00:00Now, here's what I'm interested in, Keith,

00:03and I'm interested if there's backlash on the trade.

00:05You mentioned the way he launches threes.

00:07Oh, yeah.

00:08And he's tiny, by the way.

00:09He's six.

00:10I didn't realize he was so small.

00:11He's listed at 6'3".

00:12I bet he's smaller than that.

00:13But he plays big.

00:14No, not really.

00:16He plays, you know,

00:17five feet behind the three-point line.

00:20So, like, is he going to come in

00:23and are they going to be like,

00:24hey, Anthony, you don't shoot enough.

00:26Like, there's a chance they're like,

00:28you could really unlock yourself

00:29if you shoot even more.

00:30Forget nine threes a game.

00:32Yeah.

00:32How about you take 10, 11, 12 threes a game

00:35and then really you're leaning in on this style of play,

00:38which is one thing that makes me a little fearful about it.

00:40Holiday would shoot threes.

00:41Don't get me wrong.

00:41Yeah.

00:42But he had a conscience.

00:43Right.

00:43This guy doesn't have a conscience.

00:44Yeah, no, he doesn't.

00:46But so Derek White,

00:47we were looking this up before.

00:48What was it?

00:49Something like 12 shots a game

00:51but nine of them are threes.

00:52So Simon's is actually a little bit more 50-50,

00:54believe it or not,

00:55because there's so many shots.

00:56There's a lot of shots to be had.

00:58Hang on.

00:58You guys have to score.

00:58Hang on.

00:59He was 50-50 in Portland.

01:00In Portland.

01:01What do you think they do with him here?

01:02No, I don't think it'll be 50-50.

01:03I think you're right.

01:03I think it will be more threes.

01:05He does have it in him,

01:06but so does Jalen Brown.

01:08So does Jason Tatum.

01:09So does Derek White.

01:10We've seen all those guys drive to the basket and score.

01:13And I think Simon's can do that too.

01:14He's smaller than those three guys that I mentioned,

01:16but we've seen him.

01:17He can still get into the paint,

01:18even though he's a littler guy.

01:20And he's a fantastic free throw shooter,

01:23so you want him to go to the line.

01:26But my guess is, you're right,

01:27Missoula gets his hands on him,

01:28and he's like,

01:29listen, you can take nine, ten threes a game.

01:32If you pass up a three,

01:33you're going to sit on the bench.

01:34Like, that's basically what's going to happen to Simon.

01:35I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:41I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:42I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:43I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:44I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:45I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:46I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:47I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:48I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:49I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:50I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:51I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:52I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:53I think that's what I'm going to do.

01:54I think that's what I'm going to do.
