 What's the word y'all? All right man, we are diverting away from our normal recap schedule. Yesterday I missed the entire Slater Games live because I was at the White Sox Game throwing out the first pitch. I'm dropping a video on Kenny Baseball about that amazing experience. And today I was kind of with the chill of my daughter, man. I did watch the games, but I didn't watch, watch the games enough to do your recap. And they were blowouts anyway. What is there to say? Devin Booker's a hooper and same thing with Jimmy Butler. Like you knew those things. So instead we are diverting a little bit and we're doing this Bleach Report article. Okay, y'all know we love traits. I'm a main channel, I'm a pseudo general manager. I love thinking about traits. Traits are some of the most fun things about sports in general, not just basketball. And I love reacting to Bleach Report traits because it seemed like Bleach Report articles are either a lot of hits or a lot of misses. And this was sent to me by 2KMessiah over on Twitter and he said, Kenny, you got to do a video about it. And he sent me one screenshot of a trait and it was terrible. So I'm assuming that a lot of the traits in this video are bad. But I want to say I am not attacking the Arthur over here. Shout out to Greg Schwartz. But it's hard to put together good traits. But he gave us one from every team and let's be honest. There's no way you put together 30 great traits. So we're about to see. Immediately off rip, I'm a little bit concerned because this screenshot makes it seem like either these two are going to be teaming up and getting traded for each other. Either way, I got to see how you put that together. Mr. Greg. All right, shout out to Bleach Report. If you didn't know, I work with Bleach Report on occasions, but that does not stop me from tearing shreds of an article or things that go on. You got to hold people accountable. You feel me? Atlanta Hawks, Malcolm Brogdon, Buddy Hill for John Cosley, Kevin Herter. I'm pretty sure this is the trait that I saw originally that maybe you want to see do this video. I just don't understand it from the Atlanta Hawks perspective. If you're the Indiana Pacers, sure, you trade away two older players for two younger players. Boom, now you got Tari's Halliburton and the live threat in John Collins. You got some shooting and some scoring. But if I'm the Atlanta Hawks, I mean, are we just going for a secondary ball handler for Trey Young? So it's like Trey Young, Bogdanovich, Malcolm Brogdon, DeAndre Hunter, and Clickapella? I mean, I'd rather just keep this. Malcolm Brogdon doesn't increase my ceiling so much that I think we can get back to the Conference Finals. I don't think this right here puts us back in the Conference Finals, especially with Brog right here, cannot stay healthy for 70% of the season. Pass, 0 for 1. Next one, Boston Celtics. Terrence Ross for a second round pick in the trade exception. This is a nothing trait, but it says right here, the Celtics rank 26 overall in bench scoring. Terrence Ross scored at least a little bit. I'm moving on to the next one. And it's kind of juicy. Okay, I see Ben Simmons' name down here. Jeremy Grant, Kelly Olenek, Corey Joe for Ben Simmons. This is a very interesting trait. And I'm mostly saying it's interesting because I'm trying to figure out from the Boston, nope, from the Detroit Pistons perspective, would I do this deal if I was the general manager of the Pistons? If I'm not mistaken, Jeremy Grant is on the last year of his deal. Kelly Olenek, I mean, he had a, okay, season for you, but he's not a guy that you keep around because you're trying to build with him. Corey Joe, backup, poingar, who ain't been great. He had, he had his moments for sure. For Ben Simmons or a version of Ben Simmons. We don't know that version of Ben, we don't know what that Ben Simmons is, right? But with this trade, you're basically tying a bunch of money into Ben Simmons. When you have a lot of cap space in Detroit, this off season in, next off season, if you get Jeremy Grant off the books. I don't know how to feel about this trade, man. If I'm the Brooklyn Nets, I have to subvert my expectations for Ben Simmons when he finally comes back because the back surgery is nothing you sneeze at, you know? I don't know, next one. Stephen Adams for James Book Knight and Mason Plum. This is a terrible trade if I'm the Charlotte Hornet. It's like, yeah, we desperately need center play, but I'm not giving up on 17 year old James Book Knight. He might be 20 at this point, honestly. To get Stephen Adams for what, a season, two seasons? And Stephen Adams, sure, of course, helps your team be better, but he's not helping your team be like a top five seed, which is probably what you're looking for. If you're the Charlotte Hornets, you're not just trying to be a playing team no more. You're trying to be top six seed is what I mean. And this don't really do it. Hell, if I'm Book Knight, I'm saying yes, because maybe I can get some PT over there with the Grizz because the Hornets decided not to play me this season. But you know, you got a new coach coming in, so who knows? I don't like this trade at all for the Hornets. And if I'm the Grizz, I mean, I guess. I mean, it's kind of a log gym over there with the guard position. Of course, you got John Tyce Jones, who's up for an extension or gonna hit free agency. You got Dylan Brooks, D'Anthony Melton. You got John Contra. There's a lot of players that he'd be fighting for minutes for, so I don't even know. Chicago Bulls, let me hear it. Rudy Gobert for Patrick Williams, Nikola Vucevich and Zavante Grave. I would do this trade if it wasn't Patrick Williams in it. If instead we were giving up Kobe White, I would do this trade. And I understand some, whatever team trades Rudy Gobert is gonna be paying him when he's like 26 and you're gonna be paying him a lot, oh, 36, you're gonna be paying him a lot of money. And I'm putting a lot of money when he turns 36, 37. And maybe that's not something you wanna do. But I watched this Bulls team struggle defensively and a lot of that came from the five position. Vucevich is just not, well, I mean, we didn't trade for him to be a defensive center in the first place, obviously. But a lot of the times I felt like the offense didn't make up for the lack of defense. And Rudy Gobert, say what you want about him. I know a lot of people, hey, Rudy Gobert, I'm still a Rudy Gobert fan. And I think he would look kinda decent here in Chicago because we have other people, whether it be Caruso, Lonzo Ball, that will help him defensively and he's never really had any help defensively other than like Royce O'Neal occasionally. So if it wasn't for Patrick Williams being in the straight, I would do this. In my personal opinion, Patrick Williams should be untouchable still. Just because we have a rookie season and in like 10 games of him in the sophomore year, I still don't know what to expect from him. And because of that, I won't trade him away in year number two or I guess going into year number three. Next, Cleveland Cavaliers. Vonte Graham for Jetty Osmond, Dylan Wendler in a second round pick. Personally, I would not do this trade if I'm the Cavaliers. I'm not adding another 6-1 guard to my rotation when I already got Dearest Garden, I already got Collis Sexton coming back from his injury. I'm not adding another dude. I mean, he's a high-valued 3-point shooter that can make him occasionally and he's very good off the catch of short. Is he very good off the dribble? He's very good at either one of the two of off the dribble off catch of short. I always mix it up. But see, I'm not doing this trade to add another small guard to my rotation, especially what we just saw in this first round series against the Phoenix Suns. It's not that he's not unplayable in the playoffs, but he's probably relegated to like 12 minutes. And I know that Jetty Osmond could give me some solid minutes if we were to make a playoff push. So I don't like this trade. I add all of these trades. How many of them have I like? Zero? A question mark? A question mark? It's kind of rough out here. Next, Dallas Mavericks. Zach Hollis for Davos Bertens in two seconds. This is like dumping off Davos Bertens' contract. I completely understand it for Zach Hollins. So I think signed a two-year deal, maybe a three-year deal, but it wasn't worth a lot of money. I mean, I guess if I'm the Dallas Mavericks, I do this even though Davos Bertens be giving them somewhat decent minutes in this playoff series, in this current playoff series. But when you think about the longevity of his contract, of course you want to get rid of that if you want to build him around Luca. You got to throw in two second round picks to get it done. This is another trade. This is kind of a nothing trade. I was hoping they put together the big slim and jamming to get Luca a secondary player other than Jalen Brunson. But I guess not. I guess it's Zach Hollins to help with the salary stuff. And yeah, salary shedding and blah, blah, blah. I knew it was a big part of basketball and sports in general when you do the salary dumps and stuff like that. But it's like nine times out of ten it's a yarn fest for me and I'm not interested in it. Fort Conkorkamas. Isaiah Joe for Jamaico Green. What? What? This was like the last thing that he added to the article. He's like, what can I do for Denver? I mean, they got two people coming back. We don't really know what to expect for them. And they got a bunch of role players that like, eh, but not really. Let me just put together something. And this is what he put together. These dudes would go to Denver and play 12 minutes total. Not a trade to talk about. Next. All right. Okay, now we got something. Jeremy Gregg for Gary Trent Jr. Why would the, why would the, I'm trying to figure out why would Toronto Raptors do this? We got OG, I don't know. We got Scotty Bards. We got Pascal Siakam. We still got Thaddeus Young until further notice. We got Chris Boucher. We got a lot of six, seven and above players. And I like the catch and shoot ability of Gary Trent Jr. He's like 24 and under contract for some time, right? Trent made 41% of his catches, shoot threes this season, giving the Raptors. Yeah. So why would I trade this away if I'm the Raptors for Toronto? Grant is the perfect physical profile to fit their roster of big athletic wings. Okay. But I feel like they got to, they got enough of them personally. Grant would start in one of their forward spots along with Pascal, OG, Scotty and Fred Van Vleet running the point. I mean, that would be a cool defensive lineup. I worry about their catch and shoot ability. They're going to generate a lot of open shots with this lineup. And OG's a good catch and shoot shooter. Scotty is still working on that going into year number two. Pascal's eye there, but like I feel like you need this dude. He's 23. I don't do this trade if I'm the Toronto Raptors, especially we consider that Jeremy Grant is going to be a free agent after this season. Ew. If I'm the Pistons, sure. I would do this 23 year old to go with catch and shoot dude to go with K cutting him and generate a lot of open shots. That's a match made in heaven. But I don't think the Toronto Raptors do that deal. Warriors. Oh, I'm also talking for all 30 fan bases. So let me know in the comment section what you agree or disagree with as a fan of that organization. Christian Wood for James Weisman, Moses Moody. If this is offered, if this offer is on the table and I'm the Houston Rockets, I am saying yes before the Warriors decide to wake up and start, stop smelling the road. This is an easy deal from the Houston Rockets. Give up the last year of Christian Wood for James Weisman who was number two overall pick a season ago. And Moses Moody who was also a lottery pick that showed flashes this season. Easy. But if I'm the Warriors, I don't do this. I think we've done an okay job where we're building the young players like Jordan Poole who's a G League player last season. Now a most important player candidate. We've done a pretty solid job having Steph Curry and them be great. The older people be great and still have the younger people develop. So I wouldn't do this if I'm the Warriors but if I'm the Houston Rockets easily, don't even think twice about it. Go ahead and make that deal happen. I'm tired of talking about this trade. Russell Esper to be bought out in two seconds for John Wall. I'm not even having an opinion of that. We talked about that a million times on this channel. Nikio Alexander Walker, watcher, her and gold man is for TJ1 on the signing trade. This don't make me wanna stay if I'm Donovan Mitchell. This don't make me wanna stay if I'm Rudy Gobert. So no. I'm Clippers. Oh, speaking of Rudy Gobert, Clippers. Ooh, ooh, ooh. Rudy Gobert for Norman Powell, Zubach and Lucanard. Honestly, if I am the Jazz, I might do this deal. But if I'm the Clippers, why would I do this deal if two years ago we exposed Rudy Gobert and made him unplayable in the playoffs? What do I have to gain? Now me, as Kenny Beachum, I understand what you have to gain because now you got Rudy Gobert with good defenders around him and this guy Kawhi Leonard and the other guy, Paul George. And now you don't have to worry about, you know, Rudy Gobert being on the island, guarding the perimeter three point shooter because a lot of people are not driving past Kawhi Leonard and driving past Paul George. But still, they were laughing at Rudy Gobert after that game. I don't think a lot of people on that team respect him enough for us to trade for him. Be honest with you. Lake Show, this is the one that was in the thumbnail. John Collins, Kevin Herter, a first round pick from 2023 that's top five protector for Anthony Davis. I, this trade is, no. This trade is a no for me. This trade is a no for me on both sides. Here's why. I don't think Anthony Davis' value is at this level point. I understand bro can't say healthy. He's never been able to say healthy. But it was just two seasons, three seasons ago, they traded him away for Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, seven first round picks and picks. Like it was a ton of stuff. And if I'm flipping Anthony Davis now to John Collins, Kevin Herter, one first round pick, I know we got the championship a few years ago, but now I'm looking at that tenure of these players to get on like, damn, was that even? You know what I'm saying? No bro, and I understand like looking at the avenues to trade Anthony Davis for show. I think that's something that Lakers should be doing. But if this is the best package you could get, I'm running it back bro. I'm running it back with Anthony Davis and LeBron and just hope that they stay healthy together. Cause this package would not be enough. I think it could be cool. Like it'll be cool to see these players as role players in LA, but let's be honest. If you have blank point guard, I don't think it's gonna be Russell Westbrook, Kevin Herter, LeBron, John Collins and blank center. You think you're gonna win the championship with that? At the end of the day, that's what the Lakers are trying to do. LeBron is not getting any younger. You don't go there and try to be like, in two years, Bron, Kevin Herter might be a little, no, no. Memphis Grizzlies. Oh, this is another, not the trade. George Hill for a second. Miami Heat, Jeremy Grant for Max Shrews, Duncan Robison in a 2022 first round pick, which is what, that's, what is that? The 28th overall pick, 29th overall pick, because they were like the best team in the Easter conference this season. I mean, again, I think that you can probably get a lot more for Jeremy Grant from a different team. If I'm the Miami Heat, this is an easy trade for me. I know Max Shrews has been really good for them, you know, coming from Chicago and everything and just being a nice role-player slash startup when they need them to. But he fits everything that they would want to do for some of the things. He don't have the shooting that you might get from Shrews, but either way, it would be a nice trade for them, I think. But if I'm in Detroit Pistols, I feel like we can get a lot more. And like, look at their previous trades. We just looked at Gary Trent Jr. I'm taking Gary Trent Jr. over this package of three. Maybe this package of three is more realistic. I don't really know, but I feel like we can get more. My Milwaukee Bucks, Kim rich Williams, he's a Kenny Hussle is a Kenny for your All-Star. Love him. If you don't went to the Bucks, I'd be upset as a division rival if you want to call the Chicago Bulls that, not really, but if you want to call the Chicago Bulls a division rival, I don't really like him coming to Milwaukee because he's really good. Minnesota Timberwolves, John Isaac and two second round picks for Malik Beasley. Huh, I'm going to go out on the limb and say that the Minnesota Timberwolves are locker room and not like having John Isaac in it. So they pass on this one. Next, Grayson Matthews, Dave and Awaba for Kira Lewis Jr. I mean, I guess I could kind of understand it from both perspectives. Do I love it? Absolutely not. But here's the rastalization behind it. If I'm gonna use the rock is I'm taking a chance on a guy that basically was a lottery pick just a few years ago, 13th overall pick a few years ago. They show flashes before it towards ACL and I'm giving you basically nothing. Garrison Matthews had a seven game stretch where he was Larry Bird. And then after that, he ain't done much for the second half of the season. And then Dave and Awaba's got hustle player, but again, we're talking about a team with average age of like 22. And he's a little bit older than that. And if I'm the Pelicans, these are just good role players that can play the ninth man, eighth man on your rotation for Kira Lewis Jr. Who's coming off of ACL injury where you already have some okay guards and maybe it's Devonte Graham or maybe it's Jose Alvarado and CJ McCullum. And maybe you don't really have room for Kira Lewis to develop. I understand it. Don't love it though. Ah, the good old state of New York trade. Ben Simmons for Julius Randall Alec Burke in a second. I don't know what's going on in this article. I'm enjoying it though. If Greg, I can get you one thing. You know how to get people talking. This is a bad trade. Nothing, nothing's right. Send Derek favorites back to the Nets for a second round pick. I mean, I guess you can play some backup center minutes behind. No, next. Ducky Robson for Terrence Ross. Next. Jackson Hayes for Bebop Hall and Forcon Corkmoss. I guess the Pelicans, I think the only reason you will probably do this is so you don't have to extend Jackson Hayes. But I'd rather just extend Jackson Hayes to take this back. It's bro. I don't know what that essentially look like, but this ain't working. But this ain't working. Next. I think that Greg is shooting like two for 24 so far. Buddy Heald for Landry Shamet. This is actually not a bad trade. It's not a bad trade. I don't actually, two thumbs up. Two thumbs up for the Phoenix Suns trade. Phoenix Suns got another like light south shooter, legitimately light south shooter. One of the greatest shooters in NBA history, believe it or not, by his value and his percentage. It's a fact. You only give up basically a second round pick at Landry Shamet, who can only play every other game. It seems like I ain't even know Dire Sergeant still on the team because he tours ACO then tour his meniscus while rehabbing his ACL. Get well soon by the way. I mean, I guess that's the okay trade for both sides. Landry Shamet is relatively young. You get a second round pick for a contract that you don't want anyway. Portland Trail, dang, the Indiana Pays in like every trade. Portland Trail Blazers. Keon Johnson. No. I feel like you could get a first round pick for Miles Turner. And don't tell me Keon Johnson is the first round pick because we ain't really seen much from him in this rookie season. I don't like this trade. Matisse Dible, four-cocked basketballs to the Kings. No. I understand that, you know, some Philly fans have turned on Matisse Dible because you can't really, his impact is not completely there night in, night out because he's a zero on offense. But even this trade feels disgusting. Justin can shoot though. You get some shooters. Alex Lanker plays second string center. Two second round picks for it. I'm, ah, next. Oh, the Bulls are back. Vusevich for Yacopo to Josh Richardson, the second round pick. If I'm the Bulls, I pull this trigger and don't think twice. I legit, I mean, maybe Vusevich has a research this year. I think the gap between Vusevich and Yacopo to as far as impact on the court is not as big as most people think it is. I don't think it's that big, bro. So if I could get a younger Yacopo on a better deal and get Josh Richardson, who I guess can play some rotational minutes, he can't be worse than Troy Brown Jr, right? And to get a second from the Lakers, which low key is like, what was that? Like the 37th overall pick, 38th overall pick. I would do this trade low key. Yep. We get a defensive center that plays well in space. I would do this trade. Yacopo and DeBarda rose them back together. I think I would do this trade if I was the Bulls. Am I crazy? I don't know why the Spurs would do this trade. I don't think the Spurs do this trade at all. Did they watch Vusevich this season? The complete season of Vusevich? If you did, you probably, you, you not, if you disperse, you're not pulling that trade. All right, Toronto. New Orleans No Well from Kim Burch. Sure, New Orleans No Well is a good basketball player. Deal. If I'm the Raptors. Utah Jazz. Wow. Wow, wow, wow. Mitchell Rob sent on a signing trade. Alec Burks back to Utah. Evan Fournier and then a first round pick top 10 protector from Dallas in 2023. Wow. Do I not hate this trade either? Mitchell Robinson, Alec Burks, Evan Fournier. Now, this is not keeping Donovan Mitchell. I'm saying that right off rip. Donovan Mitchell don't see this trade happening. Be like, yes, I'm so happy to stay here in Utah. But when you think about the value of Rudy Gobert, I don't hate this trade thinking about the value of Rudy. He might be one of the greatest defensive players of all time. It don't seem like a bad value for him in that long contract. You get a young player, Mitchell Robson. If you could teach bro to stay out of foul trouble, stay on the court, he's going to be solid. Alec Burks is a good NBA player. And Evan Fournier is a good NBA player. I know they got some contracts that might not be super favorable. But Evan Fournier shot 39% from three this season if you didn't know. Alec Burks had a lot of good moments in the last two seasons if you didn't know. I don't hate this trade. I don't hate this trade at all. Rudy Gobert probably wouldn't survive in New York low key. They'd boo the hell out of him. All right, last one. Killin' Hayes for then you'd be, oh, we didn't end it on a sneaker. We didn't end it on a sneaker, ladies and gentlemen. That was fun. At the bare minimum, that was at least fun. That's all we're here for, man. Let me know which trades you think were the best and which one was the worst. I'm in the comment section.
