Rebuilding the Utah Jazz… Is It Impossible?

Rebuilding the Utah Jazz… Is It Impossible?

all right all right all right so today I am rebuilding the worst team in the NBA currently the Utah Jazz now my research on my own channel told me that I have not touched the Jazz with a 10-ft wooden pole in about 3 years before they even traded Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobear and well now they’re technically number one in the race for Mr cooper flag granted the current lottery format is so stupid that since they changed the lottery format the worst team has never gotten the first pick but we’ll just pray and yeah we’ll talk about the team in the offseason we got nothing to look forward to for these last two games the coachless Nuggets make the finals i only say coachless because well they fired Mike Malone and the dude who got promoted said “Yeah I’d give Joic the clipboard a few times if I needed to.” And well it looks like it worked okay this rarely ever happens but I’m sitting here with my jaw dropped at what I just did you know I come out of here in like muscle memory to the player retirements every time and I just override most of these guys right you want to know whose retirement I just overrode steph Curry i’ve never seen him try to retire first also before I do the lottery shout out to this dude named Aiden who DM’d me and said to use this draft class that I’m using i’ve even seen complaints about it in the comment section i complain about in the video some of these draft classes at the top just make the players so insanely overratedly good so he said this is supposed to be good so we’ll see how it looks anyways it’s time for the lottery i would consider it good luck that we’re five picks in and nothing has changed yet but it’s bound to happen definitely thought it was going to be the Spurs and there it is the Raptors jump up the Nets and the Raptors wait oh no we’re about to fall to five we’re about to fall to five pelicans go to six i swear to you if Utah falls from 1 to five please for the love of Oh my god oh my god oh yeah this might be impossible we got We got the Pistons treatment the NBA I’m So hey I might be in the minority here the NBA should have ne never should have changed the lottery and if they wanted to make it random they should have never made it that the first pick could fall down to five if anything I disagree with the former format where you could fall down to four i think the lowest of the worst teams should be able to fall down to is three in my personal opinion while the trade difficulty is one on 100 I am definitely not trying to do this realistically and I say that because Utah does have some assets that I can maybe use to try and move up oh also by the way 2K is trying to give OKC our pick next year yeah that’s not happening i know that protection can’t be right now the first pick is definitely out of our bounds and low key all of them might be but specifically the first pick because it’s Toronto and they have a big-time payroll so we can’t trade any players into their cap space cuz they have none if there’s anything any team I think would be willing to move down a few spots though it’ probably be Charlotte and there you go um this was one of the worst trades in NBA history jordan Clarkson a second round pick a first round pick in 2029 kenyon Martin Jr and Si Macalluk or Malik or whatever the hell his name is to move up two spots in the draft you know what i could take that for Utah i really do want to get one of these top three players either Dylan Ace or Cooper so we got one of them guaranteed at least now this team still has Lori Markin who’s making like $50 million a year and took a bit of a step back this year and only played in like half of the games john Collins will probably enter free agency i’d consider resigning him just because I could also use him as a trade asset but I mean he’s also an 85 overall i wouldn’t be against I would say keeping him but granted I don’t know how some of these ages fit our timeline for this team i do like some of Utah’s players like Isaiah Kier he averaged 12 and 8 and 46 games as a as a starter but Leowski’s turned out to be pretty good although their 10th pick from last year Cody Williams has done nothing so far but that being said though none of this really affects our draft pick first overall Cooper Flag second Brooklyn are they Oh I thought they were going to trade it dylan Harper and third overall Ace Bailey it says maybe a bit more realistically that he has all NBA ceiling not you know greatest player of all time yeah we’re just going to go with him before we go any further I want to thank you to Prize Pix for sponsoring Bailey and a first round pick from us for the next pick and Marcus Smart oh yeah let’s just Yeah no and I don’t know who the hell the Hornets are selected with fifth so good thing we weren’t there shout out to VJ Edgecomb though we also have the 21st 20th and 21st in the second round but 21st and the first round we are going to actually make another trade i was messing around with trades in the trade foundinder and I found this Colin Ston the pick that we are selecting with right now as well as one of our second round picks of the Portland Trailblazers for Robert Williams the third and Derek Queen the 10th overall pick in the draft i’ve spread some Derrick Queen propaganda on this channel and there’s probably not a better team to build around him with than the Utah Jazz cuz you know you kind of need to start over a little bit and we also get Williams who’s damn nearly the same overall as Colin as is so uh yeah I’ll take it thanks early on with Jordan Clarkson and Collins texting gone we get rid of two guys that feel like I’ve been on the trade block for Utah forever specifically Jordan Clarkson i think I said this recently but I saw a highlight tape of the Jazz or something of somebody from 2019 and I saw Jordan Clarkson on the Jazz and I’m like damn they need to let him out of there with our second round pick I’m going to take Canyon Catchings also says he’s from BYU so he’s not coming too far to pull up to the team said he had all-star ceilings so I decided to take a shot and well Ace Bailey’s a 79 we get Queen was a 75 john Collins actually accepted his player option that’s not too surprising though but I have seen him decline it in this game before and the interesting part about that is that it leaves us at 15 total players already before signing anybody and I don’t like the fact that we still feel like the Utah Jazz now we could resign Collins at about 15 million a year for his production this is not bad at all okay the time has flown i didn’t realize it’s already been this many years but Walker Kesler is also about to expire and he wants 20 million a year although I’m definitely going to finesse him but yeah he wants 20 i will say though I’m going to go ahead and give him this now cuz I don’t see a road where Walker Kesler is not the center for this team so yeah there you go all right so let me explain my current plan so two players okay one thing that has happened with the trading of Colin Ston is that we basically have two point guards a bunch of guards that I don’t want to play and a surplus of wings and bigs now the obvious trade candidates right now are Robert Williams who I kind of just got back for the hell of it and John Collins because also we definitely have to start Ace Bailey but do I start Ace Bailey as a big shooting guard or do we move Markin back to power forward like he used to play or was Markin and eventually Hey there’s a lot to be answered here i think a lot of this depends on how the team is going to play for me as I simulate this right but for the time being we do have a lot of money to spend well enough money I should say now the Utah Jazz tax has hit us because by being the Utah Jazz Quentyn Grimes does not want to come here i offered him the max money I could about the same money as the Sixers or the Pistons offer him two teams that he spent time on and he’s probably just going to go back to Philly but who is hearing me out as Cam Thomas now will the Nets match this or will they be weird and go sign Julius Randle or James Harden nope we got Cam Thomas yep we are about to This is You know what we have an identity we are the Shot Chuckers cam Thomas Ace Bailey Lorie Markin just run around and shoot the damn ball now in order to do this I’m going have to trade Johnny Juang for a Heat lottery protected first this is me effectively betting on the Heat’s downfall and I’m going to resign John Collins for the time being only because this contract is not bad and I could just trade it anyways so let’s do it by the way yeah the Nets always signed Julius Randle now i don’t know good for them though don’t ask me why Brandon Miller was a free agent i my guess is as good as yours anyways that concludes our 2025 free agency we don’t need anything else i could have signed a two-way player but I don’t really care walker Kessle went up by three overalls that surprises me even and while I don’t know or kind of maybe know while our lineup what our lineup’s going to look like to start the season yeah I don’t know welcome to Utah i couldn’t tell you the last time I did this welcome to the summer league oh we got eliminated in the first round this is good this team is an absolute battle for minutes right now well I’m going to start Cam Thomas Ace Bailey Lori Markin and Walker Kesler and give them all 30 minutes as well as John Collins with 24 off the bench after that I mean George is playing 22 kier’s got 18 off the bench then you got Philip Powowski at 16 Queen Sensible Cody Williams and Taylor Hendricks all on the rotation this is not going to be the rotation for the rest of the year or even close to it i’m just trying to get a feel for what the hell some of these guys can do oh yeah this is all with Robert Williams not even playing he’s just going to be a trade piece at some point in this and he’s only got one year left on his contract so it’s got to be soon first game of the season against Luca why are we actually kind of giving them a run for their money well it was a good game at least but we got dogged by Luca and LeBron keonte George with 28 on 11 for 15 ace Bailey with a solid out outing in his first game and Derek Queen with 12 and 12 minutes off the bench well the first month this slight tank is definitely succeeding as we are three and 13 wasn’t an intentional one and if anything this team has a handful of talent on it but we’re not winning games three and 16 is the worst record in the league so far cam Thomas is getting them shots up so is marketing he’s playing well too i don’t know if he’s ever going to be worth $50 million though that’s the only problem ace Bailey is averaging 15 and six boards damn near with three assists on 45 from the probably the three assists the most surprising part of this on 45 from the field and 34 from three to start his career and Derek Queen with six and three on pretty d Oh my god what am I saying pretty decent shooting i mean yeah everyone’s just okay that’s really it that’s kind of the I mean not really though cuz we stink telling me that Cody Hendricks and Philipki are all hurting the team so that’s something to keep note of but it’s not really good when you none of your good players are really giving you wins either i’m not sure if I really care but Kyle Filipowski has also requested a trade all right well we’re going to make the most out of this Robert Williams value by getting another potential trade piece for him the Lakers are willing to pay up heavy for a center for the first time next to Luca and Braun as they’ll give me a first round pick and Ruie Himura so yeah thanks then I’m going to trade Ruie and Tquavon Smith don’t ask where this dude came from for the Spurs for Harrison Barnes in a first round pick from Atlanta as well i actually had this exact offer on the table for Robert Williams so this is a great way to truly get the most out of your value thank you very much i’m going to keep Harrison Barnes and not play him in the name of veteran presence cuz he can’t really get us anything back on the trade market i guess for now though with that situated we’re just going to keep simulating is this really Walker Kesler’s value devin Carter and nothing else man this is really is this really what it feels like to be a Jazz fan i’ve stopped at the beginning of the February of February because we’ve seen enough now things have become a lot more prevalent as time has went on ace Bailey is having a pretty okay rookie season marking in his eh cam Thomas is doing what he has to do i mean honestly I couldn’t even imagine where we’d be without him considering that we’re already the worst team in the league considering that I took away most of his minutes or at least eight of them john Khan is still playing pretty well but yeah but let’s talk about the bad isaiah Kier is shooting 37% from the field and at an 82 overall already is he really going to get much better than this i don’t know taylor Hendrickx is also shooting sub 40% from the field and 23% from three granted in like 2 minutes a game well 10 but honestly I think I’m not really here to be super critical of the young players that aren’t playing that well because that’s just kind of our direction right now if anything I think we should be maybe just a little bit better like fighting for a playing seat or something especially with Cam here and obviously no injuries healthyish team but I I think some of the blame has to go on market and he’s bringing in the six most wins on the team which is less than Derek Queen and Ace Bailey derek Queen barely even plays and this stuff is really dependent upon how much you play so I think at this deadline we might as well not waste time and just start to test his value either that or maybe during the offseason i’m I’m going to look through those during the offseason because his contract’s kind of been tradable right now when I put him in there the only thing I’m getting back is Paul George but for now though I’m moving marketing to the bench we’ve seen what we needed to see john Collins is getting giving me better production on way less minutes so he’s going to get the starting spot and I’m also giving Derek Queen a lot more minutes off the bench let’s see what he can do to finish out this season i’m not trying to win more but if we do shoot i’m just trying to get a blueprint for some reason Harrison Barnes will resign you know man I might talk to you during the offseason you might be our vet for life if you want to resign you’re not even playing the team is getting more and more mad at me as time is going on just because I guess we’re losing league source is reporting that Kesler will declare free agency this summer are they sure about that we’ve beat the Thunder and the Celtics at points in this past month but we It looks like we might just have the last spot in the draft you know wait why are we winning so many games okay hold on i might intentionally tank let’s Let’s chill out all right I low-key tanked and it worked we got every single loss for the rest of the season which might have locked up the number one pick or whatever odds which didn’t do do us very well last season dylan Harper one rookie of the year but Ace Bailey did average 16 six and three which is about on par what Cooper did and about the same amount of minutes granted Cooper is on Toronto which has way more wing talent i mean we have a decent amount too but yeah and I guess Harper was better than them all oh that is true they did actually draft Harper so it doesn’t make that much it’s not that crazy that they let Cam Thomas go I guess i don’t know trying to rationalize things josh Giddy six man of the year for the Pistons that’s like three videos in a row he’s done this we had Ace Bailey and Derek Queen as the according to this third and fourth best rookies i’ll take it damn that many rookies did not play hey shout out to the realistic class cuz I guess they are super low overall to where they did not we should have finished with 19 wins which just puts us one win thankfully we did not win any games cuz one win in front of the Wizards i’ll take it and the cat what the hell hey the Nets might have had some going for him by doing what they did first of all shout out to Harper and I Yeah Julius Randall for leading their team to the conference finals in year one of whatever this is and the Spurs win the ring i told you look Steph Curry you are unable to overturn this player’s decision retire he is done he is sick and tired of this sport this has got to be the greatest retirement point guard class ever even Kyle Lowry retired all right moment of truth the number one odds again who’s in here a I’m pretty sure AJ Deonta goes to BYU right so we can you know what I’m saying negate your travel but watch I already know they’re going to make it another year in a row where the number one does not get number one all right we’re at number six and nothing has changed and this is definitely where it’s going to change hornets yep they jump up the Suns and the Hornets jump into the top four we are about to fall to five again here it is number five the Utah Jazz nope it’s the Hornets okay we stay in the top four and number four the Utah No okay we stay in the top three you know what this is decent so have the Wizards this is probably it though yeah this is it this is Oh my god the Knicks get the third pick from the Wizards they shouldn’t have that but we won’t talk about it for now all right come on is Is it actually Okay we get two that’s okay that’s not bad and the Suns definitely need this first pick just as much as we do not really they don’t deserve it as much cuz they’ve screwed up their own franchise where I don’t know yeah i mean hey I’m going to offer the bag to Joe Mazula all right no coach wants to come here not even the doctor wants to come here we’re just going to get Michael Ster oh wait he might not accept either let’s Oh god okay he He’s here we almost didn’t have enough money for him and now we don’t have any money for a team doctor but you know what we don’t need one there’s no injuries on screw him well they’re showing us some of the overalls for these player oh yeah that’s right we get Camboozer AJ Debonsa this is perfect this is good the draft actually has Darren Peterson as number two ranked but I think if Camboozer’s there well actually damn actually we definitely need a guard more than Well no we don’t really need either now i don’t know best player available I guess you remember in the old 2K we used to be able to consult your scouts mid draft and like ask them what they wanted you to draft i think I would go with that in this just just off the vibe since we’re a struggling team ourselves I have some sympathy for the Wizards as well i’m trading them back their pick that they should have but 2K is dumb i say that because I was looking at the draft lottery and well trying to find destinations for Lori Markin to be honest with you holy hell the Nets made it to the conference finals as the 10th seed they weren’t even just a a low playoff team they were a super playing team if that happened this year that’d be insane well the only team offering me anything with a semblance of sense none of the top 10 picks when I go to Tradefinder even offer me a trade for marketing they actually want guys like John Collins or or Cam Thomas but the OKC Thunder they’re willing to give me the 10th and the 14th picks for marketin and Atlanta’s first next year um I actually am a bit hesitant to give up Atlanta’s first but they were in the playoffs this year so that or at least the play in they should be all right at least for one more year but this will simply clear his money off of our books we should have a decent amount of change and not only that we’ll get the 10th and 14th picks obviously his value has tanked greatly so this is what it is now and uh also this is a slight sabotage though Casey as usual because he’s not very good right now and he also makes 46 million but they could still resign everybody they need to because you know they can just go over the cap so that’s it that’s the end of the marketing era in Utah we now have the 10th and 14th picks as well i like it not bad now I think this season also gave us a decent distinction as to who will and who won’t stay well for one a lot of them don’t want to stay sensible HR they all even Harrison Barnes end up getting mad at me at the end of the day i guess he’s not coming back this trade leaves a lot of potential for basically every position whether backup or starter mostly backup though all right so with the first pick in the draft the Sun select Darren Peterson oh wow so AJ Deansa is available at number two hey man we need franchise changers also for some reason it says he went to Auburn i am changing that we got to rip Utah and get ready to play next to Ace Bailey i guess let’s do it aj Deona welcome to Utah again there will be another arenas in Orlando so it looks like a lot of these dudes what I saw one all-star King Fleming but a lot of these dudes are basically just projected as starters good starters or you know close to it maybe i low-key pulled the trigger a little bit too fast but I decided to go and offer the 10th and the whatever the hell 14th pick to the Magic for Elijah Arenas and they accepted so with our I guess eighth overall pick we have selected Elijah Arenas so that’ll be I kind of looked at all the names well this is what it was the names at the top of the board that were available were mostly bigs and there’s a few guards right around this range like you know a lot of bigs and wings but we really needed a reputable guard since well Kier wasn’t that good last year and also I mean we don’t really have another one except for him George and Thomas so yeah I went and got an arenas and that’s it that’s it for this draft call it a day there they want me to decline Taylor Hendrick’s contract i’m not going to do that but good to know though things they they want him to be mid or they think he’ll be mid so Deontay George is saying he’ll resign and he wants a bag he wants about 26 million a year this would start next season now this is the year where we have some cap space though and like I just mentioned I mean even Taylor Hendris who maybe we shouldn’t even be keeping 7 million could have declined it could just go trade him right now for some picks we are going to do what I said i am trading Taylor Hendricks to the Thunder back for that Atlanta pick as well as one more pick a Dallas or OKC pick in 2028 and it is for a reason two reasons i said what I said about OKC being able to resign their guys and they still can but I’m trying to get grimy i just gave him 8 million in salary i want JDub now look I’ve done some research and JDub he might just get it hey match back i’m not going to get him right possibly but I do have a second option if that’s the case i’m going to offer him day one as well i also needed to make that trade to offer that guy as well so you know it’s not a lost call this season you know we were a terrible offensive team 25th in the league but nonetheless not the worst we were the far and away the worst defensive team and I mean we’re a whole I don’t even know what I would call this but a defensive rating point I guess just a point behind even the Wizards who were second worst so yeah I mean they do have Sar and all that type of stuff and Kula Bali but that that this is bad this is bad our best perimeter defender is Cody Williams he barely even plays aj Debons is second and he just got on the team so when you look at the best perimeter defenders out here a dude who might make all defense this year is JDub obviously brings you a lot offensively as well now the second option too who already has an offer back from Atlanta is Dyson Daniels he could instantly slot in as our defensive lock down player if I gave him the super bag but I am much more comfortable giving the super bag to JDub who gives you way more offensively obviously another possibility is Jiren although I don’t know the thought of Jiren and Walker Kesler together is kind of nasty to me but them two with AJ Deansa and Ace Bailey out there just shooting the ball to their you know to their heart’s desire could work and I mean Jiren could score too obviously I don’t know why I’m saying it like he’s not averaging like 17 a game off that damn floater but yeah I was looking at some of the cheesy 2K players like Josh Giddy and giving him that money but I realized defensively should be our focus so I’m going to lock it in for JDub but I’m I’m scared i don’t even think it’s going to work it also won’t let me offer it won’t let me offer him more than that for some reason i got a great idea i offered Dyson as well but I’m offering chat and JDub to give them an ultimatum will they match both of them in the same day or will this confuse them damn they matched it damn they matched both oh my god they didn’t match Dyson though i just thought about that cuz you notice how I declined Chad’s offer and they still tell me that they matched it i declined Dyson’s offer and it didn’t tell me they matched his okay we have got Dyson Daniels on guess what a 4-year $130 million deal that is also front-loaded it is a lot of bread he is not the flex seal fix that Jaylen Williams would have been both offensively and defensively but I’ll take it he’s instantly the best overall player on the team and low key I didn’t even consider this but he could just go back to the one and start at the one all right so that is the end of our free agency dyson literally every player on our team went up an overall so that’s cool dyson’s up to an 88 cam’s an 87 kesler’s an 88 george is an 85 85 for Bailey as well matter of fact I think before this progression period Deonster was like the fourth best player on the team so a lot of guys improved well which is good to see i also just signed this dude Noah to a 4-year deal found him in free agency said he had a minus potential and he got a little bit better it said he was a versatile defender you could see he has pretty good defense so uh maybe that’s promising for the future he was a high second round pick last year i really wanted to keep this like realistic draft thing going but the dude who makes those other ones which seem pretty good does not have any more so I went and took the most popular ones and just lowered the potentials for now so the here’s the 2027 draft except I lowered the hell out of the potentials for literally everybody i just kind of just took control well you know you I went to the edit screen and lowered it and do nothing too meticulous i forgot to resign Kee in the offseason and now he wants even more money cuz his overall went up a bit but thankfully I can still actually resign him i thought it would have hit the deadline by now since I locked us in with the money already though with Dyson Daniels i think I’m just going to lock this in as well so welcome back he’s played good so far at least but yeah this is actually the lineup I’m going to go with i don’t have the minutes right yet but I am going to bench him though and start Dyson Cam Thomas AJ Ace Bailey and Walker Kesler yeah screw it this will be our oddly symmetrical lineup with basically 28 minutes to all the starters 23 minutes to Collins Queen and George off the bench and then 15 minutes to Philip Powowski and Kier i know we have three bigs off the bench but they’ll figure it out the Bonsa dropped 15 in his NBA debut on Kawhi Leonard and we won so far not perfect but definitely not all bad as we’re about the eighth to ninth seed in the conference like a month and a half in we’re in the plane at 11 and 14 cam is averaging 20 points taking a hell of a lot of the shots but we are still getting 14 and a half from Bailey and 14 from Debons they’re both pretty efficient so is Cam though cam is shooting 50 40 almost 90 dyson’s at 11 and five a game with also three turnovers which is kind of crazy i didn’t really notice but he kind of did this last year as well but at least he averaged more assists at the very least though so far nobody is hurting the team and we are actually borderline top 10 in defense in the league it’s actually our calling card so far which is a bit surprising after last year so Dyson has inspired one hell of a turnaround and maybe also the lack of Markin him being replaced by Deansa is another defensive boost our offense is actually the part that’s struggling we’re bottom well we’re 24th kier is yet again shooting 39% from the field though and he is the least impactful player on the team he doesn’t play a lot though shout out to the Warriors they signed Trey Young and brought back James Wiseman for the time being though we’re just going to keep trudging on at least till the deadline hey crazily enough I just got offered Lori Markin like on this day January 21st he got traded 5 days ago to the Sixers for Paul George just thought I’d mention that paul George back to the Thunder by the way the Warriors also fired Steve Cerr and traded Oh wait never mind they traded four James Wisman the team is super odd over the past 30 days we’ve now moved into a top 10 offense but a bottom 10 defense which is random as hell and as the deadline gets closer and closer we’re 20 and 25 um the West is looking kind of mid in the playing aspect but this isn’t super promising but you know it’s kind of where I wanted to get to just not where we want to be or where I wanted to get to this season maybe do we still kind of look like the Utah Jazz though yeah yeah we do all right so today is a trader line now I was looking at some trades and I think the thing I want to wait for to potentially trade for another star player to complement this team would actually be waiting for Kee George’s extension to kick in this off seasonason for that $30 million tag because despite his like bad advanced stats bad stats overall I still believe that Dyson Daniels was a good addition to this team but George so far isn’t providing much impact whatsoever he’s more of a box score type of guy and well he isn’t really giving us much of anything and he’s getting a decent amount of minutes he’s playing 22 a game i mean he’s playing good but based off what I have to go off of he’s not playing the best that we can be getting for his potential price tag soon and also we just got to wait for time to pass as well of course but with that being said Bryce Sensible hates me and it’s his contract year so he’s got to go oh this dude too how about you oh this guy too all right yeah screw it i’m going to trade Sensible Ball and Canyon Catchings to the Magic for Jason Johnson who was the 14th pick in this past draft as well as Jacob Coffee we haven’t got good offers for him so I’m just going to take a dude who well for one the 6 million contract could actually be useful to us if we make a trade and two could hold some future value so yeah screw it i’ll do it he was just going to leave us anyways i wasn’t resigning the guy and I did adjust the rotation a little bit just to optimize for maybe winning but it doesn’t look like we’re winning anyways so screw it um never mind we’re ending out the season with like a what was that like a 10-ame win streak for a little bit there and we might be able to avoid Ah it doesn’t look like it but yeah no never mind we weren’t going to be close to avoiding the playin but we did very comfortably clinch the plane as the eighth seed victor wins MVP bj Edgecom I guess who did not play in his rookie year wins the MVP I mean the rookie of the year in his second year james Harden six man of the year history repeats itself devin Carter most improved paulo clutch player jason kid coach of the year for the Spurs dyson Daniels makes the defensive second team cooper Flag who was already a 90 made the defensive first team and we did have AJ Debons on the rookie first team i never played Arenas this year never really got the chance to so our first matchup against Dallas in the playin we’re going to have Dyson Daniels on Kyrie and Ace Bailey on AD we’ll see how this goes we’ve been on a hot streak though lately and it might be continuing fully into this game it is a 114 not a 114 a 14point win 29 from Thomas 24 from Kesler who by the way weirdly the entire season shout out to the Hall of Fame box out beast just has been acting like he does not want to play with the team he’s enraged i moving on to a new team i don’t know i mean we might have to talk about this if he just keeps being mad for no reason cuz he plays a lot and we’re not that bad dyson Daniels who shot 13 threes uh yeah I guess he shot 534 threes this season i didn’t realize i don’t know what the hell that’s about but okay i mean just just a few years ago 24-25 which was yeah the year with the Hawks in real life 923 shots 238 threes why was he shooting like 70% of his shots from three this season i don’t know he’s still good so whatever ace Bailey was actually 1 for nine in this game and 1 for six from three but we still beat the hell out the Mavericks and took the win and we are officially the the seven seed playing the Rockets hey in real life a lot of teams acting like this team is food actually they have Josh Giddy now as well so they got Giddy Jaylen Green a men and and Senoon i feel like that makes their offense even more confusing game one we are going to keep it pretty close it looks like they might have it yeah they probably do yeah five-point win derek Queen led us with 18 points in 18 minutes shout out to Cody Williams by the way he’s gotten like virtually no shot this year i mean look at his stats 73-point shot he can dunk the ball i mean he could defend a decent amount but like eh I don’t know why I was checking the 36 per 36 stats cuz I wanted to see how much Queen average but uh it’s about it’s pretty damn good but yeah oh also here’s the end of the season stats cuz look at this cam Thomas went from he averaged a lot more after I switched up the minutes layout if we look before the All-Star break he was averaging 20 after the All-Star break he averaged 23 and he still shot about the same efficiency if not almost better from three he did at least so he ended up the season averaging 21 points bailey was at 17 Debbont to 15 and so on and so forth basically all I did was I cut down Kier’s minutes and Filipowski a little bit but not much anyways let’s continue this playoff thing i probably should actually edit the minutes even more but you know what look at this look at the the bench mob and the team whatever all of all of us 24 from Bailey in the win full team effort philipki even got up 13 shots and I don’t care as long as we win we were clamping up too giddy was three for 15 whitmore was 6 for 16 senon was 3 for 10 ruy was 1 for5 and Reed Shepard had a few shots off the bench for him next game is pretty close but we are actually fighting here near the end utah we are locked in for you five-point win bailey with 25 and yeah 25 and 10 we are up 2-1 in the series of the seven seed are we about to get another one is the Utah resurgence here the we believe Jazz damn near an eigh seed and eight seed in the actual conference standings about to have a run like the Nets did last year dyson with 22 points shoots mad threes like I said again he also had five steals and we are up 3-1 and this would be a super blunder if we find a way to lose this but it looks like we are in control of this series another win and your Jazz are going to the second round now sadly for this team they peaked at the second round a lot during the Donovan and Rudy Rudy era and even before that but I feel like they just never made it past the second round really in all those other eras or to the second round I should say but anyways Cam Thomas with 23 23 from Bailey you know what forget the history we’re also the first team to advance I guess just by date i don’t know most of these series but yeah most of them went to at least 32 we’re actually one of the only series that ended up yeah us in the uh Spurs series which they’re the number one seed and uh only one other upset which was the Lakers getting upset by OKC which is not really much of an upset crazy series by the way and second round we are playing the Timberwolves so obviously not changing anything it worked this well enough for us they lost Randall and they lost Goar at least maybe he’s off the bench behind Miles Turner they also Rob Dillingham starting now i actually had an opportunity to trade for Rob Dillingham who did I trade for instead i don’t remember maybe I’m thinking about a I think I was recording another video earlier that I scrapped and I saw that cuz I’m like who the hell would I have traded for Rob Dillingham anyways oh no no no I’m not tripping actually no no I’m lying it was uh the Colin Ston during the offseason i could have traded him for Rob Dillingham instead I trade him for Derek Queen so yeah anyways while I was talking we blew a 44 to 18 third quarter and the Timberwolves show their playoff experience the past few years and Anthony Edwards had 50 points all right let’s do one thing actually screw it if that’s going to happen I didn’t even switch this but screw it let’s just go ahead and put what’s his name on him dyson Daniels go ahead and guard him matter of fact hold on i’m going to do even more smother and deny the ball from this man get the ball out of his hands that’s it that’s all we have to do let’s see how it goes this game second game we are absolutely dominating so far but can can we hold on we will 119 edwards was 13 for 23 still an incredible game nobody else really just helped him out rob was 4 for 14 and Cam Thomas was 11 for 16 he definitely outplayed Ant a little bit in this game way less free throws and better efficiency and Bailey also at 26 so 1-1 we have a legit shot getting to the conference finals here cuz I do it looks like on paper we’re a better team than them they just have Edwards though and we are going to win game three thomas with 30 Bailey with 29 you know the thing with Thomas is like this is just a great team built around him for him to just go out there and be able to chuck shots and for it to work a lot of questions about if he can lead a team or anything like that but shoot you’re leading us well enough currently let’s just see if we can finish this off all right well we are down by six with about a minute to go so this is going to be a loss thomas 5 for8 not bad 7 for 16 from Deba 515 from Bailey looks like a rough outing from the two youngans so game five tied 2-2 and we are going to win it by eight points thomas with 28 Walker Kesler with 21 on 10 for 11 against the team that traded them by the way speaking of that do they still go Bear yeah there he is 22 minutes zero for zero shot attempts two rebounds two rebounds in 22 minutes is crazy miles Turner had a good game too though and one more game until the conference finals birth and we are so far dominating can we hold on to it maybe not look at the comeback oh my goodness all right let’s just jump in we have simcasted so many games that it’s time to actually watch a game 152 to go 114 114 i don’t even know what this offense is going to look like i will also acknowledge too just because for anybody that’s a 2K nerd I noticed and like slash remembered that like when we were kind of mid during that uh well just the whole season and then I I during that little uh after the trade deadline when we started going crazy that was directly after as Clark takes the three that is off that was directly after coffee who is this playing is that one of the dudes that we traded for why is he in i think we got a uh a foul out and they are just scrambling to play random people i hate when this game does this philipowski fouled out oh my goodness never mind forget a foul out ace Bailey AJ Dansa and Filipowski fouled out i kind of understand now i don’t know how much time it took but they all did 14 minutes for Philipski 20 minutes for Deba and 34 for Ace that is crazy though so we’re going to see none of our youngans but we still get to see Cam Thomas and between the legs to the rim he will get fouled going tough to the rim but yeah by the way that run that we had was directly after I changed the um the whatever it’s called like the system proficiency that I changed it to from pace and space which I forgot that Michael Staer had it on i I forgot to look at any of that stuff i changed it to balance and I also changed some of the coaching settings to the stuff that I normally use that I forgot to touch anyways we go up by two points so I just thought I’d mention that cuz that was kind of interesting to watch as Oh my goodness and look at Dyson Daniels with the steel thrown right to him matter of fact I think Ant might be out as well as Dyson goes coast to coast oh my i feel like you rarely see a coast to coast in general on 2K forget if it’s Dyson Daniels somehow McDaniels is guarded by Cam Thomas right now i don’t like this especially cuz it looks like they’re going to let McDaniels cook right now and Cam is way shorter than him mcdaniel’s going to go to the right i mean Dyson’s in the danger zone right now he could steal that ball but no he does not back out Rob and it’s going to get blocked by Dyson the Rob Dillingham ugly 2K jumper but honestly Dyson was in the proximity where he might have blocked any 2K shot right there he was just on it i haven’t seen a player a guard specifically jump that quickly on a shot like that pass into McDaniels guarded by Thomas he’ll have a clear lane to the rim and that is good can I change that who else do we have in right now uh I mean Dante yeah never mind we’re running Yeah we’re running Cam with the small forward that’s why this is happening right now cuz Yeah and oh my goodness cam pulls the three it is off it’s a quick shot and not the best one yeah cuz I like Dyson on Dillingham though i don’t want to change that per per se and oh there goes the foul but I might have to though because the size advantage is crazy i’m going to do that at least for those last two possessions and yeah Ant right ant’s not going to scare me and sub back in right i know he’s been out this entire time okay yeah Ants fouled out as well so this has been a physical game obviously i cannot wait for the playoffs oh my god few days left man i’m I’m not going to lie my Y’all going to see some NBA videos from me maybe like just some talking about stuff cuz this is the time where it’s time to lock in and what the hell is Cam T speaking of locking in what the hell is he doing passing to McDaniels mcdaniels goes to the right double cross back to the left not a bad match up right now with Collins and look at Keante on the defensive end oh my goodness george all the way he gets fouled and he’ll go to the line i’ll take it we could have had the last shot but they did have a nice fast break and they get some free throws and he misses the first free throw george what are you doing kee come on okay we got one we got one that is less than ideal though thankfully I did change that matchup so at the very least Dyson will be on McDaniels for this play but as Yeah McDaniels going to come up and get the ball it’s not Rob’s time yet I guess i don’t know it probably will oh my goodness dyson Daniels all the way dyson Daniels the inbound steel don’t let it lurk the Great Barrier Thief is in your area 11 seconds to go and we are down or we’re up by three points let me not that is one of the craziest steals I’ve seen in a while especially cuz it was a bounce pass in the pass in McDaniels and he is going to hit the three in Tyson’s eyes he said “Stop playing with me.” Oh my god he just wanted more adversity what a dog i really rock with Jay McDaniels there was a point I like try and stay tapped in with a little bit of like every I can’t watch every game i don’t try to watch every game or every team or whatever during the regular season I can fully admit I’m a clutch time watcher if I see games I got the noties on my phone i’mma see if a game is close and watch anyways I’ll talk about that in a second real quick though Cam Thomas the screen he’ll pull up going left and oh my goodness the brick of hell but wait John Collins the board and he missed it john Collins dunk it you dunking bastard that’s what you do just go up oh my goodness what an insane end of regulation though we’re going to have to watch more of this but I was going to say though I remember early in the season they I pretty sure Jay McDaniels was not playing that well and I was like damn I wanted him to lock back in like how he was in the playoffs last year and he has been locked in most of the ever since especially cuz uh Randall was out for a while though anyways let’s simcast a bit of this but I do want to watch some a good This has been very interesting uh you know what let’s Okay uh a little bit more yeah screw it here we go 155 to go utah up 32 and we’re down two points right now in the game they still got Jaylen Clark in the game guarding Thomas and Thomas he’s going to step back that’s a really good shot in the very close area and George guarding Dillingham right now um low key if I was No actually this is really the only way the lineup could go right now but oh my goodness pass back out Clark and Newell gets it newell back out and Dyson tried again the tendency is crazy he goes for every steal they must have turned that up to a million i didn’t look at none of that stuff if I just literally just look at shot tendencies cuz I know that affects the in-game stuff mo or not ingame the out of game oh my goodness here we go and Clark for the three that is all we’re tied we have a chance to take the lead with 121 to go we exhausted a lot of clock there they did specifically they didn’t get a shot off for a while and 12 seconds to go the screen cam Thomas over it cam is going to get all the way and he gets blocked by Turner i don’t know why he wouldn’t pull up there george someone grab the ball please we’re about to let Clark go coast to coast they just kept bumping him not getting in front of him thomas with the Gatorade symbol tired as hell i honestly I’d be forgetting I have fatigue on in these cuz they rarely ever get this tired and Thomas will get to the rim for the finish 51 seconds to go he’s got 16 points on 25% from the field what the hell but he is still going camp Thomas does not care passing to Turner to Deven Shenzo dante over to Clark where is McDaniels pass down to Turner again turner the layup that is off rebound 40 oh McDaniels had to have fouled out now i didn’t even realize and Dyson’s going to the rim back out Thomas for the three it is good three-point lead again for your Jazz no McDaniels to hit a crazy shot this time the foul outs are insane in every era in this game they just always But hey you do have a three-point You have a couple three-point snipers out here although Rob’s shot is slow as hell but um you got Dante so I don’t know who’s going to take this shot but I’d assume it’s who I just said kade Cunningham nine threes made in the playoff game team record thanks guys pass in to Dante 27 seconds to go dante to the right he gets stopped he goes to the rim the floater is off dante Dvenenzo tried his best but it looks like with the odds against them for both teams with all the foul outs and everything i mean Ant out granted they rely on Ant a lot more than we do our guys or whoever you want to mention the guys that fouled out so yeah I would have loved to see Dyson against Ant though uh yeah for sure but it looks like this will be it four-point lead with 20 seconds to go and that should be the game five now your Utah Jazz are moving on to the conference finals no player with Oh my god I just saw some Hey y’all see that no player with with 20 points but also Keonte George 16 points on 13 free throws and one made three that is insane what What a game in an odd way ant had 20 he fouled out in 28 minutes and they also had McDaniels foul out and Colin Murray Boils who we didn’t notice was gone cuz we just didn’t and that is a conference finals birth before any of the other teams you know what else I thought about too during that 2k still primarily got these nasty Jazz uniforms it is time for the first ever midplayoff rebrand i am rebanning us midplayoffs you could say it’s bad luck or something but nonetheless we are playing Victor so we it was bad luck that we’re here and playing them look at that so much better and that logo I don’t think that’s an actual logo but I know these are I just looked it I think these are like their actual jerseys they’re going to be using soon or I I don’t know really but anyways they are nice though they are nice a lot better at least well we are playing Victor Wimanyama in the Spurs and the Castle’s a 92 now hey this just looks better they got Vel off the bench they still have Fox he’s just oddly not at point guard cuz 2K made him a two to play next to Chris Paul i’m not going to change it though because they’re in the conference finals so I don’t want to like I don’t know mess up something if it’s working for him all right well let’s see what happens game one oh my goodness did the rebrand give us some sort of energy i don’t know maybe not enough though uh damn it said Kesler just missed a close shot they have the ball never mind we just got the ball back with 49 seconds to go after Malachi Brandham missed a shot at least that’s what it said so let’s see if they were lying they were not and this is our first time seeing our rookies they are both in right now and oh my goodness why do they always do that no victor down the lane and we foul him and he gets to the bucket why do we always do that what was that pass do we have any semblance of a chance i doubt it oh let’s see what we got cam Thomas guarded by guarded by Castle he’ll go to the rim right at Victor and pump fake and put the shot up over Victor for the bucket 34 seconds to go will we foul this early on they will i mean I I would imagine Castle’s free throws probably 99 cuz he went up by like 10 overalls yeah you know I think I could just get out of here i think I could just stop wasting my time we’re not winning this game 35 and 19 from Victor 10 and 19 from Vel or 10 of 19 and Castle only had seven guarded by Dyson but hey we were in it though put that in the banners we were in a game against Victor feel like we should be in a different league with this dude but uh yeah and hey shout out to this dude Fick he he is cooking that’s who they’re starting over Fox right now and it looks like it shoot maybe is the right decision i don’t know oh my goodness another game and yeah they are dogging us victor fouled out and still had 26 and 10 i was going to say this might be the time to just fully uh quadruple down on the exact players but yeah we’re down 3 0 it’s probably over yep we are going to get swept by the Spurs 24 from Malachi 26 from Ace Bailey 25 from Thomas it was a good attempt for sure for sure and you know what it gives me a lot more confidence in like making whatever moves for the team because we could see who truly just helped the hell out of us making a deep playoff run look at Ace Bailey with the 20 points per game in the playoffs 22 from Thomas ace got eight boards a game as well at playing the power forward dyson was averaging 14 as well as almost three steals six assists six boards and good god Isaiah Kier 28% from the field i just removed him on the last game but like aside from that he’s been playing this entire time 28% is insane somehow John Collins is also a negative as well and Philipski also shot 39% from the field so you know we we know who led us here and then we know who’s you know supplementary pieces complimentary pieces or whatever who’s possibly expendable for the right price the right price being franchise changing assets but uh yeah you know we lost to the champions so we’ll have to live with it harrison Barnes retired so we did have a handful of firsts this year and one of them is the projected fifth overall pick from Atlanta that we got back for Taylor Hendris that we traded with Marketing to the Thunder so that was a much worthy trade and the Thunder already got two lottery picks and we’re three picks in so yeah probably didn’t deserve that pick either i haven’t been looking to see who moved up or not so oh wait we just got pick seven just saw it it’s right there i’ll live with it screw it and the Sixers get pick one we also have the 17th 18th 23rd and 24th selections in the draft here’s a look at the draft board i mean we could use the pick or we could trade the pick and get back a star this would be one of the moments in the video where I’d maybe turn the trade difficulty down if I’m trying to get a star and it being too annoying but and this would actually for the this is the perfect time too because getting to the conference finals with this team okay so I you know I’ll be transparent not not like it’s obviously that’s kind of the point but Tyrese Maxi was the guy good god they have Pu Shvky starting the center and I was going to mention that why that’s happening right now um Tyrese Maxi is who I was looking at so what I did was I went to the league’s advanced stats and was looking at the most valuable players in the league and while Maxi was bringing in a lot of wins to the Sixers despite them having only 18 wins they also traded Embiid for Zack Lavine and they also included a second round pick with Embiid to make this happen so Maxi’s kind of just in hell right now and yeah um I don’t know how Pokeu has found a spot a back in the league B starting at center so they’re the worst team in the league by far and actually that’s this is the first time that the first pick has actually stood with the first team i think well actually what do I mean i think we were the we were the first one both of the past two years and we dropped down to two and five but uh the second one worked out though maxi is an option but now I kind of don’t want to mess up the Dyson and Cam Thomas backcourt because it works so well but we might have to though if we’re trying to make it to the promised land you know when we saw Victor we kind of just bowed down okay so I actually honestly to be honest with you I did this on 100% difficulty didn’t even lower it we have traded Keonte George Jason Johnson a 2027 first round pick from the Heat i think this was pick 18 and Noah Asen for Tyrese Maxi so the reason why I did this as Maxi has joined the team as our best overall player he gives us the ability to do whatever we want with the guards obviously these two are well of course he’s going to start next to Dyson but Cam is guaranteed minutes galore if anything shoot Maxi can come off the bench i really don’t i was just trying to get better period and better we got i mean shoot you saw what they just did in San Antonio they had Darren Fos come out the bench unintentionally though now honestly the conclusion I kind of came to was that maybe we’d be best moving on from Walker Kesler since he seems to hate me but when I looked at like some of the best Well if you take a gander here at the top three centers they’re all free agents now I had a thought in my head that low key I could either let the Knicks resign CD or let Cat go somewhere i was thinking about Cat could be the option cuz I was looking at the advanced stats and he brought 18 wins to the Knicks last season he averaged 25 and 13 he’s still that guy he had a low-key career year honestly and I was thinking that would really like I know Cat’s not a defensive player but with just how talented our team is starting to get especially with the rookies developing the young dudes overall and having Dyson out there I think we could be okay but honestly I just made that trade with Keante because like that doesn’t really hinder our assets whatsoever we still have the seventh pick you know you get it but I mean I know I know Cam had an incredible playoffs but this man Maxi just averaged 28 points per game on 50 40 86 free throw shooting regardless of how we cut the rotation we got a lot going on for us right now sixers take Tyron Stokes number one this is another reason that made it even more prevalent to just I mean get Maxi out of there i know I didn’t give him a pick but yeah grizzlies are going to trade pick five for Joel Embiid you know it’s funny i did think about trading for him honestly and they will get Taja Kings that is and we have pick seven trade offers they’re probably all garbage cuz I’m also on insanely high difficulty screw it we’ll draft the top ranked Dylan Mingo for some reason it still says he has Hall of Fame ceiling but yeah I kind of just went through and lowered all their potentials as a whole i didn’t go to every single player and changed their highest and low i don’t know man i just didn’t want to have an autogenerator in here either though but I might go back and look at it further eventually hartinstein for the eighth pick and Draymond okay damn magic magic going back to back trading for picks and they have the 11th pick watch they’re going to trade this one no never mind they really are locked in all right well the 17th pick my guy still out here yep skirt i’m taking Cayenne Anthony you know what the Cavs offered me two first round picks for this 23rd pick i’ll take it i don’t want the pick really anyways and nobody offered for this next one so I guess I’ll take the highest ranked Jordan Smith Jr screw it they want me to decline Cody Williams which once again says a lot but I’m not going to just yet uh honestly I’ll decline this dude coffee though uh shout out to him for getting that one playoff minute that one time but I don’t even feel like flipping you for anything like in terms of draft lottery picks whatever i don’t care well one thing we did fully take ourselves out of was something like a Giannis sweep stake we are 100 million over the cap i know Utah is not making enough money to pay for this but I don’t care yeah as you can see I mean we already had Dyson making 32 mil and a lot of our rookies make a ton of money because they were picked super high like Ace makes 15 and Debons makes 17 so it was never going to happen regardless we have we would have to clear house but it would have been a great great agency to do so all these damn bigs out here and you know I might have to interest the Knicks on a sign and trade for Cat and for this one I lowkey would turn the trade difficulty down i just it’s just something I have my eye on and you know what we have 15 players on the roster but I’m going to use my MLE that I don’t need to use to offer a little bit of money to Yaka Purle oh wait never mind wait hold on let’s see okay I could do that screw it i’m doing it for Isaiah Stewart cuz Yaka Ple didn’t want to come to this team but point being I want to trade a center for Cat or Joic you know either one works for me i’m not picky now I just wanted to make you aware of how much I I can offer for Jokic that has been declined on 50% trade difficulty just the amount of players is I mean it’s it yeah it makes sense but it’s just funny to look at cuz I offer this and they decline it oh my god oh my Okay i did not think they were going to accept it i did not think they were going to accept it i was kind of just messing around we just gave up Walker Kesler John Collins Cody Williams Dylan Mingo Elijah Arenas and Isaiah Stewart and we have received with no pick compensation but granted six players nola Joic is for by the way two players who were in our rotation last year in the Eastern Conf or the Western Conference Finals elijah Arenas that one hurt to give up but I what happened was I had those first five players in there and I totally forgot I didn’t have Stewart in the deal and then I readded him because I was reworking it around I was reworking it around Collins and uh I I I remembered that Collins wasn’t really that good in the playoffs so I was like “Oh let me just add him and see if it would work instead of deferring to Cat this quickly.” So I reworked it around Collins and and what’s his name i forgot dude’s name but yeah anyways I also didn’t want to trade Arenus before he hit his first ever progression period but whatever man we got new young players around anyways we Well I just traded uh Mingo who was the seventh pick but we got Jordan Smith and Cayenne Anthony we also have 1 two three we have just 11 players on the roster now we just did a six for one but I mean we still have about two players at every position that we actually like i did i would have liked I wanted arenas to get Minnesota this season that’s the only one that hurts but yeah once again that was on 50% trade i’m turning it back up now y’all know I always have to do the star trades on that cuz they are impossible on 100 but yeah that that was insane um we might need some new You know what all right we’re going to get Oh damn cam Johnson wait he didn’t accept another offer they just told me he did somehow I just got Cam Johnson on a minimum but he is 31 we’re also going to get Derek Jones and Cory Kiss left me in the dust play and now we officially have a full 10-man rotation uh I still want to trade Kier he pissed me off he played super trash for our last player at least I think our last player I’m going to sign Jackson Hayes to a two-year deal because I always have kind of envisioned Derek Queen as being a a power forward anyways but yeah once again though I want to give a true salute walker Kesler good job man even though you hated me john Collins salute you were great for your value but we had to do what had to be done four dudes who basically never touched the court for us and you you two oh Cam Thomas is ready to resign he has earned every penny of this deal that I’m about to steal from him on Kier at the very least he doesn’t want too much money i’m not going to do this yet though i am going to entertain his trades first actually I’m going to go to the uh progression period cuz I want to see if his overall goes up more and then I could trade him for more all right well Dyson’s up to a 90 jokic is still Tyrese debons is an 86 ace Bailey is actually at least for the time being stopped at an 86 overall cam is still doing his his job or whatever the other Cam Johnson is at least good enough to play in the rotation if we need him to but we honestly could just run a fiveman but I don’t like that see that’s what Okay so Kier’s overall didn’t go up much i would like to trade him for another point and a forward maybe coupled with somebody else i also signed Yaboole yeah I just did one of the dumbest trades ever with the Thunder it just looks dumb it’s actually just me finessing them a bit we traded Isaiah Kier Cam Johnson Derek Jones Isaac Aoro who I signed just for the purpose of this trade i went to the the trade finder and looked up free agents just to sign him we we traded basically every single player we signed in Isaiah Kalier to get back Kaman Maluat who is the seventh overall pick right before damn near a few picks before Derek Queen also a defensive center to put next to him we’re going to be big off the bench cuz we still have Philipki i might trade him too though i wasn’t really too happy about his play last season either and we also get Igor Demir i’m pretty sure his name’s supposed to be I I’m not going to say pretty sure i literally looked it up his name is supposed to be Igor Dean hopefully that’s Yeah I don’t know it doesn’t contain vulgar language so I’m not not sure why it’s not programmed like that but he’s damn near just a big point guard and he also went to BYU so had to bring him back to Utah i didn’t really want to make a trade with the Thunder but I kind of just screwed him over so uh I’m always happy to do it hey shout out to Kyle Filipowski and yes I did sign Tyler Kle just for this purpose again we are trading him Tyler Koh and our first round pick for the Cavs for Jaylen Tyson and a first round pick tyson averaged 12 and six and three last year on 48 from the field and 43 from three he shoots 91 from the three or whatever he has a 91 three-pointer and pretty decent defense as well so that’ll be our backup small forward or whatever and yep see you Philipowski so we have absolutely overturned the hell out of this team and let’s see what happens they’re definitely about to ask me to fill out the roster and I’m going to click sign whoever you want i don’t even care at this point or not maybe we had enough players i don’t know or maybe I just Yeah I guess we had enough anyways maybe they they might hit us with like a restriction thing in a few weeks so let me go look i forgot that for now anyways yeah this looks pretty good to me let me let me look a little bit through really just going to give Joic 37 minutes 30 to everybody else in the starting five and then after that Cam Thomas 28 off the bench derek Queen getting 20 cuz you know he’s been around for a while so he gets seniority over everybody else and then Jaylen Tyson Maluak and Igor Dean at 13,12 and 10 minutes after that obviously no one else this is a nice part about this is that we don’t have anybody else that really should be playing right now so and I low-key forgot about this all throughout the off season of insan I mean the the yeah the offseason of insanity that we really weren’t that good conference-wise this past year but now we definitely should be we are 26 and4 currently maxis leading the team in scoring with Joic at second averaging 18 11 and 9 also didn’t have to move far to get here at least it’s probably pretty far since it’s like middle America and everything’s 17 hours away from each other I don’t know I could be wrong though never been over there seems like everyone’s contributing a lot to the team if anything dyson’s only at.7 wins added but we know how he rolls it doesn’t really matter he’s playing his defense bringing what he needs to bring we’re the third best offense and the first by far oh my goodness best defense by six points over the the 76ers what the hell the Sixers are the second best team i mean Keonte George averaging 18 and seven good for him i mean that’s what you would about to expect though in this many minutes but Tyron Stokes being there marketing I guess with a full season caleb hey man they signed Tar Een they somehow ended up with Cam Johnson respect i I can’t even that’s crazy maybe it’s a full season without Joel Embiid that’s helping him too i don’t know but we can’t be envious cuz we are 30 and4 we are 46 and five at the deadline oh Tyrese Maxi’s ready to extend his contract yeah take the city and here’s the stats everything is going perfectly jokic is second in MVP race shout out to Dylan Harper shout out to Philipki he’s fourth in the six man of the year race and expectedly Keonte George is in the MIP race shout out to him as well and Philipki damn you know we just too nice over here so you know y’all got to kind of go up somewhere else to really thrive victor wins MVP this dude wins rookie of the year tyler Herro six man of the year reed Shepard most improved anthony Edwards clutch player and Michael Staer 71-1 we probably did more than enough to uh be the favorites joic makes the second team that’s how you know this team is good when Joic doesn’t even have to make the first team he’s just kind of chilling dyson and Joic make the defensive second team noticed that in that Nuggets video recently that Joic always makes the defensive teams never really noticed it first round against the Pelicans shout out to Naji Marshall he went back we are going to win in four games second round against the Timberwolves playing them again great team they also have Kyrie now fun team to play last year we’re going to win in four and the conference finals against the San Antonio Spurs now obviously Jokic is guarding Victor um that is hellish but hopefully everything else you know evens itself out we’re going to simcast this one from the jump cuz this can be insane and we’re going to win game one by 15 points cam Thomas with 34 off the bench on 14 free throws as well and uh 2711 and 10 from Jokic who would have thought Utah who would have thought not me game two we are going to win by 12 points 25 from Thomas 21 from Queen all right next game I think yeah we’re at the line 55 seconds to go we hit both wanted to see the a little bit of this matchup and well it actually looks like Joic is No he’s in the game he’s guarding the four and Kaman Maluok I think that is or either him no it’s Queen yeah that’s Queen it’s not tall enough and pull to the rim he pump fakes it i honestly thought it was going to be Kaman just because Queen is listed as a uh maybe Victor’s at the four that’s what it is okay anyways Vel the screen he’s going to get to his pull up probably he’s going to pull it up that is off rebound by Daniels daniels trying to run really quickly up the other way he’s going to spin and fade away for a three dyson Daniels crackhead i don’t know but it was kind of interesting though there goes that three-point tendency from him shout out to Jordan Pool starting at point guard for the Spurs pass into Pool we’ll foul him let’s see if he makes both hits the first and hits the second maxi the screen he’ll I don’t really know what we’re doing right now there you go Bailey he’s going to go to a go-to shot and a deep midi never mind he passed it over that three is good from way downtown by that’s Deba he had the KD jump shot on too and are they going to get the ball in they will the pool they’ll foul Victor though we actually still have a bit of a shot 5 seconds to go but no timeouts will it be a fullcourt shot will they get the ball up quick enough wait it’s a free throw miss joic will he pass the ball up any time now no he’s going to pull the halfcourt shot and it was close spurs will take a game this this imbecile greatest one of the greatest passers of all time can’t pass the damn ball four for 13 pretty defensive game considering how good both these teams are at offense granted they’re also good at defense too we just hit a shot and they have the ball with 33 seconds to go up by one i’m going to jump in for this one as well as they could tie it up two two or we can get the stop here and maybe get a bucket and you know what I’m saying let’s see maxi’s not going to foul jokic is on Victor right now and obviously we can’t put none of our fours on him cuz well yeah anyways um Pool’s going to pull up the fall away midi and that is good our last timeout is used bailey’s going to pass the ball in it’ll be to Dyson dyson to Maxi loki had a lot of room there for half a second pass back to Maxi maxi will get to the rim and gets stolen by Pool what a blunder of an end game here and we lose by five all right well just like that it’s a two- two series and we are beating the absolute hell out of them in this next one it is going to end up being a 17-point win in the end they outscored us in the fourth daniels with 24 jokic with a 22-point triple double and one more game to go for a finals birth can we do it we are going to do it your Utah Jazz are going to the finals we We did just beat the defending champions 30 from Maxi 27 and 10 boards from Dyson hey I’m very happy to have stuck it out with him cuz he’s also stepped it up and it feels like both playoffs so far for sure playing about the exact same amount of minutes too so it’s not Damn he shoots 55 from the free throw line what the hell anyways Joic wins the conference MVP unsurprisingly and Dylan Harper wins it in the East so we are going to play another player drafted in that one faithful year and what the hell Julius Randle and Mitchell Robinson back together again benedict Matan Tyrese Proctor and Dylan Harper they’ve also got another former Nick Bobby Portoris off the bench and uh Austin Reeves who always falls off a lot too early in 2K i doubt this would be the case in real life he’d have to get some sort of crazy injury but injuries are off so also I will say just the overall progression of the league has been way more realistic and just overall better with these draft classes for sure i rock with these these early ones cuz we’re literally playing against a team led by one of the young rookies but he’s not like a 95 and even if he was we can’t have the entire class being a 95 but with that being said we only up by three in this in this game i don’t know who has the ball nothing has happened in a while um they just got the board screw it let’s just see uh they didn’t do nothing poris three-point shot missed damn they actually did take the three as well debonsto with 25 points in the win in game one game two another win by 14 points just an overall outing from everybody game three another one just another one and game four this always happens where I give like the calming introduction like end game like that you know and then we lose probably right yeah we lost by six had to get one it’s only right maybe they get two who knows nope your Utah Jazz are the 2028 NBA oh look this is the first time we’re seeing the court I think let me get that hey Yic pull up wait who else we got out here matter of fact give my guy Queen queen pull up oh yeah oh my goodness oh look at that debonsa corner three with the Durant shot he bricked it damn i have timing off so you can’t blame it on me and uh pull up that’s off just run it run it up queen one more to Basta from way downtown for the three it’s off and we have won the NBA championship 2028 i guess what two full years of re Well no three three cuz we uh I didn’t really get I mean I I guess what three off seasons three actual seasons yeah sorry Mitchell Robinson you didn’t deserve to win in the Nets jersey anyways what was that oh that’s Cayenne sitting at the end of the bench in a damn suit that’s funny cam Thomas you deserve to hoist cam Thomas you low-key single-handedly gave us the hope to be able to do this this quickly i got to respect that not single-handedly but you know what I mean he was leading the entire scoring surge for this team him and uh Ace Bailey reveling in this win right now damn they didn’t show who won the finals that’s I mean we know who it is maxi with 20 Bailey with 19 six and three matter of fact damn Thomas was two for 12 in this game you know what though rest easy who cares you did well enough nicole Joic just 15 11 and 10 a game to win the finals MVP that’s all we needed playoff stats maxi with 20 a game camp Thomas with 18 debonsto with 18 6 and five and it’s funny too cuz it really is role oriented cuz Maxi and Thomas really don’t do anything else except for maybe a few steals from Maxi but they don’t pass the ball they don’t really rebound the ball they just go out there and we say shoot the damn rock and Thomas is the six-man as well jokic with the 17 11 and 10 bailey with the 15 and six 14 six and five from Daniels 115 and three from Queen and Jaylen Tyson with the seven maluok with six and Igor Demean with five off the bench so that is your Utah Jazz Championship i’m gonna end it off there i’m satisfied it’s And I’ve also been I don’t know how I managed recording these for 4 hours every single time but it’s 8:00 a.m so uh y’all see it it’s been real it’s been fun but real fun shout out to Shelvin Mac subscribe to the channel if you feel like it like
