All right, welcome on to our East offseason grades. We definitely have missed you all. We were at a higher tempo there for a second

So a little bit of a break over the last week

But we'll be at two days a week for the rest of the offseason up until

October so let's get started with the East offseason grades Danny and just switch up make sure that we don't forget about the

Bottom of the alphabet. I for one and champion at the bit to discuss the Washington wizard. Oh baby

Uh, I would describe it that the wizards had three big elements of their 2022 offseason in I would say in order of importance

Number one is retaining Bradley Beale and the terms there are essential five years at the 35% max with a fourth a fifth year player option

And underline bold italicize a no trade cause for Bradley Beale. We'll talk about why that's important

So that's one in number two. I would argue is drafting Johnny Davis number 10 out of Wisconsin

And then number three is the trade they did with Denver where they sent

Contabius called the little pope anishmith and received and returned Montae Morris and Wilbert

So the way I would characterize

So much of what the wizards have done honestly over the last maybe three years is the execution of the strategy the tactics used

were actually pretty good but the strategy is terrible. It's the the invading army art

We did an amazing job. We beautiful combined arms

We took over this bridge with no casualties. Oh, but the bridge leads to absolutely nowhere

So that's and I mean you can certainly cripple with some of the strategy involved here

Maybe the taking of Davis at number 10 in particular there as you know

I guess the part of the thinking was that he used to more of a ready player or whatever

But just the overall overarching strategy as it has been essentially

God, I mean how long do you have to go back?

Certainly in the tetheriancis era
