The Sabonis thing, they like Sabonis, but they're trying to pivot here.

So all that being said, you know, it has not been a great couple days.

when it comes to their roster building.

That three-team trade for Hunter, it did advance their agenda, but the fact that it included a guy, Dennis Schroeder, who they picked up last summer and then quickly wanted to get off his money because it didn't work out, that one didn't age well.

It's easier said than done.

But to me, if you look at...

what they had last summer.

And teams run into this a lot.

We talked about the human factor, and stick with me, I'll land the plane here.

But you look at that roster and you already kind of know back then that you don't truly believe in almost any of these players.

You're going to invest in Keegan Murray, Nick Clifford, he drafted.

So the young guys, sure.

But the Levine, DeMar, Sabonis, Malik Monk, you know you're off of them.

So the idea of spending $45 million, a little bit less than that on guarantees, but to go get a Dennis Schroeder and make your mountain even bigger just obviously was a mistake.

And especially when he knew that Russell Westbrook was a possibility on the back end of that, Russ came in, did what Russ does, won the job.

know piss dennis off in the process he goes to the bench um you know then you have then you have a lost situation that leads to you moving one of your best assets in keon ellis in a deal like the one they did as opposed to uh you know just a cleaner one for one where you get an asset so hopefully that all makes sense but yeah you know they're the timeline you know until further notice is

it's out quite a ways.

I mean, they are, I think currently, you know, got the worst record in the league.

It's a, it's a wonderful draft.

They're hoping they get lucky there.
