Don gone, too?

You’re going to sit here and tell me Don is better than AI? You need help. AI is way past Don it’s not

I don’t hate him per say. He just can’t be our #1 option. Doesn’t get to the line nearly enough, not a great finisher, and has a tendency to shoot the jazz out of a close game. Not a great playmaker, doesn’t make the right play gets himself into impossible situations and doesn’t know how to trust his teammates.

Players evolve. Get better. More efficient.

Don is a better player than AI ever was. Just the evolution of the game. Ever since MJ, perimeter play has gotten so much better. Offense and defense. Guys are playing 30 feet in now. I'm AI's day, you didn't see guys shooting off the dribble from 3. So many defenders were lumbering bigs who had no business athletically on the court with guys like AI or Don.

But in terms of league relevance, AI for sure has Don beat. AI was bigger in his day than Don is now. Not even close.

Lowe and McMahon talked on the pod about Quin/Don... not a lot to report.

Lowe mentioned the Heat will do something... they are setting up for a move. The package is still pretty meh but if you got:

Herro, Duncan, Strus, Vincent, Yurt, 2022 1st (after draft night so they can trade picks two years in a row), 2023 1st unprotected, 2027 or 2028 1st unprotected (they owe a pick to OKC in 2025 or 2026) and pick swaps in 24, 27 or 28, and 29... all unprotected. It seems like the wouldn't have a ton of value now but their core guys are old with a lot of mileage. Even Don may be sliding at that point.

You flip Herro, Strus, Vincent, Yurt for a pick in the 4-10 range or a pick in that range plus a future first. Its not ideal but I can see the Heat giving us everything they can to get it done... they are also pretty good at making stuff happen out of thin air so you could have them shop Herro and find the deal for us first.

They mentioned the Knicks have kinda pissed us off so we may not be talking with them right now.

Can you clarify this for me? If the jazz trade Mitchell I want the jazz to deal with the Knicks

Knicks have openly been recruiting Don which is poor form. The thing that is most often cited is game 1 of the Dallas series Worl Wide Wes (a Knicks FO dude/influencer) and Julius Randle sat like front row.

We'd do the best deal we could regardless... we may not be returning their calls atm.
