I mean, he was a top 15 defensive player in the sport last year, and he was a league leader in points per game, and they won, what, 67, 68 games, and they won a championship.
It was an all-time guard season in NBA history when you factor in all defensive ranks, points per game leader, 65-plus wins, and a championship led by a guard who won MVP.
Like, it's...
I think it's literally him and Michael Jordan that have done that.
He's a very, very impressive player.
I get why everyone has... He's the type of guy, also kind of like Kobe, who might never be regarded as the best player in the league.
But we'll win a bunch of titles because like Jokic is the best player in the league and then he might pass that baton to Wemby and SGA might never actually like hold the belt.
But at the end of the day, he'll be the one who's like, oh, yeah, but I also have four rings and two MVPs.
And he could win MVP this year, by the way.
I still think he could win this year if he plays enough games.
I mean, listen, I think that the underlying thing about the whole thing is obviously how much Crosby likes and respects Caleb.
And I don't know that Crosby is going to pull the lever to demand the trade, but he's been flirting with it for a while.
And we know that Ryan Poles has traded a second-round pick for Montez Sweat.
And we know that the Bears have the 25th pick in the draft.
So, like...
if Ryan polls deems that there are only 22 players worthy of a first round grade, so that that's a, that's really a second round talent that you would get at 25.
Uh, but you'd have to pay them like a first rounder that makes it a lot easier to trade the 25th pick in the draft.
I think that there's a real chance that the Bears make that offer centered around that pick for Crosby, and I think Crosby would be open to coming to Chicago, and obviously it would be a huge financial investment in the position, but it's a huge need for the Bears.
So that's one, but then Crosby and so many guys praising Caleb for how impressive and how impressed they were with him, and Caleb saying that he wants to have the best offense.
