here to help us focus in focus is the key word.
-
I see you laughing.
-
It didn't go to the thesaurus this year.
-
We just went focused, Which is fine.
-
Was great night tonight as usual.
-
But if were to try to sum up what the league wide goal of the evening was on a night where you said they would challenge the number of trades.
-
And they did what was sort of the overall lead wide thinking.
-
Well, I think you saw Ah ah, pattern of teams you know who want to be big players in free agency start to set themselves up for that.
-
You know, Boston now potentially has $26 million in cap space.
-
Brooklyn and the Clippers are in position to have to max contracts.
-
You know, the Lakers went out and bought a pick.
-
Ah, and you know they're starting to fill out their roster, but ah, this draft, in a lot of ways, is very much a prelude.
-
So what's coming in July?
-
And I thought that both New Orleans in Atlanta really helped themselves.
-
Atlanta's done a terrific job in these last two drafts, which I'm begging you as a friend just turn your phone off Goto bed just for only six hours.
-
Give yourself a six hour window and then wake up and fight again Another day.
-
All right, I'm gonna go have a bear or that or that.
-
Like obviously, given the fact that they also traded for Bruno, Fernando means Atlanta's my favorite team because of all the Terps they've got.
-
What do you make of the moves that Atlanta has made?
-
I absolutely love what they did today.
-
Moving up to number four to get DeAndre Hunter.
-
That's the main piece they needed.
-
A guy who can defend multiple positions, who doesn't need the ball, who can space for the floor.
-
And that's what DeAndre Hunter is is the best defender in the draft and then getting a camera reddish at number 10.
-
This is a guy who has a top five talent, needs to be in a situation where he can play off others, not high pressure, just get up and down, shoot transition threes and develop the rest of his game.
-
Perfect situation for him, love with the Hawks are doomed.
-
I also get the sense that a lot of people like what Cleveland did and I don't care about a lot of people As much as I care about your opinion.
-
I just mentioned that whole they've got Tell me about the Cavaliers and what they managed to accomplish tonight.
-
Absolutely love it.
-
I think they're building kind of the Portland Trail Blazers of the East.
-
They got the number four prospect in the draft at number five in Darius Garland, and I would just pair him with Collin Sexton and say, We're gonna play two guards.
-
This is what John Beilein does.
-
It's what he's always done.
-
Can you do that trouble?
-
I'm sorry to interrupt those those guys air smallish.
-
I mean, can you go with those two guys in today's MBA?
-
Your two guards?
-
I think you can.
-
You know they're not that much smaller than Dame or C.
-
J.
-
Sure they need to prove as playmakers.
-
There's no doubt about that.
-
But I mean, with with garlands ability to shoot it with range, I think you can play on it.
-
I think you can play off it and then just continuing to add big wings around them like a Dylan Wendler six foot eight better defender than he gets credit for Spaces the floor and then taking a swing on Kevin Porter at 30.
-
I think it's worth the risk there.
-
Bull Bull is a guy that you called his polarizing A prospect, as there was in the draft, actually felt badly for the young man.
-
He just has to leave the table and then comes back.
-
Just looks miserable by the time he's finally selected.
-
Howdy, fall this bar.
-
I think it's a combination of the medical and the intel you know in today's game, you can't hide from anything if you have any weaknesses in terms of your work ethic.
-
In terms of your habits, teams know they know what you're tweeting.
-
They know what's on your social media.
-
And, you know, I think some of that stuff hurt him in terms of, you know, the injury stuff and then the intel as well.
-
But like we said all along, I mean, he is a big time talent, and I hope you know, this is a bit of a wake up call for him and allows him to kind of lock in and focus on being the best basketball player he can.
