Now, here's what I'm interested in, Keith,
00:03
and I'm interested if there's backlash on the trade.
00:05
You mentioned the way he launches threes.
00:07
Oh, yeah.
00:08
And he's tiny, by the way.
00:09
He's six.
00:10
I didn't realize he was so small.
00:11
He's listed at 6'3".
00:12
I bet he's smaller than that.
00:13
But he plays big.
00:14
No, not really.
00:16
He plays, you know,
00:17
five feet behind the three-point line.
00:20
So, like, is he going to come in
00:23
and are they going to be like,
00:24
hey, Anthony, you don't shoot enough.
00:26
Like, there's a chance they're like,
00:28
you could really unlock yourself
00:29
if you shoot even more.
00:30
Forget nine threes a game.
00:32
Yeah.
00:32
How about you take 10, 11, 12 threes a game
00:35
and then really you're leaning in on this style of play,
00:38
which is one thing that makes me a little fearful about it.
00:40
Holiday would shoot threes.
00:41
Don't get me wrong.
00:41
Yeah.
00:42
But he had a conscience.
00:43
Right.
00:43
This guy doesn't have a conscience.
00:44
Yeah, no, he doesn't.
00:46
But so Derek White,
00:47
we were looking this up before.
00:48
What was it?
00:49
Something like 12 shots a game
00:51
but nine of them are threes.
00:52
So Simon's is actually a little bit more 50-50,
00:54
believe it or not,
00:55
because there's so many shots.
00:56
There's a lot of shots to be had.
00:58
Hang on.
00:58
You guys have to score.
00:58
Hang on.
00:59
He was 50-50 in Portland.
01:00
In Portland.
01:01
What do you think they do with him here?
01:02
No, I don't think it'll be 50-50.
01:03
I think you're right.
01:03
I think it will be more threes.
01:05
He does have it in him,
01:06
but so does Jalen Brown.
01:08
So does Jason Tatum.
01:09
So does Derek White.
01:10
We've seen all those guys drive to the basket and score.
01:13
And I think Simon's can do that too.
01:14
He's smaller than those three guys that I mentioned,
01:16
but we've seen him.
01:17
He can still get into the paint,
01:18
even though he's a littler guy.
01:20
And he's a fantastic free throw shooter,
01:23
so you want him to go to the line.
01:26
But my guess is, you're right,
01:27
Missoula gets his hands on him,
01:28
and he's like,
01:29
listen, you can take nine, ten threes a game.
01:32
If you pass up a three,
01:33
you're going to sit on the bench.
01:34
Like, that's basically what's going to happen to Simon.
01:35
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:41
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:42
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:43
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:43
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:44
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:45
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:45
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:46
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:47
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:48
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:49
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:50
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:51
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:52
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:53
I think that's what I'm going to do.
01:54
I think that's what I'm going to do.
