LAKERS GOTTA GRAB HIM UP THEY BEEN TALKING ABOUT WK FOR A MINUTE NOW
Those assholes wanted the moon and stars for him in a trade with the Lakers.. and NOW it's like "BOY BYE"? They could have at lesst gotten something decent in return! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ Danny ainge is strange
It's funny how the Jazz refuse to trade Kessler, but also won't extend him ๐
Danny Ainge would rather let WK walk than trading to Lakers ๐
I buy candy for the house. Too many severe allergies to be giving ๐ฌ to kids for Halloween.
He may go to Boston if they have the Money , Danny Ainge ties
Ainge may try to get AR for some kind of WK deal ๐คท๐ฝโโ๏ธ
4 years 80 is what I think a fair number is for walker kessler
Hesler a good team deal would be 20 a year
I am not a salary cap expert. but I think the reason they are not extending hi is that he is limited in how much he can be extended for and the jazz plan on paying him more than that. plus the money it would take to get him away from the jazz may be a sizeable shunk. I hear 30m a year.. but this means another year of teams scaving the jazz roster with this content ๐ but I do think he will be on the jazz by his choice
I think Kessler is worth four and 100M.
Kuminga should also ask for the extension, that way the warriors would have to go into training camp with only 9 guys.
TREVOR NEWSFLASH, NOBODY VALUES WALKER KESSLER THE WAY THAT YOU DO. HE'S NOT THAT GOOD
Like what is he doing?
Everything I've heard from the local media, is that Kessler wants a lot more than what the Jazz are offering. Something like $30m per vs the Jazz being closer to $20m per and neither party is budging.
man I feel for grimes. I hope he gets a chance to play on a good team to show his growth
Lakers should grab him!!!
Don't need weather reports…stick to sports fat boy
AR for walker Kessler
Lakers should make their offer again and see if the Jazz more willing to budge now
4:58: Was that a Darvin Ham call out? ๐
Iโm not surprised the Jazz realized their not breaking the bank for this slow mechanical, non athletic player yeah heโs a good defender but not worth the price and heโs highly overratedโฆall that talk for 11pts 12rebs, nah Iโll pass 18 mil tops
TRADE DALTON AND GABE FOR GRIMES, AND WE'LL GIVE HIM 13 MILL IN A GROWING CONTRACT THAT ENDS AT 18 MILL
The Lakers should try to pick up KJ Martin – he's a young athletic wing.
Too many Lakers fans forget Ayton and Luka have the same agent. Lakers can't piss them off by going for WK – we on the Ayton train and we have to see how it plays out.
Trust me jk taking it all the way to the buzzer, ain't no fun when the rabbit got the gun ๐๐๐ this is what happens when u deal in bad faith.
Kessler makes sense to me.
Restricted free agents have not been getting offers and even if they do. Utah just matches if they want.
I'd be willing to bet Kessler wanted a big big deal to agree and Utah was like. Nah we are gonna wait and figure it out next summer.
Imo this means absolutely nothing for his long-term nor do I see them desperately shopping him.
I lived in Tucson for 20 years so I know about that Phoenix heat and OMG!!! And then they have a small kinda farm town called Avondale that has nothing but flies ๐ Sounds like he is describing Lake Havasu the hottest place in America ๐ฅต
Dalton and a first
Trade AR for Kessler
Kumiga should give the Warriors the middle finger and sign 1155 pm September 30th 1 year deal
It is surprising. Pretty much means the Jazz are admitting they're more open to trading Kessler than what's been recently reported.
The jazz want to trade him, but they are greedy. Teams are not paying 2 first round picks that are unprotected AND going him 25 million a year. They will be lucky to get an unprotected first and 2 seconds
25 million donโt even sound like a lot. If thatโs whatโs he asking for and the jazz wonโt give it to him, thatโs mad grimy. These owners and gms are getting out of hand
The sixers saw what I saw , VJ Edgecomb ๐ . Grimes and Edgecomb the same size, Edgecomb is a Dog with jumper and gets to the rack
Kessler is worth 20mil a year tops… If I'm the Lakers I would be pressing Utah 1 last time, DK/Gabe/1st/2nd for Kessler/KJ Martin… Ayton can play the AD role at PF.. Lakers would have their own version of the "twin towers".. this trade would also cover up for the Lakers non defensive back Court. I would also cut Maxi
โContest without fouling โ
lakers go get him
Holy shit trev I'm a fan of your videos from lakers nation and basketball bulletin but this sleeper promo is getting out of hand. Holy shit bruh get your bag but this is hella OD gaddayumn every single video. How much are they paying you bruh?
The Warriors are Light Years into Oblivion
