00:00All right, so what about this talk of, I mean, I almost fell over today,

00:05of this, you know, KD and Giannis to the Knicks.

00:11Like, that's not happening.

00:13Both of those guys coming to the Knicks and, like, what?

00:15They said that they're going to trade Cat to the Suns for KD

00:19because he's got, like, an expiring contract or something.

00:22Do you believe all this nonsense?

00:25No, I don't.

00:26Listen, Giannis kind of came on today a little bit

00:28and said how much he loves Milwaukee.

00:30You know, his kids were born there.

00:32He's loyal to there.

00:33Do I think KD is coming?

00:37That's probably more likely.

00:39You know, because when you line up the teams that are looking at KD,

00:42number one, why would you send him to Houston?

00:45Why would you send him to San Antonio?

00:47Those teams are just, like, getting into their win-now, you know, championship window.

00:55The Knicks think they're one scorer, one sniper away.

00:59So, to me, KD has more legs.

01:02He's a money sniper.

01:03He's a money sniper, you know.

01:05So, that has more legs, to me, is KD going to the Knicks.

01:10We'll see what happens.

01:11Is he better than what they had with Brunson and Kat?

01:18Would you rather have Brunson with old man Durant?

01:23Even though he can fill it up from downtown and he's, you know, automatic 25 a night,

01:30no questions asked.

01:32But he's old and, you know, he has that month off every year with his calf.

01:36That's the issue.

01:37It's the month off and how they're going to use him.

01:40If you're telling me, I'm going to just say my championship window is in 26 and in 27,

01:49yes, because here's what KD is good at.

01:52You know this, Pharrell, you don't got to run ISO ball for him.

01:56You can have him come off stuff, you know, catch, boom, catch, jab, windrable, pull up.

02:01It's very clean with Durant.

02:03So, he's also a bail you out of the shot clock kind of guy.

02:07And I think that will make sense because I think the Knicks need someone else on the perimeter that can go get a bucket.

02:15Like, OG, even though he looked good in the playoffs, he doesn't go get you a bucket at 101 late clock, five, six seconds left.

02:22Bridges can't do it.

02:23No one else can do it.

02:25So, to me, yeah, you can do that.

02:26And then at the end of the day, you just go Bridges at the two, OG at the three, or Durant 3-4 with OG,

02:34and Mitchell Robinson at the five, and you bring Josh Hart off the bench,

02:37where I think he actually is better coming off the bench than in his starting lineup.

02:40And then at the end of the day, I think he's better coming off the bench.
