No money, no respect, and no Jalen Brown.
And at the end of the day, the Celtics preemptively got out in front of that.
But I think the question around the league is why this trade, right?
Like why Paul George?
Why the picks?
And clearly the Celtics like Paul George a lot.
Hmm.
He was with Indy, and then he had shoulder surgeries, I want to say, with the Thunder, and then he had some knee surgeries when he was with the Clippers.
And then last season, he dealt with the hyperextended knee, and then he got suspended for 25 games for an anti-drug violation for a product that he used.
I think the point that you're making, BC, I think that's... I mean, the relationship had run its course between... Yeah, but you all were trying to act like it wasn't.
I mean, once once they started having conversations with the Giannis front, like a little after that, when the deal didn't happen, I made it very clear when I was doing TV, like they were either going to make a trade for a top flight player like they like they tried to do with Giannis, or they're going to go approach this trade with another path, which is try to get as many draft picks as you can possibly get.
So when you go out and you try to move with Jalen Brown, you want to go get Giannis.
There's no other better player than Jalen Brown on the market than a Giannis that was available.
So then you try to get four or five first round picks.
They were asking teams in late June going into July for like a handful of first round picks.
There was going to be a non-starter of a conversation if you didn't come with that many picks.
But time went on, and that price clearly went down, and they felt a sense of urgency going into, as you get into summer league this month.
Now, again, the question on league is why do it when they completed the trade?
Why do it the second day of free agency?
You could have waited a week, could have waited later on.
