Zach’s Mega-Playoff Preview! Reaction to Breaking News, Plus All the Action Out West With Bill Simmons, and Eastern Previews With Mo Dakhil.

I'd never liked the Beal trade. I have learned, as I know you have too, to really trust people that I trust their basketball when they're watching somebody day in and day out and they're saying whether the guy is truly a winning player or not. And for what they gave up, I thought they were doing the Wizards a favor. It was one of those contracts.

they were delighted. They were like, really, we get to get out of this Bradley bill thing. Look at what happened with Zach Levine, you know, recently with the bulls where the bulls had to like take on contracts back just to kind of get out of that deal that they had. So I, you know, I, I think the big sin was that summer with the Chris Paul expiring and,

with Aiton when they basically tried to make a title team and they went all in. And I remember saying at the time, like, I just never like moves where there's no way out. Once you're past a certain point, if you don't have any outs, that's the most dangerous place you can be in basketball. We've seen these teams just get paralyzed for years and years.

The Sixers with the Embiid and George contracts, they left themselves no outs. And yet somehow they got an out because now they have a chance to have a top six pick And they have some collateral. They might be able to move out. There's no way out for the Suns. And that's, you know, I talked about this on my pod. I went to see them in that Austin game against the Spurs. You were alarmed.

Yeah, it was a 10 out of 10 for the body language doctor. I just couldn't believe it. So, you know, Bud clearly didn't connect the team at all. I couldn't have been more wrong. I love their over. Their over was 47 and a half. I thought they were going to be like one of the better offensive teams of the last 10 years. And it was just off from the get-go.

There's bigger questions with them, though, because I just don't think the Durant trade is going to solve a lot of the stuff that's going on here. I don't know what his value is heading into his 19th season with the surgeries he's had and just the aging curve of the league where basically only LeBron has been able to stay at a top 15 level past a certain season. So I don't know.

Everybody seems terrified about second apron being locked into numbers. They have contracts that are, you know, going up on their own team. And then you're just adding this and just people don't have the salary to, to move. And then the sons are handicapped by all these things where they can only take one contract back for Durant, unless there's like these other side trades.
