Like this is a this Peyton Watson could be a full-time starting power forward for the Cleveland Cavaliers in two years. voice-verified

That could be a thing that they, you know, explore down the line if the need necessar like if that need arises. voice-verified

It's just nice to have a move that is like a big financial investment, a swing on talent that doesn't voice-verified

you know, pull up the ladder behind you in terms of your ability to have some kind of escape plan from this thing if it doesn't work out. voice-verified

It just feels like a well-considered move all around at a cost of the 2031 pick. voice-verified

But like that's that's what you do when you're a good team that's on the verge of contention and been knocking on the door and trying to break through is you trade your picks for good players and hope for the best. voice-verified

I think it's gonna be pretty streamlined, uh, because the Cavs offense of uh like often functions that way, whether it's starting with Harden or Mitchell. voice-verified

Um and Harden, I will say over time has tilted a little more. voice-verified

He's always been a perfectly willing playmaker, a really prolific passer to say the least. voice-verified

But like he can't get to the rim the way he used to. voice-verified

So it's not always like, can I dribble penetrate anymore? voice-verified

Sometimes it's just like let me bail out of this at the first sign of any advantage. voice-verified

And if that ball swings to Peyton Watson in the corner. voice-verified

All the better. voice-verified

Like voice-verified

To me, it's not about the creativity or the touch time for Watson so much as like how real was his like somewhat low volume three point shooting last season that was excellent. voice-verified

Like, is is he gonna be a forty-two percent three point shooter or a thirty four, thirty-five percent three point shooter? voice-verified

Cause it's one of the most unstable stats anywhere in the NBA, guys very wildly season to season. voice-verified

Who who Baden Watson is as a shooter is not nailed down yet. voice-verified

And so if he can be someone who actually is a threat, who actually is drawing defensive attention while playing a pretty simplified role, operating out of the corners on a lot of possessions, like I think that's I think that's well within what he seems to be capable of. voice-verified
