 What's the word y'all welcome back to Kenny for real? We are back y'all. This is about to be great I'm in November and I'll be I'll put it out on the table man This is the month where youtubers go crazy with uploads because it's the best month for us And we're also getting closer to like the NBA season Draft is coming up free agencies coming up Even if the season doesn't start December 22nd We're looking at MLK day at the latest so expect a lot of Kenny for real videos And I said in last video like yeah, I'll talk about the Bucks for five minutes And you know what it's gonna end up being longer than five minutes because I really have something to say Be sure to leave a like and subscribe so you do not miss another Kenny for real video now Bucks fans before you dislike Before you unsubscribe and drop that crazy comment I need you to hear me out watch the entirety of this video and then you decide if you want to dislike the video But this is a message to Yanis. Do not sign that super max contract This is not clickbait. I legitimately don't think Yanis is sign a super max contract This offseason Okay, is that a little bit of clickbait? Yeah, I didn't put this offseason in the title But I think that this offseason is what I mean I will be the first to tell you that I am rooting for the Milwaukee Bucks and Yanis to come to an agreement after This offseason next this is why this is why Yanis could tear his ACL in practice right here right now And that super max contract will still be on the board this offseason and next offseason That's just how good of a player he is But I am one of those people that I really really really want to see the small market teams keep their stars Milwaukee did an amazing thing by drafting him when they did and helping him develop to the point where he is a two-time MVP I would feel heartbroken if he walked to go to Miami if he walked to go to the Warriors or wherever a heck He's he's rumored to potentially go. I would be heartbroken. I'm not even fan of the Bucks I think it'll be terrible for the league for another another guy Superstar player in a small market to walk for another big market team because it just looks it just looks bad So I want Yanis to stay in Milwaukee What I'm saying to him is do not sign a super max contract this offseason Because it kind of takes the foot off of ownership. It takes the foot off the general manager's neck and you don't want to do that This offseason was embarrassing for the Milwaukee Bucks I'll be the first to admit it was embarrassing for the Milwaukee Bucks as good as they were as good as they Were on the regular season if you watch my podcast, you know, then me and my three other co-hosts Basically came out and said before they went against Miami. He we all picked the heat Because there were significant holes in the way the Milwaukee Bucks did things that didn't look well matched up against the Miami heat So I kind of want to go through the things about this offseason Last offseason and everything that I think the Bucks should be thinking or Yanis should be thinking about before he signs his contract Now I want to start off in the last offseason and talk about Malcolm Brogdon. Shout to Malcolm Brogdon Last offseason what they did was they sign and traded him to the Indiana Pacers and no matter what ownership of the general manager tells you The reason he was signed and traded is because they wanted to avoid the luxury tax Now I am far very very far away from a salary cap expert for real But I know that much no matter how they try to frame it The reason he was signed and traded away is because they wanted to avoid the luxury tax because there were a couple different Scenarios that they could have done this offseason or last offseason. They had his bird rights They could have just brought him back to keep Eric Bledsoe and Malcolm Brogdon as your two guards they could have brought him back or They could have decided on Malcolm Brogdon over over Eric Bledsoe I don't know how they decided that Eric Bledsoe was the point guard for Yanis Especially after the last offseason he had and especially when you consider the way Malcolm Brogdon had performed if you do not remember Malcolm Brogdon missed the first series in a half of the playoffs last season and he came back and The game I specifically remember was game three as a of the conference finals going against the the Toronto Raptors The Bucks are up 2-0 at this point They have a commanding lead on this series right now And the game three comes around and Nick nurse and the staff over there for the Toronto Raptors came up with the idea of Let's just build a wall Stan Van Gundy style. Let's just build a wall for Yanis Let's have everybody else in the team try to beat us and that was the game I think Yanis ended with like nine turnovers. He did not score the ball wheel He still did it. I think he had like 25 rebounds So we did everything that he could do without being effective on the offensive side of the ball Chris Middleton also had a bad game Eric Bledsoe also had a bad game But you know who kept them in that game and kept them two possessions away from going up 3-0 It was Malcolm Brogdon and that was kind of the consensus for the entire time of the playoffs other than game five Or is that game for other than game four? He didn't do anything I think he scored like three points in game four, but there was consensus that Malcolm Brogdon was their best guard Eric Bledsoe couldn't do anything as good as Eric Bledsoe is on the different side of the ball As good as he is in transition there are obvious holes for Eric Bledsoe's games and those holes Just don't line up well with your superstar player I don't know how you decide to keep Eric Bledsoe with Yanis instead of Malcolm Brogdon Considering how good Malcolm Brogdon is at getting to a spot creating for himself creating for others Eric Bledsoe doesn't have that Eric Bledsoe can't hit a jump shot Yanis can't hit a jump shot. We talked about a two-time MVP But we have to all agree that Yanis's jump shooting deficiency has to be surrounded by good shooters and Malcolm Brogdon was that the man was 50-40-90 You let a 50-40-90 club guy go for another point guard It's just it just blows my mind and again. There was a scenario where they were allowed to keep both. Let's run it back We were in the conference finals with this roster. Let's run it back. They had the money They gave Chris Middleton the max contract. Okay, Chris Middleton is good They brought George Hill back and that turned out to be really very good because George Hill is one of the better bench guards this season and they brought back Brooke Lopez But they also had the opportunity to bring back Malcolm Brogdon to run it back one more time and they decided not to And this is kind of a thing that I've been seeing with it's not necessarily smaller market teams But some of the owners don't want to hit that point where they're they're hitting the luxury tax If you do not remember and these aren't on the same playing field But it is relevant The reason why James Harden was traded from okc is because they didn't want to go into the luxury tax And now James Harden is one of the greatest players of all time and okc would never got a championship You hit that luxury tax with that okc team and oh my god They probably won a couple But they didn't want to do that and the Milwaukee Bucks didn't want to do that as well And then they got back in the sign of trade with Malcolm Brogdon They got back a first-round pick and I think that's this year's first-round pick and I think it's like 24 22nd something along those lines a Lot of people at the time and if I remember correctly after the sign of trade They just thought that the Bucks are gonna trade that first round pick from the Indiana Pacers to get somebody else to help them this season Okay, we let Malcolm Brogdon go We got this first round pick and though this first round pick is not gonna equate to Malcolm Brogdon's production It can get us another player on the team to do something but they kept it so this offseason that pick I need them to go out and hit now now the Bucks have like a weird history when it comes to drafting Dante de Vincenzo at 17 was really good Malcolm Brogdon the second round was really good But everything other than that. I think DJ Wilson was 17th Don maker was another shot in the dark let they tried to do with Yadis, but missed on that one So they've been hitting hit and miss when it comes to these draft picks And if you're going to keep this 24th or 22nd I don't remember which one it is You gotta keep that pick you have to draft somebody to come in and be an impactful player right off rip Because again, you don't want to get to the point Where you're paying somebody crazy it seems like but I just think that that was like One of the biggest downsides to the Milwaukee Bucks because Malcolm Brogdon would significantly help them in that Miami Heat series Now Yanis if you sign that Supermax contract to me that gives a little signal to the ownership to the general manager Hey, we got four years to figure this out We do not need to go in go hard on it and if I'm Yanis I should be like I want to win a championship now for the last two seasons We have been one of the best teams in the league and we haven't been able to get that the championship appearance If you don't sign a Supermax contract and you walk into the office like I want to win now those rumors of Eric Bledsoe, I mean those rumors of a Victor Lodipo those rumors of I've seen drew holiday They become a reality because the Milwaukee Bucks will have no choice But to make a trade to help you out now the last thing they want to do is to have you walk in free agency So they're gonna cater to you They're gonna kneel before you Yanis because you they know if they don't do something to help you now You're probably gonna go to those other teams and that puts them right back to where they were before you turn into a superstar So don't do it your team needs significant help Chris Middleton as good as he is He can't be the only shot creator on the floor for y'all. He can't he can't be that So that will be in a situation where you go get Vio Vio coming off the quad did look amazing But he could be a shot creator drew holiday could be a shot creator Whatever it may be there's room for improvement for the Bucks and if you sign a Supermax contract I don't know if they'll take the same initiative to make those trades I did a little research this is like one of the first times in a long time Why did research going into a video and it's only been five teams to win a championship without being in a Luxury tax two of them was Steph Curry teams because Steph Curry had all the ankle issues So they signed him and he wasn't even making a max contract He's making like 20 million dollars was the steal and then that also allowed them to bring in Kevin Durant So two of the championships were there one of them was when Dwayne Wade was still on his rookie contract One of them was a spurs and then the last one was the Lakers this season That's it every other team in recent history at least has been in a luxury tax to win a championship because if you want to Wade you're gonna have to spend the big bucks Spend the big bucks if we're talking about Milwaukee. That's all I really wanted to say Eric I would be I would be upset if Eric Bledsoe is a starting point guard for the Milwaukee Bucks next off season or next regular season I would be if this roster looks is the start of five looks the same. I would be upset as a Bucks fan Because we see that that the things that are hurting y'all. It's not something that will be fixed like that You know has some teams like we'll run it back. We're more experienced like like the Clippers will probably run it back without Montres Hero, they'll be more experienced more team chemistry. That won't really work for the Milwaukee Bucks You know, there are things legitimately wrong with the way they play basketball and the only way to fix that is to get More shock creators out there and to get more players that fit alongside Yanis I'm not I am not trying to discredit the front office because other than like the Malcolm Brogden thing I think they've done a pretty solid job building the team around Yanis I do there's a reason why you're the number one team in the regular season But once the playoffs come around and the scheme start coming out next season once you get to the playoffs You will see teams build a wall against Yanis you will and Now you need to surround the pieces to step it up Also, Yanis should be in that gym. You know I'm saying get that it's been getting better every single year The jump shot asked it been getting better. So you never know maybe next season I'm not saying knock down shooter, but respectable shooter at least you don't know All right, Bucks fans now the video is over you tell me do you agree with what I said? Do you disagree? You know, I can understand you disagree and you want him to sign a supermax because at least you know the supermax You'll probably be here for four more years But I think if you're a Bucks fan, you should be looking at hey, let's try to win a championship next year And you can't do that with the same roster if you enjoyed the video leave it a like I'll be back tomorrow. Peace
