00:00how serious an offer was that that was serious that was the thing and it wasn't as front and
00:06center as as this was for the last few weeks but those offers came out um and there was certainly
00:16some damage control that had to be done after the fact of that okay so the celtics had to believe
00:23that this deal was going to get done don't oh i'm i'm leading you but did the celtics believe
00:28they had this deal done i just i think they knew that they had a very good chance i think
00:35they
00:35believed with what jalen's offer was he was by far the best player that the bucks could get
00:41in this deal so when you offer him up and some sweetener and first round picks you'd think
00:47hey this is something that they should jump back compared to the the poopoo platter that the the
00:53heat offered up but that's not how nba deals go sometimes as we've seen for years and years
01:00across the league whether it's guys the celtics have gone past not recently but like you know the
01:04the paul george of the world like a decade ago like sometimes teams take offers you don't expect
01:10them to so it is it's something where when the celtics got into this and we know that jalen was
01:16going to get on the table i think the celtics do ultimately they had enough to top the heats offer
01:22but were they going to be willing to put all that on the table to to get um yas in
01:30this situation
01:31that's what we weren't sure of and it's clear the celtics drew a line in the sand here they didn't
01:35want to include some young guys like u gonzalez or baylor shireman or all their future draft capital
01:43and pick swaps like the heat were like so the bucks clearly used them well for leverage here
01:49if nothing else to make sure they squeezed everything out of the heat and now the celtics
01:53how they come back to this will be fascinating
