Like I said, the next two drafts are not considered to be very strong, especially at the top.

That's key, right?

100%.

And so, I mean, this is a really bad high school class that's coming to be freshman now.

And

A lot of players, you know, there's not a whole lot.

And then the five for five rule is coming in in the NCAA.

So a lot of these players are going to get an extra year of eligibility.

So the guys that you thought were going to be seniors next year actually can stay now two more years.

And so what is next year's draft even going to look like?

it's a major question mark in terms and that there's not a, not a great crop of international players too.

So I, if you're Oklahoma city, you're probably looking at all that and saying, you know, yeah, let's consolidate, let's just put a boatload of picks and, and, and move up.

And, you know, I mean, AJ Mitchell, he's such a great contract that, you know, maybe you trade one of their bigger deals, you know, like instead, because you want to think about the cap and the tax and all that.

And so,

And everybody knows that at the same time.

And so I just think it's, it's hard to do deals.

I mean, it's just the fans.

I mean, they get attached to the top five ownership and the front office.

You fall in love with the, with the pick and the, and the idea of what this player is going to become.

And nobody wants to hear about, you know, a 2028 first rounder right now.
