I've seen people say like four or five, but I just – I don't believe it.

I agree.

Khan gets the win Hornets playing much better basketball right now, and they will make the plan to the Cooper point though.

I think his role on this team, if we're doing the whole rookie of the year here, his role is much more difficult than what Khan can implement his work right now.

Man, it feels like it was only yesterday that you were asking Giannis if this season was a failure or not.

And that ended up being a whole thing on itself too.

It's kind of crazy to recollect all of the moments that have happened throughout this journey.

I'm assuming for yourself and obviously for everybody who's covered the Bucs over the last decade or so.

when you think of how close we've gotten to yannis potentially getting moved you know if you want to call it the doomsday clock or whatever this is the closest we've ever gotten right

For however it worked out, the Damian Lillard trade was, I mean, felt impossible to pull off.

Well, it was also like sound reasoning when it happened.

Every single person, including us, probably was like, well, this is now a championship contender, right?

100%.

And I think ultimately you think about the way that they were able to stay creative, right?

Even the Miles Turner situation, despite it being, like you said, like refinancing a house consistently, it was very creative to pull that off.

That was something that just didn't seem possible to most people.

And yet they found ways to do it.

To your point about whether it happens at the deadline or whether they end up pushing this to the summer, what do you think is the possibility there?

What's the likelihood of him getting traded in the next week or so versus him getting traded in the summer?

So the other aspect to waiting in the offseason is that some of these teams that are, quote-unquote, turning their nose up at Giannis in Oklahoma City Thunder or Houston Rockets or San Antonio Spurs.
