I Traded Everyone On The Sacramento Kings

I Traded Everyone On The Sacramento Kings

And we back. And I can’t say the same thing about the Sacramento Kings. You know, just a few years ago, they were one of my favorite teams to watch. Everybody loved Lighting the Beam. And now I I dislike so many things about their team. So, I thought it would be a perfect time to trade everybody on the Kings and hope to win a championship. Now, when I say everybody, that’s not completely true because we got a couple people that are safe. Basically, if they acquired them this offseason, so that means Dennis Shruder and his big old contract. That means uh Drew Eubanks. That means Dominique Clifford. The guys that they got this year, they’re they they can be traded, but they don’t have to be traded. Most of the things I’m thinking about right now is trading away Demar Damontes, Zachary, Malik, uh Keegan Murray, even Keon Ellis. I got love for you, but you know what I’m saying? You got to get some things done. Um we’re still in the offseason, so I’m not going to spend any money. We just going to let it ride out. see what player progression does to our our players or I’m going to ruin the whole sim file. I’ll be I’ll be right back. I messed up in a video like this. I’m sure I don’t have to say it, but these trades and all this stuff is not meant to be hyperrealistic. Again, I shouldn’t have to say that cuz if anybody’s trading away a whole team, you already know it’s not realistic. So, I’m going to try my best to do some cool stuff in there, though, even if it’s not realistic. All right, we got 19 players on the roster currently. Let’s go get rid of some people right now. Isaiah Stevens, I’m sorry. It’s got to be you. Um, Mason Jones, I’m sorry. It’s got to be you. Uh, Daycoin Plouden, who makes a second appearance on this channel this week. It has to be you. Terrence Davis, it’s got to be you. Do we need one more person? That might be all the people we need to need to uh Dario, you close. I I Boy. All right, that’s all we need to release because Dario, you was close, my guy. You know what I’m saying? I know it’s 5.4.32 million dollars that we owe you, but there was a world where I got rid of you just in free agency. Okay, I’m going to do this one at a time. De Montis Sabonis is our highest overall player. He’s making $43 million a year. I’m going to find a new home for him. As y’all know, trading centers in this game could be kind of tough. H maybe not. Uh they still got to make up 9 million. Uh they’re not going to give us Sam Hower in this trade. Or maybe they will. Uh maybe they will. We’ll give them back a player. We’ll give them back uh Douggee Mcbuckets. That’s like a real legitimate trade, I think. I mean, not in real life, but you know what I’m saying? like I don’t think they going to be too mad about that. Let’s go see if we got anybody else that would take him back. Again, $40 million is what we’re working with. And it’s not a lot of teams that could just take in $40 million. Also, not a lot of teams that need center play. So, that’s where it gets real diff after a couple different strolls across the association. I’m not seeing anything else that makes sense. So, in that case, Anthony Simons, they say, what did they say? They say they’re a championship contender. Hey, guess what? Jason Tatum’s not gonna play for you this season, it looks like. So, um, you’re not a championship contender, but I could help your center position. Chris Bushchet is a fine pickup in real life. I don’t know if in 2K he going to look good. But, you know, you can tell yourself that once Tatum comes back, it’s going to be him, Jaylen Brown, Derek White, and and then Sabonis. Maybe we give y’all somebody else then cuz again, we do have to trade away everybody. I wonder if I reverse tradefinder would have worked cuz Anthony Simons, I’m I’m I kind of just convinced myself that I really want Anthony Simons on this team for right now. Last year, if his contract, you know, we may not even resign him. They want Demar. See, that trade don’t even make again, it’s not supposed to be realistic, but that trade don’t really make too much sense. What if I did it this way there? H how do we find a way to make things work? All right, the Sabonis to the Celtics thing is kind of dead. What if instead of we getting us getting Sam Hower, we got somebody else. Oh, they just don’t have the contracts, though. We’ll take Buché and Josh Min. Is that a Sabonis trade? It’s the Demar Rosen trade. And you know what? Again, it don’t make sense, though. Again, it’s not supposed to make sense, but I at least want to I don’t want to set the Celtics back a gazillion. Them having Demar D Rose and Jaylen Brown and and um our boy Tatum eventually, that sets them back a lot. So, we move. We move. We’re fine. We’re fine. We’ll find another suitor for our boy Deamont Sabonis. That’s fine. Hey, there’s a Damont Sabonis to the Lakers trade. They’ll give us one first round pick in salary filler basically for Damont Sabonis. Okay, I’m just out here. I’m out here trying to figure some stuff out cuz a lot of these teams don’t need center play. I mean, he don’t really fit what this team need and they’d be one of the most expensive teams like ever if they added $40 billion. So, no duh, not them. Am I tripping or like I feel like I’ve been sitting here for like 40 minutes trying to put together the three-teamer and it’s probably the most disgusting three-teamer you ever seen. Damonte Sabonis, this is probably going to get canned immediately by the way, but I’m going to explain anyway. Damont Sabonis, Devin Carter, Isaac Jones, Dario Shards moving out. We get back to John Salon, Josh Green. I didn’t want Miles Bridges on my team, so I’m sending him to Phoenix for Grayson Allen, Royce O’Neal in a pick. Neither team were interested. Well, I just spent too much time for nothing, huh? What if we threw in a pick there? Neither team was interested. Sometimes it’s adding those second round picks do a lot. You get your second round pick back, Charlotte. Okay. Well, I tried to do some cool three-teamer. Sabonis is really finding his way in to be untradable in a way. Like obviously if we did trade finding, there’s gonna be a ton of teams that’s interested, but like Deont Sabonis and Joel Embiid together. Uh they just got Miles Turner. The Bulls shouldn’t be buying. Darius Garland, you’re going to add Deont Sabonis to Evan Mobley and Jared Allen. Like none of these traits make sense. I mean, maybe the Memphis one does a little bit if you’re trying to say that Zack Ed is not ready and then like they give Jaylen Johnson. Like that’s such a good trade for us. By the way, this is also a really good trade for us. By the way, the Miles Bridges one I just can’t do like Devin Booker sitting here. Oh boy. All right, I’m going to tell myself that Zack Ed is not ready to be the full-time starter. So, they bring in Damont Sabonis. Deal. Wow. Why did that take so long? I have been filming for 26 minutes. At least 22 of those is me just trying to find a trade for Deont’s opponent. All right, let’s find the Zack Lavine trade. And man, Larry, I mean, that that trade was so hard. I don’t know about the Zack Lavine with $46 million. Like, it could it be like a Paul George trade? You know, they get off the Paul George money. We get some assets in return. I just don’t even know what that looks like. We obviously not gonna get VJ or Grimes or Maxi or McCain in that trade. So, is it future picks? Can we get a Clippers pick? Can we get um Can we get two Clippers picks? Oh. Oh. Oh, did I just get finessed? Did I just get finessed? I just got a burning sensation in my chest once they said yes to that trade. I’m so used to them saying no and then countering nope. Paul George, welcome to Sacramento, man. I hate that this is where your career is probably going to end, but the goal is to trade everybody and we’re in the process of doing that. Can you tell that my goal is to not be very good this season? Have you figured that out just yet? Okay, I’m I’m hoping you put it together cuz the two trades we did, we didn’t get back anybody in return. Maybe Paul George can be flippable. Do you think there’s a world we can really replenish Paul George’s value? I don’t know. Demard Rosa, you’re next. $24 million. That should be an easy trade to put together. It’s just a matter of who would need Demard Rose and services. Don Connect is an 80 overall right now. Oh, player progression probably did him decent. That’s what it is. These are not the base stats. These are This is after player progression. I don’t really hate this one. We get back a player and don’t connect and Rui Hachima. We get to free up some money next season if we need to. The Lakers get them another guy. That’s not a terrible one. Can I somehow send him to Milwaukee for some picks? Deal. I just got two first round picks for Zack Lavine and two first round picks for Demard Rosen. I’m killing it right now, ain’t I? So, the Bucks just added another guy for for Giannis to hoop with. I like that for them. So, we still got Keegan Murray, Malik Monk. Malik Monk should be an easy trade, too. Who needs some off the-bench pop for 18 million? Uh-oh. Miami. Can I get two first round picks in Terry Roier? Trade exception. Oh, y’all going to be smart, huh? They want Daario and they want one of those picks. You can have Daario. You could just genuinely have him. I I could not care less about him being on this team. You could You have to give us back tech, though. Nope. That’s too too much money. Give us back Josh Christopher. You got yourself a deal. Don’t ask for no pick in return because I’m hanging up the I’m hanging up the phone to y’all. Hanging up the phone. This could be funny. Jonathan Kaming de Jonathan Kaminga declined to wave his no Trey Claus. Okay, Jonathan. I was about to get you into a better situation where you can average 30. Ain’t that exactly what you want? You just want a hoop, right? You want You want to play for a good team, don’t you? Well, no. If you want to play for a good team, you will stay. You want to play with a place that could just give you the ball to rock out, right? Guess not. I’m protecting first round pick from Orlando. I don’t even know how they Okay. I don’t even know how they got more picks because they trade a four away this off seasonason, but it is done. We liking the team we’re putting together. This team is going to be so bad this year and we going to win the first overall pick. That’s why we doing it, baby. I’m going to trade for Ron Holland. Yeah, we needed like at least one young player to convince our fan base that it’s going to be one of the building blocks, and we got that. Now, the last couple guys we need to trade. Oh my god, this team stinks. Devin Carter, Dario Sharge, and some of these dudes at the bottom, and we’re done. And this team is going to be terrible, terrible, terrible. But you saw you saw the capital, man. And this look at this. Look at this. We got two for this first this year. We got two next year. We got 2D after that. We got 2D after that. We got 2D after that. Two first round picks per year for the next five years. Come on, man. Sam not cooking something up. And we gonna convince somebody to sign to us in free agency. We going to turn Sacramento to a free agent destination. It is inevitable. The Devin Carter trades are actually nuts. Like a lot of these trades are like really really good. Yeah. Let’s just go get Jaylen Dura. Like what the Let’s go get Alprin Shenon for a young player and a guidance on the last year of his deal. But I’m being very very picky. I want a future pick. I don’t know who that’s from just yet, but I want a future pick in this trade. I want that pick. Y’all know that pick. They think they’re a championship team. Well, I’m giving you Deon Carter for Kobe Buffkin. Come on. I’ll give you some seconds or something. You want more players? I give you Dario Sarge, right? He’s a good player, I think. Um, give us back to Oh, that’s not enough money, dude. I really want that pick. That pick is like the most valuable pick in the world, it feels like. All right, dead mission. Dead mission. Dead mission. They think they’re a championship team. I ain’t mad at them for thinking that. I’m just going to teams that could use a backup point guard, basically. You know, maybe we go to give Uncle Mike. Hey, Uncle Mike, you want to come to this place to end your career and they give me a future first round pick trade exception deal. All right. Dario Shards is the last guy cuz I mean again, we don’t have to trade Dennis Ruda. I might trade Dennis Shruda, but we don’t have to. I when I first started this video, I didn’t think I was going to trade everybody away for future future assets, but I’m happy we did so far. It’s been it’s been fun. And Dario, I’m accepting a second round pick for you if I can. Oh, or a first round pick. Thanks, Detroit. All right, the starting lineup going into this season. I’m definitely changing this around. Paul George is going to be a three. Um, ew. Paul George might be a two. Ew. I want Ron Holland to start. That’s basically what I’m doing this for. Ron Holland starts at the three. I’m not loving it. I’m not loving it. But I need Ron Holland to start cuz he’s like again the the futurist of our D. You know the type of stuff you can try to convince your fan base of. So, Shruder, Paul George, Ron Holland, Aldama, Eubanks, Caris, KCP, and then we probably have more trades to do if I’m being honest with you. Um, because some of those dudes are on the last year of their contracts and maybe if they having a good season, we popped them off at the deadline. But, all right, all the trades for the first season is done. Now, it’s about rebuilding this team. All right, so it’s about the deadline. We suck, which is good. We’re 20 and 30. That’s 31. That’s perfect. But I’m looking around the league where I’m like, who on the block? Boom. Pascal Skiako on the block. That’s kind of nuts. Trey Murphy, Sadique Bay on the block, that’s kind of nuts. Or at least the Tre Murphy one. And I keep looking. I keep looking. I keep looking. And though we are one of the worst teams in the league, when you see an opportunity, you got to capitalize. The the the Cavs are falling apart, dog. And they are selling Darius Garland. If Darius Garland is the is a guard in Sacramento, he will get his jersey retired here. You know what I mean? So, we have to figure out how we can snag him up. KCP is having an amazing season. He’s back to being a 40% three-point shooter. That’s great. We got to make up $12 million. We can give them Nick Clifford, who we really like. Shout out to my boy Nick Clifford. Uh but in this trade, well, we might not be able to trade him in that because he might not be valuable enough. Send back Caris Levert. What’s the counter? They don’t have one. Um I’m going to give them our own first round pick for next season. I’m going to protect. I’m going to put a I’m going to put some protectors on because I’m a little afraid. Top five protected. No, we give them the Timberwolves pick for 2028. Deal. All right. Um the Wolves are solid. I think they’re going to be a playoff team in two years. So, I’m going to, you know, take that that gamble. And Mike Connley, sorry, you’re not no longer starting. Instead, it is DG to Peachy. And he’s got to chill for a little bit. He signed an extension, though, so he he’s got to just chill. his stats don’t look amazing, but now he’s coming here and I bet you they going to turn up. Um, I do want to put I just realized that I’m kind of sad about us trading away, my boy Nick Clifford, but it had to be done. I’m going to put big fella in a rotation because we don’t have any center minutes. Um, cuz right now we’re starting John Heisik at the five. I ain’t mad at it. We have one of the worst teams in the league and the goal was to be bad. The guy as the first overall pick in this year’s draft looks pretty good. I know I just made a trade that in theory is going to have us win more games in the second half of the season. I’m not tripping about that though. Here we go with all the winners of the awards. Shout out to them for doing their thing. It’s not about y’all today though. Sack town. Sack town. Sack town. We got nothing. As you can imagine, we were actually pretty okay on the second half of the season. We ended up with 32 wins. We won the last game of the season. The great momentum, but the ones before that we were on a nineame loser streak. So that’s cool. That’s cool. We’re going to have some odds. And at the end of the day, you know, it’s about drafting well. It’s about drafting well. The one seed Atlanta Hawks lost in the first round. We got Mavericks versus Knicks and the Mavericks end up winning. I don’t think we did a trade with the Mavericks, so we didn’t help them win. They just won straight up. Here is the lottery. All right, so right now we have the sixth and 12th best odds. We got the first pick. Come on. It’s exactly how I drew it up. Oh my god, I sound like Nico Harrison. This is how I wanted it to go. Come on, man. It don’t get better than this. We got pick one. We got pick 13. Oh my god, who would have thought when we made that trade that we’d be winning the lottery. The first overall pick in this year’s draft is Dana Murphy. He is only a 68 center, right? But he got a Hall of Fame ceiling and his floor is Dave Collins, who’s a Hall of Famer. So, he’s a small center. He is a really small center, but I’m very intrigued about what he could be. Um, this dude got Larry Bird silling. That’s not going to make me rethink it because we got the 20-year-old center. I am so excited about this. Yeah, this ain’t no Wimbody draft. Sure. This this ain’t no LeBron draft. Sure. But we got the first pick, baby. All right, we got pick one and 13, right? So, we got more stuff to see. The Utah Jazz traded the fifth pick for Jordan Pool. Shout out to the Pelicans for that. Um, that is a huge upgrade for them. I think we got the Bulls trading their pick away for Larry Market. And he’s back, baby. Back where it all started. Okay, so here we go with our second pick. Whoa. JP Clemens. The ceiling. This is the This is a wide range, ladies and gentlemen. He’s got the ceiling of David Thompson in the floor of a bench player, which means that basically he’s he’s can be a Hall of Famer or he could be out of the league in a couple years. None of his right now attributes look intriguing at all. But he’s only 20 years old. Y’all know I like taking the swings, man. We’re the Sacramento Kings. We have to try to take some swings. We got Vince Cart and Lamar ODM for this guy, though. He’s He’s a 66 small four and he’s Oh, never mind. Forget that. Um, any of these other guys got good ceilings and floors. I think I got to take the big shot of the video and say JP Clemens, man, 65 shooting guard out of Florida State. You know, them Florida State boys usually can defend. I don’t know if he going to be one of them. This guy’s got Robert Ory as a ceiling. We could We would love a Robert Ory. Robert Ory be be shooting and he be winning more than anything. Okay, listen. Good draft. Hopefully. Good draft. Hopefully you got 70 78 70 and the 70. I’m going to take that. Player progression. Ron Holland, I’m looking at you. He jumps up five. That’s great. Paul George drops two. Struda Shruder drops two or drops one. Uh Maxine jumps two. Okay. All right. Hey, hey, hey. Listen, we didn’t have a lot to do this offseason, y’all. We didn’t have nothing to do really. Everybody else was under contract. We might make some moves at the deadline here and sell off some of these pieces. But right now, I think we just had a really good off seasonason. All things considered, you know, well, last six, eight months, we trade for Darius Garland and then we still win the lottery. The starting lineup is DG to PG, PG13, I guess PG8 now, Ron Holland, Aldama, and then we got Dana Murphy there and then the bench is Koozma and so on and so forth. So, one thing I will do before the season starts, okay, Koozma’s already on the block. Cool. I’m gonna put um John Isaac on the block. I’m gonna put Shruder on the block. And that might be it. That might be it. And somebody’s gonna bite on one of those dudes. I already know. First game of the season is a loss by a lot, but that’s okay. DJ the PG did his thing. First game for the big fella. He had five turnovers and three fouls, but he did go against Nicole Joic and held him to 13 points. I’m going to say that was all him. Second game of the season is a loss, too. Guess what? But losing right now doesn’t matter. You know, we got our own first round pick again, don’t we? I think. Oh no, we traded it away. Oh my god. I think I top five protected it though. I top five protected. I ain’t tripping. Oh snap. I think I traded it away, though. I top five protected. It’s fine. Paul George, come on, man. It’s time for you to to to hoop. Um, he’s got a player option next year. Dang right now. He started off the season awful year. Here go the awards. Um, so a big fella didn’t shoot it very well. At one point in the season, he was shooting 30% from the field and 60% from three. Uh, I thought that was funny. Not very good, but he still won rookie of the year. So, fun stuff there. Uh, a lot of Spurs winning stuff and another bad season. That’s okay. Here’s what I’m going to say. Oh, we won a total of 30 games. This team or this draft class ain’t that crazy. We might we might still retain our pick because we were that bad. It’s going to take a little bit of luck and I know we had a bunch of luck last year. Kyrie Irving, Anthony Daves and company, they win a championship. They win it last year, too. They might have won it last year, too. So, they cooping. Um Kevin Durant, no. Drew Holiday, no. All of y’all, y’all got us. I’m just going to see if we get lucky. Boom. So, the pick was top five protected and it end up being number seven. Yikes. Ah, that’s okay. That’s okay. Orlando at the deadline was not a playoff team or no not the deadline but like in in in December they weren’t a playoff team. They eventually were and now we got the 21st overall pick. I’m not tripping about that because I think we can be buyers now. Who’s available? You know Darius Garland walked into the office and said, “Hey man, I need a I need another star next to me.” And I said, “Dana, don’t worry. That Dana kid, the guy that just drafted, he gonna be a star. I promise you. I promise you he going to be a star.” He said he need more. And I ain’t mad at him. So, we gonna try our very best to try to acquire a star for him. I just don’t know who that is just yet or how we get there. Jaylen Brown is on the market. He’s 30. He’s 30, which means he’s probably going to be regressing very soon, but he still is probably better than anything we can get right now. I’m going to call him up. I’m not giving up a ton a ton of assets. Hopefully. $61 million. $61 million. Oh my goodness. Um, we give them these two dudes. Boom. They want a 2029 and then the Clippers 2029. We still would have one more 2029 from the Pistons. That’s an easy trade. Are you kidding me? I mean, I know that Paul George has a player option. He’s going to accept that. So, we got to move Paul George’s deadline or buy him out or something. But, I think that’s that’s as good as it gets. All right. We’re starting to build something in Sacramento. We’re starting to build something. And guess what? But Lil Berg told me that Sacramento Kings, they about to get a little rebranded. That’s what I heard. I can’t confirm or deny it, but somebody told me that uh that this Sacramento Kings in this simulation is going to get rebranded. All right, we’re just going for a ceiling, right? Hall of Fame ceiling. Ray Allen, he’s 20 years old out of Oklahoma. You got yourself a deal. Abe Ross, I’m sorry. A dude named Abe probably not going to be a Hall of Famer. Well, no, he’s not going to be a holler. I’m going to trade big contract for big contract on a smaller timeline. Larry marketing, welcome to Sacramento. So, the way we going to run this lineup, JB at the two, Holland at the three, Larry at the four, then Murphy at the five. We’re really counting on Murphy being really good and hitting that ceiling. I won’t lie to you. Our bench is uh, you know, um, but that’s okay. We’re going to bring back Koosma uh because we have his bird rights. Not because we really want him, but he’s the best guy available with the bird rights. We’re going to bring in hopefully bring in D Melton and then we need another center. We’re going to bring back Jacqu Landale from the beginning of the video. I feel like that’s a really good offseason. Maybe I’m tripping, but I feel like that’s a really good offseason. Uh we’re not going to win a championship or nothing, but like the pick that we gave up shouldn’t turn into anything, right? This a playoff team minimal. It really depends on our boy jumping up seven. Yes. Where’s the other freak that we Yes, jumped up five. JP, I I think you might be rotational this year. You’re the second best shooting guard. You’re rotational this year. I like this Daryus Garland. We got to extend. Um I won’t lie to you, Larry Markin. We traded him. He He could be trade bait in a future trade just at this deadline. I’m just saying. I’m being honest with you. I told him straight up when we traded him like, “Hey, we want you here, but I can’t act like that our goal is to have you here for the entirety of the rest of your career.” I told him that as soon as we traded for him. So a ain’t no like, “Oh, I got blindsided.” Nope. Mm- not over here. We don’t blindside people. We let them know what it is. If they like it, they like it. If they don’t, they don’t. Garland, Brown, Holland, Markin, and then Murphy, then Aldama, Koozma, Landelle, Melton, Vousvich. No, it’s got to be this guy. Sorry V. Um, but it’s it’s got to be it’s got to be JP. I think I got to see what JP’s bringing to the table. Game one of the season is a win against the defending champions. By the way, Odama off the bench is such a chico. Larry Markin, I hope you shoot a little bit more. My starting center is shooting way more threes than he probably should considering he shot 25% last season. He’s only got a 713. Can we get rid of threes completely for you? It’s a 45. Like, why is it so high? I don’t know. Wardrobe change because in the midst of uh filming this video and simulator, my daughter threw up all over the Tim Ducken shirt. So, uh, 2005, White Socks, maybe the most forgotten about World Series team of all time. So, uh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, we’re about a 500 team going into the calendar year, which is fine right now cuz 500 team puts us in the mix. You know, all you got to do is be a couple games over 500 to be in the postseason. So, I’m cool with that. Um, I forgot to show you. I talked about a rebrand. And boy, we got to look at Jaylen Brown in these brand new Sacramento Kings jerseys. Why is he wearing Arab tempos? I’m not completely sure because he definitely definitely would not be wearing that at real time. But um yeah, man. New jerseys, new logo is we turned a new leaf as a Sacramento Kings organization. Not all of our players are playing extremely well, but that’s that’s okay. That’s completely fine. Uh we are a 500 team and I’m just I’m stopped right here because I wanted to see who was selling and rebuilding. Right now, nobody really is. So, we got to go one more month. Hopefully, we’re above 500 and that’ll justify us buying a little bit more. I I know that when I traded for Jaylen Brown, I was not thinking about us teetering 500. Who is our coach? Wow. That was something we didn’t think about at all until right now. Our coach is D is Dante Chandler. Get out of here. Who is that? Now we got Mr. Frasier in here. Mr. Mrs. Miss Frasier. Was that a woman? I think that might have been a woman. I believe so. All right, we’re breaking barriers here in Sacramento. First game is her as the head coach and it’s a blowout win. Ooh, look at our guys. All right, we’re going to simulate to about the deadline and see if we can again be buyers. I’m trying to trade Larry Markin. Oh, for Chris Asperzing. They only took a second round pick. Chris Asperzing is cheaper right now. And this is what I’m thinking we have to do. I think Murphy is just too small to play the five fulltime. We’re going to make him a four and put Porzingis at the five. I think that helps our team a lot. Again, like I said, I I I told Larry Markin that we love you, but you ain’t safe. If something else comes available, we have to do we got to do. And that’s something else end up being Porzingis. The start lineup looks good. The bench could be better, but it ain’t the worst thing in the world. I’mma give my boy JP some more minutes. Uh, how’s he performing in his real time as an NBA player? Not awful. Okay. All right. Not to sell. He might he might end up having that Hall of Fame ceiling, that David Thompson ceiling that they promised us. Here’s some wins after the Porzingis move. I like that. We should be a playoff team, which is exactly what we asked for. We didn’t ask to be contenders right now. We just wanted to be a playoff team and right now we’re that cuz I’m thinking about Murphy’s progression. I’m thinking about JP’s progression. If we just keep this court together and I already extended Darius Garland, we should be good enough to maybe make the big adjustment next season. Who got injured? Jaylen Brown is out for the season. So, that’s fun for everybody involved, right? I guess it’s time for JP to get into that starting lineup, right? Hey, man. They’re calling for you to do it. They’re calling for you to do it. Dang, dude. All right, let’s see what he really looks like if we give him full minutes. We won by a gazillion points. 164 65 and two. Hold on, bro. Is he actually the truth? Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Since he got two games as a starter, he put up 26 the first game. Seven and five. He He going to be a staty filler. We lost that one, but he Yeah, dude. Oh my goodness. He got six offensive rebounds from the the shooting guard position. Jaylen Brown getting injured. I mean, it’s going to hurt us as far as total wins this year, obviously. But is there a world where Jaylen Brown is now expendable because JP is the new started shooting guard? Hey, man, I I can’t say it’s out of the realm of possibility. It looked like we going to teeter around 500 post Jaylen Brown injury. Um, but wow. All right, Winyama. You knew that. Here are all the awards. Cool, cool, cool. Uh, no Sacramento, but we did end up making the seventh seed. Cool. playin. Here we are. How is this team a playin team? Reed Shepard, I’m in Thompson, Kevin Ranch, Barcorn. I’m not completely sure. I’m not completely sure. We probably don’t win that game, do we? Nope. We lost by 14. Next game. Oh, we lost to the Lakers, too. Hey, if we had Jaylen Brown, I feel like we win one of those games, but we didn’t. So, whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever. We said we wanted to be in the the playoffs. We were not. We were in the postseason, but not the playoffs. Murray Boils, conference finals MVP off the bench. And this this Mavericks team is just killing the association. I can’t wait to see them for real. I can’t wait to see them next season. Paul George retiring. I ain’t mad at that. Damen Lillard, I’m mad at though. Here’s a lottery. Boom. Our pick ended up being 14th to the Bulls. So, the Bulls got 14 and 15. We not tripping about that. Not tripping about that at all. Does Jaylen Brown become expendable because JP is ready? That’s just that’s ring that’s what’s ringing in my head right now. I ain’t going to lie to you. That’s what’s ringing in my head. I didn’t realize if we had a first round pick or not. We do. 28th overall pick. Cool. We drafted a center. His name is Daario. Just wanted another big body in the locker room. A progression. I know Murphy is gonna be nice. I’m really looking at at JP. Murray jumps up to a 90. Porzingis drops. JP’s an 81. He’s a shock rating and threelevel threat. Ross jumps up for I don’t even Oh, I remember drafting you, Abe. I told you you can’t be an all-star because your name is Abe. Uh yeah, good team, good team, not a great team. But again, I’m questioning if there’s a swing to be made. I’m questioning if there’s a swing to be made. You know, I’m thinking about it and Jaylen Brown’s contract is huge, right? 60. He’s not even ready yet. 64 million last year of that deal. It’s one of the biggest contracts in all of basketball. It’s only behind like Jason Tatum. Nobody else is even making that money. Oh my goodness. It’s really just him on the island. Him and Giannis who plays in Brooklyn now. Him and Carne Towns in Brooklyn. Okay, Brooklyn. Use that free agency money then. All right, so we don’t even have Jaylen Brown to start the season. So, none of that is really relevant. Yeah, we might not look good until Jaylen Brown comes back. Yeah. Yeah. Jaylen Brown is not expendable, ladies and gentlemen. I’m sorry. I don’t even know why I thought it was a possibility. He’s He’s definitely not expendable. Um, okay, that’s some wins. We’ll we’ll see when he come back. We’ll talk. When he comes back, we’ll talk. Would Jaylen Brown be expendable if that means Jason Tatum comes to the team? Oh, man. Uh, I I feel like we’re very close, by the way. Um, wow. They’re the two seed and they saying Trey Young is on the market. I’m just looking at the teams around the league and I just feel like our Kings can can make some happen. I just feel like they can we can make something happen here, man. So, I’m going to try to pull off a reunion for Jaylen Brown, but a Jason Tatum coming to Sack Town. You feel me? They’re going to say no. Obviously, they got to make a 14 million. Anthony Simons is still there. Shout out to Anthony. Um, and Derek White. Okay, now we asking for a lot, but if I’m not mistaken, yes, Detroit Pistons stink this year. So, if y’all are really a selling team, that first round pick should be so interesting to y’all. Can I even get more here? Here’s an Here’s a bull. Oh my goodness. Both of these picks are worth everything. Both of these picks are worth everything. And they still they they playing hard ball, bro. I didn’t even take the trade. Oh my goodness. Yo, that that that’s the most value in draft capital I have ever had that I should I have tried to spend it somewhere else. Like Tatum right now at a 95 is what the fourth best player in basketball. It don’t get better than that because when Mama’s team is good, Shay’s team is good and Yokic’s team is good. So yeah, we got the fourth best. He’s better than Giannis right now. We got the fourth best player in basketball. Top what? He’s up to a 95. Okay, that’s that is a ridiculous outcome. Um, so yeah, we’re gonna run Tatum at the three. He’s a 97. So now he want he not even he not even man. All right. Okay. So the lineup and I did give up Ron Holland because I I I thought that JP would be ready to start by the way. Um, he’s got pretty much everything. Three-point shooting, defense, play makes pretty good or pretty decently. Rebounds great for a guard as y’all saw. I think he might be ready. They want Porzingis to come off the bench for this Rudolph Simpson guy. I’m going to let Porzingis start, but it’s good to know that they are really high on Rudolph Simpson who’s averaged six and oh, eight rebounds, six assists this year as a seventh overall pick from a few years back. He still got potential. We got Derrick White to come off the bench, too. That’s a win. Derek White is averaging 13 points per game on good three-point shooting. We don’t need all I can’t believe Kyle Koosma is still on this roster, by the way. We’re going into year five or year year four of Cal Kosma being like a real part of our team. Is that good? I mean, obviously it ain’t bad. It ain’t hurting us. But wait, I think this Bucks pick might be really good, too, because they suck right now. Oh, it’s a it’s a next year pick, so it won’t be that good. Oh, there’s Davia. Davia Lillard. Deon Vel, Zack Lavine. I can’t just trade for a bunch of one-year contract, guys. Rob Dillingham, one-year deal. Um Keshan George. A lot of these trades are one-year trades. Max Christie and Kase Wallace. Kase Wallace is a stud. Y’all know that. Max Christie is not too bad either. Well, this year he is bad. OG and Jordan Pool. That’s just too good to pass up on, man. That’s too good to pass up on. That’s too good to pass up on, man. I’m sorry. Jordan Pool is going to be a a seventh man. Ninth man. I’m sorry. He’s going to be the ninth man. No way this team doesn’t win this year. That’s it. GG’s. Challenge over. Tatum is on 45% from three right now. Yeah. I I All right, we’re gonna sim and see rigged against Tatum is what they’re saying. He should have won MVP. Um here are all the awards. The Spurs, man. Y’all just win every award. We do get the most improved player in JP uh uh uh Cle Clemens. So that’s fun. Chat just averaged 2812 and two and a half blocks. He’ll never win a DPOI because Wimby exists. Um Oh my goodness. Um but he’s probably second every year. Yeah. And bro, they got this guy insane. Anyway, we did have two All NBA players. It is Jason Tatum and it is our boy Dana Murphy who averaged 1612, four assists, a block and a half a steel. Shooting splits are better. Former first overall pick. Making an AllNBA appearance in year three is pretty impressive, man. You got to give it got to give a lot of credit to him. and he made an alldefensive team. So, he’s really about that. We are the two seed in the Western Conference this year with a total of 58 wins. You take that. Where? Oh, we might see Dallas in the second round. That’s the team that’s been killing this simulation. Devin Booker, Jaylen Green, T Murphy, uh Jerry Anthony, and Malach. That’s a really nice comeback team for them. Sorry. Um considering where they are in real life to be in a postseason like this. Hey, man. But look, six made threes from Murphy is nuts because he shot 30% in the regular season. They got really unlucky that game. Game two, he was one of two. But maybe he’s just a playoff riser. Game three, we lose. Game four, we win. Do we see Dallas? We do. They barely made it out of the first round, though. So, they might they might have fallen off. They still got Kyrie. They got Sly Thomas. Why does Cooper Flag have a mustache like it’s 1982? I’m not sure, but that’s intriguing. Uh, what the heck? What what save foul am I on right now? We’re where Yang Hansen is playing his ball and then we we got Coopa Flag looking the way he do. Um, he scored five points. Jordan P came off the bench in 15 minutes, gave us 18 points. 20 series us. Oh, they they don’t stand a chance. Oh, okay. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay. 3-1 us. We going to blow 3-1 leads. We thought that was going to be our biggest competition. I guess not. Let’s see what the Minnesota Timberwolves are working with. Devin Carter, who we traded them for Mike Connley and a pick. I think they got Q Grimes. Anthony Edwards is injured. Am I Am I seeing that correctly? Because if Ant-Man is injured, then it’s a GG’s. This might be a four game series. Yeah, man. He’s out for one and two weeks. So, he might come back if they can ex Hold on. Let me Wait, what did I just see? Who’s on this team? Zion and Anthony Edwards. Ah, pretty interesting team. I hate for y’all. Philipowski gave us 40, by the way. Didn’t matter. Um, I hate for y’all that, you know, Anthony Evers is going to be out for this series. It would have been kind of interesting to see them play against each other, but nope. We do see the Washington Wizards going against our Sacramento Kings, Trey Johnson, Pods, Marian Picket, Bamio, Alex Hart. That front court is really good. If they got Porzingis coming off the bench, I ain’t going I ain’t going to mess around with it. Coach know what she doing. If she got Rudolph Simpson in there, Rudolph Simpson deserve it. Damn it. Here we go. NBA Finals. Game one is a loss. We didn’t put up any points. That’s fine. We going to change some things. Boom. All right. Game two. We win that one. Big win. 30 point win. Shout out to DG to PG. I told you DG. You come here, we going to retire your jersey. You come here, we going to retire your jersey. All we need is a couple big performances. It ain’t like this team win a bunch of rings. uh the rebranded Sacramento Kings, Jason Tatum wearing the number zero. Get yours, big fella. Finals MVP. Jordan Pool had a couple really good playoff games. Now, the the overall stats may not say that and he was on a minimum contract. He scored 25 and 23 in the closeout games and then in the other series he had a 18-point game in a couple minutes. So, Jordan Pool, good addition. And just like that, we win a championship. You know, we traded everybody and it only took what, five years? Uh, can we just go see the picks that we traded away? What did they end up being? Bulls. That wasn’t the pick. It was the third pick and the seventh pick. That’s good value. Like, if you going to restart your team, you trading away a great player. Getting the third pick and the seventh pick in that trade is not that bad. I don’t know what they going to do with those picks, but I you know what I’m saying? If you enjoyed the video, leave it a like. Subscribe, man. That was that was really really fun. There you go. Like the beam, baby. We they’re back with Tatum and Murphy. And matter of fact, can I do one more thing? I just want to see what the player progression is going to do, you know? I just want to see what Murphy ends up being. And I also JP JP, man, he had the biggest range for a player that I’ve seen. Oh my god. Thank god we traded for Tatum and we won immediately because he was about to he just hit free agency. He could have just walked. I don’t know why I’m resigning him like I’m going for another season, but I don’t like to see my players walk anyway. All right. He got a big old deal. Um yeah, from Hall of Fame ceiling to a floor that was a bench. We just don’t see that often, man. And it look like he fell somewhere in the middle. So, oh no, he’s on that Hall of Fame path. He’s 23 years old and he’s an 88. Yeah, he could have been him. Jumped up seven from three, driving dunk 99. Oh man, this dude was about to be the Oh my the rebounding stats, the defensive stats, and then Murphy was him too. Oh yeah. Yeah, we we could have ran it back and won another championship. And our boy Abe was going to be a real rotation player. We had people in the arc. We had people on on the backside that was about to come up and and and save the franchise. Rudolph Simpson as well. All right, I’m done. If you enjoyed the video, leave it a like, subscribe. I’ll see youall tomorrow. Peace.
