Can a backcourt of Cam Thomas & Jeremiah fears electrify the Nets
what is going on everyone welcome back to another edition of BKMY Hoops if you are new to the channel I’m your host as always Rasheed White all right let’s get into it over here you guys see the graphics you actually see the title can a backcourt of Cam Thomas and Jeremiah Fierce really electrify the Brooklyn Nets um make the team much more interesting to watch make the team much more interesting to talk about uh we’re going to actually dive into it there’s a couple of guys out there that doesn’t really believe that this can actually work um maybe it actually could but let’s get into the actual article here man so we’re not going to try to be too long tonight man um it’s been a minute since I actually been on so I doubt that people will actually really um shouldn’t be that many people here today which is good for me all right so it says um it talks about um about Jeremiah Fears over here and can this back court actually really truly work together and the Brooklyn Netcast over here is saying a Jeremiah fears and Cam Thomas backcourt does not work if their plan is to draft Jeremiah fears it must mean they are clearly not investing long-term into Cam Thomas so if the Nets select a player who doesn’t need to score in isolation to be effective like Canipple or Kaspar Kasparis then Thomas can continue to thrive in Brooklyn next to his lottery pick however picking a score first point guard in the draft means the Nets need to decide who they want to have the balls in his hands Thomas or the number eight pick so yeah I mean right now is is going to actually be Thomas right we seen him really kind of improve on his decision making um like we don’t know what Jeremiah Fears is actually really going to be man so um you know and we’re going to get into into the whole scouting report um so let me start from the top of the actual article over here man it says players projected in Brooklyn’s range included Jeremiah Fierce Trey Johnson Kenipo these prospects certainly have the potential to lead the franchise into the future well again potential is the key word over here man potential potential so we don’t know man um we seen guys like uh well actually we’ve seen number one picks number two picks you know not really pan out they they actually turned out to be bust but then we can see picks at the number you know 12 or you know 10 eight you know turn out to actually be really good players man all right so it says the reasons Brooklyn faces a a potential dilemma is because who is projected in that pick range it creates a crossroads for the Nets centered around Cam Thomas their star scorer as much as Thomas has been elite for the Brooklyn Nets over the last two seasons putting up incredible scoring numbers the team has the team has stayed stagnant the Nets have suffered seasons in which they aren’t uh uh uh in which they aren’t at the very bottom of the NBA but rather just go outside the playing tournament just sitting in the mid lottery well we can’t put that all on Cam Thomas man i mean uh there there’s a lot of deficiencies on like in terms of offense and defense that’s really on a roster man like you look at Nick Clark Nick Claxton sorry um I mean he he he he has like serious serious defensive limitations right and offensive limitations and he can’t shoot and he causes like a lot of spacing issues so um that will definitely like impact like Cam Thomas’s efficiency right there all right so all right let’s get back into this over here all right so the fact of the matter that is that although the roster isn’t great Thomas doesn’t impact winning with his style of play he puts up incredible surface level scoring numbers on uh subpar efficiency while his playmaking and defense still lacks for him to be considered among the league’s best and I’ve actually mentioned this i I said this before um when you actually look at all the other two guards around the NBA especially like let’s say combo guards because a lot of these two guards really do average like four and a half to 5.5 assists per game um if I was to take Cam Thomas and put him on Minnesota right now uh well he’s going to have to come off the bench but if I take uh if I take um K Cahan and put him on Minnesota with with Anthony Edwards we could have a serious serious three-hour debate four-hour debate on who offense is actually going to be ran through and who’s actually really really the best player right there man um but like I said we haven’t really seen a large sample size of Cam Thomas and I’mma put that all on Shawn Marx and and those uh previous coaches for not really allowing him to really develop you know I don’t want to hear the fact that oh there was KD and Kyrie on the team because like you know those those guys were veterans at the time and you can always um like put like like like you know have a player like Cam Thomas come in and really kind of give you some minutes and give you some scoring and take some pressure you know off those guys so they don’t really have to carry um and I already went into this already so the Brooklyn Netcast they don’t feel that this back court is not going to work um so we’re going to get into the actual um scouting reports over here on uh Jeremiah Fierce because I don’t know man could he actually really get better let’s get into this over here one second hold on let me just All right here we go right here all right so Jeremiah fears they NBA draft net projects to h have him drafted at number five and to the Utah Jazz and so we already know what the strengths are his NBA comparisons is John Wall or Doc Rivers i never seen Doc Rivers really play i seen some highlights but I never really watched Doc you know uh Doc Rivers play so yeah so basically he’s like a score first point guard um and that’s something that has to change like on the NBA level because if he if he’s just going to go out there and just look to score and I mean his his his game is going to really become too predictable you know so um so again so it seems like yeah solid pick and roll uh operator but let’s get into the actual weaknesses cuz we know what his strengths are and they have him measured at 6’4 but at the NBA combine it seems like without the sneakers he’s 6’2 barefoot right 179 lbs and his three-point shooting I think what I read was at let me see something 25% 28% now there’s no guarantee that Jeremiah Fears cuz look at Ben Simmons we look at other guys like um uh what’s his name um Dennis Smith Jr right i mean those guys never really worked on their three-point shot russell Westbrook so I rather like the Nets really kind of get somebody in here that can actually shoot it’s more of a guarantee but it’s yeah 28.4% on three-point shooters and that’s not you know that’s not good um it says shooting shooting shot mechanics are sound but he can be streaky from deep needs to grow uh uh uh needs to show greater consistency from a three-point especially off the dribble to um and that’s going to take time you know he can get he can get better than that but again we just don’t know if these guys are going to get better you know it’s a it’s a serious gamble all right so um he says at times can settle for contested mid-range shots instead of working for better looks or drawing contact and that’s going to be hard for him to really do because of his size 6’2 179 pounds man i mean you have guys like like uh the like a lot of your um like Jaylen Brown um uh Bam out of bio like you know a lot of these guys can move laterally man and it’s going to be hard for him like I was showing the la in the last stream for him to like really kind of get that bump you know and and create separation and to and to really get a good high percentage shot off so that’s another thing he has to get stronger um it says has a tendency to dribble into traffic and where was it hold on where was I okay and force tough looks when help defenses collapse um yeah that’s that’s see that’s that’s another thing right there man um it’s just like IQwise is like h solid vision and passing skills but does not create offense for others at the same level that he actually looks to score so you he you definitely want to really kind of find that balance right because at the the defense knows you’re going to really score is this going to be easy for them to keen in on you if you look to pass more um like defenses to start playing for the pass and then you can actually go look to actually score it’s really going to help him um but again we’ll see um okay and then he says should develop into a better spotup shooter in order to become a more effective floor spacer uh defensively he has potential but can lose focus off the ball and must continue improving his screen navigation and uh staying disciplined and rotations so the good thing over here says is um is is is he’s actually described as a gym rat so that’s good i mean he’s actually constantly looking to work on his game um and again so it says over here he’s measured at 6’2 250 lbs 179 um let me see what it says about his vertical uh 32 no step vertical and 30 all right i mean um the good thing about him is that let me see do they got any highlights over of him over here they usually do um but it looks like the other the other kid over here let me see trey not Trey Trey Johnson um this is actually a Cam Thomas replacement and that’s who they actually compare him to so he’s actually taller than Cam Thomas 66 190 lbs um he was you know in terms of being a an a willing passer at this level it was just better than what what Cam Thomas is actually doing uh more athletic so um Oh yeah let me get the link in for you guys over here man let me see what you guys are saying i haven’t I haven’t spoken to you guys in a minute man hold on let me get Let me get the link man hold on one second here all right yo DJ get on up in here man get on up in here um let me see he says “Dwabi what’s good man?” He says he might he might but he’s not he’s not Cam Thomas i rather right now I rather put Cam Thomas i would like experiment with him at the point guard position so right now Cam Thomas is shooting like 35% from the three-point line which is like right at NBA average yo DJ what’s good man yo what’s up be good yo it’s been a minute man it’s been like I think 11 days or 12 days technically since I did a live stream yo what’s good though man yeah it’s been a minute bro ain’t nothing I mean besides besides the draft and I mean ain’t nothing too much going on in the basketball world right now yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah i mean that’s I mean there was a trade today but Yeah desmond Bane what do you think about that trade though man does it help elevator got better bro yeah yeah the just got worse in my opinion i’m not going to lie well they probably feel they weren’t winning with that with that group though so you might as well because of Jaw bro j got to get better that’s true too yeah yeah well at least at least the exact same player he was when he came when he got drafted well he’s small too though man you know like you you get him in a half court set man like it’s I mean he’s great on the fast break but you start putting him in a half court set and you got these long trees in there um I mean yeah you know his roster after that trade bro i’m not going to lie well Contavius Clawwell Pope does play defense man he guards you sure about that yeah man well well he probably wasn’t he’s not he’s washed up bro that’s not helping him at all he ain’t played no defense on the Magic how is he going to help yeah yeah i don’t know if they lie he lost his three ball i don’t know what happened to his three ball yeah yeah i don’t know maybe i like I like the Magic bro the Magic got better yeah oh they did they did man cuz we were I was on the locker room show last night and uh we were talking about how the East is actually really wide open but now um this changes a lot of things right now man so we were talking about LeBron James probably going to the Knicks or something like that that’ll probably like you know you think it’s wide open because what like cuz the Well cuz Boston is looking to break up their team i don’t you know uh because of you know this whole second second apron thing but um I’m not moving off of Jaylen Brown or or Jason Tatum yeah I know i know i know everyone else can go but I’m not moving off them two he says those stats are deflated coming off uh his hammy BK well you mean Cam Thomas um Oh yeah cam Thomas with the hamstring injury it was a 26 game 46 but you talking about you’re talking about scoring though no with the the article oh this this actually Let me show you who talking about i think he’s talking about Yeah let me show you this article so the Brooklyn Netcast was actually saying that um Yeah when did Cam Cam Cam get hurt cam got hurt at like beginning part of the season I think yeah yeah so Cam Thomas over here they Brooklyn Netcast over here saying that um a Jeremiah Fears and Cam Thomas backcourt does not work um if their plan is to draft Jeremiah fears it must mean they are clearly not investing long-term into Cam Thomas but Dwabi typically you don’t see players like Cam actually like become like three and D type guys or like three three and guard three and D guard type guys like Yeah i mean see my thing my thing with Camp Thomas is really more the defensive end of things though so like he’s I just want him at least a I just want him to at least be a better like a defensive player i don’t think he can though man i just don’t think he has a gen like it’s not in his genetics man he doesn’t have the the the foot speed like the fast twitch muscles the because the wobbie there’s other things you have to do in basketball to be scoring like than just scoring you have to when you want to be successful in the league you don’t you got to do more stuff than scoring bro yeah and if you playoff these players bro they got more things to them in their game than scoring yeah no before you got before you came on I was mentioning how a lot of the shooting guards have average like about 5.5 assists if you look at a guy like Jaylen Williams off the OKC Thunder um he averages almost 5.5 assists a game you know and then you look at the explosiveness his ability to finish explode through contact um like Cam Thomas doesn’t really give you that you know but I would What do you think about Cam Thomas at point guard i’d rather put him at point guard right now um no horrible i’m not putting him at point guard you cannot play the point guard we’ve seen him play point guard a couple times it’s horrible no but I mean his his his uh playmaking has gotten better man i mean not enough to play the point guard spot nah I don’t want I don’t want him at the point guard i I don’t want him at the point guard at all yeah i guess yeah he has to do that’s the thing is the defense right are you looking at Well you’re looking at more for like offensively or defensively um or both defensively because I I think if he plays the point guard then he’s going to be his scoring is going to have to go down a little bit because he’s going to have to play the point guard role he’s going to have to be playmaking and stuff so if he plays I don’t know bro i just don’t like I don’t like because he has he has enough he has enough like uh status in the league to have like a scout and report like really kind of be generated on him like so if you get like a guy like Jeremiah fears you know especially like in the regular season they’re going to really like care about him that much in terms of like scouting him but like Cam Thomas you already know like he can score in isolation so you probably got to run like probably a second defender on him depending on the matchup and it’s also like switches you can get him involved in like if you can get like a bigger slower like center or power forward get switched on to him you know maybe that’ll actually start creating a secondary defender when he gets those um you know those those uh isolations right there but I I don’t know he said Kyrie first of all Kyrie and Jamal Murray are better defenders than Cam Thomas and they’re better playmakers that’s number one and Kyrie and them dudes is better than Cam Thomas in the pick and roll yeah that’s true yeah I mean Kyrie can even like when he was a rookie like Kyrie can actually run the P&R you know like when he was in his first second year you know it’s like it’s like Cam how tall is Cam cam is like 63 i mean 62 so Drock I mean I don’t know i don’t know what happened i gota get I got to find him um but Drock said he stood next to Cam Thomas and Cam Thomas was really more like 61 well however tall he is 6’1 he he his frame says he’s a point guard but his skills is not point guard like it’s not point guard ready yeah yeah and if he struggles with shooting shooting guards guarding shooting guards he’s going to struggle even more with guarding point guards yeah yeah and that’s the thing with Cam Thomas especially like on the defensive end like you got to look at the foot speed in terms of like running guys off the three-point line man because we’ve seen like you know teams like go hot like get hot from three and the and the game could be over like in the second quarter man you know I’ve been I’ve been seeing a lot of Nets fans saying the Jeremiah Fears and Cam Thomas back court won’t work i don’t know i think it could h That’s what I’m saying i think it could yeah yeah yeah but I see a lot of Nets fans I see a lot of Nets fans saying it won’t work because of Cam Thomas really yeah but I mean Cam Thomas is a more Well am I wrong why why do they not i don’t know i mean because if you look at Jeremiah Fierce they have him without shoes on um where was it over here 6’2 well I don’t think it was defensively yeah i mean yeah it it’s I guess even when like Jeremiah Fear is at 180 lbs or 179 pounds that’s like te that’s like teetering around like Dennis Shuda right there in terms of his weight i mean like Dennis Shooter is like a little bit lighter than that 165 pounds but um like guys like Jaylen Brown Donovan Mitchell um Tatum you know they always hunt like certain matchups like that so I don’t know man um you know I guess for now I mean the Nets is putting themsel they put themselves in this position right where they just don’t really have much of a choice man oh I don’t know what type of All right let me see what the what the Twitter replies are let me see i think I think I have it right here hold on let me see something here let’s see well that’s not true when you was when Kyrie was playing with Luca he was more of a pass first type of guy he wasn’t If you actually saw him play with Luca he was actually pass first oh I got a signing ah all right i got All right let me see i mean no i mean he’s I mean yeah Kyrie is not the greatest defender but he’s a he I’m not going to say I’m not going to say this bro i’m going to say this he’s a willing defender i’m going to say that no Kyrie is a willing defender he is man and that’s a good that’s a good thing to do that’s what that’s what we saying with Cam he has to be a willing defender and he’s really not half the time he don’t look to play defense yeah he he does try like he’ll he’ll get a little physical like you saw what he did to Steph bro he’s not doing that every game who’s that kyrie uh Cam Thomas oh no no no no no no no no no he might have a few games here and there where he might try to play defense but it’s not good it’s still bad all right so this this article was actually saying that um knock the can bro it’s just he’s not what y’all think he is like y saying he’s like what what do y’all want him to be like don’t let Breezy hear this man hold on don’t let Breezy hear this cuz like he’s he’s he’s always somewhere lurking man and and I want Hey I want Cam still on his roster i just don’t think that he needs to be the franchise guy i mean what’s wrong with what’s wrong be what like what’s up with these NBA fans bro what’s wrong being the sixman what’s wrong with being the the third option like what’s wrong with being Well I don’t know he doesn’t see himself as I don’t know about the All-Star Dwi i don’t know man i don’t know i mean bro first of all if you want to be the All-Star there’s a lot of politics and you have to be like you have to be one yeah there’s a lot of stuff that goes into the Allstar let me see nba and he doesn’t have the fame or anything like that to be in to consider the Allar uh let’s see roster here not like the other guys because you got power yeah you got to have you got to have a major impact on winning too though that’s that’s that’s the key to to actually really making it you can’t be like a bottom bottom feeder team and then like uh um so y think y’all think he’s a a allstar over who paid um Brunson uh Harden I mean uh Dame Lillard i’m just nameing the East Guards jaylen Brunson uh Garland yeah garland yeah yeah tyler Herro hero some people Some people actually really think uh that Cam Thomas is better than Tyler Herro tyler Herro though man but no Tyler Herro had a he had I this probably was this probably was like his best season yeah and you look at the assist numbers 5.5 assists 5.5 rebounds those went up from like Yeah two three to like five like Yeah so now you got Evan Moy no I don’t think Cam Thomas will ever make a um not even the East or West bro he’s not making it who he making it dwabi um but yeah Dane made it too he average actually maybe he could many minutes Bruss was playing his first year wasn’t even playing that much so Tatum is going to be out front bro like come on now yeah tatum Tatum is going to be out right so Tam was scoring 10 cam was scoring like 10 points too his first year um yeah I don’t think he’ll it it’s possible i don’t know over who begin no I’m just saying cuz Tayum is going to be out dame is going to be out like they both tore their Achilles so they’re going to put a they’re going to put an allstar who’s on I mean it all it all depends on like Cam Thomas in terms of his play and can he actually really truly impact winning man like the net you can’t be an 11 seed right and that’s not his average though he wasn’t he wasn’t averaging 30 his first year and and just like what this article was actually saying right it was saying that where was it and cuz I don’t want you I don’t want you guys saying “Yo BK be hating you be hating.” All right so stands you know they just going to defend their man bro um it says “As much as Thomas has been elite for the Brooklyn Nets over the last two seasons putting up incredible scoring numbers the team has stayed stagnant right uh the Nets suffered yeah seasons in which they weren’t they were the very bottom of the NBA man you know so um if you look at like let’s say if you was to take K Cunningham and and put him on this roster right they they make the playin tournament or at least that to do anything oh what do I saying um like does it really matter like all you talking about is scoring bro like he says would you take on Jere contract for pick 13 um I can name players at Cam’s age that are far better than him like so what’s your point yeah exactly this is what I was saying or too about uh um um Jeremiah Fierce he can’t shoot he is shooting 28% from three right almost like let’s say let’s round it off 29 29 i think he’s a decent mid-range shooter though yeah but he I don’t know because these guys can actually you want shooters i feel you i get what you’re saying yeah yeah yeah yeah so Orin doesn’t like he doesn’t like uh Jeremiah Fierce i mean he is shifty though man nobody’s saying he doesn’t have potential but you got to acknowledge that Cam has Yeah and that’s the thing we had look at like guys like Dennis Smith Jr Russell Westbrook uh uh Ben Simmons right you know all came into the league right and and and were very poor shooters and you figure like in the off season that’s the least they can actually do and it’s not hard um you just get a bunch of guys right get two or three guys to rebound the ball for you and just work on your three-point shot right and pay those guys like you like Ben Simmons got like 170 something million dollars man you telling me you can’t pay three guys and get like a really good shooting coach to actually um uh work on your three you know in the offseason so if they if these guys can’t do it you know I’m not saying Jeremiah Fears won’t but I mean I rather get somebody in here that can actually make it three especially at at 6’2 and you can’t shoot better off drafting Jagor uh I don’t know man i mean 68 what what is he 6’8 69 68 69 whatever listen in order for you to be and you know this DJ in order for you to be a really really really efficient passer you got to be a scoring threat man you know like you have to be like a real scoring threat what are you doing with another Ben Simmons maybe yeah and he was averaging like I think 10 points a game in college oh no that that that really kind of scares me i mean he’s really like a backup right now plus he has to get stronger um I don’t know we’ll see if his shooting his jump shot actually really translates into the NBA um but if he if he he’s struggling to score against like college guys you can imagine like the guys in the pros man well whoever what about Malawatch um I mean yeah I’m going do a video on him cuz I was looking at him in the Olympics um they said he’s better than Joel Embiid now than with you know than I I don’t know i don’t know cuz like I think I think he did himself a disservice by going to Duke man if I was him I I would have went to a college where like the offense is like centered around me they really used him as a role player you know like just like a guy that just like really set screens and and and and that’s his strength right there man oh you got John i don’t see I don’t see Cam making it in five years n because yeah you’re right that the dudes who are all star right now they will be out the league or drop off they’ll be older but they’ll still be better players than game like you have Kade Tyrese them dudes not going nowhere um Garland like them dudes is not going nowhere bro uh well again Desmond Bane is damn like like when he’s on he’s like borderline like an allstar caliber player man yeah um that’s the reason why he got the five first round picks for him now not every player can make the All-Star team but like he’s there on Desmond y’all forget Desmond is really nice bro desmond good to be honest in the playoffs he he really the only him and uh JJ are like the only two role players that actually like step up in the playoffs yeah yeah j he kind of stays stagnant he doesn’t really I mean I don’t know what they gonna do with job Jonathan thinks that is an overpay so what all right all right so if Desmond Bri’s got worse though thinking that’s a future that’s their only like they got better in the future with you i didn’t even read I didn’t read the details of the trade cuz like I just I just woke up like about an hour ago like I I saw it uh the trade but I didn’t really read the full details you know it depends on like what picks these guys actually get but um Cam since I’m overrating Garland i said one thing about Garland you over here in the comments glazing Cams right now i mean I don’t know about Zenobay man like Orlando is going to be like really at the top right now man you know cuz that like like Desmond Bane can actually give you between 20 and 25 points per game and you got Paulo Ben Carroll then you have um what the was it Wagner what’s what’s his first name uh you talking about Mo Wagner yeah moagna yeah yeah yeah yeah that’s a that’s a that’s a good you know big three right there man um and Jonathan’s actually saying “Is this a good risk downfall?” Yeah man cuz like Boston’s not going to be there man boston doesn’t want to get into the second apron and they don’t want to like they don’t want to pay it’s a new ownership group man they Oh wait bk because he said you mean France you talking about Fron or Cuz there’s two fr fr france yeah cuz there’s two Wagers on the team yeah i think both of them are pretty good though yeah my bad or I mean there’s two Wagner on the team i didn’t know which one he was talking about yeah yeah yeah yeah there’s the the um France Wagner and both of them are pretty good no Orlando might that’s tough they going to be I love Desmond Desmond Bane puts a lot of pressure on the defense man like he can score he Mo is not trash at all mo is good he’s a very good backup point or center yeah he’s going to put he’s he’s going to provide why is Brooklyn not making any of these moves man they just staying like I don’t know they stay in pack what What assets do we have no we got pick outside of picks i mean we got we got give players too nobody wants our players our players trash [Laughter] and and Orin that works perfectly for them because he plays well in that role yeah man yeah Shawn Marks really kind of decimated this team well Jonathan they could still You never know bro m the Magic I always said this bro the Magic they they can always they always had something up their sleeve bro so they could still make a move they could still move off wait wait if you look at this Magic roster now with Desmond Bane are they better than better than the Knicks i think they got more depth but I don’t think they’re better okay i think they could take I think now they could definitely take them because like they got way more depth than the Knicks right now and you seen that depth can just kill the Knicks i mean outside of the the Knicks starters they don’t got nobody bro so yeah the Orlando Magic can give them a run for their money and the Cavs first of all I’m gonna be real the Magic’s gonna beat the Cavs if they ever face each other again in the playoffs magic is nice bro like what what is what’s wrong with the Grizzlies like now you about to pay uh Jiren Jackson Jr on this money you still got J on this team like they roster got worse yeah I don’t know i mean I like Jiren Jackson Jr though man um yeah but you overpay for him i think they talking about 300 million 200 million something like that i’m not I don’t think but he hasn’t really shown any kind of like and but you know like he has to get the ball man i mean there’s certain scenarios where like if you go into the playoffs um like in half court sets I just think that like they should run their offense to Jiren Jackson Jr man like and you know he can overpower guys where Jo can’t you know um hey Jonathan come up here bro all right let me get the link in for Jonathan over here man i mean it’s Bro first of all you got to thank John Desmond Bane outperforms Cam Johnson and Drew Holiday on consistent basis and Chris Aspilians so nah he’s not those dudes that you’re naming are not going to go for that all maybe KD will he says do I think Memphis wants to build around J at the moment man well at least I mean can if Contab is club will Pope can actually hit threes i guess they’re looking more for like a guy who could spot up and not create as much you know like I I don’t know but then you’re asking J to do more well I mean you if you going to pay $300 million to Jam Jackson Jr man like he has to step up man you know I was in the West that’s not enough yeah yeah that’s the I had Memphis i actually had Memphis heading into next season better than what they was now i don’t think they going to even make it out the play i think that the city got to I mean that team got to move out of Memphis man uh go to Vegas maybe Seattle or something like that memphis is like I don’t know man it’s just like I’mma be real bro i don’t think you can win with a championship or even get deep into the playoffs with John like I’mma be real bro no we got Jonathan we got Jonathan up here man hey guys yeah I was surprised like I don’t think anybody was expecting the Magic in Memphis to pull this off but five first round picks and think about this one of the picks that Memphis got was the Sun yeah Jonathan you broke you’re breaking up all right he’ll be back his phone next wait wait can you hear me i hear you now go ahead yeah listen i listen that was I think it’s a bit of an overall but I understand why the Magic did it you know given that Boston’s going to be down this year they want to capitalize in opportunity i think Apollo Fron and Desmond trio could be fun how’s their bench going to be because you just took a massive gamble to get a third piece in Desmond what’s your bench i think that’s Yeah but Desmond Desmond is not a gamble though he could actually play he could score man he could hit threes yes but it’s it’s definitely a gamble though for the Magic they have to be at least a top five playoff team this year to justify that big hole they gave up well well remember now what this season the reason why they were so like if you actually look at their percentage in threes bro their percentage is bad like they can’t shoot right that’s why they got Desmond because he shoots 41% win though yeah you realize he’s not he’s not just a spot up guy man i mean have a good deep bench bro they only gave up two players and those two players wasn’t even performing at at all like you like eight points kcp was giving you like nine they wasn’t doing anything no listen memphis it worked out really good for them i think for the Magic I think the starting five looks really good it’s just how’s your bench it’s just how that bench going to look the offseason that’s what the Magic have to figure out but they definitely got their three guys to now build with so that’s interesting yeah they still got Jonathan Isaac he’s under contract for like I think four years then they got uh they still they’re going to resign Mo Wagner i don’t think he’s going to want to leave his brother so he might take less yeah i I think Magic is still going to make a lot of moves but this was definitely a shocking way to kick off what Sham said is going to be one of the most craziest summers ever so we didn’t expect this so what’s going to happen next it’s going to be quite interesting thing but now you wonder with role guys it seems like you thought the Mid Kel thing it would end but now you got another guy in So that’s going to be interesting to see yo I ain’t gonna lie bro the Magic lowkey type fleece the the the Grizzlies bro how do the Grizzlies not get uh Jet Howard out of the deal hey they got that that Suns 2026 first so if they decide to blow things up they have a pretty much a guaranteed lottery pick the following year i think Memphis may not like Bandits on that on the draft capital side of it well it’s not it’s not the WB it’s not about thinking high of Bane it’s just that’s what the Magic desperately needed they needed a guy like Bane so that’s going to work out well for him yeah my my boy Oh my boy he had sent me something over here man about the uh Koopa flag thing and they saying that there was some rumors out there hold on where was it over here man y’all underrating the Magic bro um yeah sure the Grizzlies got better long term but I mean they’re not going to do nothing in the playoffs now check this out someone on Twitter posted this and it’s going to blow your mind for reference this post was made over a month ago before the Mavs won the draft lottery league sources say NBA officials began nudging conversations between Dallas and LA as early as February 2024 but he goes on to say “Here’s the kicker according to two insiders close to the Mavericks front office Dallas didn’t make that trade blindly in private combos the NBA allegedly assured them they’d be taken care of.” Even the biggest conspiracy theorists in NBA history knew the fix was in this year but wait that’s not it it gets even crazier we know how important LA and specifically the Lakers are to the success and ratings of the NBA well peep this going all the way back to 2011 every time a franchise changing star was traded to LA the very next season the team that traded the star was rewarded the number one pick in the draft and on top of that all three of those drafts had a player that was a generational can’tmiss prospect is that merely a coincidence or is something else going on here now listen I’m not really into conspiracies but when you look at the NBA What y’all think about that man who the hell was that one of my boys yeah sent me that man it was off of Instagram i mean it might be true bro i mean they could have had conversations before the season yeah before the probably season started oh yeah they was definitely tinkering with the Dallas thing i mean what did Nico say defense wins championships you might as well said they were guaranteeing a Cooper at that point like I think I can believe it i believe it i mean they was hanging out during the summer yeah and with the Spurs thing they want to capitalize Wemby’s win they want to build around him as a European star um I don’t know man i I I see only conspiracy I’m thinking is I was saying all this whole season that Cooper Flag cannot go to a team like Brooklyn the Wizards right because he’s not ready to go out there and score 20 to 25 points per night right he’s just not i mean there’s still there’s still a couple of things he has to work on you know in terms of his basketball game uh he needs to go to a team like Dallas right because they had hyped this kid up so much right saying that he’s a generational talent which he’s not a generational talent he’s not there will be more Cooper flags coming out in the next like five to seven years man there will be um so he had to go to a team like Dallas if a fears and Thomas a back court can work so yeah what’s your what’s your what’s your take on this though Jonathan um this this is netcast over here bobby is hating on Bane right now bro this is Well well from what I’ve heard is that Jeremiah Fear is at the top of the Nets draft board he’s kind of been in New York for almost a month now and he’s kind of learned New York lingo so it seems like the Nets made a commitment that if he lands somehow around eight that they would draft him i think getting fears would be great for the Nets i think he’s the second best point guard in this draft he’s definitely working on getting stronger he’s got three level scoring potential defensively he has some things to work on there but I think there’s a lot of good potential and upside with him now how does he pair with Thomas i think he has the point guard thomas has the two that could be something fun i don’t know how long term it is but I think you’ll definitely get something exciting from your back court whereas it’s not just going to be Thomas doing all the scoring anymore so I think that would be some good upside for the Nets to work with with that back court but you don’t you don’t agree with this on the screen right now exactly jdj I was saying the same thing man before you I went over his whole scouting report and um because I do I do I I do agree with JDJ bro i think it’s gonna be awful defensively that’s why you got to get a center in this draft you need a big that can come but a center is not going to help you first of all your back court has to play defense bro what does the center have to do with that no I agree with you totally but if they want to try to magnify making this work a little bit you got to get wings in this draft the best you can the middle part of the portion you got to get it big we got to move off of Claxton that’s not working yeah and you know JP JP makes a good point because I I forgot to even mention this do y’all want to wait my fault y’all want to give off of Claxton and Don i would hate Don he could bring back power forwards and centers around the league they they not really impact players man we can get I think Malawatch is better than like Dron Sharp right yeah but he’s not in our draft plans apparently i’ve heard that Malawak’s not even in our draft plans with Unfortunate if we do draft him at eighth say if he goes eighth y’all think he’s better than Kison and Dron maliwok yeah defensively he’s really good he really is i think Dron is a great rebound i don’t know bro dead wrong rebounds the ball well bro I just don’t that’s just such a We need him to score he has to be able to like like finish around the rim yeah I know is horrible yeah yeah what are you guys thoughts on Noah Sen you kind of saw a little bit we did international play do you think he has potential to maybe be a good two-way win oh the last the last live stream I I did a the about 11 days ago I did a know where San video on him man that y’all was saying he was the next Giannis remember you were saying the next Giannis that was started by NBA media man not me i didn’t start that i didn’t Grizzlies got worse like right now we like their bench DJ if you saw Memphis’s bench after that trade the bench looks so bad it’s mostly guards off the bench you got to make some moves exactly bro there’s too many gods it’s straight buns bro like he’s buns like I don’t know how he even got into the league i This is what I think they’re going to do i think they’re going to trade one of of of JJ or or John Moran build around one of them because they have to make another move that can’t be your bench but I agree with y’all in the comments though longterm yeah they got better of course they got to put some picks for him i mean yeah I think they’re worrying about long term right now bro they They worrying about building up this core for uh playoff success bro no Magic is definitely I Wait wait so wait do you actually you do you guys agree with Netcast i mean do is is Cam Thomas in the actual plans if they do draft for Jeremiah Fierce or what do you guys what do you guys actually think about that they got to resign Thomas they’re going to resign Thomas because you need control of his of his uh contract and you want to have the flexibility if you get him under market value deal it benefits you long term if you ever decide to move off of him so yeah you got to resign Thomas this summer if you draft feeders you see that let me ask you but Cam doesn’t even give off the type to even like leave i don’t know he just don’t seem like the type to just like leave though where would he go where would he go though dj we talked about this a million times nobody has the cap space to give him anything close to what he wants other than Brooklyn so I feel like it’s really in the in a lot of people saying he wants this one has he actually said that he hasn’t said what he wants he said it’ll be worked out that’s last thing I heard he said it’ll be worked out he believes well his mother like one of my one of my co-workers knows his mother and his mother would be happy and not not Cam Thomas but his mom’s really doesn’t want Cam Thomas here you know she does not want to be in New York they from like the south in Virginia like yeah so um if Thomas does leave his moms would be really really happy about that I remember people in his inner circle was Miami will be a dream place i was like what is Miami they don’t have a need for Miami have a need for Cam it’s hard to find i was like Miami i was like bro why would Cuz even Nets fans on Twitter was talking about all take him trade him to Miami i was like bro Pat Riley would have and uh uh what’s her name east would have him on the bench bro well you you saw Hold on i wanted to point this out um he hates Yo they hate guys like Cam over there bro they don’t if you don’t play no defense bro you ain’t getting on the court yeah you got to guard man you have to play D cuz like like I said if you don’t play defense um That’s why got benched the whole season what’s that that’s why Terry Roier got benched the whole season it was horrible yeah cuz you got to like send help man you’re not You don’t want to just give up easy layups you know they got to actually send help and that’s going to leave i want to coach like Eric Spoler or Greg Papovich type bro i want I want a system like that dj do you think uh Miami is going to make the ultimate bid to get K right now or do you think it’s really down to Houston and the Spurs no Miami don’t have anything to offer nah they would depleted if they get KD right now they have to give up or Bam or somebody so n they’re going to keep Bam here they’re going to try to do a big three but they’re gonna have to give up combination of Jaime Hakez joic no wait hold on Jonathan who’s going to pick up Ma Watch man cuz like I I think it’s going to be the Pelicans they have I think it’s Come on i think it’s I think it’s the Pelicans because they need a big badly they don’t have a center i know they have the Missy kid but they need an actual starting big he’s a second year player now so and and I and I also think it could be Washington maybe they want another big to pair with Sar but I I don’t know it it could really go down to a few of those other teams i mean based on what I’m seeing from Malawatch I mean you can probably get him at 18 20 something cuz like just look at his skill set and what he’s like he’s not really drafted 18 to 20 he’s the best big in this draft right now they need There’s a couple teams that need bigs i don’t think he’s going to go that low no I’m just saying based on his skill set like he’s not jok That’s that’s that’s a pick and roll like finisher man i mean and that’s He’s a better Taco is that what you’re trying to say he’s a better Taco F he’s a what no mali Waters way better footwork than Taco nah mal has way better footwork than Taco no yeah cuz like Memphis took Zack Edy like high last year and I was like “Hold on man the ninth right that was a ninth pick.” Yeah i said “You can get Zack Edy in like the like the like the 25th pick he wasn’t ready yet man like he’s not Yeah i was like why jag is going to be one of them like late game boomers type it’ll be interesting to see where Queen really goes in this draft i don’t know where he could go he could go anywhere from I think now 10 to 15 right now i I think he really did bad on some of his combines he did bad on some of his combines athletically he didn’t do well i think um he did bad on some defensive running uh drills so I really think he fell a little bit outside of top eight or top 10 i don’t know JP if you had a chance to try to to get Ace Bailey right um they have Brandon Williams though BK wait it makes no sense for for Hornets to get ace when they already have Brandon Williams brandon Williams plays the two guard though he can play two guard or small forward so it can work maybe but they do need a big I hear that Mark Williams they want you know what’s funny they said they want to trade Mark Williams for the same offer the Lakers want to give them they’re not going to get the same offer for Williams due to his injury history man i think draft I like I like that charlotte Ace Bailey and Charlotte yeah maybe but I don’t like him in Philly like at all he He doesn’t fit man i really don’t understand what Philly’s doing i think they asking Paul George to play the power forward spot i think they’re going to draft Edgecomb i think Philly’s drafting Edgecom dj you heard what they said about the management came to see Edgecom and Ty another guard no no I think he fits that back court that they want with Maxi and McCain right now i don’t think Ace fits with those guys but I think Edgecom can get fit off of Paul George and Joel well they got to break that up if if yours you just get rid of wait all right when I did my my my my two-part scouting report on Ace Bailey right Jonathan was calling me crazy how did he how did he fall to number four he was supposed to be like the number three pick what happened Jonathan i think it really came down to the measurements like when they found out he was 6’7 everybody was like “Oh this guy was 6’11.” I’m like “Oh well okay.” Now some people are reneggging on him i wasn’t high on AC in the beginning so you you just you just gonna say that just measurements right okay he needs development he needs development remember guys I was the one who had him ranked third between Cooper and Harper i didn’t have him as my top and everybody was saying that he would be the breakout guy he’s had a horrible season bro he’s got to work on a lot of different things i think he’s got scoring form but he needs to get stronger physically defensively could be a lot better his offense needs to be unpredictable less predictable like he’s got those things to work on but if if you had a chance to trade up for a guy like that you should want to take a chance especially if your team doesn’t have a lot of core pieces right this is cra like they really allow Philly to get the third pick bro no you know what would be crazy if Ace falls between Utah and the Wizards imagine the two teams that tank the most and they somehow wind up with Ace Bailey just dropping in their lap that would be crazy they trying everything they can they doing anything they can to help Philly bro so the Nets wait there was another article over here the Nets are actually trying to trade up and get C uh uh the second pick but it doesn’t look like the San Antonio Spurs are actually uh budging man they’re not they’re not everything I hear they’re keeping that pick huh everything I’ve heard they’re keeping that pick i think the Nets would have to give a crazy offer to get it they probably be like four picks something like that i don’t think we can get Harper unfortunate i think we missed the boat on that i will say this the Spurs 14th pick is up for grabs from everything I’ve heard if the Nets could somehow put Cam Johnson two late picks on the table we might be able to get that 14th pick that might be our I thought he said he wanted to trade up yes the 14th pick that’s trading up we’re going from potentially a 26 27 You was like you wanted to trade Cam Johnson further up not just 14th no the way it is do you agree with me that the way Cam Johnson act cuz I was arguing with somebody in the comment section a couple yeah he he was you know over did he play like a allstar caliber player am I am I bugging like he was doing i mean he was doing everything he was putting the ball on the floor oh Cam Cam Cam Johnson uh this season this is this past season no I don’t think Allstar caliber but he had to be a second or third option this year BK given how bad the roster was we all understand no no but he wasn’t playing just like a spot up shooter man like he was he was doing different things he had his best he had his best stats let’s remember this too if he’s on a contending team let’s say OKC for example he’s like he’s likely a fourth and fifth guy but here’s what works in our favor after this big Desmond Bane trade I think Johnson’s value has gone up to at least the Nets maybe getting a second lottery pick and a future 27 28 pick for Johnson at this point though because you got to prove it on both teams like you got to be able to do that on on good teams and bad teams yeah and I think the good thing is he was still showing like he was mix he was doing everything he was like catching the shoot coming up screens putting the ball on the floor like make so what makes you an allstar like to me right you could you could honestly argue he probably was our best player you you can argue that you can have an actual argument about that yeah and he it wasn’t like I saw little spurts of it in like when he was with Phoenix but it was consistent this past season man like consistent it wasn’t just like a game here or a game like three games four games i was like I said “Whoa.” I said “Where was this Cam Johnson at?” Man it was good for the first three months but then the second half he kind of went “Yo he was the best player.” They should They should have traded him i’m still Cam got hurt so I can see why he was the best i mean he was the best player kim got hurt he didn’t really DJ do you think now the Nets could get two picks if they trade him to move up because now the fact that we have 11 it might work to our advantage now that we have the cap space and Johnson is not Bane bane was averaging like 22 points this season hey listen cam Johnson was averaging like 19 you know like and he didn’t really play as much okay okay that’s around the same i’ll tell you this i would be happy if we could move up in this draft trading him for a second pick and getting a pizza pick at this point bane Bane plays defense like as short as his arms are he actually plays defense bro yeah johnson is most shooter he can move his feet and he’ll take charges yeah yeah yeah we can all agree John strong like I like he’s just just really just strong yeah johnson’s mostly a spot shooter but we could also agree too at the end of the day if a team really does value him if the Nets can somehow get one no he was listen no in Phoenix yeah the Phoenix Cam Johnson you would say “All right give me the 14th pick all right I’ll take that the way Jim Charleston was playing this past season I was like but that was three good months let’s remember we have to remember this too this is where we have to come down to facts right now he’s going to be 30 next year yes i think given the fact that Desme got traded for five picks means that other guys trade values have gone up slightly for Johnson being 30 because those guys that you’re talking about aren’t DesJ we’re talking about Cam Johnson you can come let’s be real i think he’s 28 years old i don’t think it’s Bane bro they for the past like five six years have been bowling bro so of course his value is going to be high no listen but for Cam Johnson right now if we could come away with moving up in this draft if we if we could move up a few but DJ if we can move up in this draft and get a another pick in this draft and get a future protected John at this point that’s hold up you can actually point to times in the playoffs where he out him and JJ outperformed Jar Morant in the playoffs bro no listen I think Desmond Bane has been a good scoreer now can he do it by himself of course not he’s as he’s mostly being a third guy but I would say this for Cam Johnson right now if you could come away with a pick in this draft and a future protected pick that’s the best value I think you could get for Cam Johnson at this point you’re not getting a Desmond Bane package that’s for sure i know some people were busting balls about that happen at this point i was fine with one but given the fact it’s I think two is the best right now at this point because we have leverage now we have the cap space to work with we have a chance to help give a team at the deadline i could have sworn it was like two three no there was one a lot of people offing one but now the stakes have changed now i don’t think I don’t think it’s going to go up one i don’t think it’s going to go up one i if we can move up in this draft picking a player I think that’s that’s more realistic picking a player is fine i’m fine with picking a player but far best yeah two okay two picks and a player yeah here’s another thing what type of pick are we talking about here’s another thing i’d be fine if we don’t get another pick in this draft maybe a 2026 pick and a future 2028 protected pick from a team for Kansas we need more 2026 picks first round 2026 picks yeah I’m like that’s a good deal for the next in the in the Yeah if we don’t get a second lottery pick but we get a future 2026 pick for Johnson I’m fine with that too like we got to get either another pick in this draft i agree with that bobby is right though bk Cam Johnson was looking for the door bro that’s why he played like that yeah he wanted it out listen this guy was saying a whole bunch of [ __ ] oh I love it here i’m ready to help this team win no he’s You know you can’t believe no player comes through to Barclays and says they love your hair bro cuz they they all leave like they don’t well he’s he’s also 30 years old he’s not exactly as young spring chicken anymore like he wants 29 he just turned 29 years old about to be 30 like that’s why you got to train listen 30 years old i mean you’re not like I’m not saying he’s like MJ but Michael Jordan was 30 years old winning championships man that’s not old that’s Michael Jordan this is Cam Johnson no I mean he still had his athleticism it wasn’t like he like he was Washington Wizards michael Jordan is what I’m I’m trying to say man cliff at 30 years old still the age factor plays a small look at Kevin Durant right now he’s likely going for a smaller hall than whatever we got for him because he’s 37 and he’s on a one-year contract right now 37 and he had he had a catastrophic injury man you know like you can compare a 37y old to a 30-y old yeah j why do you do talk about Cam Johnson as if he’s old bro no but I’m trying I’m trying to put perspective what people would want for Cam Johnson at this point if you come with if you come in with two picks at this point it’s the best you can get because if if Marks doesn’t trade Cam Johnson we’re stuck getting maybe a pick in the future for him which that’s not really good value at that point that’s why you got to trade him this year like it’s the best chance to trade him no first of all the best chance was to trade him when his value was at his highest peak when he was playing when he was bowling in the season i agree and DJ you heard me saying now bro the season is pretty much Well now we have the leverage now now we have the $50 million of cap space because other teams need us to facilitate now if other teams want Cam Johnson we can maybe negotiate getting a second pick somehow even if it’s protected we can negotiate that now because we have the ability to get them the player they want yeah i think Do you guys actually think that um San Antonio is willing to give up that second round pick for Cam Johnson what’s What second round pick i’m talking about the 14th pick for Cam Johnson not the second no you said 14th yeah 14th 14th pick the way he played no what are you talking about cam Johnson’s not going to get you Dylan Harper man at least not by himself well listen we could trade him for the second pick though hold on the fourth is Assa like he could go for we could package up him and try all right hold on hold on hold on hold on cam Cam Cam Johnson is better than this dude over here this is the 14th pick right here projected you know he’s projected to be the 14th pick so his NBA comparison is Drew Good bro no he’s saying the 14th pick like John getting the 14th pick is great i mean listen 14 pick there’s some trade though there is some good options around that middle bracket rashia Fleming the guy’s got a seven nine wingspan he could be a good wing option for us uh Derek Queen he’ll probably be around that bracket in the NBA years you’re old first of all I don’t even know if you if you can even call these players old because you got KD still balding now you still got Steph ball now and LeBron James BK this guy prospect uh struggle can go for it bro and here’s another thing here’s another thing let’s say we draft Noah S with our lottery pick if we move up in this draft we can get Jagger Dem with the 14 pick get our point guard and get our wing there’s different ways to navigate this bk BK don’t want Jagor i know i don’t know what BK’s what problem is he love Ben Simmons so much this guy better than Ben i do agree with him though i mean Jaor does just his offense is horrible yeah he needs work on it but you can’t teach 68 height and you can’t teach playmaking ability if you don’t have if you don’t have the offensive skill set to do anything with that you got to see him develop it under a coaching staff you can’t say “Oh this guy’s offense will never develop until he actually gets the right coaching staff.” I mean Jonathan when when has our our our point guard spots ever been developed well like I said the mo mostly like That’s a fair point DJ but let’s remember Jordy is the point guard whisperer so maybe he can find something with Jagger Deard if that was the truth he would have turned Cam Cam Thomas into a point guard i know i’m surp I’m surprised he did but I understand why why is this bro why y’all be overhyping Jordy bro but you you just saying No I’m just saying because Jordy was doing a lot with the point guard this year and that’s why he had Do on the team this how y’all get sold the the the the Nets Kool-Aid bro like y’all drink the Nets Kool-Aid y think I’m not talking in practice and telling guys to run and all this other stuff y’all think he’s a great coach that don’t mean nothing bro all right so let me say this real quick i remember Killian Hayes what he was doing in the G-League right did you see our record when he gets up into like the the actual NBA right to hold on yeah ap what’s good man um um no i mean when when when Killian Hayes went down to the actual G-League right getting like 24 points 25 points um but then when he gets into like doing that yeah exactly so so you can’t be poo pooing what I’m saying about Ja though um he can’t listen okay i I understand Jagger needs development of work but already has certain things that you look for that you want in a player desperately right and you know what we have to see how he develops he’s a project essentially dealing with another Ben Simmons in at that point n listen demon I think he could be better because he’s either he has to be healthy as long as Jagger is healthy and involving his game probably you say wait hold you saying he could be better than Ben Simmons Cuz you know Ben Simmons was like he had a he was an allar no he’s not oh my gosh let’s not re let’s not reopen the past with that crap everybody’s done this a million times no you hold on you actually opened the door you said no i shut that door multiple times in your face on that we talking about years oh my gosh yes yes yes bk he had some good highlight moments and then he crashed and burned moment about his accolades oh my gosh that the last time Ben Simmons was relevant I think I graduated high school yeah listen stop i want to strangle you sometimes man yo you ain’t you a BK so stop you ain’t Bro he’s not going to answer your question BK okay yes yes yes wait wait the first three years yes he was defensive player and all that that Ben Simmons had more upside ben Simmons had more upside potential than but it was only three years yeah but we don’t know we don’t know was that Hall of Fame wait wait wait jaguar can reach that height bro how do you No I think I think for us at all i think for us Jagor could be a good point guard project we do this bro yeah but we looking we looking for somebody that could score too man not only just pass so no you got to be listen you got to be you have to be an explosive scorer you have to be a really good scorer in order to be a good passer like you got to let him develop bk you ready to write hold on we’re not Philly’s development system bro we don’t develop players like the Anyway I think I think we getting too fresh props DJ you the one said they have Yes you saw what they did with Maxi oh my god yes yes maxi was good but Maxi said they develop good oh boy uh oh boy who uh um uh uh what’s his name you talking about the gay though uh McCain they just picked good players they ain’t develop they ain’t develop players i give Philly props for how they develop guards bro they didn’t develop Ben Simmons ben Simmons didn’t want to develop no they told me he doesn’t have to score imagine telling a first round hold on you’re lying bro you’re lying because you already there’s only one basketball you already had Joel and But if you’re no more pick don’t you want to prove your game but if you’re more of arguing what are y’all y’all arguing in circles right now them niggasm [ __ ] [ __ ] is not good period man we need somebody else to score man coach Brett Brown bro he said he doesn’t want Ben Simmons in sport bro that was in development system bro that’s why he got fired but why didn’t Ben Simmons take it upon himself to actually say “Screw what you’re saying i’m number one pick i’m going to improve my offense.” Because he was pampered and then when he didn’t get pampered when Doc Oh he was pampered and BK this is the whole fame resume for Ben Simmons he got pampered bk when when that coach was there i think it was Brett Brown he [ __ ] really arguing Ben Simmons why arguing Ben did this months ago i did this months ago with him y like Ben Simmons ain’t nobody to argue with i ain’t going to lie brought up he’s better than he’ll be better than Ben Simmons you said I said Jagger Demond has the potential if he actually develops the offensive game everything else comes together he has Yeah but we don’t we don’t know that John we don’t we don’t even know that like Anthony Bennett wasn’t even I’m saying Anthony Bennett wasn’t better than Ben Simmons so we don’t we don’t know ap we don’t know i I want AP I want to give the kid a chance BK like always right so you can’t you can’t say he could be Ben Simmons you don’t know what he could be I’m not hold you say that Igor is the next Ricky Rubio people take that as like I’m insulting but Ricky Rubio was a decent pro right like like a good backup that’s Gary Gary came in here blowing guns already that’s what I’m talking but Gary N agree I agree with you Gary i agree with you that good no I’m just saying you know he’s going to be like an allstar guard i think he’s going to have a career like Rub eight points and like six assists yeah but you can say the same thing about Carter Bryan right now he’s averaging six points right now but could he maybe be a potential all right can All right can y’all watch Ego can Ego drive to the rim is he good at that a little bit a little bit a little bit a little bit okay all right offense i can’t have an opinion on him cuz I I ain’t watch him play he don’t he don’t do it often so you don’t even I would say that Jaguar would be a good counterbalance to Thomas because he could set Thomas up for a lot of his buckets and he’s got the height factor and he can find We have to see how it develops that’s the question mark that is Jagger’s biggest question mark you really trust this development system over here in Brooklyn don’t you yo let me ask Can I ask Can I ask Gary a question what do you mean yo Gary can I ask you a question longheaded dumb coach we got over here uh well what um what um what you think we can get for Cam Johnson now since the bang train happened i I think two ones is reasonable like Sean Mars might be holding out for the right thing like I think get but I just don’t know who it’s coming from now like you don’t think it’s the Spurs like the Spurs uh I still see 14th pick i still see that 14th pick 14th in a future uh pick swap or maybe went from the second pick to the maybe I mean it doesn’t look like San Antonio is going to trade for KD now yeah I don’t I don’t see that either but why why would they want to Why would they want to draft Don Harvard that’s so many guards bro n try to use the two of them together i don’t know if they want to play i don’t know if they want to play first of all um I would I would trade Castle keep the pick i would But they both they both tall guards though they not They not short guards so Castle is like 66 but uh Arpa is like what 66 fox is 6’3 then you got Vel he’s 64 65 nah bro that’s not You got to pay Dear Fox i don’t That’s the thing is he worth $212 million no he’s not they’re not going to pay him that no I mean that’s what he’s asking for that’s what he’s going for it doesn’t matter what he asking for i mean not even the same type of So they’re going to trade Fox eventually you guys think you got to look at the timeline like the timeline with Fox fox is young fox is like 27 fox is like 27 n I I would even say they’re out of the KD running i really think it’s down between the Rockets and the Spurs right now it really is down to the Texas teams like I mean hold on AP AP and and and Gary is is kind of agreeing with me you can actually get more for Cam Johnson uh Jonathan you you’re saying the 14 picks wait wait wait BK i said two picks though because two picks but not not the second pick not the second pick though we could get 14 in the future hold up when he first came up here Yeah you’re not getting two that’s Yeah listen a great outcome would be a second liar pick and a future protected pick for Cam Johnson at this point i’ll take that that’s that’s value this boy i got you all i got you bro don’t worry about it be kind of cap bro he always does he has one lottery pick and one lottery protected pick yeah I would yeah that’s great you know what it is DJ remember a few months ago he said Gary said Cam Johnson now he’s trying to say that I’m overvaluing Cam Johnson like come on stop stop i mean I mean you was the second pick i remember that bro i rather I don’t know i’d rather keep if if it’s for the 14th pick I’d rather keep Cam Johnson man it’s not going to be It’s not going to be only for the 14th though it’s going to be like for future You want You want to keep Cam Johnson who’s 32 and give him a new contract is that what you’re really saying well again his game his game is not just predicated on like just straight athleticism you got to you got to trade him man his value is the highest right now and plus he don’t fit our time right bk y’all guys all right y guys want to be the Washington Wizards man probably the Washington game with the Cam Johnson what is your obsession wait what is your obsession with Cam Johnson john I got it right here first of all this is where you roll at the Wizards actually have a builtup young core right now bro they have a better core than we do they have a better hold on hold on hold on hold on i’m sorry i’m sorry y organization still suck hold on hold on hold on let me tell y guys trailblazers that That’s a thing all right what is your Wait yo this how y’all don’t watch basketball bro portland was made to the play bro what are you talking about yeah I don’t know what you talking about BK bk what is your obsession with they just extended Bill Johnson what is your obsession BK like well they in the West so I mean it’s not really yo first of all yo Kim Johnson doesn’t fit our timeline i don’t know why you come on hold up you name Portland BK can you tell me Portland’s young core right now do you know that young core that young core is good yo you know you know what it is Gary you know what it is the way you talking about Cam Johnson he sees Cam Johnson as a second star to get a start like what they got three hold up they got three switchable i ain’t even lie he also does it just to take the other side of the coin he knows that Cam Johnson’s not a borderline allstar player he gets it he just he likes to argue the other side it’s fine yeah he like to play No you do you do you like to play You like to play devil advocate bro you do that all the time gary got you there PK gary got you there gary right that’s a bad thing someone’s got to do it no what I’m saying is you guys are looking at Cam Johnson from his Phoenix Phoenix days listen yo look we looking at Cam Johnson we have to get first of all before his contract run up we have to trade him before his value go down why would we not want to trade him why would his value go down because there’s a possibility he might get hurt he’s getting older and his contract going to run out bro you can’t wait for No listen listen his contract could run out and then his trade value go down we going to trade him with one year left on his contract no my gosh bk do you not want a young core what’s that you not want a young core no he wants winning players remember BK wants winning players now even Houston even Houston had to get veterans man then they started turning things around man one had a whole young talk about young players only had two young they only had two young players then we can get some we just started our rebuild bro we just start we just got some AP and Gary can you read to BK the list of this roster that Cam Johnson was no one opted for read some names to him to refresh his brain some names next roster you’re talking about yeah this current roster this year that Cam Johnson was the number one we had two league we had two ways let’s talk yeah we had two Cam Johnson he played 20 games he had he had Johnson he had Tyrese weren’t them winning wait wait i remember them Hold on i remember them winning a lot of games as you guys know they were taking a lot of games cuz we have a we have a good We have a good coach that’s why we have a good coach i don’t know about we don’t need We don’t need We don’t We do have a good coach i ain’t saying we do have a good coach if If you say first of all he’s better than Jo Vaughn like if y’all don’t if y’all don’t think that then y half of the small wins Brooklyn got half the league is tanking BK do you remember that you remember after crappy rosters against us did you see our crappy record oh my gosh we beat we beat yo we beat the Rockets we beat the Rockets twice bk BK did you say the Rockets are going to win this year bk said the line BK said the Rockers going to win the championship going to the finals and they didn’t even make it and we seen Hold on can we seen the 2016 2017 2018 Warriors lose to bad before what are you talking about once again do you understand the narrative mean nothing regular season really all right listen it don’t mean nothing to you talking to n bro it don’t mean nothing dj’s right about that all right listen once again we not talking about it doesn’t mean now we just talking about how overrated BK rated the Rockets so we not we talking about All right but hold on we talking to BK very good is this They’re a year away i don’t think Yeah they went on game seven and the first two games i think Hold up i think I think they a year away maybe if they get KD then Yeah if they get KD or somebody like that hold on hey if if if uh Fred Van Fleet wasn’t shooting 20% from the three-point line maybe he had a good season yo stop first two games bro he didn’t His efficiency was bad that’s what he’s talking about i mean what what else do y’all want though uh Jaylen Green was horrible that series i ain’t lie people was hyping up Fred Van Vleet as if he was like the best efficient bro he was better than Did you see this man went 19 they talk about that’s good bro that was horrible bro horrible man that’s horrible all right so can y’all pull up Jaylen Green’s number what’s his number oh his number saying bro they all blamed it on Jaylen Green it wasn’t just Jaylen Green you had Fred Van oh no no we Shang% only reason only reason we blaming Only reason we blaming Jaylen Green cuz of BK bk was acting like like he didn’t stand throughout the whole series shouldn’t go no that was a Thompson ap AP that was Aman Thompson remember he said Aman Tops would be the number one option most nights yeah he said I mean game six that game five and six bro he was b No I’ll give it to you DJ game five and six he was I’ll give it to DJ on that one game five first two he was banned oh yeah yeah i’m not I’m not even talking about man Thompson i’m talking about Jaylen Green that’s Let me get Gary’s take on the actual topic of the show over here man so what do you think about this topic the netcast is saying that Trey Johnson and and Cam Thomas backcourt is not going to really work though man hold on let me let me pull up the actual Was it Jeremiah Fears wasn’t it Fears i I thought it was Jeremiah Fears i’m looking out jeremiah Fear Fears yeah trey Johnson is a two guard who can only score cam Thomas is a two guard who can only score no I’ll tell Trey Jeremiah Fears sorry it was Jeremiah Fear i’m not even trying to You got I like Cam Thomas i’m just like realistic on him cam Thomas is not going to be here long term right like Fears is potentially an all-star point guard i really think that right so if that means that Cam Thomas My bad go ahead Gary go ahead Gary go ahead if that means Cam Thomas has to go then Cam Thomas I don’t like I don’t want him to go but like Cam Thomas is very limited in what he does he does one thing he scores and he does it really well and I think he’s a really underrated scorer i think he is a premier scorer but it it’s not enough like you don’t see anyone playing in the finals that can’t play defense can’t play make can only do one thing those guys aren’t playing this late in the season so if you want to get there I would say AP and Barry I want so they’re saying over here Brooklyn Netcast if they’re planning to play affairs it must mean they’re not clearly investing long-term into Cam Thomas so what do you guys like look I don’t think they’re fully like I I think that’s half right i I don’t think they’re fully invested in Cam Thomas but Cam Thomas is a two and Fierce is a pure point guard who can score well he’s a first he’s not a pass for his point guard i just I just like they used to say the same thing about Stefon Marberry no Stefon Marberry was a pass first point guard who could score 30 is a Yes he was go watch him oh my gosh first point guard who could drop 30 beers is coming yeah but Fierce is not doing that cuz like he can’t shoot we don’t know we don’t know what can do he’s supposed to be in high school right now hold up fear shot 28% what are you talking about he can shoot i get it i I get it trying to work on his game more but he’s got the only Gary he just lied he said he can shoot i didn’t say he can shoot i said “No no I’m talking about John.” Did you see what he did with Oklahoma did you watch did Oklahoma That’s one of the things you see over there so y’all think we trade up do y’all think we trade up or y’all think we stay the same or y think we just trade i’ve seen teams try to trade up in the past it doesn’t really work out man i don’t know what it is bro i’m confident going to go eight i really am i think it’s I think we just gonna I just think we going to trade Cam Johnson and get a pick from him we need a point guard i don’t think anything so we definitely We definitely need a point guard that’s for sure definitely need a point guard cuz DLo ain’t cutting it we We only need to bring him back yeah i don’t I don’t Yeah yeah i know i remember Gary podcast said that At least DLO could shoot right i mean I’m just annoyed yeah last year he was just jacking up shots like I ain’t going to lie man here’s a question do you see Do you see the Nets drafting two point guards in this draft potentially having one star to one be a backup i think I think I think they draft one in the second I think they draft one in the second round i don’t I think the second round is going to go they’re going to take the big Chinese guy Chinese guy you think so they’re going they’re going to stash him right yeah I think so when do you think I would just What about Danny Wolf do you think he could be a big Danny Wolf do you think Danny Wolf could something like that hansen Yang is He’s 19 how How tall is Danny Wolf seven foot seven foot he’s seven foot could he be a center Gary though or is he strictly a forward no he’s a center i think I think we signing uh signing Sharp so I don’t You don’t need to bring back Sharp or CL yeah you can let the other go i think come back on a decent on a decent death we going to let First of all we got we got a lot of What was the point of signing him back just let him walk no Sharp Sharp did better this season than most of his season bro he has no he don’t have no trade nobody’s trading for him but he’s only 23 though that don’t matter i mean you seen plenty of 23 year olds that don’t have no trade value i think the Nets would have to sign that’s what I’m saying i think he’s going to get better i think the better if the Nets If the Nets don’t resign they have to sign and trade him well DJ if they don’t resign him they have to sign and trade him for something because he’s a restricted free agent so you have to get back i don’t care what we’re doing don’t bring him back and don’t bring Clson back bro the Nets could get too big for three more years like I’m saying you can trade you can find a trade for Claxton but Don I don’t care what we do with Did you guys hear the rumors that we going to bring back either though wait did you guys hear the rumors that the Nets should even be bringing back both did you guys hear the rumors that the Nets are involved in the KD trade that Claxton might go to the Suns we might get other assets that’s not that’s not the best somebody made that up we not The Suns don’t got enough you want to keep You want to keep Dron like if we could get If we get a pick in this draft I’ll keep Dron if we can trade Claxton yeah we get a big in this draft what’s the point of keeping Dron backup backup center back but we have We could potentially get a backup center too though we can get two we could get two bigs we get two point guards we might we might end up the guy you drafted in the second round isn’t going to be better he gonna be in Yeah he’s not going to be in the He’s going to be in G and all that you hate Don for no reason yeah i don’t know why I liked Dro hold up i was I was the biggest uh Dro fan up here bro no it’s better it’s me that doesn’t like Dron DJ supported Dron you don’t like Hold up you don’t like Claxton what you mean like Dron i don’t like Droni either the event you know he No BK didn’t like D BK didn’t like neither from like the start i mean uh hold up i was a Don and Clson fan from the start i I I just started getting off of him i don’t like I don’t want to say well you don’t like him i mean as a backup center I’m not saying he’s going to be a starting center as a backup center why is Dron no good on contract we could get somebody better though like one of Dron’s Danny isn’t Danny Wolf better than Dron right we But we don’t know that we don’t know that wait you know what Day Dron’s biggest problem is his dribble game was really horrible this year like did you guys see the Butterfinger plays where he couldn’t dribble the ball love Dron Sharp by the way rebounding he’s excellent he might be Yeah but All right you got to do more than that you got to be able to put the ball in the Hold on hold on but Gary Dron the thing about it is now we have to have a center that can actually have some type of offensive skill set he don’t have none you You’re not gonna be able to win without You have to have skilled bigs you have to have And he’s not a skilled big i’d be happy with I’d be happy with S man that’d be a good pickup for us okay thomas Sber from Georgia thomas uh let’s see let’s see cuz y you were telling me Jonathan about Rashia Fman and he’s another He’s a power he’s good fing’s good yeah but he’s a project i thought he was I thought he was a Wait what did you say about his should be he’s a He’s a project wait he’s got 710 wingspan with 40% 710 wingspan what is the something like that what are y’all talking about when you’re not talking about height and this and the wingspan bro we’ve seen players with with wingspans about You need bigger players DJ you need bigger DJ you need bigger players brooklyn’s biggest problem is we have a small roster right now we got to get bigger in this draft somewhere yeah but you have to have uh you have to have skill combined we know skill BK these guys have skill set wait what was that hold on who was that play wait what was that player I was telling me about what was his name clyson has a really long wingsp okay let me see if I can find him here jonathan what does do with his wingspan okay here I got him i don’t know what Clax was the guy got cooked by Bismach Bianu man that was it for me come on guys that guy wasn’t even on a team until like the mid end of the season come on you’re killing me over here man his NBA comparison is Roy Hibbert and Vince oh my gosh why do you take the comparisons like they’re a death deal come on i mean they do be getting a lot of them right was Thomas not a good pro for like 10 years roy Hbert not a good pro for like 10 years is Roy Hibbit is Roy Hibbit playable in today’s today’s NBA oh my and Vin Baker come on man allar no nobody’s good unless you’re Hakee Elijah you’re no good like Vinar Shor lacks elite vertical athleticism he’s not an explosive leaper which can limit his ability to finish above the rim in traffic or or contest at the highest point against more athletic bigs his lack of run jump athleticism limits his effectiveness in transition where he’s below average leading to blocks and miss shots around the rim come on man like they have these he can rebound and he has a mid-range shot to his game he actually has little intangibles you can talk about any of his strengths what is up with you he wants Yeah darby said what else the spears doing this about him he wants to argue i I I know but Gary he’s lying to the public you got to give the strength too he’s not a terrific athlete he’s not a great athlete so he’s just he’s only looking at the negative read his pros what what’s he good at read his pros well uh so in basketball you think they just go they look at your report hold on hold on they going so All right all right he shoots 16% for the three-point line are you read his pros bro he’s not a three-point shooter bk read the pros bro oh Lord but they’re gonna take the pros away if I If I’m good at driving somebody and left DJ do you hear report and say he’s not a good free throw shooter and he can only go he’s no good no I said if I play when I play basketball right and I’m good at going to my right hand and I can’t go to my left hand what is defenses going to do to me they’re going to force me to my left hand make him go right right just make LeBron go right you can shut him down it’s that easy right right right bk just make LeBron go right go right what are you talking about it’s not that easy that’s what the scanner report says oh yeah so why how come Wait wait wait wait what’s the point that you’re actually trying to make it’s not easy on great It’s not easy on great players it’s not easy to just shut down people’s strengths at this level like you make it sound like you’re playing little I mean they did it to Julius for PK why don’t you just make LeBron James go right and then you can shut him down just take away his left and make him go right it’s that easy right why lebron can actually post hold on lebron can actually post you up Gary he can overpower you he can I mean he can go to either or now though Gary not really he his strength’s going to his left like you could look at the stats when he when he dribbles to his right his his his He’s used like 30% on on jump shots just make him go right right it’s that easy just What about What about Randall i mean do you think it’s it’s easy for uh Randall because I feel like I mean that’s what they did in the playoffs bro they targeted him but you think it’s easy like these players like you think I’m saying their strength just to disarm them it’s not good it’s not easy against like great players like like uh Steph uh KD LeBron but it’s I think it’s easier for like the lower end players like Julius Randle players averaged 20 points a game for years in the NBA it’s not that easy no no we not that but when when when it gets come playoff time I mean he does get exposed bro he does he got exposed in the finals remember he had two he had two mismatches the first two series he had not a Julius Randle fan but you guys talk about like Julius Randle is Anthony Bennett it’s like Julius Randle’s like three time all-star whatever he is like he’s had a good career no nobody’s talking about Nobody’s talking about Julius Randle you brought him up we’re talking about Tom he’s in the same conversation dj brought him up but I respect I brought him up DJ i said Ram BK oh my gosh bk chill BK it’s all good BK it’s all good bk are you we getting the same conversation here i was just I was just asking a question if Gary felt the same way about First of all let’s get back to what BK is trying to dodge the question what are the guys pros bk read the pros no they’re just going to shut all of them down they’re only going to expose his weaknesses i mean they don’t work on Gary remember they don’t work on their basketball game it’s just the same thing like in power you can just make LeBron go left and just make But if you’re a good defender jump shot you’ll be fine it’s easy it’s easy to shut down Braun no it’s not easy how come how come what happened with John al Iverson can only play with one hand shut him down that’s easy it’s not It’s not It’s not as easy as you make it bro just shut down how come I can only get to the finals one time then yeah he’s didn’t have a team bro anymore no I don’t DJ can you please educate PK dj is easy shutting down Iverson’s easy hold up i know i know i’m young but bro I didn’t have no team bro no I mean he went he went up against like Shaquille O’Neal that That’s really more or less the problem he had a team that started a 35year-old Dembe Matumbbo Aaron McKe Eric Snow and Tyrone went to the finals it was the greatest thing you’d ever seen i won the finals and that tells you how bad the league was back then because it tells you how bad how badly you put that if you put that same team in today’s NBA bj come on bro that that’s just that’s just how bad like how bad how poorly they they built around Iverson bro right no if that team can actually go around to the final it’s not easy to build around Iverson he’s not bro because Iverson carried them there bro pass it’s not easy it’s not easy to build around Iris bro all they did was play defense and nothing else nothing else bro i Because look back in the day you used to score 80 points a game iverson’s got 37 of those so let go for 40 and then try to get a bunch of putbacks like that’s that’s the offense all right so Thomas comparison listen I like I like Vin Baker man i was a Vin B a Vin Baker fan back in the day man no you was a Roy Hibbert fan roy so 14.5 points 8.5 rebounds two and a half assists as a freshman in Georgetown uh shot 57% from the field showing excellent time so we just got to see if this stuff like from a offens offensive perspective can transfer into the actual league over here man why don’t they compare him to Brook Lopez like I think that’s a that’s a decent cop why did they say that well averaging like 20 something points a game though man yeah it’s prime i I think S could be a double combo big he could play the four and the five situationally I think what about the Brook Lopez now you think he plays like him now no they have him as he played like Brook Lopez in 2009 when the Nets drafted Brook Lopez no I don’t think so if Sbury could start hitting threes then maybe we could bring up the Lopez didn’t shoot threes early in his career right right right he didn’t but I’m just saying not mid-range shots like like suits mid-range shot well if he ever does start hitting threes then he could bring up the Lopez thing is what I’m saying no I’m saying Lopez so we’ll see i mean you know like I said you never know with these guys man um and they’ll work on their games and and you know but right now it’s not that bad i mean there’s going to be a few that won’t work on them games if if we can move the draft to get a sober and you get fears I think it’s a good start to your draft night like you got to address these areas of need for the team we have a lot of them i think Zion I think Zion about to be the next one to get off off the pen and move who wants Zion man his his reputation is just so damaged right now man i would I think Philly gonna trade Paul George for what nobody wants that guy either man oh my gosh that would be so bad i give you my [ __ ] for your [ __ ] hey I ain’t gonna lie paul George will pretty I think he’ll perform better than what Bradley Bill did in Phoenix wait Gary watch Paul George last year it was bad man it was bad no I did hey Gary I’m the one that said Philly wasn’t going to make playoffs gary what are your thoughts on the Desmond Bane Hall do you feel like Memphis man like Bandits or did the Magic make a key move to capitalize on Boston potentially breaking up their core where do you stand on that i like that roster bro the Mads are overpay we’ll see like they they they gave up too much for Desmond Bane but if that’s the piece they feel they need they better make it no they definitely needed it Gary they definitely Gary Gary they gave up the Suns 202 Gary you know how bad of a shooting team they were bro they they didn’t have no shooters bro listen Magic definitely took a big swing gary they gave up the Suns 2026 first to get Desmond Bane that’s basically a lottery pick Memphis could have if they break things up this year yeah I I don’t agree with the with the uh picks but what are the Grizzlies going to do now i mean they they won long term they got to trade they’re gonna either trade Jackson or J or J they’re gonna trade one of them i hear they’re leaning towards keeping JJ man i think Mor needs to go to the East bro mor yeah he I don’t think he can win anything what do we got what can we trade him no we got We don’t got nothing here we don’t got nothing it’s the thing is Cam Thomas and Cam Johnson oh I’m hanging up the phone i got If we get If we get John If we get John that means Clax is staying man we willing to keep Clax to get John i don’t know oh the Jourage i called the year and then we’ll trade we’ll keep him for a year to make I kind of like him with J okay that works that works if you get the star and then trade Clax for something that works too I guess but I don’t know i don’t think Marks will go that route i don’t think Hey Jaw in either Boston or Miami i like that jaw in Boston that would that would be crazy he needs he needs like if he goes to like he needs a coach like Eric Sper somebody’s not going to take his [ __ ] so I’m looking at the Thomas Subra uh uh highlights yeah he’s he’s um really just needs a disciplined team like somewhere someone that’s not going to like allow him to do whatever he wants well Jaw wants a team where he can run the offense that’s why he might not like Memphis they changed up his whole offensive uh style he doesn’t even run half the offense anymore that he used to well now it’s going to lot be a lot of pressure on Josh he’s going have to do a lot but I would say Yeah so Gary he got to lose some weight though i think he’s like 260 something pounds i think he needs to get to like 250 that’s not bad i think he can shave down a little bit but that’s that’s you know what forget the eighth pick and forget all these draft people let’s go get Zion and Jaw no Zion maybe Jaw but I’m I’m not on it’ll definitely make the team more interesting to talk about man cuz Flyers bro well here’s the thing will Jordy let J run the offense that he wants to run hey chat we get J and Zion hey we we win the championship no I don’t know about that man especially the way like if you look at Indiana the way they actually played the way they play i don’t know what you guys got tomorrow in OKC okc or Indiana i got I got Indiana i got Indiana indiana i want to say Indiana but I think OKC man if they play with confidence they might be able to win tomorrow but I I want Indiana i don’t want to see a flopper win a championship bro they should have won that last game the Pacers were playing such a hard gritty game he just dropped it at the end man they put up all the uh free throws that Shay’s been making all the foul bang he’s been doing bro that is Did you see what he did at that last bucket shot he actually punched one of the Pacers players to take a setback shot i’m like that’s an offensive foul i do that all the I play like that all the time i You’re going to punch me in the gut and take a jump shot you do it all the time when I Listen when I play basketball I do it all the time so you telling me you do a push off step back travel no I don’t push I don’t travel but I I’ll do a push off to get some separation he took like Especially when I play my son he gets mad but I’m like “Hey bro.” And his pivot foot always moves bro you know how much traveling he’d be doing yeah but they don’t call that no more that’s done they don’t call traveling no more all right well what about the foul bait bro the the the the flopping he be doing nobody touches him i’m not I’m not defending i’m just saying the moving your feet thing they don’t call it no more like he be falling on the ground like a hoe the biggest X factor for OKC’s been Carus man every time he plays he just gives them that defensive energy they need to get back into the game like OKCH bro i can respect him and say that you watch you actually like basketball there’s no way you actually respect basketball and you like Shay there’s no way we talking about foul baiting right i can’t stand that [ __ ] man yeah yeah bro like like okay James Horn like okay cool but bro no nobody is near Shay when he’s falling bro it’s like what is this bro like why are you falling on the ground when nobody is near you picked up some lessons from I’m surprised they call that like usually with himself bro he really when it comes to the finals they kind of like swallow the whistles that you don’t usually don’t get those type of goals that’s crazy BK that’s not going down back then Oh man I can’t I can’t I can’t This league is soft bro that’s why I’m not really watching the finals much nah when they created all these fouls I’m only watching for you said they try to they try to build up Shay you think they’re trying to like prop him up and Yeah bro they they trying to push a narrative like “Oh he’s the best OKC player since OTC to win don’t don’t don’t get that twisted.” Yeah they don’t want the Pacers winning the series yeah all these Who referee the game the other day scott Foster of course that guy is a very controversial as a ref how does he throw off his job but some listen sometimes you’re right though like you got to you got to do it in a way a lot of his push offs can be deemed like offensive fouls man like you can’t push off like that hard man you could push off a little something something to get the separation but like not that hard man you know he he he does some crazy unless he unless he’s like going for the solo plexes but n the foul baiting yeah I I want Indiana to really win the series though hallebert has to be on his game every time Halleurn takes a few steps back man the Paser just do not finish the game he’s got to be there from start to finish this next game yeah he has to mix his game up like he sometimes he can get too passive you know he has to mix up his game and like score then like when the when the defense is keen into you scoring then look to pass but like I like like for for me I would come up looking to score like right away you know because a lot of times he’s passive coming out like starting the game i’m literally begging Tyrese bro please don’t let this flopper win bro i will not even have Thor to keep playing i’m so watching basketball game let’s see where they have Danny Wolf at hold on i can’t bro i can’t watch the NBA if he actually wins another if he wins a championship that’s going to be crazy oh all right so they got Danny Wolf as Mo Mort’s uh one of the Wagner brothers over there man and Henry Ellison that’s not a bad comparison mo Wagner is a good backup man so I’m I’ll be cool with that so let me ask Would y’all Hold on i think the Nets got like a number um 18th pick or something like that i would try to go i know we got 19 pick i know i would take I would take Danny Wolf i would snatch up Danny i wouldn’t wait to 27 19 no BK he’s not going to wait like 26 27 is where we could get Danny Wolf and matter of fact though be he might have a point though John cuz somebody might sn take up DN uh I think you know who’s going to get snatched potentially around there maxine Renard i hear he’s already got a promise from somebody he might go around that uh 19 to 20 bracket renard he’s definitely moved up um yeah I did a show on him about four or five months ago he did really good in the combine he killed it to the point where they said after day three you don’t have to do nothing else kid we What was he getting you like that’s impressive what team that was i’m not sure but I hear it could be maybe the Hawks they have a pick around 20ome right or is it Utah i don’t know one of those teams i mean he is seven foot uh so athleticism is seven and let’s look at Danny Wolf let’s see let’s see i’d be fine with either of these two bigs if we have to get a center i think either one of them could fit what we’re trying to do bro we really do need a center bro we do we got to get rid of Clarkson and if you want to keep them on fight you want to let him go i’m done with the experiment bro it’s been a failure the thing is who’s going to want him because if it’s not the Lakers what do we do for all you Claxton fans bro don’t talk don’t ever talk basketball bro cuz like you you can’t even like they can’t even debate you bro like it’s like what has Claxton shown you to actually believe that he deserves to be on this roster bro all right so one of the problems I see with Danny is here so in terms of his weaknesses they said he’s really really like ball centric he needs the ball in his hands to actually be really really at his best but now again that has to be able to translate to like the NBA and his turnover rate his turnovers is already pretty high in college as it is like it’s almost 3.2 a game so h I don’t know man i want to uh I like Danny Wolf though i I don’t know i’d be Listen I’d be fine with Danny Wolf with these big white guys we get a Wolf and Maxi Rainard we’re done like these are these are backup centers like that these aren’t like come on no that and that’s that’s what I’m saying though Gary cuz like I said if he’s a backup and he needs the ball in his hands that’s not good man that’s not good at all i mean he can’t play off the basketball Maxine yeah see I see this the first time looking at this that big white dude that went to Yukon that is on the Blazers he played really well second half of the year big dude like 72 300 lb cling Kong cling Kong Cling we need we need a white boy like that you know what like like he could listen hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on danny Wolf could be like a Jokicage type player right i mean he’s slow hold on he’s slow unthletic right and it says over here that Danny Wolf is a really good playmaker and he could be a jokerish type player though man you never know he’s a project Drew Timmy he could be a Drew Timmy type player or better than Drew Timmy i don’t know about I don’t know I don’t know how good like how good do you think Danny Wolf is from the highlights the highlights I’ve seen of him he had a he has a good B he has a high basketball IQ like he’s dribbling the ball his head is up he’s surveying the floor he’s make you know he’s Yeah bro in this draft I’m going be honest bro in this draft we need to come out with at least two point guards and two centers bro at least i don’t think we’ll come out with either two maybe one point guard in one sense i don’t even have Danny Wolf or Cling Kong king Kong what are they that’s what you need 72 280 strong as hell like that’s the kind but you got to listen listen you got to be have skill too passing shooting you forget about all that gary have you watch Stephen Adams have skill who what happened stephen Adams does he have skills or is he just a big strong dude well how what happened in the playoffs this year how did that work out good i’m just saying what happens what happens if Steven Adams can actually shoot the three ball he can’t he has defensive who would you rather have Steven no I’m just saying you’re looking at it all right i’m thinking playoffs you’re thinking regular season right so I’m looking at is not going to be on the court in the reg he’s too slow he’s going to get cooked so is Jokic he’s slow too okay if you can do what if you can do what Joker can do then you’ll be on the court danny Wolf can’t be on the court playoff game he any meaningful minutes no he zero dk can you look up Hansen Yang i want to see what his metrics are oh no bro i mean Stephen Adams I mean he played really well in the playoffs bro Adams is a good defensive if if Stephen Adams can give you more offense the Rockets win that series man what he’s never been the type to even give you a lot of No no that offensive he’s a good defense say he wants a big strong guy i’m like all right that’s fine but like how did that work out in the playoffs you need some sort of skill you need shooting passing some some play making who is the player Jonathan uh Hansen Yang he’s the Chinese center chinese yeah let’s see what his metrics are where they got him going people love him some people hate him i I I can’t tell you nothing about him does he have a Zack Edi game as a big where he’s like he’s slowooted and See they got him going to the Nets at 36 so do I 255 pounds uh all right uh the measurements doesn’t seem that bad though 252 you just got to see how he would look on the floor like against like if he gets switched on to these dynamic Donovan Mitchells and Cades and and Jamal Murray we haven’t had a good guard those guys on the perimeter long bro well no they wouldn’t man hopefully well you don’t got to lock them down if you can just force them into like a if you could hold them to at least two dribbles you know um you you know you’re not going to never shut these guys down but if you could force them into like a a second option you know that wouldn’t be so bad though you know let me see jp Liberty say uh Danny Wolf and Danny Wolf like his name is Carl Anthony Towns bring him out bring him out i’m going to go right around you nah if you don’t shoot threes like Towns that’s not going to work i mean hey Chad hey to the to the comments bro i guess the last time we had a good center was Jared Allen i guess we need an actual big like Claxton’s an undersized power forward dayron’s a backup you need a starting center that can compete against the other bigs that’s our one of our biggest problems right now and hopefully Mark’s going to pull a Houdini trick on draft night nothing on this roster bro like nobody has skills bro like get me one of these three give me a Wolf or Ray Nard or a Hansen Yang we’ll go from there man at this point like we got to get one of these bigs it’s got it’s got to be one of the goals when he’s I’m looking at I’m looking at his highlights in the combine he’s not bad he’s not bad i don’t want to I can’t show it on screen cuz they’ll like just yellow mark is he playing Is he getting on the court in the playoffs uh who the Chinese guy no I’m I saw you talking about Wolfe still no no no i’m looking at I’m looking at the uh uh uh Hassan Yang not bad though he has a good basketball IQ oh man you got to finish that dude they shouldn’t be able to block your shot man if Mark drafts a big skill big though huh they saying he’s a skill big no he is i’m I’m I’m looking at him right now i’m watching him right now and he’s in the combine they saying Danny Wolf is is because of his defense he’s more of a power forward okay yeah maybe he could be a combo big if they still need to play power they they have they have they have more skilled power forwards in the in the uh in the NBA than they do have more skilled centers though so that’s why he’s better off playing center oh all right um I would take if he was able to like Hold on he’s He’s able to play on the perimeter and block this dude’s three-point shot okay all right i mean almost every sevenfooter should be doing that bro yeah a big that can guard the three-point line okay that chang again he has to be able to do it against the Donovan Mitchells the Job Morance they expect they don’t care how explosive and dynamic these guys are you they they they still expect you to play defense though you know I just want I just want this draft to come bro i don’t know how I be doing it man i was just ready to get He had like 11 points six assists six rebounds one block 18 minutes oh I owe to Thomas bro i want a lot of players going i want this half the team going three quarters of this team shouldn’t be on the team next year like seriously I only want to keep Cam Thomas to be honest with you i I even saw a micro trade one of my friends suggested where we trade Tyrese Martin to the Magic for Jet Howard to reunite with his dad i was like “Okay man hopefully we can do something we can pull off like some finesse or something like that where we could trade these like these uh secondyear players for something he looks better he looks He looks better than Zack Edy though man some second round picks or something d something yeah second round picks bro cuz these Listen Listen Markive Young but they is not good bro listen DJ Mark’s entire remaining legacy is on the line this draft night he has to be as active as possible he cannot be passive waiting for pickers dropping his lap you got to be aggressive on draft [Applause] they’re just horrible i don’t I don’t understand how NBA DraftNet doesn’t have like a a profile on him just yet i don’t understand i don’t get this he’s an international player that’s why he uh he’s playing in the damn in the in the um in the combine over here man patience bro patience hurry up the championship bro that’s Come on bro they got to win some more if they don’t win some more I think it’s going to be tough for them to do it okay wow h what is the uh series T was 22 right yeah 22 see I would I would probably take him with this pick right here hold on they have a seven no hold on they have a 19 pick i would probably take Yang with this uh I like him i actually I’m going to do a separate video on him okay just from the few highlights you’ve seen yo no you got to watch them saw highlights i’ve seen them i’ve seen him does he look better than Zach Edi uh in my opinion yes and Zack Zack Edy got drafted and with the ninth pick so pick yeah all right let me see and he’s doing this against uh I don’t want to see him in China i want to see him against like American players man so that’s the one thing he BK BK look up look up Drake Powell right there he’s a guy could also be on our radar defensive specialist Drake what other point guards could we besides fierce they do scrap um at eighth like what let me see point guards here um no other options DJ they options be trading The other option would be trading him for Jagor or drafting Nolan Trayor in the later part of the draft those are two guys fears and there’s also Ben Sarafh but I’ve heard not a lot of good things about him with his development so it’s really those three guys it’s just Trey Johnson just doesn’t make any sense for this so wait hold on from from from Yang though what what do you like better from Yang DJ that that that uh stands out that makes him better than Zack Edy to me I think it’s his offense yeah and his defense yeah his defense too well uh Z Ed is just he’s just slow that’s all it is i mean he he’s got quicker from like uh from the day he got drafted until now but he’s just slow and like a lot of the games I was watching from Zach Edi man like he he couldn’t even convert like right around the rim man he looked really bad in the playoffs he looked like a bowling ball out there against OKC man like no movement they were just charging him and stealing the ball from him man it was so bad he’s got to get a lot better at just like Who did they play in the playoffs again wait what who Who the uh Grizzlies playing in the playoffs oh OKC they crushed him yeah they got swept in this and bro has When was the last time J got in the first round i don’t know i think he’s going I think he’s requesting a trade they just changed his whole offensive system so would you would you get him at Would you get him at 19 though um would you take a chance because if I’m not not at 19 not at 19 they can’t risk it it’s too risky i take him at 27 19 no I’m not it’s too risky can’t take No listen hudson Yang is a late first or a second round pick the 19th pick is Joan Pinga here let me see um would be sent to the G-League to develop yeah I’m starting him over class we could trade Clax and Storm all right so right now all right now this this dude over here he’s they have him going to the Nets at at uh 19 so his athleticism is a nine size nine but then you look at the weaknesses over here extremely raw offensively right um so it seems like he just mainly like a defensive specialist for now it says need to improve his uh free throw shooting 53% that’s not good that means you can’t even play him in like in a in a playoff series and shooting but then you look at like half court set yeah exactly in a half court set yeah upper bodies and core strength to handle the physicality at the next level so yeah he’s 235 lbs so the Yang over here is already at 2552 pounds and um and shows like a higher like basketball IQ man you know I mean it’s it’s a limited sample size but it’s tough though man i mean so you think Yang is better than this this night this this dude over here um I haven’t seen them like I see got to see more footage but the good news a lot of these big The good thing is the Nets have at least five or six different big options they can get in this draft which is good just get one to watch uh game yeah this is actually a deep draft with bigs and the Nets need a big like like if Markx doesn’t draft a big in this draft they already got up already man don’t matter trade him so he attach a pick to office contract get him how do you say his name they saying Bard is uh what um who they got Maxine Renard um compared to let me see trying to say he’s another Claxton from VK in the comments who uh Bard i heard somebody say Noel could be a Claxton type prototype aa Noel i said Noel I like Yeah jp saying that his his skill set is actually better than JP is Claxton with a jump shot like I like Noel no yeah I said that i said Yang is better than is E oh Binga binga yeah binga is like another Claxon they saying yeah yeah yeah the the Claxton listen my only thing with Claxton is his weight right he’s 215 pounds man if he was like your only thing with no BK be one time you got to be honest with us his offense not good defense could be much better listen if he was stronger like he can like I I showed in the last live stream no I think it was the regular show I did but like he can like bump guys and get like guys off balance a little bit so he can get a clean shot off right now he can’t move anybody like like no he can’t he didn’t offense for six years how if he was strong if he has to know how to do a jump shot or three-point shot what’s the point well up a little bit he has to know how to score around the rim around the rim he can’t move anybody so like guys can just stay right with him and contest the shot so if he finish around the rim huh he can’t even finish around the rim well all he does is a hook shot most of the time dj all he does hook shot yeah come on you know what it is his wind up is slow right you see sometimes like you see Chad Hong trying to go against like uh uh um what’s his name miles Turner and and like Yeah Chad Hog can actually shoot threes though BK i’m saying around the rim like trying to drive to the rim around like Miles Turner he can’t move Turner to get like a clean shot off that’s why he goes out to the perimeter he doesn’t really play inside claxon’s problem is his wind up is super slow like he has to quicken the wind up you can’t compare the two because Claxton has to play inside let me hold on let me show you guys talking about hold on hold on hold on let me let me look up clax has no perimeter game at all bro he doesn’t man like you just got to trade his contract zero like there’s nothing there if we have to attach second round picks to Trey Clax at this draft I’m fine with that at this point we got to get a new big he has no he has no ball handling skills his free throws is it might be one of the worst in the league bro he’s better than Mitchell Robinson i give him that oh my god i actually give a compliment ben Simmons might be a better free throw shooter than Mitchell to Mitchell Robinson to Mitchell Robinson’s uh defense though i mean he doesn’t really play oh man when they were clapping hands for this guy to make free throws injured Mitchell Robinson’s always hurt bk you remember Josh Boon on the Nets the lights I remember him yeah he was the worst free throw shooter ever he was worse than Mitchell Robinson he was horrible he got He was out of the league cuz he was like an undersized center and he couldn’t shoot free throws he’s always going to the line who does class remind y’all of All right let me show you guys what I’m talking about this is Brian Scallabbrini they saying they saying just a live guy man that’s what That’s really what he is that’s what he is offensively he’s a lob guy that’s horrible bro all right let me show you guys what I’m talking about with Let me show you all you Claxton fans bro stop living off that one year that you played good that was with three superstars if nobody’s defending you of course you’re going to score at the rim just dunking the ball most of the time nobody’s stopping you all right let me show you guys what I’m talking about here go fans all right let me show you guys this is Brian Scalabbrini taking like See how he’s able You see how you see Scallabrini how he’s able to bump this guy off and he can actually get the space to get a a clean shot off and Claxton can’t do that that’s really more or less the problem if he was stronger he can like you know bump guys off move them off like a foot and he can get a clean shot off if he can’t do that he can’t do it if I was 7 foot two and could jump out of the building I’d be in the NBA right but I’m not right like so you got to live with Yeah no BK you’re definitely pointing out a problem but it’s his mechanics his mechanics have been so bad since he came no I’m just talking about like just a layup though like Brian Scalabbrini is not dunking on anyone over here right he’s moving this guy he’s getting them off balance right this is about a foot of separation right here he’s able to get a clean shot off if somebody if somebody was bigger and stronger than right here he won’t be able to really do this he was struggling play off that’s what the crazy thing is in Claxton’s rookie year he was shooting like he was in George he was making mid-range shots he was shooting threes then he tore his labroom and his whole offense died like it really changed look at that right here hold on look at this right here hold on he just said old skill center but JP old skill centers they they would have killed Clyson bro you see the separation we got right here cuz they had way more skills than Clesson clash has no skill bro i feel like class DJ dj look at this right here it’s not about skill right look at this right here bro when you’re watching him he Wait what do you mean it’s not about skill bk hold that takes Hold up what you’re watching that takes skill he does He can’t do none of that what he’s overpowered him that’s not skill he overpowered him but But you’re dribbling into that bro your ball head yeah no you’re dribbling the ball you could Listen you could protect the back floor bro what I’m saying is that he can’t get that bump he can’t get that set on let me get this straight let me get this straight so if if he was able to if he if he wants to do that he’ll have to have a point guard to set him up to do that right no he has to get stronger that’s That’s all I’m saying with class but no he has to he has to do some type of ball handling skills to get to that move well no he was a ball handler in college though i mean ball handling Yeah I’m just saying what am I listening to right now no I No I I always if you listen to my past streams I always got on claxing in terms of Hold on you’re You’re the main one that said “Oh oh that’s just college that’s college bro.” Yeah he I’m not saying he needs KD type handle i’m just saying just basic handk’s wind up shots that takes like three to four seconds just to get off a three shot he’s going to start no I’m talking about just finish basic finishing around the basket though that’s all I’m saying and we saw the And we saw the mid-range attempts this year they were really bad this is how this is why guys are so efficient around Clarkson because explain to us away and they can get a clean shot off if you can explain to us how he’s going to do this what’s going to change for Clax no no i’m I’m saying if Yeah people think I’m hating on Clax and I’m not hating on him i’m just saying like in terms of his strength if he was stronger right i mean he would be uh uh uh you know better for the Brooklyn you know for the Nets right there he able to finish better like this is what guys do to Claxton right here i mean they just bump him off right they’re bigger and stronger than him and they can just get clean dunks off a clean shot okay why does he have a baby hook shot why does they have a little push shot gary Gary Gary Gary you still need this separation to do that oh my god BK come on he’s right he’s right he’s right he’s right John he’s He’s right but like Marcus was Marcus Cami strong no pami was built just like Nick Claxton but we’ve seen strong players without that skill set though Gary listen BK we agree i’m saying like Pam like it doesn’t matter about your about the muscle bro have a post game though like you can’t be built like him and have a post game right right and here’s the thing let me get this straight John if he puts on if CL puts on muscle he’s going to all of a sudden develop a skill set no he has to actually have the skill he has the mechanics to do around the rim like just getting a high percentage look at the rim like right now he has no layup package bro i know because he can’t get this type of separation against the biggest guys bro that’s all it is he just doesn’t have that skill set i go with you i I’m just making a point for all the people not you guys for the panel i’m saying for all the guys that think that I’m just hating on Claxton i I’m just not He has a small guard on him he’ll go to a hook shot or just a just a standing dunk yeah but a lot of the guards are strong it depends on what guard you’re talking about though man um you know Donovan Mitchell strong and you can’t just reach over him and do a layup his defense took a nose dive this year i mean he got cooked by everybody this year old centers young centers centers when we were on teams like he really lost a lot of skill that’s what I’m saying though those those bigs that you talking about play class and they’re better than him bro they have they have more skills than him bro i don’t know how much as much skill as uh Stephen Adams horrible yeah wait what’ you say Gary i said everyone’s got more skills than Claxton he’s horrible i just don’t agree with BK when he says that when you put up a body or something on somebody that’s just automatically gives you a skill set i think he’s trying to skill set i just said it’ll give him a much more high percentage it’ll give him a slight advantage but I mean it’s not Yeah that’s it i mean Jericho this this is what Jericho Sims was doing to the same [ __ ] right here this is what Jericho Sims was actually doing to Claxton right that’s crazy because Sims doesn’t even have it all finish the hard but he can finish around the rim claxton can’t unless he doesn’t get a lob assist yeah a lob assist yeah n listen we was like 235 24 efficiency around the rim he doesn’t finish well at the rim no cuz I No that’s what I’m saying because he can’t move guys and then guys is just able to really contest the shot but if he was stronger if he was stronger he can do this this doesn’t take a lot of skill to do man he can he could just be in a basic bump right here and just be able to finish if he was strong but BK you talk about the physicality of your body getting stronger that requires muscle requires a diet requires so many different things to get that type of muscle i’m saying to BK like you have to have like y’all saying Stephen Adam right the thing about Stephen Adam he he uses his body but he can finish around the rim though he has a he can do a layup he can he can just post you up and then finish around the rim clen Adams is 260 then that’s the thing yo it is DJ finish around the rim though bro you know what it is DJ instead of hitting the weight room Claxton hits the Zumba classes like he just You see his workout videos bro y’all look up Stephen Adams percentage at the at the rim bro his percentage is good he can finish around the room claxton is percentage is horrible uh Clarkson just No I’m just giving you the reason why that is though you know because for for it’s not for you DJ but from some all the people that listen to the show he be like “Yo man you just hating on Clarkson.” Well here’s the reason why cuz it’s like that’s why I’m not even hating i’m just being realistic like being real you know you know what’s crazy you know what’s crazy Gary i counted the plus or minus performances i think he had over 48 or out of 60 bad performances or was like close to 50 out of six like I think he had only eight good performances the whole year i used to do his plus minus every game and every day he was a minus and and Dear was a plus it was every game he had a worse plus and minus than Reese Speakman in one game how is that possible now he’s saying first of all Stephen Adams does has Hold up does Stephen Adam have a post game to y’all i mean the playoffs hold up let me let me correct myself not a Yishage or or Kevin Durant post game no I get you i get you yeah I mean the playoffs well I only want him posting up a smaller guy i don’t want him posting up like a guy that’s equival equivalent to the same weight as him because that’s just not good offense i’m just take just to really kind of get like a good shot off but like if it’s a smaller guy like he gets like a guard or like a point guard or a two guard switched on to him he can actually just get he can he can get to his spot faster in two two two three dribbles rather than like him going against like Jokic who could put more like resistance up on him and you got to use five six separate dribble there’s different there’s just different levels of post game bro there’s like a center type post game then there’s like the wing type post game bro yeah it just depends though man i mean like depends yeah it it like and it just doesn’t make sense for me like like you don’t want to see Adams trying to like Jo man that’s just not good offense right there like but if Steven Adams has a smaller guard switched on to him then yeah post him up all day cuz he’ll get to the rim in two dribbles but like if he’s like if Stephen Adams is trying to like uh post up Joel Embiid well that’s gonna take eight nine dribbles just to really get a a decent and that’s a low percentage shot off right and then the help can actually come in and they can dig and you know so it all depends though man i just don’t I mean I don’t know why y’all want to just keep waiting around for a guy that’s not getting any better bro i mean he hasn’t gotten any better at all like offensively he hasn’t gotten better bro yeah man i I think most of the bass is ready for it it’s just Kim Mark actually i’m just done with Claron like it’s nothing wrong with it i mean cool yeah go play somewhere else and go play good i mean but yeah your time here in Brooklyn is done oh yeah he had a back injury man come on guys that’s like yo stop stop i can’t believe he actually used that as an excuse dude you played almost 60 games you have a bad back dude stop you were complaining half series remember when he punched the referee’s hand or he closed the Dyson Daniels come on Claxton stop it you were going through a Dennis Rodman phase half the season grow up dude stop this [ __ ] he’s like “Yo I played 60 games i’m back man.” Like stop come on you Fernandez didn’t put them to a Wait that’s my problem with Jordy Fernandez when did he ever think that Claxton could do a role of Sabonis i don’t understand that bro that’s crazy that’s crazy he had one game this year guys he had one game this year with 10 he said what was the quote John claxton can be as a bonus he could we could turn it he had one DJ he had one game this year against the Warriors we had 10 assists one game out of 70 games come on come on like what are we doing here i couldn’t believe he actually thought that he could turn class into the bones bro that’s crazy oh man first of all you actually have to be a sad DJ have to be a sensor to do the role like so Bonus came into the league with like like some raw talent some skill set like really didn’t listen if I had one year bro you had one good year and that was it bro time to go if if I had to attach second round draft picks to Claxton to train him to the Suns to take back Royce O’Neal’s contract I’ll do a Royce O’Neal reunion at that point like I don’t know about that one well it’s they try to get they last last trade deadline they tried to get like two two first round picks for for Clax and um nobody was budging for him man wait here’s a question does Memphis now want to trade for Clax so they have all this capital to work with could Clark uh Ed be a combination they want to use maybe no no hell no man hell no bk BK could probably pull it up bro the actual quote and video was he wanted to turn him into Sabonis bro we all remember when he said I remember I still can’t believe that man like he’s not a If he Listen listen if he was bigger and stronger it’s possible but he’s just not like I said I just showed the video he can’t move guys like to get the clean like guys would be able to block a shot and force him into low percentage layups you know he can’t move guys it’s like when I play when I play my 10-year-old son right when I play my 10-year-old son in basketball I can just overpower him at will you know i can get any shot off I want now me trying to do that against like a D1 player like that’s like 6’5 66 I ain’t doing that i don’t know if the Lakers I don’t know if the Lakers going to do it though i mean Cl really know who I like but would y’all trade him to the Lakers i would if they’re willing to take him on anywhere anyone who will take him i don’t care you want Nick Claxton you can have him whatever i’ll take I’ll take Gabe Vincent and Dalton at this point you have to give me a pick at that point those two contracts we good i ain’t going to lie i like that i was like I said I was on the locker room show last night and and we were talking about Claxton and and just I I was breaking it down to Reggie i’m like “Yo listen he he has no type of skill set man like he doesn’t have a position like he has no position like he can’t play the five he can’t play the four and he can’t play the three because to to play the small forward you have to be able to shoot pass dribble can’t do that you know not efficiently.” So um not consistently the correct word is not consistent i mean JP might be I mean if you want to win a championship which the Lakers are all about i mean Clash is not a championship level center so yeah and Luca needs a lot of defenders around him the fact that Minnesota scored 65% against him you need a lot of defense like three to four defenders with him at all times hold on hold on hold on oh AP if I actually get in shape against junior high school no junior high school eighth graders yeah I could do it

that you have to develop your game to be a much better player right yeah I know i know i was just using an example of like I was waiting for that like me playing against my son who’s 10 years old i

Yes they can.
One of the things that stick out about the Nets rooster is it's lack of size in key positions. Noah Clowney play PF at 210 lbs. Nic Claxton play center at 215 lbs. Cam Thomas play guard at 6'3". If Khaman Maluach is on the board, when the Nets pick 8th, they should draft him. A 7'2". 250 lbs 18 year old that could potentially solve the Nets center whole for a generation would be too enticing to past on. The time would be right to draft and groom center Malauch if he's there at number 8. With our 19th pick, we should take Rasheer Fleming, 6'9.5" , 232 lbs. power forward out of Saint Joseph's. The Nets should try to trade Claxton on the open market. They should try to trade Cam Thomas to the Bulls for Josh Giddy. I like the thought of starting next season with Maluach, Fleming, and Giddey in the rotation.
All star panel. That's always a recipe for a good show. This one is no exception.
One of the panelist (AP) said the Nets have a good coach "now" and he's "better" than Jacque Vaughn. Jordi Fernandez don't have much of a record as a head coach. He's 26-56 in his first and only year as a head coach. Jacque Vaughn finished his coaching the Nets stint with a winning record and wasn't given time to prove what he could do beyond that. He have league wide respect among his peers and with his background in playing and coaching in the NBA, I'll pick him over Jordi Fernandez any day.
@Rasheed You're way past the date to neutered. Get cracking. LMAO
Bro cam Thomas is 23 and ya bashing him like he reached his prime alrdy 😂 if the Knicks made it to the ECF with a mouse why can’t we and our mouse looks stronger more capable than Brunson
