Speaker 1 (00:00):
If you were just going to rank NBA teams based
on the next three years, the three year outlook, who'll
be number one and who'll be number thirty. We're figuring
that out today. That's exactly what the NBA insiders did
over on ESPN and this one. They consider the players
that are on the roster, the amount of money they
have to spend, the draft assets that they have, the
market that they're in, and then the management, the good

(00:22):
gms and scouts across the league.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
And I'm excited to see where everyone falls.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
This video is brought to you by cash Out And
when I tell you about the cash app car, here's
a video of me using the cash apt personalization. The
cash app card is a debit card attached to your
cash app balance. As you can see, you can pick
from a bunch of different colors. You can customize to
fit your style and make it unique.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Just for you like I did.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
But it's not just about the cool personalization aspect of
having the car. You also get exclusive card holder discounts
on things like coffee, food delivery, video games, and more.
If you like to get out and have some fun
with some music. Cash app is also partnered with some
of the best artist tours out there, like Kenjudy Lamarro, Siza,
Sabrina Carpenter, Drake Chapelone. The list goes on and on,

(01:08):
and with that, cash Up car owners get exclusive pre
sale before everybody else.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Gets an opportunity to get the tickets.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
But the thing that matters to me the most is
the no hidden feest, the top of the line security,
the no fee overdraft coverage. If you direct to positive
least three hundred dollars in paychecks a month, you unlock
up to two hundred dollars and free overdraft coverage. And
if you overdraft unexpectedly, there's no hidden fee to worry about.
Full limited time only new cash At customers can earn

(01:35):
ten dollars if they use code cash in ten and
their profile at sign up and send five dollars to
a friend within fourteen days. Terms apply. So shout out
again to cash Out for sponsoring this video. I feel
like the top let's say three teams should be pretty easy.
I think OKC should be number one. I feel like
the Rockets should be somewhere in that top three. Actually,

(01:58):
I don't know who else will be in there, maybe
maybe the Calves. Let's let's find out again, these are
from the NBA inside, so it's not one specific person.
They had a bunch of different people, including Kevin Pelton
and Bobby Marx and Tim Bontemps. Give their examples or
reasons why they have certain things.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Well, the Spurs find themselves.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
That's a good question, because we Minyama by himself might
be good enough for tap thigh. Let's see, we got
number one on the list should be of course, the
Oklahoma City Thunder. They got number one in players to
make sense, they got the MVP of the league and
All NBA and All defensive player in j dub and
another guy in Chet Homer who should make an all
defensive team if he stays healthy. Not to mention some
of the dogs they got on defense with a Caruso
or Door like, this team should be good for the

(02:38):
next three seasons and maybe have the opportunity to repeat.
I know we haven't had a repeat champion over the
last like eight or so years. I think okay See
definitely has a chance. The money aspect is that twenty
eighth because yeah, it makes sense, Shay is on the MAX.
They did just give Check and Dub both MAX extensions
we know that Isaiah Hartenstein basically got like a one
year left table with a time table with the team,

(02:59):
So the money is a bit close, but like the
team is so young that they can make it work
and then the market is small. But at the end
of the day, that don't matter that much. Number two
on the list, they do have the Houston Rocket, So
I was right about that. They got number two in
players over the next three seasons, number twenty one in money,
five in draft capital, number eight in market, and fourign management.
I do think that if you think about when the

(03:21):
James Harden trade happened, in the assets or lack of
assets they got for the James hard And trade, it's
you know, I can't even really say lack of assets
with that trade. I know that they didn't get like
no real in the door talent, but like you know,
they got some picks as that end up top top five,
and then you know we able to parlay one of
those picks to go get other picks. So I can't
say that that was a super awful trade. But like considering,

(03:44):
you know, one of the two greatest players in a
franchise history still really good at what he does, I
feel like there could have been more, But the fact
that they've been able to take that and still be
at this point where like a lot of people look
at them as contenders is pretty pretty dope. Next we
got the next Okay, So I was wondering what that
next team is going to be, and it is the Knicks.
So the Calves gotta be no further than number four.
They got number five and players number twenty nine and money. Yeah,

(04:06):
this is the second eight per team, number twenty seven
in draft capital. Yeah, they gave a lot of it
to get m Michel Bridges on the team. Number two
in market and number nine and management. Leon Rose has
definitely come in and changed some things. Earlier in my
lifetime as an NBA fan, the New York Knicks where
one of the laughing stocks in basketball.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
It never can get it right.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
They got one of the owners that want to put
his foot in the door and put a stamp on
the team where he didn't really need to do that.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
They let Leon Rose cook up.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Jalen Brunton is one of the best stars in ball
and they've put together a good team around him and
they should be a contender this season. Number four, Okay,
So yes, we do get the Calves here, all right, cool, cool, No,
no disrespect to the Calves.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
They're here.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Number three in players, number thirty in money. Yeah, yeah,
Evin Mobley's has got the money. Yeah, that makes sense
to me. Number twenty five in draft assets, number twenty four,
market number six, and man, but it really is about
the players. Again, over the next three years, you would assume,
I know, progression is never really linear or is really linear,
but you would assume that Evan Mobley continues to get better.

(04:59):
You assume that a lot of guys on the roster,
you know, have more cohesion and so on. They could
get out of that second round. It's got to be
the year, right, It's got to be the year number
five they got clear Oh they got Clippers number five,
number twelve in players. That seems kind of low, but
oh it's again, three year outlook, three year outlook. Some
of the people on that roster not even gonna be
in the league in three years. Shout out to my goat,

(05:21):
be happy, Chris Paul, he's pretty much done money number five. Okay,
that's news to me. Let's see exactly what the second
version boosts flexibility and reshape the roster. Starting in twenty
twenty seven, the only center Zubats on a guaranteed contract,
LA could boast up to one hundred and forty million
dollars in cap space that summer. Wow, Okay, you learn

(05:42):
something new every single day.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
So yeah, the money being number five makes sense.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
Draft capital is not very high, especially if this investigation
with Kawhi and that draft capital might drop a.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Little bit more. We know what the market is in LA.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
And then yeah, their management group, the fact that they
continue to make the playoffs time and time again under
the Chris Paul era, the no Chris Paul era to
you know, the Kawhi Paul George era. And then now
in this era was Kawhi James Harden is Zoo And
then yeah, when Kawhi James Harden is done, it just
a Zoo era. They're probably gonna be a playoff team.
That's just who they are and that's good management group.

(06:14):
Number six the Golden State Warriors. I'm genuinely surprised to
see the Warriors this high. They got number ten players,
number eighteen in money. I know a lot of these
contracts come off the book in twenty twenty seven drafted,
they're number seventeen, market is four and management is five.
Can I ask you it's a genuine question this Mike

(06:35):
Dunleavy Junior deserves to have management being five. Like, have
we been super really like super impressed since Mike Dunlavy
has taken over the Warriors. You let me know. I
know why I sit here. I can't say that he's
number five. I mean, I guess it's more like an
umbrella thing. It's not necessarily about the singular GM. But
it's not like they've drafted amazingly over the last decade

(06:56):
or so. Like they got some hits. Don't get me wrong,
they got some hits. But their management being five, that's
pretty high. I'm not saying it should be thirty now,
but that seems pretty high. Next week got the Orlando Magic.
Shout out to the Magic. They're number six and players
number twenty seven. The money, yeah, Franz, Palo, Desmond Bine
all on really big contracts. Jalen Sugg signed what was

(07:17):
either a max extension or close to max extension I
don't remember, so the money is not really there. They
gave up a lot of draft capital. Go get dezim Baine.
The market is right in the middle, and then the
management is at thirteen. Okay, I'm not mad at It's
really about the players got them as high because you
think about the three year outlook pallelm and Carrol's progression,
Franz Vogular really good in EuroBasket, can some of that
continued to translate to his NBA and then Desien Banin

(07:38):
is kind of like a perfect fit alongside those two
big wings that like to get to the basket. So
I understand the players carrying heavily here. I want to
see that center position get booked up. Maybe that is
window Carter having a bounce back season after he was
a very good last season. But I feel like that
center position is the last piece of the puzzle for them,
and I don't know who it is next. We got
the LA Lakers, who are ninth in players. Are we

(07:59):
assuming is playing for the next three seasons? Is it
crazy to assume anything else? Considering what Lebron has been
doing for the last twenty three years. The money is
number six, and that's one of the reasons why they
had they hadn't done any big time things around Lukadancias
because they are also a team that's gonna have a
crazy amount of money to spend in twenty twenty seven
if everything goes well. Twenty three in draft capitol, number
one in market, number seventeen in management.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
I've been very critical over Rob Polinka.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
For Rob Polinka since twenty twenty one, you take some
of that back because he got handed Luka Dancis. But
now it's like, Okay, now we got Lukadancs, what else
can we really do?

Speaker 2 (08:31):
I do think that's seventeen.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
I'm trying to figure out if I like that range
for the Rob Polenka team over there.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah, I gotta see what are your other teams. Land
Number nine is the Denver Nuggets, where they got number
four players, number twenty five in money, number twenty nine
in draft capitol because they did give up a twenty
thirty one to go get Cam Johnson. So they just
they're so far down the line in draft capitol and
I can't even say they're wrong. But now, well, you've
got the best player in the world, you gotta do
what you gotta do to put the best team around them.

(08:58):
Market is eighteen and management is twenty one. Management being
twenty one is pretty interesting because They basically got new
management in there over the last season when they fired
their guys, So I guess we don't really know.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Two too much.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
I know that they kind of promoted within. I don't
think they still I still don't think they have a.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
GM right now.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
I think they just have two people in different spots
that are working together as the GM. I still know
how often we see that happen, and it's a little
bit scary, but also front office titles feel like who.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Is the president of basketball operations? Who is the GM?
I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
But they are number nine, number ten. This is where
we find the Spurs with eight and players. They have
fourteen in money, eleven in draft. They are sixteen in
market and fifteen in management. I actually thought the draft
would be a little bit higher. They do have an
extra asset that they brought in for the Rob Dillingham trade.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
I think they might.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
I don't know if they've used all of their Atlanta
Hawks picks from the original Johntay Murray trade. The players
being eight makes sense though women Yam's Karry and out
of that, And again, if we're doing a three year timeline,
we're hoping that's the fodcast or can you just get better?
You're hoping that you know Dylan Harper where you drafted him,
He's really the real deal in the d M.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Fox just signed his extension as well.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
So yeah, the players over again over the next three
seasons makes sense. Next we got the Wolves where they
have players at seven money at twenty six draft at
twenty eight market at thirty. I thought that the the
Mifits Grizasies were smaller market than Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
I'm tripping, I'm tripping.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
I guess management at teim Hey, they have Anthony Ewards.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Is that enough?

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Is that enough over the next three seasons? Can you
say confidently anybody outside of Anthony Edwards and maybe Jada
McDaniels is on the team in three years? Can you
say that confidence?

Speaker 2 (10:43):
Do you believe? Maybe Nasri shout out Nasri.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Can you say that you believe Rudy go Bear is
gonna be there, or Julius randel Forsh is gonna be there,
or Docted Di Vincenzo or Mike Coley. It really is
kind of like the Anthony Edwards thing. And I trust it,
I trust it. I'm sorry, I trusted number twelve is
the Atlanta Hawks. Wow, they were one of the biggest jumps.
They were twenty three last season or I don't know
when the last ranking.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
They're fourteen in players. They're not in money, so interesting.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
Okay, they're seven in draft, they're eleven in marketing and
eleventh eleventh in management. Where's that money coming from? And
my bugget, I guess Trey Young has not signed an extension.
Poor Zingis is on the last year of his deal,
and those are the bigger contracts. I mean, Jalen Johnson
sign an extension, but that's not a huge contract, so
I guess that makes sense. The drafting is where it
gets really interesting, because I'm gonna keep talking about it

(11:31):
until they proved me wrong.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
The trade that they made on draft night that Derek Queen.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
For the the best of the Bucks slash Pelicans pick,
who might be the best traded ass set this offseason,
but who knows, Maybe the Pelicans surprize, maybe they don't,
but that pick looks really juicy, and the Atlanta Hawks
are the team that has that pick right now.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
The Boss itself is still high on this list.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
They were previously ranking number two, and obviously we know
second Apron hit them, and they had the gut house
of a Drew Holliday, of a Al Horford, of a
poor zingis I steal thirteen players, twelve in money, eighteen
in draft nine, in market in eight management. I've said
this before on the podcast that I think this is
one of the most interesting, or like could be one

(12:12):
of the more impactful non championship seasons in Boston Celtics history.
This is a time where they have their own first
round pick and their best player on the team is
out for the entire year with an achilles injury. So
this could be a year if they want to play
it this way where they bridge the gap retain their
own first round pick, it ends up being less say
top ten, because they are bad. I'm not saying that

(12:34):
they will be bad, but this is like one of
the different cross roads that could go they're bad, the
season they retain a top ten pick, get a little
bit of draftlucking.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Just like that, you're looking at a Jason Tatum.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
Jalen Brown, and Darren Peterson team, or just another top
ten pick that you can help build around with the James.
I think that's an interesting way to kind of think
about it. It is a risky way to think about it,
but that's the way I wull try to right it. Hey,
I like to take that risk. Fourteen Miami Heat eighteen

(13:04):
and players ten in money nineteen and draft fifth and
market three in management?

Speaker 2 (13:11):
Huh? Are we are we just giving? Hm?

Speaker 1 (13:20):
I just can't say that I've been extremely impressed with
the management group of the Miami Heat over the last
four to five seasons.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
Let's say, Kenny, in the last.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Five seasons, they made two championships twenty twenty and then
a one against the Nuggets.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
I know, I know they did.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
I know they did, and yet I still don't know
if I feel like they're top three management group in basketball?

Speaker 2 (13:44):
Am I bugging? Am I bug I don't know?

Speaker 1 (13:48):
I don't, I don't.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Historically, don't get me wrong, pat Riley been and King
of Kings. But again, we're just looking at if his
name was not pat Riley and his name was oh
Smoke and he did exact same moves over the last
three seasons, do you believe that we would say that
that's the top three management group. The resume is the resume,
and I'm not taking none of that away. That man
is one of the most winnings GM's coaches. All I

(14:11):
would never do that, but again, just based on the
last couple of years, his name is not pat Riley,
his name is Kenny Beacham. Guess who can fired Kenny Beacham?

Speaker 2 (14:22):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Next week got the Indiana Pacers coming off two conference
finals appearance to one NBA Championshi appears they got to
be number fifteen.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
I know this year is like a gap year. Shout
out to Tyres Haliberg and get well soon. The twentieth in.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Money, fourteenth in draft, which I think that might mean,
like if they're like in this range draft, I think
that might just mean that they have pretty much all
of their own first round picks. I could be mistaken
there though. Twenty two market, seventh and management see I
think that the Pacer management group is underrated for them
to be in the twenty second market and has.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
Not missed the playoffs or have been a playoff team for.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Almost every year over the last twenty years, and now
has the NBA's finals appearance.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
It's in a conference finals appearance.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
To say that, like, there's some real stuff going on here.
Think about all of the smaller trades they've done and
you're like, oh shit, they really helped the scene, the
drafting of the Nimhar, the tray of Aaron E. Smith,
the people mean the moment they did it, whereas Malcolm
brock to going to the Celtics for nothing, like they've
done really good shit, you know, like I next, we
got the Dallas Mavericks. They were number five recently, but

(15:23):
you know, they did some stuff.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Obviously. It's still a really.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Interesting team though, even without Luca being there. Eleven the players,
twenty fourth in money, twenty first in draft capital, tenth
and market, twentieth in management. Nico Nico Nico. I wonder
if I could go back and read the last time
they did this where they were number five, was Nico
Harrison's management group higher than twenty? I feel like they

(15:45):
had to be top ten. I guess it depends on
when you did it. Because the day your Gafford trade
was really good, that PCE Washington trades really good, and
then they made the finals and you take all of
that resume away. It was like, because one major mistake,
but it's still a really interesting roster. If Kyrie Irvan
could come back at some point, but like, I just
don't know ACL injuries. I never expect the person coming

(16:05):
back from an ACO injury to be really good immediately.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
I would expect even if.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
If Kyrie came back in March of this season, I
don't expect to see normal Kyrie to the beginning of
next season. That's just my opinion. I just don't think
ACL injuries are something you just come back from, Like, hey,
I'm back to average of twenty six on fifty forty ninety.
Like that's hard, that's really hard to do. Miphis Grazies
are seventeen. They are sixteen and players seventeen, in money
eight and draft twenty three.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
In market.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
My market skills all messed up. Why did I think
that this was the smallest market in the league. They
got it at twenty three. How they gauge in the
smallest market in the league. It's isn't literally, just like
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know management
at fourteen. This is a team I don't really have
many opinions about right now. So we move the Brooklyn.
The Detroit Pisses are next, where they have seventeen and
players eight and money thirteen in draft twenty fifth in

(16:52):
market and.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
Eighteen in management.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
I guess this number of players should go up, or
you hope to have to go up if one of
the other guys, a Saw or Adoring or Ivy or
a Ron Holland for that matter, if one of them
takes a big jump the season. Because right now it
is Kay Cunningham and really intriguing young players, you want
one of them to be like, oh, I'm the guy
next to Kid, I'm the next most important player, and

(17:14):
I think out of all of them, I we're gonna
take a guess who is gonna be. I think all
of us believe in the sar Thompson. Maybe it's him.
I hope it's him, But you want, like just one
other guy, like that guy's a future All Star. I
don't think you have that on the roster right now,
at least based on what we've seen so far. But
I think Asar Thompson is one of those guys. And
like you remember, he missed a lot of the last
two seasons with a blood cloud issue. With that, you

(17:34):
can't even work out, You can't even be in the gym.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
You know.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Sometimes a player has an injury, but he's still getting
up shots. You can't really do that with his his
ailment that he had, So he's basically a year and
a half, a half a year or eight months behind
everybody else in this draft class as far as how
much workout working out he's been able to do, and
I trust him. The seventy six ers are at nineteen.
They were previously number four, dang dude. Also a big

(18:00):
jump up from the Detroit Pistons. You got to respect it.
They were number four. They're nineteen and players twenty three
in money, fourteen in Draft fourteen market, and then management
is sixteen. And that's a tough falloff, man. I did
see the pictures of Jolan B. He looks really good.
I don't know how many times it's going to fall
for that, not just specifically with Jorlan B, but I
am a guy that notoriously will fall for a good

(18:20):
offseason workout clip. I ain't gonna lie, and I think
I might be doing it again with Joe Joe. I
think they could be higher. They have a really intriguing
young core with a Maxi and McCain, edge Combe and Grimes.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
When he eventually comes.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Back to the roster, all of those guys play very
similar positions. I've recognize that, but I feel like over
the next three seasons this could be a little bit higher.
Could be the Toronto Rapts are number twenty. They pretty
much take the same they were twenty two last season.
They were twenty first in players, nineteen in money, twelfth
in draft, thirteenth in market, and twenty fourth in management.

(18:53):
I wonder how much of that management is because like
Messiah is gone and it's like Bobby Webster who got
promoted from within.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
It's a really interesting team.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
I think that it's just one of those teams that
there's so many I guess questions with how every piece
fits together to make the perfect puzzle. I mentioned this
on the show. We don't really know much. We haven't
seen the best out of Darker ray Akovic's system because
I feel like it's very rare to he's been able
to have a fully healthy roster, and I think that

(19:22):
going into next season that everybody that from the Purdles
to the Ingrams, to the bear Its to the Barnses
and quick Lit's, I think they're all gonna be healthy
for like the first time ever. So I'm curious to
see what that looks like.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
The Bucks. Yeah, the Bucks.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Over the next three years, Man, it's gonna be rough.
As long as Gianness is there, we feel good. But
over the next three years, can we say that one
hundred percent certainty?

Speaker 2 (19:45):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
They're twentything players, sixteen of money, twenty six in draft, damn,
seventeen in market, and then nineteen in management. Hey, man,
honest is on the roster right now, Troudblazers over and
again we're talking about next three seasons, A twenty second
player to eleventh and money tenth and draft, twentieth in

(20:05):
market and twenty six in management.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
As we can say these last.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
Couple, I just don't know how much I really have
to say they were thirtieth.

Speaker 2 (20:13):
So what a big jump for the Blazers.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
I really believe in Donovan Klingen as a defensive anchor
at this level of basketball. Can't wait to see him
play thirty minutes a game hopefully one day. School Henderson
has a lot left on his plate that he needs
to get out there and get after. I think it's
gonna be a interesting thing because last year at the
last months and it's tough to really gauge the team
based on March and after that, the defense looked really good,

(20:37):
and you think about Deny, you think about Tomani and
Donovan Klingan that defense should stay, especially considering their coach.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
Chaunsea is one of the ones when they come to defense.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
Bro, he cares about defense more than he'd be okaym
fas team with thirty if they prevented the other team
from going one of thirty, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Like like that defense is number one priority for him.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
He don't give a damn if the lineup that he's
trotting out can't score, but if they can defend, he
think he got a chance. Hey, Charlott Horne is number
twenty three. They're twenty fifth in players. I realized, I
haven't seen my bulls yet. What's Adilly? There's seventh of money,
their fourth and draft capital. They're twenty first in market,
twenty two in management. I like their young core. Is
that crazy? I like Brandon Miller, I like conkor Nipple. Okay,

(21:22):
it might be it, damn Okay, Maybe I can't say
I like their young core if it's only two out
of the eight players, But this is a Mello still
count as young core. You've been in the least as
twenty twenty. Yeah, you still count so LaMelo too. I
haven't opinion about some of these other guys yet, like
Tajohn Salon too early. But Utah Jazz is twenty four.
They're twenty seven to players, three in money, three in draft.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
This is this is something, ain't it. They're hiding the bulls.
Damn bro.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
They're hiding the bulls.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Damn bro. They're higher than the bulls. Brown fell off.
This is my mind.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
I think the bulls should be higher in players, not
by a lot, not by lot. We should be pretty
high in money, considering we're gonna have like ninety million
in cap space next season.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
We should be good in draft capitol.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
We're not gonna be great in draft capital because we
didn't pull off for Rego Beer and Donovan Mitroll trade.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
So we're not gonna be top three. We're gonna be
high in market. Management.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
We're probably dead last. Management is killing us already. No,
management is killing us. We're gonna be deadass last and management,
oh my god, no we're not, because the Sacramento King's
a dead ass last. And management, Oh my goodness. Okay,
so we're gonna be twenty ninth maybe twenty ninth in management,
Washington Wizards, twenty ninth in players, second in money, the

(22:40):
sixth in draft, nineteen in market, twenty.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Three in management.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Oh, are we gonna be thirtieth on this list?

Speaker 2 (22:47):
Brooklyn Nets are higher than us? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (22:49):
Money, they got it, draft capital, they got it from
the kill Bridges trade and other trades. Kevin urrnt trade.
You know, it's a lot of trades going on. Seventh
in market, thirtieth in players, single player on that team
that you one hundred percent can feel confident. Who's gonna
be there in three years? You hope that it's Cam,
You hope that it's Clas, But like, you can't say
that with so.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
You wouldn't bet your house on it, would you? If
you bet your how?

Speaker 1 (23:11):
I mean, they would give him a three year deal
instead of a qualifying offer if we knew he was
gonna be there in three years. Damn, we're gonna be dead, lad,
Oh we're twenty eighth. Let's go. They the Jazz have
a better roster than us. They got the Jazz and
put spot above us.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
Okay, we're foreign money.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, talk about that money that we got to spend
that we not gonna spend on good players eighth and
draft twelfth in market. Okay, now I'm confused, not confused, Okay,
I got twenty seventh management. The Pelicans are beneath us.
Why they have failed? Bro Wow, they failed from sixteen
to twenty nine, twenty fourth in players. I think they
deserve to be a little bit higher players. But maybe

(23:48):
I'm a little biased towards Treamer for the third and
Zion money is fifteen, draft is twenty. They did give
up that pick. I can't look past that pick. Their
twenty eighth in market and twenty ninth and management, and
then last year the Phoenix songs to our thirtieth in draft,
twenty two in money, twenty six and players they got
a market. How is market being determined here? Because I've
read uptime, it don't tell you. It just says to

(24:08):
determine the rankings, we asked these guys to rank them
on the five categories, rank them relative to the rest
of the league, because they can't be ranking based on
mar Oh sorry, market size, right, So what what is
market being because bulls are three in market?

Speaker 2 (24:23):
Whatever. That was a fun article.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
I really did it to see where the bulls are
gonna Land, and I'm upset. I'm not saying that they're wrong.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
I'm just upset.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
