The volume. All right, man, We're happy this happened while 0:00:07.360 --> 0:00:08.640 we were still in the studio and we ain't have 0:00:08.680 --> 0:00:10.800 to come back at night. Breaking, breaking, breaking news, man, 0:00:10.840 --> 0:00:14.200 it is reported shot the Sham's Chris Middleton is now 0:00:14.800 --> 0:00:15.840 a Washington Wizard. 0:00:15.880 --> 0:00:17.439 He has been traded down there with A J. 0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:20.360 Johnson and the pick swap for Kyle Kuzma, Patrick Baldwin 0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:22.959 Junior and second round pick compensation. We just talked about 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:24.400 this in the morning show, about this being a strong 0:00:24.440 --> 0:00:27.280 possibility t and this reaction. How you feel about this trade, man, 0:00:27.400 --> 0:00:29.120 money swap or do you think the Buck's trying to 0:00:29.160 --> 0:00:29.760 do something else with this. 0:00:29.840 --> 0:00:33.680 It's a money swap. They're gonna keep cools. But I 0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:35.680 mean Chris Miderson about to be on his way again. 0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:38.760 I'm sure. I mean it's the last day. I'm sure 0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:40.240 he's not gonna stay in Washington. 0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:42.519 Yeah, that would be terrible. 0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:44.320 Either. Gonna play the rest of this year out and 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:47.040 get healthy and didn't get traded in the summer, But 0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:49.440 I can't see Chris staying in Washington. 0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.040 Do you think that they could trade Chris somewhere else 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:55.040 and get the first round pick possibly for us Hell? No, okay, no, 0:00:55.120 --> 0:00:57.200 first round pick because we got two more years on 0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:57.480 this deal. 0:00:57.680 --> 0:00:59.520 Yeah, but he definitely can get a trade though, but 0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:01.920 he can help somebody. He can go to a contended 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:04.360 team and definitely helped. But his money is a little. 0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:08.679 If most definitely what Chris like twenty two No no, no, no, no, 0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:17.920 over the thirties forties down there, Okay, thirty yeah, yeah, 0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:20.360 I think anybody picked up Chris Middleton, don't now though, 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:23.360 the needs two way player like that. 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:26.240 But I just don't know if at thirty million, Yeah, 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:28.000 he might be sitting in Washington for the rest of 0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:28.360 the year. 0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:31.640 You want to take a chance on Chris Midlson. 0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:33.560 Yeah, I love Chris. I think he's a closer. I 0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:35.000 think he can play. I think he still got a 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:37.760 lot left in the tank. If you was like, uh, 0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:40.240 I mean you know, I know, man, I wasn't saying it, batt. 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:43.200 I was just saying like if he was like a Memphis, Houston, 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:48.200 a Denver, a Golden State of Jimmy and them don't 0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:54.400 work out, Like, uh, it's the money that's the biggest money, 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.400 thirty million. I mean it ain't the most and ain't crazy, 0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:01.640 ain't the max deal, but well, player like that though, 0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:04.640 you ain't willing to take the risk. Depends who I am. 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:10.359 From Golden State. No, nah, he got too many injuries. 0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:13.480 They're not sure about the ankles man. Yeah, yeah, my 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:15.519 ankles ain't adding up right now for some reason. Because 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:18.200 he's a Milwaukee legend. People love him in Milwaukee. He's 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.400 been there for a long time. For them to get 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.720 rid of him, it's got to be something more with 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:24.000 the ankles, like you. 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:26.720 Said, when he's on the court, he's a problem. Like 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:29.080 you talked about his injuries last year. He killed the 0:02:29.080 --> 0:02:31.520 Pacers last year in the playoffs. Like he's still very, 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:33.800 very capable. Like you said, the injury health the situation 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.240 plays a part. But for the Bucks in the situation, 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:38.120 Kyle Kuzma, you know what I'm saying. He knows how 0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:41.280 to play with Superstar. How can he help this team out? 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.360 He got to I don't give a fuck mentality, like 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:46.760 he's gonna go out and do him so he gonna compete, 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:49.000 and he a competitor.

A little a little wild, you know, a 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:57.880 little crazy, little yeah, but he is a competitor, so 0:02:57.919 --> 0:02:59.919 he's gonna compete and he won a championship before. 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.880 So he don't play hard. Yeah, he's definite gonna play hard. 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:07.960 Yeah he can. 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.760 Pauls he got as well. That team is six ' nine. 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:13.760 He can make a shot, he can guard, he can guard. 0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:16.160 He ain't the best defender, but he will compete. 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.079 Yeah, I definitely like him, like him. 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.360 For them, and he's gonna play a lot better than 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:23.080 he played. Was playing with the Wizards with the Buck 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:24.119 and he don't give a fuck. 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.480 I'm telling you like that Yann and ship like hes 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:28.560 gonna respect Janni's but he ain't gonna give a fuck. 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:29.560 Played with Brin. 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:32.359 Yeah, if he opened, he gonna shoot that.

He 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:09.680 get post uff sometimes when Giannis is out. 0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:13.839 Also, the Bucks have Pat Hounson and potentially by Reporters 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:15.240 on the trade block as well. Do you see either 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.440 one of those players get moved? Well, what are they 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:21.360 even looking for? M I have no clue what they're 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:25.120 looking for. Maybe a backup guard, yeah, backup scoring guard. 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.400 M yeah, did he get Patrick barb junior training on 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:29.720 how high they are on him? 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:29.840 On? 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:34.679 Yeah? Like on another storer Like I know Kim Thomas 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:35.040 been hurt. 0:05:35.080 --> 0:05:36.920 But they need like an explosive score off the bench, 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:39.360 somebody that can get you thirty juring Clarks Jordan Clark's 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:41.840 and somebody that can just come in and go crazy 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:43.159 get buckets for sure. 0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:44.880 Now we always say doctor is a six man whisper. 0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:46.760 You think he can help Cools kind of molding to 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:48.600 that role. I know he ain't the prolific scores and 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:50.719 people just said beforehand, but you think he can make 0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:52.080 him a second to a player that could give him 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:53.239 a lot of contributions to the playoffs. 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:56.600 Cools can get you fifteen sixteen to night easy, but 0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:59.920 they need somebody that can get you twenty five easy 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.600 any giving night. They need Lou Williams wherever they can 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:05.400 find Lou at whoever your Lou Williams is in the 0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:06.000 league right now. 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:06.600 That's what they need. 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:09.040 They need Jordan Clarkson for sure, So they need to 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.200 go make the trade for Jordan Clarkson. I love Bobby Porters, 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:17.040 but you got Cools. Now, Cools can hit that road 0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:19.080 for BP BP is a. 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:21.040 Four. 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.599 Kyle can play three four most definitely. Now you said 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.480 that he's a he's a willing defender, especially capable as well. 0:06:27.680 --> 0:06:29.240 I wonder how that will work out because from the 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:30.720 fiscal standpoint, they needed. 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:32.640 Another wing sozeable and helping those guards up. 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:34.600 You got him and try and Prince kind of take 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:35.800 a load off for Gianni's. 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.360 Paul to deal with some of those opperation line teams 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:38.279 in the East. Yeah. 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:39.960 Now you can play small bull too. You can move 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:43.240 Giannas to the five. Yeah, you can do that, and 0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:47.000 versatile team that can guard one through five. 0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:49.320 I mean you could do that with Bobby Porters to 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:52.160 Bobby for It's a little slower at foot the Cools is, 0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:53.560 but they. 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.640 Get for sure. 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.200 Man, Listen, I am very interest to see how this 0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:00.200 works out. We gave Dot a lot of fly early 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.120 in the season, but he has made it work. But 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:04.679 I think this team could really do something, especially adding 0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:06.320 a wing like that Kyle Kuzma. 0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:08.280 I minaged to see what's next.
