we we’ll take a first round pick for him like the Clippers were bad man can I take suo can I trade for Zoo right now another Clippers trade cuz they were bad bad and like there’s a world where they want to like get some value out of some of these players right we give them kcp and our own first round pick because I’m assuming we’re going to be at least decent this year I could be wrong they want more okay we’ll give them Cleveland pick Cleveland’s usually good they just won a championship Cleveland pick wow two first round picks is not good enough for Zoo huh we could do wow that feels like a lot I I don’t know if I can go either further any further than that unless we give them omx to I’ll give them omx 2 that should be a deal there we go all right so now we got zoo on the team zoo is our new star in Center we need to go get a backup center and Larry Market is running some three this year okay yeah backup center all right play progression is going to be super important here so up by six for VJ that’s great up by two for keante zubach is still getting better CA I wish you were still jumping but you basically been the same overall for two years now Cody I Cody man I’m sorry bro you just might not be an NBA player like that like a real rotational NBA player that sucks I wanted him to be really good but he’s not getting much better all right NBA draft you okay all right all right this could be an interesting year this should this could be a playoff year and you think about all the picks that we have like there’s a world we are again Ultra buyers and we could make something really really nice happen but again maybe I’m thinking too far in the future let’s let’s take it one step at a time right we’re going to put George as a two-man L Markin as a four-man Bryce Sall is going to start there okay cool DJs are two oh yeah they want to start him over I’m not mad at this because VJ is more of an athlete than he’s 66 and his defense is an A+ now wow wow all right his defense is an A plus so yes he’s starting over Keon keante has to be this super great six man we got uh kasparis as a seventh man filipowski we still do have Hendrick said then we brought in Nick Richards again Cody I wish you could play for us but you really just can’t maybe you’re the trade pie cuz somebody might believe in you as a former Lotter Pi first game of the season is a onepoint loss they ain’t too bad vj’s here though both of our last year’s rookies look like they here I guess sophomore players they look like they here I wish Cody Williams all the best but we’re going to trade him away for D connect and we’re going to make Don connect the three man his overall goes up a ton Don connect just became the second best player on the team whoa I don’t I don’t know how that’s even possible um but it’s lamelo it’s VJ it’s connect it’s l marketed in zoo we do need some backup center minutes so oh you know what filipowski holding that down ain’t he he holding that down he holding that down we feel we feel good we feel good man I don’t know if we’re a championship team right now we are a playoff team at the bare minimum with a four seed six games behind that one seed so who knows we’ll see Lucas MVP wow you’re finally getting minutes you drafted in 2025 2027 all right here are the awards um do we get any Utah Jazz lamelo’s on the second team 249 and four good efficiency shout out Melo uh we do get VJ on all defensive second team shout out to you okay we ended up being a five seed I think we were the four seed when we made that Don connect tra so we did just drop by one spot I ain’t tripping about it we do got Minnesota in the first round Rob Anthony Edwards Jaden mcdes lonard Miller and then Rudy goar their front court is pretty bad Rudy goar is only an 80 and lyard Miller is only a 76 I think we can win this series man they do have one of the best players in the league right now um with Anthony Edwards though so we we gotta contain him game one is a loss we did not contain him that game that’s okay VJ step it up you were all defensive right you were all defensive why you VJ come on put that CL put the clamp on we do win a game they’re up 3-1 come on come back come back never mind I didn’t think this was a championship season either way I think we still maybe a year or two away from that um we need to see what this player progression can do for like VJ and all of these guys so I’m not tried about it too much we still do have a ton of first round picks I wouldn’t be surprised one of them picks is good seventh overall pick from the Lakers is for us then we get 21 and 25 I don’t care about those 20s but that seventh overall pick we could use you know another Scotti Pippen comp guy he’s 22 years old I might just draft him who knows we gonna dra we gonna draft Brad Carr the Scotty Pippen comp from Virginia and this is where things get real interesting because we got you know some of our younger players w that bag Keon George being one of those dudes Off the Bench last season how did you perform for us I mean he was pretty good his per 36 was aming aming actually he’s cut his turnovers down his assists are up I ain’t mad at giving you a bag 25 to come off the or 26 to come off the bench I ain’t mad at it Bryce cens last season was 12 points per game I’m going to give you the back too because I think you’re a trade piece if necessary then we get to Isaiah Kier who didn’t even play he’s only played a little bit through these this video so far and then Taylor Hendricks I mean how much do you want Taylor cuz I mean you’ve been all right I just don’t know if you’re worth 19 15 mil you know what trade piece I I got to keep that in mind you package both of these dudes up Bry Centon Taylor Hendricks that’s a lot of money that can be thrown out there so I’m going to bring them all back even if that’s not the smartest thing to do VJ jumped seven yo this is insane um I’m happy I drafted him even our Guy Sebastian Tucker jumps up six he’s he’s actually the backup center now and did his rebound go up it’s a B+ hey he looks all right Larry Markin in stagnant at 84 which is unfortunate it um he’s like what the third best player on the team now fourth best player fifth best player on the team now oh my God oh my God it’s insane That’s my boy so he’s here for forever his contract being that large is really preventing us from doing some crazy crazy stuff I’ll say that though I I can we agree on that his contract being that large is definitely hurting us just a little bit but that’s fine because this might be the year we got some really tradable pieces if we need to be like Ultra buyers I mean it could be to replace Larry Market in the starting lineup I don’t know just speaking aloud um I’m going to take Taylor hendron’s minutes and give him to Sebastian Tucker so we can have that Center I I mean I feel good about this team bro I feel good about this team first game is a win behind lamelo ball v vj’s been great on the class man golly he’s a great border all right y’all so I didn’t do any trades I steered on the side of depth I don’t know if that’s going to be the smartest thing we can do um lamelo made an allba A team again shout out to him been good trade piece for us I don’t know if that was the right thing to do um Walker cast was in Chicago we could have had both of these guys wow um but that’s what I decided to do I did look around and there wasn’t really much for us to do uh we got 58 wins on the season I think that’s pretty good we didn’t end the season very well four and six in the last 10 that’s a little bit scary but if we take a look across the association there’s only a few teams that were better than us and that is the the Dallas Mavericks and the Brooklyn Nets that’s that’s really it so like there here’s a chance we could do the thing man there’s a chance we can do the thing first round is against OKC that is so unfortunate look at that roster why how why did I get that unlucky I mean they were a playing team so maybe that don’t matter that they have so much talent okay game one is a win game two is a win game three okay we going to sweep him all right so yeah that was overblown but the Aon Fox shade chat that that’s a crazy lineup there okay way is now playing the four cuz Quinn Ford is at the five so that’s fun another really solid looking team man uh okay all right here we go here we go game one we win another VJ game game two we win game three oh my God we’re going to sweep them too no we’re not get him in five there we go we’re in okay so if we this is the championship I think this is the championship y’all if we can beat this team I think we might look better okay they look like a better team we got that huge huge um difference between DT KCK and kwami Evans Jr so that’s good maybe Dalton can have a really good series because he’s got the higher overall there game one we lose matter of fact let’s stop messing around and let’s shorten our rotation quite a bit this is potentially the NBA Finals you know what I’m saying game two we win that one there we go there we go we’re win by committee team we’re not having a bunch of Great Performances but four people dropping 24 more is great we not having one dude Dro 40s like they having that that and his name is Luca they R up 3-2 dang okay all right this is where we bring out the big guns no substitutions e even ke who’s been as great as he has he can’t play in these last two games of this series even though he can’t shoot threes right now um he can’t play he can’t play here we go Sim cast it yeah Sim cast it simc all right Utah I need a moment Man actually I need a blowout don’t give me no close game this is where we don’t want close games this is where we want to take advantage of that home court advantage and we do it looks like yes we’re going to walk out of there with a Sixpoint win is a lowc scoring game BJ with 30 and N he’s such a great rebounder from that shooting guard position man okay all right one game one game and then we go against the Pacers in the finals just one win in Dallas in Dallas first quarter it’s us by two all right second quarter they come out and they destroy us yo that’s the end all right we probably should have bought somebody at the deadline we should have probably went went all in it’s not too late this offseason could be that Steph Curry and all of these dudes trying to retire look at all all 85 pluses we still just have crazy picks we have the seventh overall pick this year too I don’t want any of that I don’t want Larry bro 53 million bro if we could if we somehow oh zuba said he don’t want to come back we just made it to the conference final Larry bro like okay hypothetically Larry in a seventh overall pick I’m not doing none of these traits but I’m curious to see what they yeah bro wow that contract is really holding us back man the contract is really holding us back that’s insane all right we live we always do we’ll make it work I made a promise at the beginning of the video to my friend that he will be on this team once we win he will be on this team once we this is I think this is the Panic year right this is the year you have to panic you have to do something drastic I mean we just had a really good season and it didn’t matter like we could do with jayen Johnson tyus Jones trade right here give it the seventh overall pick two of our good role players and we could get Jaylen Johnson that means Larry Markin is now a seventh man because Keon George is our six man I mean the the counter stats not going to ever jump off the page for Jaylen Johnson but if you know you know and he’s like that we could go Donovan kingan here I don’t love that uh let’s see if there’s a different trade out there I’m going to do the Lively trade not only does it hurt the team that was the number one seed but I’m afraid that Zoo really is not coming back I’m afraid he’s really not coming back and if he’s not coming back we need a center ASAP so I’m also going to do that so we lost Dawn connect the free agency zubot decid to come back we’re doing a signing trade we’re bringing in jir McCain two first round picks in that we’re going to put VJ at the three Jeremy Kane at the two um L Markus going to stay our fourman cuz we really don’t have any other option um and hope that that’s the that’s probably the smartest thing we can do right now and hope that we could get the job done we do see Jamal Terry the guy that we got in that trade jump up a lot so that’s cool L Mark and is 31 years old he’s got the this is like the last dance for him he’s 31 years old last year of his contract we’ll see we’ll see Larry I’m trying to get it for you and now you still starting which makes things super interesting because if you still drop it like that uh we we’re going to go back to a normal rotation for the regular season like jerem McCain VJ like this is a really good team yeah it’s a really good team I think it’s well balanced too it’s just a matter of getting the job done it’s just a matter of getting the job done at this point and at and and we’ve been struggling to get that done you know first game of the season is a loss that’s not ideal 2020 game from yoke that’s not ideal game two of the Season should be a win there it is shout out to Tatum and stuff um jerem mang is going to be great for us I already know he going to be I am not here to mess around this is the Year hope hopefully uh we do get Coach of the Year 66 wins for Will Hardy he’s been here since the very beginning we got love for Will Hardy VJ is all NBA first team by the way first team do you hear me and oh lamelo is third team huh we up we up man two all NBA players we were the two seat though cuz wiama cuz wiama all right we we did not make any trades again I looked around at the deadline nothing came up we not go for we want to go force it l marketing um hm Reserve is crazy ain’t it I mean game one win game two bro no way we get rid of Larry Market in the lineup we win the championship then no way no way they gonna do that to my boy all right so Bryce C potential um what’s the word Revenge but also dere live they traded you for Bryce cabon the seventh pick they weren’t thinking about winning they went from the one seed to the three oh they win first game no no no okay all right all right all right I’m not here to mess around that down2 oh my goodness bro what what okay hold on hold on hold on I see 2020 game for my shooter guard by the way I see why I have not rebuilt the Utah Jazz it’s impossible it’s impossible it’s impossible it’s a rigged team it’s a it’s rigged against what could we do like we could run both centers right run both centers I’m doing that I just don’t know what else is the PO like what else could we do other than run both centers Sean oh I call him Sean a Sebastian can at least shoot it a little bit I mean we think just get more size in there more rebound and more defense I don’t know bro we’re down 3 0 har marketing it’s just oh man all right okay here we go yeah we win a game woohoo congratulations we win a game game number five we lose I’m lost bro I’m lost I don’t know what to do I don’t know what to do yo I don’t know what to do I can’t do it oh my God and now Low’s on the LA that was the last year of his deal he might just straight up walk on us he might straight up walking us we at the 17th overall pick I don’t really care about that he might straight up does that mean we fire we finally fire coach I’m doing it I don’t think that’s going to matter but you don’t lose that bad right you got you you can’t lose that bad this many years and still keep your job so we got a new coach in there scape goat type stuff it’s really I’m really the problem when you think about it but he had somebody we needed escap go and it happened to be we got everybody in free agency Larry I’m bringing you back BJ you know we bringing you back kasparis oh we can’t bring you back right now but I I want to even though I don’t know if you’ve done anything in your career so far I was so happy to get you and you ended up being just a good backup it looks like oh no he’s actually really really good his perk 36 tell me that he should be starting somewhere I’m giving him a lot of money to stay here well well there’s that he’s going to a different team ha so exciting for everybody involved we just became the most expensive team in the league and we can’t afford to bring back our really good backup point guard so instead we’re going to bring in Zion Pullin I don’t know who you are but you look like a real dude um and we’re going to watch kaspar which go to a different team and dominate I’m already knowing I’m already knowing he going to go somewhere he’s going to be amazing and I’m excited for him but I’m mad about our video all right here we go player progression again sheesh we get a plus three a plus4 there I mean Lowry’s down to an 80 he’s practically barely NBA rotational player and got to be the Year this has got to be the year Larry I said it last year but this also has to be the year do I run a seven-man rotation all season long do I try to be the best regular season team of all time cuz we have not got the one seed once we are starting Jamal Terry so that’s kind of cool Jamal I don’t even know what you’re good at you’ve just been kind of existed on this team great defender great rebounder great mid-range shooter he’s a small power forward but he gets the job done um man Larry no rotational minutes even if we make it a 10- man rotation are they playing you yeah okay 10 man rotation for the regular season let’s go has to be the year right MVP VJ Edom TW oh my God he shot 40% from three he’s he’s Elite all around baby it’s got to be the year no way we have the MVP the coach of the year and all of that and not win it lamelo’s third team no way no way no way one C for the first time we won 71 games I am not messing around this season bro I am running a seven man rotation to start um dang they want to start Sebastian Tucker over Dereck Lively I’m not mad at it man not mad at it at all all right who we got in the first round we got the oh my God not y’all again bro I’m tired of y’all but they look worse they do have Darius gar and LCA donic up top but the fact that they’re a playing Team tells me that they have felling they fell off a little bit and they did all right second round Minnesota Tim please bro Anthony Edwards is still amazing they now have Zion and Zack Edy what a four and a five we’re better we’re better we got the MVP of the league man we got the MVP of the league and look at him he’s filling up the box score bro game two we almost didn’t even draft VJ isn’t that crazy okay five game series hopefully yes Conference Finals we got the Golden State Warriors Steph Curry is still around how old are you how old is Steph Curry right now he is 42 oh my God the oldest man in the league by four years and he’s still pretty good 20 points per game how many three-pointers has this man hit I’m sorry this is a tangent but no way no way he’s still around doing a oh Luca Luka here oh no that’s a real thing that happened I remember that he’s fifth in total points he’s got 5,45 h3s insane insane number right there Wardell I hope you get you another championship before you retire it just has to be next year cuz I yeah yeah all we’re in the finals it’s US versus who go Gonzalez another person from this draft class wow he’s only an 83 he got Conference Finals MVP over Pao and France and Derek Queen and sucks this team was selling last year at the deadline and here they are back in the finals good thing they didn’t sell anything they was thinking about it they was trying to do it I tried to get Pao didn’t have the money to match game one we win behind lamelo ball game two we win behind Jer McCain L lamelo ball and a triple double for VJ this is the oh my God start Larry Mark last game start Larry marketing right now get Larry marketer minutes right now where is he at he at the bottom there I’m sorry Terry you’ve been great but

  1. When you look at a prospect’s attributes, 2K puts that players attributes as the league AVG because it compares it to nobody except that prospect.

  2. So I wanna know if changing the Coaching style really makes a difference or not.

    Challenge pick a team that's good right now and one that is bad and see if you can just change the coaching and play style to make the team better or worse

  3. Do a “Conference vs conference Worst contracts rebuild”
    Make two expansion teams, put the worst contract from each respective team in your conference on your team. From there you must rebuild each team only trading within conference for 3 seasons and can only sign free agents from your conference except you are allowed one out of conference contract offer but it must be to a RFA. If you trade with a team for picks the team original team that owned said pick must be in your conference.
    Whichever team wins the most titles in 5 years wins.
    Edit: I will allow you to decide who has the worst contract on each team. Ps if they are injured irl then they are injured in game.

  4. There’s been a former jazz player in every finals for the last 27 years. It’s insane how great the Utah feeder team is at creating future champions

  5. I miss when Kenny would make the realistic videos of every team like he would in like 2k19, the wheel rebuilds, 2kmtcentral, 5 min rebuilds all those were amazing

  6. Kenny we need a jalen/jaylen rebuild, u can only have players named Jalen or Jaylen in the team and try to win a chip (brown green Brunson etc so many options)

  7. All I do is rebuild teams, and when I tell you VJ edgebombe is always THAT guy 😭 even since 2k23 no matter what draft class I download somehow they make him go crazy every time

  8. KENNY DO A REBUILD WHERE YOU WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP WITH ALL CHICAGO TEAMS… Bulls, Stars, Blackhawks, and White Sox… I wanna see if Kenny can rebuild in FC & Hockey

  9. Funny watching this now and dallas won the 1st championship. And now how they trade luka lol what couldve been…
