All right, let's move on here. We got the trade deadline in two days. As a reminder, we'll be live leading up to the trade deadline, through the trade deadline reacting to all the trades, all the trades that maybe the nuggets do or don't make. We'll see. But we did get a bunch of trades today, and I just kind of wanted to go through them and get your guys' thoughts. This first one was a shocker. The Jazz get

0:22.3

Jaron Jackson Jr. for a bunch of players in three future first round picks. Here's

0:30.5

another classic trade that nobody has ever talked about. This is every trade. No reporting on

0:35.1

whatsoever and it just happens. Every trade is this trade. It's like you spent all this time, they're like, you know what I'm hearing? It's like, I don't care what you're hearing. It never happens. It doesn't matter. It's always this. Jaron Jackson for Anthony Simons or I don't even remember who's for what. That's a different trade. That we hadn't heard anything about. Yeah. No, yeah. I think all off season we were like, I think I can see the movie Nikola Vucevich for Anthony Simons. It's the one. So dumb. Yeah. I mean, for me, I think more of the people, some people are intrigued by Utah's Yon Khor. Fine, maybe. To me, it's more of the Grizzlies finally rebuilding because they've been this. They give up, yeah. They've been this kind of like middle ground basketball limbo team for three years now where you like, you want to factor them into the Western Conference, but you know they're not really going to win. Where do they fall? Now they're're really i think they have as many first round

1:28.1

picks over the next few years as anyone that's not the thunder or yeah yeah they do that's how you

1:32.4

have to do it like when you clearly are not going to compete you have to just be like and just

1:37.7

you know do something painful get rid of guys that are like j j j jay were and Bain were like the good enough core to get you like

1:47.8

the four seed. Right. Yeah. That's like it was like when Portland it was like you knew they couldn't

1:52.3

quite do it, but they were still good. But they were like, you just punt on that. You know that

1:56.0

warrior is punt. Like trade stuff, please. One of the biggest lies that we heard was John Morant saying that they were good out West.

2:05.8

Like he said that and it is just with the opposite of what he said.

2:11.7

They have not been good out West.

2:14.2

Since that everything is went to shit since that moment. They're not good at West. They not good. They were not. We could say it definitively. They were not going out of this. And I think a lot of people did a fact check there and they didn't believe it. But it's pretty bad. Can we see what Grock thinks? Also, this was a very awkward trait. Like, it just didn't make a lot of sense. I want to know what the Jazz are going to do right now because with, you know, Triple J, he's playing right now, right? Yeah, yeah, he's healthy. Yeah, like, they have to continue to lose games. Right. This was like a good year for them to lose a lot of games. You want to lose games. There's any year to tank. This is the year. This is the year for them. I just felt like it was in the cards for them to get a top two pick. Like it just seems like the bans is supposed to go there. But now they're going to win a couple of, they're not a bad team. No, they're not a bad team. He'll probably get hurt lifting his luggage onto the plane. He asked to, they're going to have to sit somebody's bicep. Because on paper, this is like a... He broke his ankle right before the AFC championship game. And they need those picks right now. So yeah, this is... It was confusing of what they did there, but they got better and the Grizzlies waved the white flag yeah another team that is really

3:26.4

mixing it up the bulls traded nikola vuchovitch to the celtics for anphony simmons bulls are up to

3:32.8

something i don't know if they even know what they're up i don't either but they're up to something

3:36.9

i don't yeah i kind of feels like they have no bigs anymore. I mean, maybe they could reignite their, uh, non-interest in Ziegnazhi. I don't know, maybe, but it's, it seems like kind of like when you are presented with a new kind of puzzle and you don't know what you're, you just kind of moving stuff around. You're like, Rubik's Cube. You're like, just, what if I get this over here, over here. I don't know if they have a final plan either, but they're playing the game, that's for sure. Yeah. And they also acquired Jade Nivey and Mike Conley, who could be a bio candidate. They are openly, openly tanking. They are very okay with it. I mean, Boston, they definitely got better.

4:16.0

They got a healthy porzingis, like a fully healthy prozingus right there.

4:22.0

But I mean, I don't understand.

4:25.0

I mean, I understand it.

4:26.0

Sorry, I understand it in a sense of like one team just wants to keep getting picks and whatnot.

4:31.7

But also the Bulls are just, they're not good right now.

4:34.3

And they're still falling in the direction of, hey, we have to get more picks.
