00:00Spurs get the Aaron Fox and Jordan McLaughlin. The Kings get

00:04Zach Levine, Suzoko, two first round picks, three second round

00:08picks. The Bulls get Zach Collins, Trey Jones, Kevin

00:11Herter, and their own 2025 first rounder back from the Spurs. So

00:18there you go. Obviously, the main things here, Scotty, is you

00:21get Fox in San Antonio with Wenbin Yama, which is huge. I

00:25gotta tell you from the Sacramento standpoint, I like

00:29the I like the future assets. I believe one of those first round

00:33picks is actually even Charlotte's for this year. So it

00:36has a chance to be a pretty good pick. But putting Levine back

00:42with the Rosen like that didn't work in Chicago. I know that

00:46there's different pieces around him here in Sacramento. But I

00:50don't know, I just that didn't work over there. Why do you

00:52think it's going to work for them there? You know, here, I

00:54just didn't make a lot of sense to me.

00:56Well, I think that it's a really good point by you, Mike, that it

01:01didn't work in Chicago. But one thing is certain is that both of

01:04them can fill it up. Like, so, in some regard, like, you know,

01:09let's make it work. What's the problem? You know what I mean?

01:12Like, are you gonna sit around and cry? Or are you gonna fill

01:16it up? Because they can both score like, you know, DeRozan

01:19has 30, 35 point Knights, and Levine's averaging 24, four and

01:24a half, four and a half, and career highs in field goal

01:27percentage and three point percentage. He's been

01:30incredible. And like I said earlier, on the show, he did all

01:35of this, wanting to be traded without complaining. He did it

01:39all silently. He never said a bad word about anybody in

01:43Chicago. He just went out and filled it up every night and

01:47made his work stand and speak for itself, as opposed to Jimmy

01:53Cancer. And that's what I'm going to call him from now on

01:56Jimmy Cancer. I have never seen in the NBA in the longest time

02:01now. Look, you can say whatever you want about Zion doesn't

02:04play and B doesn't play. But I have never seen frankly, a

02:08malcontent like Butler. I really can you think of anyone that's

02:14been worse than him with what he's tried to pull off? And how

02:17many people he stepped on their necks? And how many people he

02:20has thrown under the bus? And how he's behaved about

02:24everything? He is in complete disregard for anybody, anywhere,

02:27any team, nothing is good enough for him. I am like to the point

02:31where it's like, screw this guy. I said to you before, send him

02:35out to the Mormons. See how he likes it there. Honestly, like I

02:39would send him to the worst team in the league and let him suffer.

02:43Honestly, this guy, who in the F does he think he is? Meanwhile,

02:47a guy like Zach Levine goes out every day and bust his ass never

02:50says a word, and he ends up winning. That's a really decent

02:54five. I'm not going to sit here and, you know, with Levine to

02:59Rosenmont, Murray and and Sabonis. Now the thing is, Mike,

03:03real quickly, is that you can have the big three and in

03:08Brooklyn, the big three in Phoenix, we've seen it all. But

03:10now you're talking about Oh, now that's a solid five. But the

03:14thing is, as you know, I guarantee you, it'll never be

03:19together. Those five it'll someone always gets hurt.

03:22Someone's always down. Someone's always out. And they never are

03:26all five playing at the same time. If they were, I think it

03:29would be a significant five. But something always happens that

03:33it's either three and a five or four to five. It's never all

03:36five at the same time. It never works out. Something happens

03:39always. I mean, proof's in the pudding. It never worked in

03:44Brooklyn. It's not working in Phoenix. They're ready to break

03:47out up like a high school marriage. And that's all there

03:51is to it.
