Like where do those fall for you? voice-verified

We absolutely should be applauding it. voice-verified

I would say more than anything, because Peyton Watson is a bit of an unknown. voice-verified

Because this is not like someone that everyone in the league fully understands, where his talent has been maxed out, and you can put a very clean number on what you think he does on a basketball court. voice-verified

There's a lot of disagreement among basketball people, among like just on what Peyton Watson might become and how good he might ultimately be. voice-verified

And for the Nuggets, a team that is desperate for that kind of upside, desperate for just like anyone on their roster who could overachieve beyond their role and circumstances to bul to balk financially at paying admittedly deep into the second apron and tax and hamstring themselves in all those ways while the Cavs take on some version of that same risk, admittedly at their lower tier in terms of the aprons and all that. voice-verified

I'm with you, Justin. voice-verified

Like this, this is exactly the kind of gamble you want a team like Cleveland to take, especially because they have so many things nailed down. voice-verified

Like the other four guys who are starting, we know who they are. voice-verified

We have seen so many wings cycle through here at this point in various iterations. voice-verified

None of it has quite worked. voice-verified

None of it has quite clicked. voice-verified

I don't think Peyton Watson is an airtight fit by any means, but he's exactly the kind of interesting fit I wanna see if he has a shot to to pull this team together and give them some new life. voice-verified

Yeah, especially to try to pack all of Peyton Watson's talent between those bookends of the guards and the bigs. voice-verified

And it it can be narrow, it can be defined in some ways. voice-verified

I I'm with you that like who Peyton Watson is as a defender, or at least has shown to be, I believe in that player. voice-verified

I but as Kyle kind of brought up, I'm curious about not is he a good defender, but is he good at the defensive assignments that the Cavs need him to take? voice-verified

Specifically that like switching over to defend guards. voice-verified

And the other part of this that we're not really talking about yet is voice-verified

Making this addition is not only a swing for the kind of wing that the Cavaliers need, but it's a move that keeps the door open if they ever want to more dramatically change the shape of their front court. voice-verified
