00:00what's up you've got your hokey's gear on but cakes has the appropriate gear on yes i do
00:06although he's got a nats cap on i'm mixing it up but you have your wizard's hoodie on
00:12congratulations to the wash of wizards the tank paid off i'm scorching case of bullets
00:17i know i know this song tilt strap t-shirt i learned that yesterday on twitter why
00:22and he just feels like it's nails on the chalkboard when i play it but
00:26you have to play it on the biggest day for the franchise in at least 15 years they secure the
00:32number one overall pick thank you john wall once again john wall delivered legend legend number one
00:39pick on the stage helps deliver the number one pick again for his beloved franchise thank you john wall
00:46thank you thank you thank you well it makes sense worst record in the league they should get the
00:50number one pick it happened correctly but did not think it would happen thought it was no chance
00:54yeah um i'm stunned by it since the odds changed in the draft lottery in 2019 the worst team had
01:01never won the number one overall pick right never i mean till now yeah and it happened to the wizards
01:08now they just got to get it right they got to get it right and not only does it happen
01:12it happens in
01:13a year where the nba draft is loaded loaded with talent loaded so this is just this is just huge
01:22news
01:22for wizards fans wizards fans should be rejoicing wizards fans are rejoicing they definitely were
01:27yesterday and i do see that it's trending towards aj devanza but man if you watch some highlights of
01:34eb's a caleb wilson guy he looks amazing and don't sleep on darren peterson like peterson
01:39has slipped because he didn't play in all the games he he left early in some games got this creatine
01:47excuse
01:48who knows but he is a two guard which to me i would rather have a stud two guard all
01:57things being
01:58equal than probably a three four like i'd rather have an anthony edwards type i mean you think of
02:04all the great two guards in the game and how many championships they've had michael jordan kobe bryant
02:10lebron james is more of a swing guy i guess but that's the tantalizing one but you got to get
02:16it right
02:16i want the best player right i want whoever will dawkins and michael winger and that brain trust
02:21determines is the best player they've been watching they've been watching all these guys for months i
02:25don't care about the position i don't care if it's a two guard if it's a three if it's a
02:30center whatever
02:30it is just pick the best player also don't misstate me i love caleb wilson but if i if you
02:35put a gun
02:35to my head i would draft the bansa i would draft the aj to bansa number one i'm taking the
02:39guy who led
02:40the country in scoring and he's immediately ready for the nba then that's the bansa yeah i would take the
02:45bansa i think peterson's gonna be really good i mean i i think all those guys gonna be really good
02:49but i'm taking the bigger guy the longer guy i'd take the size is always big i get sized i'm
02:55big on
02:55size they if they take the bansa here's your potential starting lineup trey young then maybe
03:01key sean and then bring trey johnson off the bench aj alex r anthony davis that's pretty strong pretty good
03:08it's pretty you get those guys all play together it's a pretty long front line that's a pretty strong
03:12group i mean maybe you swap out trey johnson for key sean bring key sean on the bench but i
03:17think
03:17key sean's a better player more versatile uh i don't know pretty sick that'd be a pretty sick
03:23line pretty tantalizing starting five i think if you put darren peterson in there it'd be a great
03:27starting five too i like peterson but i just i think the bansa is just a little bit more explosive
03:33for
03:33me and i do like the length and the size they can all be great players yeah but what's the
03:38best fit
03:38i mean do you want the the i i just think he's more refined than all those guys to be
03:44honest
03:45well he may he's not the shooter i don't think that that's okay you can but he's gonna work on
03:49that on that no no he's not he shot 33 from the three-point line peterson at 38 yeah but
03:55that stuff
03:56could flip from year to year well you can also but if you also look at the free throws peterson
04:00was an
04:0183 free throw shooter versus demand like 77 well i'm just saying that a little bit better of a shooter
04:07a little bit but i think that you can always rep that out i think he's pretty damn explosive he
04:12is
04:12here's what i know the wizards are getting a superstar player to add to their to their core that's true
04:18they're getting a superstar player no matter what whether it's the bonds up peterson i don't think
04:22caleb wilson is in the discussion for number one overall but i mean maybe i don't think i don't
04:28think he's in the class but he is in a deep athlete he's he's gonna be really good i'm sure
04:32he is
04:32yeah but he's gonna be he might need another year or two over these other guys but yeah he's
04:37gonna be really he's gonna be good for like the grizzlies or the clippers right one of those
04:41for the bulls a little bit further down the bulls at four gonna be a perfect fit i was i
04:46don't know
04:47how you guys were but as soon as i saw that the the wizards logo wasn't flipped over with number
04:52five
04:52i was like oh we i didn't think we're gonna get number one but i was like now we have
04:57a full-blown
04:57sweat now the sweat is officially tanked and had their picks swapped to the clippers that was hilarious
05:03that was the fact that the jazz get number two and they're like oh we can't get aj debonsa that's
05:08hilarious ah i've got bullets fever well who knows they might still get debonsa but we'll see
05:13i don't think they will they offer a draft hall maybe maybe they'll make a deal uh but i i
05:19i like i
05:20like the bonds he just to me i think he's a little bit more explosive i just like that size
05:25it's like
05:25the way he finishes at the room i'm gonna have an aj debonsa jersey before i know it
05:31this is a great day it's a great day to be a wizards fan you know what you can't say
05:36stunning
05:36you can't say that very often great day to be a wizards fan but today is that day i don't
05:43think
05:43because the wizards are like cursed or anything i don't believe in curses i don't believe in any of
05:46that i just thought at 14 chance it's just foolish to think you're gonna win it and the fact that
05:51they
05:51did i mean i tend to believe personally probably rigged it but it's amazing now these that was
05:57valdez's approach for months yeah i don't care how it happened i don't care if ernst and young
06:03is in on the bit yeah and they're getting greased up beneath the table under the table i don't care
06:08how it happened all i know is the team that i've watched struggle and flail and be mediocre to worse
06:15usually worse over the last three plus decades yeah now they're they're a promising promising group
06:23that you add the number one overall pick to well i already thought they were a great day they were
06:26fun to watch this past year you know not in the sense that you thought they're going to win games
06:30but i thought the talent you could start to see the talent coming together yep now you add the number
06:34one overall pick hopefully um now you really got some now maybe this makes anthony davis and his
06:39representation go hmm kind of kind of intrigued should be should be more intrigued number one overall
06:46pick should be more intrigued it should be a little more enticing yeah for anthony davis and other
06:52future free agents or guys who get traded here to want to play here yeah it's stunning it's a great
06:59day i mean it's just it was a great day yesterday great day today yeah i mean and after after
07:05they
07:05mark tatum red and you know the second pick of the utah jazz and you just watch john wall it's
07:11almost
07:11like he just wanted to get up out of his seat did you see it yeah yeah he just wanted
07:16to get up and
07:16he didn't like have he didn't like break into applause or anything crazy no he i mean i'm sure
07:21he was happy but yes he he wasn't um he wasn't that excited yeah he's a low he's he's a
07:26fairly low-key
07:27he's low-key i mean yeah i'm sure he was excited but the wizard's offense was just dreadful this year
07:32for a lot of reasons so i think you just add a you know you add a piece like debonsa
07:36who's uh i know
07:39you bring up his free throw percentage he got to the free throw line a billion times now i know
07:43that the
07:44the order is predetermined before they bring the the envelopes up like does john wall already know
07:50when he's sitting like he doesn't know but the team officials know no nobody knows
07:55it's just yes it's they're in a room team officials know but they're locked in a room
08:00team officials they don't leave the room they're sequestered but they're not the ones that are there
08:03on tv right they don't have their phones that's what i thought but i wasn't well that's not what the
08:07woman said the woman said the only person who knows is the ernst and young rep when they walk out
08:11the way to sell it yeah no there's witnesses in in okay well yeah yeah yeah yeah all right well
08:15all right so nobody on this john wall reacted nobody on the camera he reacted like he already
08:20knew no no he didn't he absolutely didn't he gave you nothing he's just a chill guy he is a
08:25chill guy
08:26and he's also thinking about howard's lineup right because he's going to be running the howard
08:30basketball team that's fine he could like i'd rather him push that to the side you know about the
08:34wizards okay yesterday don't worry about the bison okay when you're on the stage representing the
08:39wizards i don't think he was thinking about him i think he was thinking about the woods but he was
08:43wearing their shoes i did see that he was wearing their their air jordans or whatever jump man shoes
08:51yeah it's it's it's exciting i mean you go you win 17 games you lose 26 of 27 you should
08:57get the
08:57number one pick i tend to agree and they got it and for it to be a year where i
09:02know people kept
09:02quoting uh i guess bobby mark said it was the deepest draft in 30 years yeah top of the draft
09:08a lot of
09:09those guys were saying jay billis said it uh-huh he's uh jay williams they both agree it's the
09:14deepest freshman class they've seen and maybe forever it's not a kwame brown draft let's hope
09:20it doesn't look like it hope it's not a resashay draft oh it can't it can't be that they watch
09:26that cannot be that yeah the hawks did because the wizards got sarr number two the wizards made the
09:31correct pick right the hawks botched it alex sarr fell into our lap well i can't wait to hear
09:36from listeners and see what they think what they're leaning towards uh you know i wouldn't
09:42freak out too too much about winger's comments about talking about the wizards landing the number
09:46one pick first and foremost will dawkins the wizards gm is going to join us at eight o'clock so
