00:00Gun Sportsman-like Power Rankings, brought to you by SoFi.

00:04Get your money right, Freddie C.

00:06We've had a fast and furious start to NBA free agency over the last 48 hours.

00:10Hard to hit all of the moves, but I did America a favor by filtering out

00:16the best of the best, the top five new faces, well, old faces, in new places.

00:22So that's what we got.

00:24Candy Power Rankings this week, top five NBA faces in new places.

00:27Now, we got to keep in mind that I don't have any rookies on this list, all right?

00:32So it's all veteran players when it comes to my Power Rankings this week.

00:37Top five NBA faces in new places.

00:41Pat Costello, if you will.

00:42Number five.

00:44Nikhil Alexander-Walker.

00:46He's with the Atlanta Hawks.

00:47Alexander-Walker gives Atlanta a playmaking wing who can knock down three-pointers

00:51and provide another elite perimeter defender.

00:53This puts Atlanta in position to make a big leap in the East.

00:58He pairs nicely with Dyson Daniels and can give Quinn Snyder more optionality with his lineups.

01:03Another player that can initiate offense.

01:05They can potentially play Trey Young off the ball more,

01:09and that's a good thing for Trey Young in terms of being able to free him up

01:12to do what he does best, which is score the basketball.

01:15Atlanta is trying to corner the market with dominant on-ball defenders

01:19with position versatility, Jalen Johnson, Zachary Rishishay, Dyson Daniels,

01:24all guys 6'8 or above.

01:26And then, of course, the aforementioned Nikhil Alexander-Walker.

01:29All of those guys can defend one through four.

01:32And with the Christoph Porzingis trade, they add another whim protector

01:36to go along with the bigs that they already have.

01:39It sounds a lot like what we saw from OKC

01:42in terms of what Atlanta is building defensively.

01:47Ready, C?

01:48I hear you.

01:50I just worry about the injury issue with Christoph Porzingis

01:53because whatever was ailing him last year

01:56was really debilitating in that series versus the New York Knicks.

02:00But you're right.

02:01They got those long-wing defenders that can cause a lot of problems.

02:05And if Quinn Snyder can put this together as a coach

02:08because Trey Young has no more excuses,

02:10they put that kind of team around him

02:12that should be the kind of team he should be expecting

02:14that could have a deep run in Eastern Conference playoffs next year.

02:17Well, think about it.

02:18They still got Onyeka Okungwu,

02:20and they drafted Asa Newell in the first round this year too.

02:23So they're hedging a little bit with the Christoph Porzingis bit,

02:26but from all reports is that he's going to be healthy.

02:30He's playing Euroball this summer.

02:31So I think you'll get a different version of KP

02:34than what we saw or didn't see in the playoffs in Boston last year.

02:37Next, number four, we have Desmond Bain to the Orlando Magic.

02:45Bain addresses a major need for the Magic who were desperate for shooting.

02:49They finished last in three-point field goal percentage

02:51and last in catch-and-shoot three-point percentage.

02:55Bain is 50-40-90 and a solid defender.

02:58He's one of three NBA players with 800 made three-pointers

03:01on 40% three-point shooting since entering the league in 2020,

03:06and he has shot 43.2% on catch-and-shoot threes in the past five years,

03:11which is the third-best rate among players with at least 1,000 attempts.

03:16Bain, who turns 27 next week,

03:18fits the timetable of Orlando's core of Bankero, Jalen Suggs, and Franz Wagner.

03:24All of those guys are in their early 20s,

03:26and that's better in terms of the fit and age timeline.

03:31It's better than anybody else Orlando could have gone after

03:34to fit that particular need.

03:36This is an organization that sees an opportunity in the East

03:39with all of the injuries to the top teams,

03:40and they're going for it.

03:42Freddie C., your thoughts.

03:43I love what you said about Desmond Bain

03:45because he fits what they did not have,

03:47that shooter that can knock down shots,

03:48and the guy who can also defend at the other end.

03:50If Jalen Suggs can stay healthy, he can be that terrific point guard

03:53that'll be able to get into the teeth of the defense

03:55and find him on the relocation on the three-point line,

03:58but also keep an eye on Jace Richardson.

04:00I love that draft choice they got out of Michigan State

04:03that can be that combo guard as well.

04:04They can go three guards at times,

04:06but Desmond Bain, the way he can do it at both ends of the floor,

04:09yeah, I like that piece the Orlando match

04:11we're able to pick up to make them more of a player

04:13in the Eastern Conference.

04:15Next.

04:16Number three.

04:17Cam Johnson to the Denver Nuggets.

04:20Look out now.

04:20Listen, this is a massive move for the Denver Nuggets front office.

04:23Huge when it comes to roster building.

04:26Michael Porter Jr. was owed $78 million over the next two seasons,

04:30and Johnson is due $44 million in that same time frame.

04:34For $17 million less per season,

04:37Johnson is a similar on-court fit to Michael Porter Jr.

04:40and a much better defender.

04:42The move takes the Nuggets away from the second apron

04:44and now gives them a lot of breathing room

04:46for fleshing out what was a top-heavy roster

04:49over the last two seasons.

04:51Remember, Jokic was critical about the team's depth or lack thereof.

04:56This trade allowed for the subsequent moves

04:58of adding Jonas Valanciunas, Tim Hardaway Jr.,

05:02and bringing back Bruce Brown.

05:03The 2032 first-round pick that's going back to Brooklyn

05:07will likely sting in the post-Jokic era in Denver,

05:09but that's a tomorrow problem.

05:11I love Cam Johnson fitting in as one of the starters for the Denver Nuggets.

05:18His best ability is availability,

05:21which is something you cannot say about Michael Porter Jr.,

05:23either when he was on the court

05:24or being injured off the basketball court.

05:26This looks very similar to the Nuggets team

05:29that won the NBA championship,

05:30where you got guys that can defend.

05:33You got a Christian Brown together with Cameron Johnson.

05:35They're going to play for each other extremely well.

05:37You're right about Valanciunas.

05:38That's an underrated pickup signing by the Nuggets,

05:40but now you got a backup center who's had playoff experience

05:43and can really anchor your front line

05:45when Jokic is on the bench.

05:46But yeah, Cameron Johnson being available,

05:48that's the best ability that they did not see in a lot

05:50in the last couple of years from Michael Porter.

05:52These are the Candy Power Rankings,

05:54top five NBA faces in new places.

05:57Cam, can we get the number two?

05:59Number two.

06:01Miles Turner.

06:02Mm-mm.

06:03The Milwaukee Bucks.

06:04Mm-mm.

06:06Miles Turner is one of the best 3 and D bigs in the NBA.

06:08Turner shot 39.6% from three last season,

06:12totaling 156 makes from deep to go along with 144 blocks.

06:16Wasn't great in the postseason,

06:18only hit 13 of his last 50 from three,

06:20but he basically slots into that role

06:22that Brooke Lopez occupied,

06:24and if we're keeping it a buck,

06:26he's an upgrade over what Lopez has been

06:28over the past couple of seasons.

06:30But this move is all about convincing Giannis

06:32to stay in Milwaukee.

06:34The move makes that a more viable option

06:38to compete now and into the future.

06:41They brought back Torian Prince,

06:43Bobby Porters, Kevin Porter Jr.,

06:45and Gary Trent Jr.

06:46not hard to imagine this team being top six in the East

06:50and going on a deep playoff run.

06:52And you weaken a rival in the Indiana Pacers

06:55by taking away their guy,

06:57because now, how's Indiana going to play?

07:00Not just without Tyrese Halliburton,

07:02but also a Miles Turner,

07:03who was the longest tenured player

07:05with the Indiana Pacers.

07:07Guys like that,

07:07even though he may not be Kareem Abdul-Jabbar,

07:09but he was the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the Pacers,

07:11that's going to be very hard to replace

07:12in the way that they play,

07:13the way they want to get up and down the court.

07:15So, yeah, it's a great move for Milwaukee,

07:16but it's an awful move for the Indiana Pacers

07:18losing him for that kind of scratch

07:20that he's going to get paid

07:21by the Milwaukee Bucks over four years.

07:23Well, here's the thing.

07:24If you're in the Pacers,

07:24do you want to go into luxury tax

07:26for the first time in the last 20 years

07:27with a team that can't win

07:28because of the Halliburton injury?

07:29Yeah, that's fair.

07:30Answer is probably not.

07:31Nope.

07:32Which makes it make sense

07:33to let the door open for Miles Turner to walk.

07:36I think it's a good move for both sides, oddly enough.

07:39Good people on both sides

07:40when it comes to the Miles Turner

07:42to the Milwaukee Bucks transaction.

07:46Next.

07:47Number one.

07:48Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets.

07:51Absolutely.

07:52Houston, we have liftoff.

07:54Durant is exactly what Houston needs.

07:56The Rockets rank 24th in effective field goal percentage

07:58and 27th in points per direct isolation.

08:02Put simply, they needed shooting

08:03and they needed a closer.

08:05And they added a two-time champion

08:07that is the best bucket getter

08:08over the last two decades in the NBA.

08:10According to ESPN Bet,

08:12Houston has the second-shortest odds

08:13behind OKC to win the title.

08:15The Rockets now check every box for a team

08:18that has a chance to win it all.

08:20Great coach, outstanding depth,

08:21top-end talent,

08:22and championship experience in that locker room.

08:25So there it is.

08:26The Kennedy Power Rankings.

08:28Top five NBA faces in new places

08:30off of free agency the first two days.

08:33We got number one, Kevin Durant

08:34to the Houston Rockets.

08:35Number two, Miles Turner

08:36to the Milwaukee Bucks.

08:37Number three, Cam Johnson

08:38to the Denver Nuggets.

08:39Number four, Desmond Bain

08:40to the Orlando Magic.

08:42Number five, Nikhil Alexander-Walker

08:44to the Atlanta Hawks.

08:46Freddie C, typically,

08:48Wiggy Smalls, a.k.a. Michelle Smallman,

08:50is my accountability partner,

08:52but she's not here.

08:53So I gotta give that responsibility to you.

08:56Yep.

08:57When it comes to my power rankings,

08:58top five NBA faces in new places.

09:00Right.

09:01Any objections, any omissions?

09:03The only one I would have,

09:04I would have flipped around

09:05Cam Johnson to the Nuggets.

09:06I might have put that at number two

09:08and move Miles Turner of the Bucks

09:09down to number three.

09:10Here's why.

09:11Because I think Cam Johnson

09:12makes the Nuggets more of a threat

09:13in the Western Conference

09:14to compete more than Miles Turner

09:16with the Milwaukee Bucks.

09:18The Bucks still have a lot of holes

09:19that they have to fill.

09:21And Miles Turner can only fill

09:22a couple of those.

09:24But you have a Cam Johnson.

09:25This Nuggets team looks eerily similar

09:27to the team that we saw

09:29that won the NBA Championship

09:30versus Miami.

09:31And to bring some memory

09:32to everybody's memory,

09:33they did take the Oklahoma City Thunder

09:35to a seven-game series

09:36when you think about

09:37what kind of a weakened squad

09:39that pushed them to the limit.

09:41This squad's a lot better

09:42and a lot more fortified CC

09:44to have a deep run

09:45in what's going to be

09:46another load of Western Conference.

09:48So that's the only disagreement.

09:50I might have flipped number two

09:51and number three,

09:51but the rest of your list,

09:53top shelf, my friend.

09:54Top shelf.

09:54The only reason that I had

09:56Miles Turner over Cam Johnson

09:59is because the presence

10:01of Miles Turner gives the Bucs

10:03a better chance

10:04of keeping Giannis.

10:05Okay.

10:06All right.

10:06So that's the only reason why.

10:07That's completely fair.

10:08You know what I mean?

10:08Nikola Jokic ain't leaving

10:10the Denver Nuggets.

10:10He ain't going nowhere.

10:11I mean, don't let the owner

10:14talk about it.

10:15He's entertaining the thoughts.

10:17Let's not go there,

10:18but I'm just saying.

10:19Yeah.

10:20He was SOS stuck on stupid

10:21by saying something like that.

10:22I don't know what that was about.

10:23That was wild.

10:24That was wild.

10:24That's what happens

10:25when you have a guy

10:26in front of the grill

10:27of the cookout

10:27and too much smoke

10:28gets in his nose.

10:29And all of a sudden

10:30the brainpower goes

10:31completely opposite way

10:32about, yo,

10:33if the second apron happens,

10:34we might have to think

10:35about trade number 15.

10:37Stay out talking idiotic

10:39stuff like that.

10:40If you're an owner

10:41of an NBA franchise

10:42about traded Nikola Jokic,

10:44he is Chris Canty

10:45and Freddie Coleman

10:45together on a sportsman

10:46like at ESPN radio

10:47and the ESPN app

10:49as well as ESPN news.

10:50And my man,

10:50Chris Canty wonders

10:51if the Oklahoma City Thunder

10:53will be the Boston Celtics

10:54next season

10:55in terms of avoiding

10:57not repeating.

10:58I will tell CC

10:59why that will not

11:01be an issue.

11:02Keep it here.

11:03This is on Sportsmanlike.

11:04The next chapter in this.

11:06I'll be back.

11:07I'll be back.

11:08I'll be back.
