 Yo, it's good everyone, Nick Smith is back. We're up in the NBA draft, which is pretty cool. And I'm pretty excited. And hopefully, I really hope that the mic actually records, because like, you guys know that the last couple of episodes, the mic has just not been working. It just cuts out, and it's kind of annoying. But I guess this might be your first glance at the new uniforms, and they are pretty dope. Look at these new uniforms right here. I'm proud, right? I'm proud of the new uniforms. And number one, one guy was telling me that I challenged Miles Turner's number. I don't even know that I challenged Miles Turner's number. So let's change it back to how it was. And to be honest, I don't even know what his number is. So I'm going to have to go on my phone right now. Type out what is Miles Turner's number right here. So Miles Turner, he rocks number 33. I don't know why he's wearing number 2. So let me change it back to 30s. No, who is 33? Who is 33? Danny Granger is 33. That's why he was... All right, okay. So let me change Danny Granger's number. And look at those new uniforms. They're going to look dope when I play with them. I can't wait to play with them. But yeah, Danny Granger will give Danny Granger number 32. And then the boy, Miles Turner, he can go back to 33. All right, we'll do that. Cause you know, Miles Turner, he wears number 33. It's disrespectful as Stephen A. Smith would say to not give him his real number. So yeah, he can go back to number 33. It only took me a goddamn year to realize it, but he's a 33 now. All right, so we're in a bit of a dilemma. We're a little bit of a... Would I like to speak some English? We're in a little bit of a dilemma right now because we got Derek Rose, Kenna Fareed. All right, these guys soak up our cat space. Like crazy. And the guys that are going into the draft, I'm into a free agency, they're good. Like this year is probably one of the best years in free agency in a long time. Because in 2K, in 2016, I reckon majority of the teams are gonna sign their players. They're gonna sign, you know, Kevin Durant, and they're gonna sign all these guys. And so, if I go to... Can I go to free agency? I don't even know if I can. Okay, where do I go right now? Pretty much. All I'm trying to say is that we have guys like Drummond, DeRozan, Dwight Howard, we have LeBron, we've got Dwayne Wade, Hassan Weiss, and all these good plays in free agency. And if I wanna get any one of those guys, I gotta trade Kenneth or DeRoz. So, at the start, once I trade Kenneth, cause I'm definitely gonna trade Kenneth, I've already kinda made it up in my mind. Let's hop into the draft right now. I've already made it up in my mind that I'm gonna trade Kenneth Reid. So once I do, I don't want you guys in the conversation to be like, that was the stupidest trade ever. Cause what I wanna do is free up CatSpace for free agency. Not make the best trade on draft night to get a good draft pick if you know what I'm trying to say. So you'll see what I'm trying to do once we hop into free agency. But what pick do we have right here? We've got 13 and 26. Okay, so let's do what we can work with right now. We'll see what we can get for Kenneth Reid. And I'm glad my PS4 just suddenly just went quiet. Like I don't know if you were hearing that before, but it was super loud. It's got a little bit quiet right now. So we can get pick 18. And to be honest, is that a bad pick? Pick 18. And so pretty much we get pick 18 and we free up 38 million for three years. Honestly, this is the kind of trade I wanna go for. But maybe, cause if I get pick 18 and I pair that pick up with pick 13 and pick 20, I reckon I can get a pretty good pick. Parent teaming up, you know, all those picks. So I'll keep looking. I have a look at what I can get for D-Rose right here as well. But I do like Derrick Rose. We can get Mike Conley though. I mean, if we're looking at cap space, this isn't bad. This is not bad at all. Nine, 10, so he's around $10 million a year. He's a decent shooter, better than Derrick Rose. He doesn't attack the hoop as well as Derrick Rose. He's passing is probably better than D-Rose and his defense is definitely better than Derrick Rose. His athleticism isn't as good, but it's not even that bad. Mike Conley, I could go after. Then I could go after a young player like Justice Winslow out of the Miami Heat. Or Tobias Harris, who's also on a pretty big contract though. The thing is, if I go after somebody like Mike Conley, right, I love playing with Derrick Rose. Like, I love playing with Derrick Rose. It's just his salary is huge. You know what, I might trade. How about I trade him and then I get him a couple of years from now or even just next year, once free agency's done. Because if I wanna be good, I gotta sacrifice getting rid of Derrick Rose, unfortunately. Well, first I'll just trade Kenna Fareed. First I'll trade Kenna Fareed. All right, that's probably the main thing. Pick 19 and KJ McDaniels. That's better than the pick that, I mean, I can get Kelly Ubrey, but he's 69 overall, not as good. But I think I'll take this trade right here. We get a decent player in KJ McDaniels. He's not that bad. Like, I like KJ McDaniels. He can shoot the three a little bit. He's a great defensive player and he's very athletic. 80 driving dunk. You know, on World Defenses out of 70, which I think is a little underrated, but his block is at 81 for a shooting guard, 56 for a six shooting guard with 84 shot contest, 88 speed for a shooting guard, and pick 19. Yeah, I like Kenneth, but he averaged 12 points, 9.5 rebounds, which is still good. It's almost averaging a double-double, but he just lacks in a guy that almost averages a double-double. Should not be worth this much, right? If you know what I mean, like, I can get a player that almost averages a double-double for a lot less than that. In fact, I probably have one on this team. Jordan Hill. What does he average? Seven points and 9.5 rebounds. So he averages the rebounding aspect, not as high in the points, but he definitely can, I think, if I improve him, because he has done it before. Like, he averaged 12 points right there, almost 10 right there. It's just a minute, I guess it's a minute thing, but all I'm trying to say is, a guy that almost averages a double-double isn't worth this contract. So he's gone from Denver to Indiana, and now to Charlotte. There you go, right there. So now, we have pick 13, pick 19, and pick 26. I wanna see if we can join these picks up together, see what we can get. Not great. Every Bradley, you know, I'd rather hold on to these. But how about DeRose, pick 19, and 13? Justice Winslow. As a heat fan, I like Justice Winslow, but, wow, wow, wow. See this, pick 16, pick 10. I gotta look at the picks. This is pretty crazy right here. Eric Bledsoe, and pick nine. Surely I have to take this trade right here. And why do I like DeRose? Because of his athleticism. Eric Bledsoe has that athletic ability, like DeRose, he can shoot a lot better than DeRose. He's, you know, lay up his 80, but it should be higher. They underrated his dunk, they underestimated his dunking ability. And when you talk about a guy that just went out with injury, you talk about DeRose having leg injuries. Eric Bledsoe, he got a leg injury right now. Ombal defense is at an 87. I have to take this trade. I have to take, like, I don't understand. Contract's better. Player is better in this my GM series. And the reason why I like DeRose is because I can play well with him. But I can play well with Eric Bledsoe because he pretty much does the same things, but better, if you know what I mean. I don't wanna give up Georgia, that's the thing. Yeah, I'll just take the original, actually, what if I just gave, what if I did this? Okay, I'll just take the original trade. Eric Bledsoe for DeRose, we give up three first round picks, but we acquire pick nine in this draft. I'll take it, I'll take it, I'll take that, all right. I'll take that, it's, to me, I reckon this draft has been a success. We will see what Eric Bledsoe is worth just because I wanna have a look. And I'm definitely happy I got Eric Bledsoe, unless we, unless pick nine and Eric Bledsoe gives us pick number six. Oh man, but I mean, what about James Young and this? If I can get pick eight or even better, I will do that, pick 13, pick 11, pick 18. I know there are some pretty good trade offers, but I'll just see, I know that Ben Simmons is gonna go first, like he has to go first. He's gonna go to the Toronto Raptors, especially because they might be losing Demarda Rosen. He can fill in for that Demarda Rosen. He's a small forward, powerful forward, even though some people think he's a powerful and small forward. They take Scala, Bruce, yeah, what the? Okay, so maybe I go after the second pick. Yo, if I can get Ben Simmons, that'd be insane. Should I propose a trade? Should I propose a trade? I don't know, man. I don't know. Eric Bledsoe for Ben Simmons, would I do that? Because you gotta realize Ben Simmons is an 80 overall, and he's only like 18 or 19 years old. But, I could probably do this trade and he'll go through. But what if he falls, what if he falls to number three or something? I know he's not, but I don't know, man, I just, I'm not gonna get Ben Simmons, you know? It's kind of pointless even me trying to go after Ben Simmons, so. I'll just see who goes, there he is, Ben Simmons. I knew he was gonna go somewhere. The reason why I love him so much, number one, he's Australian. Number two, he's a beast. And he's a 79, so pretty much an 80 overall. And he's 19 years old, that's just crazy. But next year, we're gonna get Thonmaker in the draft. Like in 2017, Thonmaker is eligible to go in the draft. So that's pretty crazy. I hope you don't take, ah, I want a Jalen Brown, but I guess we'll keep Simmons through the draft, see who goes where. Brandon Ingram out of Duke. I mean, I like Brandon Ingram, Diamond Stone, Dragonbender, and now who's making a trade? The 76th to trade Dragonbender for pick seven, and that guy, okay? Cool. Look how many draft picks the 76ers have. God damn, did you guys see that? They got six, seven. Oh wow, we got 20 trade offers? Wow, they got six, seven, 11. That's pretty crazy. Um, all right. I'll see who's up on the board and who people want us to buy. One of the Otis Gold buddy, Henry Ellenson. Never heard of that guy. Jack D'Alo, I heard of this guy. I don't know how to say his name, but I heard of him. Jack D'Alo, I think he's out of, where is he from? I heard of him before. It's one of the big market colleges. I know that. Nigel Hayes. So pretty much they're all telling me I should go after a power forward. All of them want me to go after a power forward, and I mean, you can understand why. We traded Kenneth Fareed, so it's time to go after a power forward. So Henry Ellenson, we'll take a look at this guy. He's a 72 overall. He can stretch the floor a little bit. What do I need? What do I need? Team needs right here. So I do need a power forward, and people were telling me if I switch Miles Turner's position up to a power forward, he goes up in overall. But I kinda want him to be a center because that's where he plays in real life. So I'm sorry if this episode goes on for a long time as well. I apologize, but I do wanna make this 100% awesome for you guys, if that makes any sense. Demetrius Jackson, we just got a point guard, so I'm not looking at him. Damian Jones, he is a center. We don't need a center, so yeah. Where is he from? I know he's from a big market school. Duke, I think? Kansas, that's right, Kansas, yeah. All right, so he's not a great offense to play. He's a good inside presence, 77 close. Standing laps are 78, which is decent. 75 standing dunk. Rebounding 80, 77, so pretty much both 80, which is good for a rookie, that's pretty good. Block is at a 74 and the shot contains an 88. Hustle's at 99. This guy might be the guy to go for because he's a big man that can really put in that work and we need a big man. And once he rated 72, 72, 74, wow. Demetrius Jackson is rated a 74, but we don't really, 88 driving dunk dunk, whew. You know I love my point guards that can throw it down, but we just acquired Eric Bledsoe, so. I'm gonna take the guy, I can't even say his name right, check Diallo. Check Diallo, I don't know, but let me take this guy right here. Welcome to the Indiana Pacers, buddy. Welcome to the Indiana Pacers. We're gonna team him up with a few guys and as of now he's starting, I guess, but you never know in free agency. Yeah, you never know in free agency, all right. Now, Monta Ellis gets traded again. This guy just keeps getting traded. He went from someone's home. I'll be back. All right, I'm back. I don't even know where I was up to, what I was doing, but I'll get rid of the second, no, first was found for a second round pick. Right. Well, pretty much I don't really need to make any trades, I guess. I mean, young, McDaniels. Maybe I'll get rid of young because I've got George Hill and Eric Bledsoe, so I don't really need a third string point guard that might complain, but if I don't get anything for him, then I'll just keep him. I mean, I'll just keep him. I'll keep young. I can get pick 24, though. To be honest, pick 24 might be worth. No, I'll just keep young. He's an Indiana Pacer guy. I'll keep young. You know, I kept a lot of Indiana Pacer guys when I think about Paul George, C.J. Miles, George Hill, Miles Turner, Joseph Young and McCain Christmas. That's pretty solid for me because, you know, I like to make trades, trades, trade, trade, trade, trade, trade, trade, trade. But I kept all these guys. The only guys that I got is K.J. McDaniels in this draft and Eric Bledsoe. That's solid for me, that is solid. And I thought I'd put some accessories on Eric Bledsoe and make him look cooler, but those jerseys, man, I'm happy with the jerseys I made. Let's seem to the end because we don't need to make any more trades. I'm happy with that. We lost Kenneth D. Rose, acquired a nice power forward and checked D'Ala, whatever his name is, and Eric Bledsoe, I'm happy with that. I'm 100% happy with that. And it does give us cat space to sign a good free agent and look at Ben Simmons. This man is just, he's a monster. 19 years old. Jaylen Brown, I like Jaylen Brown as well. Very athletic. But in this game, not too athletic actually. And where's our guy? Where's our guy? He is, what pick, nine pick? We've got the ninth, ninth, ninth, right here. 72 overall. So I'll take that. And where did he drop to? No way. No way, wait, wait, hold up, hold up. Check D'Ala. He dropped all the way down to 13. Demetrius Jackson dropped down to 13. So we actually traded this pick to the Phoenix Sun. So we gave him Demetrius Jackson. They gave us, check D'Ala. But then they also, the Suns also got from us, Malik Pope. So I don't know what he does. He might be pretty good. And they also got Tyler Eulis from us as well, pretty much. But we got Eric Bledsoe and the boy. The boy, check D'Ala. I don't even know if I'm, comment down below if I'm saying his name right. Cause honestly, I don't know. I'm gonna have to do some research. But he sounds like he has like a French name. I don't know, I don't know. But how do I, all right. Rookie signings, gimme this guy. I love this guy. Like, I like his name. I like his arm sleeves. I like, this guy seems pretty cool. So if you guys enjoyed the video, if you did, smash that like button. Comment down below what you thought of me acquiring Eric Bledsoe trading Kenneth by getting check D'Ala, which means now, if we go to the player contracts, we got Paul George, you know, obviously on a pretty big contract. But then we got Eric Bledsoe, who's more than Kenneth. But when you combine Kenneth and Derek Rose together, he's pretty cheap. Which means once you combine Kenneth and Derek Rose, now you can get Eric Bledsoe and Hassan or Eric Bledsoe and Damar or Eric Bledsoe and Dwight or someone of that nature in free agency. Eric Bledsoe or Drummond, I don't know. So we're gonna get a big three hopefully in the free agency. But yeah, I hope you guys enjoyed the video. If you did, smash that like button, subscribe if you're new, and I'll catch you on the next one. Peace.
