6.966 - 34.996 Logan Murdock

Logan Murdoch here. Roger Bell and a few real ones today where we talk about mock trades to get Giannis for 29 teams in the NBA where somehow all 29 teams have been able to fleece the Bucs into getting Giannis Antetokounmpo. And we talk about, we ask two questions. How long would it take for said team to be a contender? And do you trust the front office to be able to provide that? Very wonky.

56.342 - 71.409 Logan Murdock

I don't know the language here. He's officially, like, I don't know, teams are, like, about to start submitting bids and trying to get him Some teams are trying to get him during the deadline or before the deadline next week. And other teams are going to try to get his services afterwards.

Chapter 6: What would a Giannis trade mean for the Golden State Warriors?

83.54 - 105.764 Logan Murdock

Let me just explain what we're going to do. We're going to do the fake trades episode for all other 29 teams in the league. And we're going to ask two simple questions. Will this trade for Giannis take the team to contender status? And how confident are you that they can do it, said team can do it, even with Giannis Adetokounmpo? Let's get to the pot, okay?

Chapter 7: How would the Houston Rockets benefit from acquiring Giannis?

105.784 - 123.939 Logan Murdock

First team is up is the Atlanta Hawks. Let's just say, you know, hey, Atlanta Hawks call the Bucs. This is after the draft. Hey, we got this 26 first-round pick from New Orleans. That's the number one pick in the draft. We're going to give you Kispert.

Chapter 8: What are the implications of Giannis joining the Los Angeles Lakers?

123.979 - 151.509 Logan Murdock

We're going to give you Dyson Daniels. We're going to give you Okonwu. We're just going to make the numbers work, and you're going to give us Giannis. How long will it take? And the Hawks are keeping Jalen Johnson in this exercise. So how long would it take for the Hawks to become a contender in your eyes? I think you're pretty quickly leveling up from where you are now as a team.

153.131 - 179.057 Logan Murdock

How long does it take you to get into the upper echelon of the Eastern Conference? I'm assuming Jason Tatum is back next year. So I've got Detroit, the Knicks, Boston. I think you're still outside of that level of team, at least initially. But I think you level up pretty quickly, obviously, with the addition of Giannis. Two years, maybe?

0

179.959 - 203.08 Logan Murdock

I think you need some tinkering around the edges, some pieces, some complimentary pieces. But to get those right, I think you have to see that play. I think you have to see the combination of of of the two players play and really get a real assessment of what you would need to complement them. So for that reason, I think you're two, three years away, two years, two years, maybe.

0

203.842 - 227.05 Logan Murdock

Yeah, I think this would be a pushing the button before you're ready type of deal for the Hawks. Right. You're trying to build around Jalen Johnson. And he also has to mature to a basketball player, right? Not just in the regular season, but going into the playoffs and to reach the heights that you would want to reach as a team. Yeah, I think you're about right, three years.

227.071 - 245.522 Logan Murdock

I don't think that's on Giannis' time, not necessarily, but I think the Hawks very much are in play here because they have, I think, the best package to get Giannis with that potential New Orleans pick, especially if it goes number one because it allows Milwaukee – to be able to replenish very quickly.

246.143 - 271.266 Logan Murdock

And then if you give them a 27 pick next year as well, I think it's from New Orleans, it's top four protected. If you do get another pick, you can replenish pretty fast with that. So two, three years. I think we're in agreeance on that. Boston Celtics are the next team on the board. So Boston calls the Bucs. Be like, yo, man, hey.

271.347 - 278.916 Logan Murdock

I know we're conference rivals, but we want two different things here. I'll give you Derek White, Peyton Pritchard, and some picks.

280.578 - 289.91 Raja Bell

And the Bucs are like, yeah, come here. Come on. It's all good. Why not? Yep. How long?

291.912 - 302.607 Logan Murdock

How long does the flight take to get from Milwaukee to Boston? About two hours. It's about two hours and 30 minutes. I'm assuming there are facilities relatively close to the airport.
