 What's the word y'all welcome back to Kenny for real I was hoping that this day was going to come where I could come in here and talk about drew holiday for 10 minutes straight and people will listen to me do it if you did not know today's been a day of NBA rumors Everything it started off with Shams this morning saying that the New Orleans Pelicans are openly discussing star drew holiday and trade talks And several contending teams are pursuing Bomb that's a that's a bomb if you ask me as a super drew holiday fan Not only just that Ryan Rossell, oh apparently got some inside news and he's talking about Gordon Hayward Apparently the worst kept secret in the NBA is that Devin Berger wants out Which doesn't really make sense because if it was the worst kept secret why the hell am I just hearing about it now? I don't believe that to be true I think Devin Booker likes Phoenix and they're going to the places he wants to be now They just hit the best success of his career you trying to tell me he wants out now out of all times doesn't seem like it But back on subject of drew holiday pieces leave a like subscribe if you're new we're on the road to 300,000 I'm like 3,000 away and if you're new around here, you like basketball right and we talk about that around here Jew holiday is the name that I'm super happy is in trade rumors Pelicans fans That doesn't mean I don't like him on your team or whatever But he's getting to that point of his career where you're like man I want to see him play like really really meaningful basketball again And though the pelicans are one of those teams that should be fighting for a playoff spot next year I want to see drew holiday can be for a championship not just can be for a playoff spot If I'm making a list of guards in the NBA that I want to see when Chris Paul is number one my colleagues probably number two and then drew holiday is right there now He said that contending teams are pursuing which makes a lot of sense. He could be that miss in peace I want to quickly look at his his contract if I'm not mistaken He's got one extra year attached to it Which would be a plus to whatever team he has traded to like look at me salaries and it is over with oh He's got a player option for 2021 for 27 million. You know what? He might be taking that he might be taking a 11-year pro. So drew holiday is one of my favorite players in the league Everybody that talks about drew holiday raves about him About his defense, you know, I've talked to many NBA players and I've heard many NBA players talking about like I think it was Kevin Durant on JJ Reddick's show when they both talked about how good of a defender drew holiday was I talked to like I talked to John Wall and John Wall admitted that drew holidays one of the best defenders in the league So though he has only had a couple all defensive appearances to to be exact He's one of those players that is an elite defender per on the perimeter and he plays on then off the ball So so very well. This year was a good year for Jew holiday But the year before was a great year for Jew holiday and that's just how it's been You remember the playoff series where they were the underdog and they came out and swept the Portland Trailblazers Now that was a few years ago, but he still puts out that total Production on the defensive side of the ball. Do you remember Damian Lillidan CJ? How tough they had at that entire series between Rhonda and drew Joe holiday defending them It was really really rough and those are the type of moments I need to see from Jew holiday again and he can have those moments on these contended teams now I'm not gonna be a guy That's gonna come out here and draw up trades for you because as a fan of drew I may value him a little bit more than the average general manager again He's you're getting him for a guaranteed one year and maybe a player option depending how things go So I'm not gonna draw up trades But there are specific teams that I think he would work very well on again We're talking about any lead defender who can play on and off the ball has the ability to be your lead guard But also has the ability to be like I'm chilling you let me know you need a bucket because I could get you that But I'll just chill on the offensive side of the ball So the number one team and that's this is what I replied to Shams just tweet and let me see how many how many likes that My response got a thousand likes. I'll take that I said that the Brooklyn nets are the perfect fit now the Brooklyn nets have two guys and Kevin Arant and Carrie Irvin who aren't known for their defense though Kevin Arant has been better over the last couple years They could use a stopper. We're talking about a guard stopper talking about a wing stopper He can do that and the main problem with this Brooklyn net team and the reason why they're going out then trying to make trades It's because Spencer Denwoodie is because Keras Laver as good as they are are ball dominant players and Drew Holiday will come in and allow Carrie Irvin to be his lead point guard and allow Kevin Arant to be a lead ball handler as well and still be as productive at He is thinking about it This season he ever is 19 Six and a half assists and five rebounds and that is while also Brandon Ingram was blossoming into an all-star Now these videos are usually uncut but in the middle of my senses my boy Pierre is in discord talking out loud and my mic My mic wasn't muted. Uh, whatever. Anyway, I don't know where I was go Oh, yes, so he can he can play very well alongside guys that are blossoming as well I mean he put up good numbers once Zion came back. It's just just the way it is So the Brooklyn that should be a team and and I'm not just gonna put out teams like oh, you feel well here I I'm gonna put out teams that I think also have the assets again I'm not gonna draw the trade because I don't know what the trade will look like But you can't tell me that the Pelicans wouldn't be interested in Keras You can tell me that they wouldn't be interested in Spencer Denwoodie Yeah, I'm saying so they do have the assets to potentially pull off that trade And I think he'll be a match made in heaven as as good as as much as you would want to have Bradley Bill as a third player in Brooklyn That's unrealistic and a guy like Drew Holly is not on Bradley Bill's tier, but he's right below it You know, he's right below it and actually gives the Brooklyn that's more of what they actually need and that is perimeter defense The next team I had on my list is the Nuggets now This is something that has been rumored for over a year now The Nuggets do have the assets because they have players like Bobo because they have Michael Porter Jr Because they have they have Gary Harris's contract. They will have assets to potentially I'm off my game This is why I usually record these videos very early in the day because now the dogs want to be rowdy So they do have the assets to potentially pull off the trade in a very similar situation, right? We don't know if Jamal Murray is it actually as good of a hoop as he was in the bubble But if he is you have alongside him a defensive guard, which you already had and and Gary Harris, but time six I like you Gary Harris, but we have to all admit that your holiday would be Significantly better as a wing player or as a backcourt mate with Jamal Murray because he is more of an offensive Thright on top of it. So that would be team number two and these are also contending teams shout out to shams That's what he said number three will be Milwaukee We actually talked about this in a video when it came to the Yanis video. I dropped a couple days ago They would have some assets to get it done I don't know if it's a perfect fit, but it would work because Talent is something that they just they just need and he can create his own shot I don't know if it'll work just because Milwaukee would be kind of scared to give up like future draft picks for something Like there's just because you don't know 100% if Yanis wants to resign even though There was also a rumor that broke today that Yanis is expected to sign that super max contract next next week So my video didn't really get to him, which is fine I didn't expect it to but if he does sign a super max contract shout out to you Yanis Congratulations on your paycheck. The next team the Miami heat he fans have this thing and this is not a knock on Amir anything. I love he fans baby photoshop and everybody in a jersey and and drew holiday Doesn't look good in the Miami heat jerseys. I just got to say it I just got to say it now the real problem with them is it's something I said in yesterday's video. We're like you don't know What to give up if I'm the pelicans, I'm not accepting Kendrick none No, you're gonna have to throw me Tyler hero and his rumors that they might be willing to do that And if they're willing to do that Tyler hero in that backcourt if Lonzo Balger point guard of future I got like Tyler hero would be great and he fits the timeline, but it's about Miami Will they be willing to get rid of Tyler hero for a one guarantee year and maybe two It's something that I wouldn't like to make the decision on but they got Pat Riley one the best in the game one the best ever Do it in that position so he'll make the right decision if that's giving away Tyler hero It'll probably be the right decision because that's just what Pat Riley does the next team is he 76ers? Bring her back. You know saying one time all-star when he wasn't Philly last and the reason I put them in I'm not drawing up this trade or anything But our wharf will be the type of center that you would like a long-sized. I am Williamson now You don't want to be the team probably pan Al wharf for in two years, but I'm just saying there may be something to do here It's not just a strong not proposing a straight up one for one, but Al wharf for plus boom Come maybe get the job. Maybe it's Al wharf and job No, you don't give up Al wharf and Josh for just saying but Josh We're just sending you how they're kind of redundant even though your holiday is significantly better But you give what I'm saying they would have to be Al wharf it and in order to get drew holiday back to Philly But I think it would be I would think it would be a fit the other team now those are my contenders I don't know if Philly really fits into that contender role right now But another team that I think will be interesting is the Atlanta Hawks It has been rumored for the past week that they are willing to throw in that sixth overall pick They're rumored to be throwing willing to throw in that sixth overall pick to get a wing that can help them compete for a playoff spot and Drew holiday would be exactly that now. I'm not saying the sixth overall pick is enough You might have to throw up a little bit more considering this draft class can't guarantee you something great at six But there might be a deal do how valuable it's Kevin Herter to the Atlanta Hawks fans It's actually a question me in the homies hand on our podcast the other day as well How valuable is Kevin Herter to the Atlanta Hawks specifically because I think for the Pelicans He will be extremely valuable for what they need as far as being a guy that could come in create his own shot Hit the three-pointer and actually really underrated playmaker alongside Lonzo ball He would be the perfect fit. How does he pair well with with trade young for the future is the real question Both of them probably be a negatives on the defensive side of the ball It's something they would have to think about but I believe that the Pelicans will look at a guy like Kevin Herter and be like We like that we like that and that would be my deal I don't know if it's six and Kevin Herter or Kevin Herter or something else or six and something else But those would be the two things I will be looking at if I'm the Pelicans if I'm trading drew holiday to the Atlanta Hawks now The other problem with it is Joe holiday would be in a similar situation where he's playing for a team competed for a playoff spot instead of playing for a team competed for a championship, and I don't know if you holiday at 30 years old is gonna be like yeah, let me go to a team that with me on it might be a 70 you know I think it'd be hard to give intimate to make that trait or maybe you trade for him and then he opts out because he Really really really wants to get that championship and then the last team Something a fan asked to me and I'm asking y'all because obviously all y'all ain't on Twitter to have this discussion with me the sons How does that fit work y'all know early in his career drew holiday was a point guard like a true true point guard And that was actually when he was an all-star Between him and Daven Booker. You're going to get great playmaking between the both of them You have a draft pick this year You have Kelly Ubrey who don't really fit as of right now. I Don't know. I think I think it would be interesting. That's just another team That's in my brain, and and I think it could be interesting, but that's it That's it drew holiday. I hope that he has moved this offseason I think it would be great for him and my Pelicans drew holiday shirt, which I couldn't find for today's video Have to be hung in a Rafters rafters or raptors Rafters and then the new drew holiday shirt whether it be with Brooklyn or wherever has to be bought Let me know what you think. Oh, man a 10 minute video about you holiday. That's amazing. All right I see y'all tomorrow as you can see that's three days in a row and Kenny for real That's unheard of I'll be back tomorrow probably because there's so much so much more news to come out and More topics to talk about
