00:00like jp always say stop being prima head we are already pre-pissed off and the man hadn't come
00:06out here and played any basketball i would say this they went out there and they traded for him
00:10last year he came in with a willingness if everybody right now is losing their damn minds
00:16because a guy keeps saying commanders commanders because he wants to play for the team he wants
00:22to play because you know what many teams are gonna deal with him he feel he has a shot here
00:26because his boy's on the team but the ultimate thing if you're going to do that then you got to
00:30be loving on trey young too trey young came in he was talking about how great he's happy to be
00:35here
00:36he's already played a little bit he's went out and he wore every jersey under the sun he's he's
00:41represented the dc area with all the sports teams so he's doing the exact same thing brandon now you
00:47hadn't even gotten to the building y'all loving him and you hating on trey young already it's just this
00:51is what sports media is turning to where everybody has an opinion they want to mess up stuff and the
00:58people that are supposed to be the journalists they are getting fit they feel like they're being lost
01:02so they start saying stupid stuff and jumping out there and saying some of the most erratic things
01:07ever under the sun but you know what there's one person who's not gonna fall for it me okay i
01:14will
01:15sit there and fight back and tell people what i think about some stuff and you could tell me i'm
01:20wrong
01:20you could say what you want to say but hey i can't say this the worst contract ever i can't
01:26say
01:26it's a bad contract because they hadn't played yet if we were in year two of it and he hadn't
01:30been on
01:31the court and nothing has been going on for the better then i would understand but when i talk to
01:35guys that play ball real ballers they say best pick and roll guard out there one of the best assist
01:41players ever okay the guy has an unbelievable three he can knock down shots so if you get him and
01:47you
01:47get you get some 75 percent of an anthony davis i think you all of a sudden now have a
01:54team that
01:54can play so i am not going to go in that bandwagon with big brian i'm calling big brian windhorse
02:00because
02:00i think he likes to say a lot of stuff too i put my head my face over my head
02:03every time i hear him
02:04talk he says some asinine crap so i feel in this situation we're going to sit here and i'm gonna
02:11let
02:11the contract play out okay let's let it play out let's see what happens let's see if anthony davis is
02:16more
02:17interested in playing because trey's back john wall a former player here who we love john wall
02:23said he'll take uh peterson because he feels the bonzer is too ball dominant needs the ball in his
02:29hand and feel that it's going to mess up trey and uh it'll mess up trey's uh uh we'll say
02:36how trey plays the game so if that's the case and john is saying it out loud could it be
02:43that john is
02:44thinking that they're going the peterson way we will see we got jp in here now what's up brother
02:48what up b how you doing there i am fantastic i'm back and i'm already pissed off and everybody
02:54calling this contract the worst contract ever when the dude hasn't even played yet but they're loving
02:59on a damn guy who hadn't got even coming to this town because he keeps saying i want to play
03:05commanders
03:05go command was taking me man give me a damn break this man he has come here and played and
03:11has tried
03:11to show you that i want to be here but jay let's be real good morning brian yeah if you
03:18are if you're
03:19an eighth year player and you have shown any if you show you can walk and chew gum at the
03:23same time
03:23you make 50 million dollars the nba like it's really hard to process the money in the nba
03:29because it's just so astronomical he was supposed to make 49 million right you think he tore it up
03:35to go lower no i think the trey young contract is a little scary in that he's been hurt and
03:42his last
03:42couple seasons in atlanta were down years i i think there's some reality with that i understand that
03:48but i think i think the local reaction that hates the contract is ptsd from brad beal i i think
03:55i think
03:56that's what this is like oh my god we gave a guy that wasn't that good a supermax and it
04:00killed us
04:00for a couple years and now they're doing it again i think it's important to point out they didn't
04:05supermax him right like they they could have paid him a lot more they gave him the max he could
04:10have
04:10gotten him free agency so at least there was some recognition a little bit and also what if that's
04:15him also saying you know what we need extra on this team and i feel i can be a piece
04:22of what we need
04:22to get i would say this right now bradley bill's contract is worse than this contract
04:27totally because you know why because it happened and i've seen what the hell has happened i can't
04:32knock this one right now now there are people out there really really knocking it and winhorse
04:39winhorse is a guy that i respect a lot like i think he's a really good reporter and for him
04:43to
04:43say instantaneously the worst contract in the nba that does carry some weight you got to at least
04:48considerate it carries weight but you know what jay this is what i learned i said as if i don't
04:54know
04:54if you heard me everybody is a reporter today so the real reporters feel they got to go out there
05:01and say something because guess who else in it the people that get to the social media and say a
05:06lot
05:06that's the problem we have so many people that are real reporters competing with non-reporters
05:10i believe that happens so they say some stuff i don't believe this is instantaneously
05:16instantaneously the worst contract ever hell no i think i think you're right though it is
05:25remarkable that everybody in dc not everybody because i've seen some some smart fans some good
05:32replies i think there's some room for context with this but like there's this there's a lot of
05:38reaction in town that people really want brandon iuk who's never played here and they're mad about
05:44this trey young contract where trey young has done nothing but the right thing since he arrived
05:49here he even played you know four or five games he dude he could have gotten hurt in the five
05:53six
05:53games he played and if he got hurt he would have had the player option and then nothing else
05:58so like he did show them some level of commitment with that yeah i think the nba money is just
06:04so
06:05insane that we get blown away by the numbers you know what i mean i think people have to people
06:10have
06:10to understand i i've said it for years i'm not here to just entertain people i'm here to make
06:16them smarter okay educate if you stop looking at your circumstance and look at the nba circumstance
06:24like every time somebody see a country oh man you wish you were playing today no i've said i had
06:30people sit up there and calculate and do the inflation stuff on what i would be probably making a day
06:35i'll be all right so i didn't play in this era i'm not gonna sit up and try to compare
06:39my my numbers
06:41to the numbers that are here because they won't be anywhere close so i understand it but i think
06:45people got to stop looking at their circumstance and look at what the nba does trey young for his
06:52experience and what he's shown could be making more and he's not so they have lured him to a certain
07:01situation and let's be real the little stuff about the miami heat after watching them go get yana's
07:07i don't believe that was a joke i think if he had gotten out of this thing and they didn't
07:12want to
07:13trade they could have traded to miami because they trying to build something down there too
07:16i think i the the people that are like they were bidding against themselves i think are way off
07:22i think trey absolutely would have had a market and i think if you if you don't believe so wait
07:28until
07:28you see with the lakers either ruey or austin reeves is going to hit free agency like the
07:34lakers aren't going to be able to bring everybody back like wait till you see what those numbers are
07:39going to look like and i would argue trey young's a way more accomplished player than those players
07:43but see the thing of it we only like for for the most part you know this i know this
07:49and i want fans
07:50to understand when you hear something publicly that's not the only conversation that's been going on
07:56you think the wizards haven't talked to people to see what he could possibly get
08:00what the situations are before they made this move to go do this i also think because he's been in
08:07the
08:07nba what he played two years at oklahoma maybe just one he's been in the nba six seven years so
08:14you
08:15feel like he's old he's 27 years old the contract you just signed the fourth year is a player option
08:21which if things are going well he could opt out again you ask people up there where you at ask
08:27when
08:27you see the nba people ask them what they think about trade like when he's and now people say when
08:32he's on but people talk about how damn good of a six guy is how great he is in the
08:37pick and roll
08:38you know at one of the best alley-oop all throwers in the world in the nba so when you
08:44start getting
08:45that that's what that's all you want him to do he's not here to carry the basketball team
08:50but that's the money that point guards mate oh i guess did reeves sign already i don't know i i
08:57know
08:58there's reports like brooklyn's gonna throw money around and i think the other reality is and i saw
09:03david aldridge tweeting about this i don't know if i know we got a pack show today um huge we'll
09:08have
09:09to talk to da at some point derrick fisher's gonna join us at one o'clock which is awesome but
09:15with the new tanking rules teams can't really tank anymore they changed the lottery so that teams
09:22would try to compete you combine that you combine that which is a seismic shift in the nba okay teams
09:30can't tank anymore that's what teams have been doing for 15 years so that is a dramatic shift for how
09:37these teams have to operate and then basically in the nba because of the nature of the supermax deal
09:45that the home team is able to pay more than the marketplace you don't get stars to free agency anymore
09:52i'll equate it to an nfl thing
09:56on any planet was alec pierce worth 30 million a year or did he just happen to be
10:02the only top wide receiver free agent in a year where the salary cap's going nuts you know
10:07that's saying right place right time yeah that happens like when you become a free agent and when
10:13the money money uh i mean when the salary cap climbs that's how you get paid there were times in
10:20the back
10:20in the past i remember here with this franchise where a guy becomes a free agent and the going rate
10:26was higher than what their star player i'm just going to use one name jim lachey
10:33was making a certain amount of money and the team refused to pay guys that became free agents more
10:40than jim lachey but you know what they were able to do leave this team and go to another team
10:44and get
10:44more damn money when you become a free agent when you can't like if you sign a deal today and
10:51you're
10:52going to be signed for the next five years in three years somebody else become free they're going to
10:57top the money you're making if they're in the same position and they have some level of the same ability
11:02that's how salary caps work so that's why you see so many guys when they hit that they try to
11:07re
11:07negotiate because it jumps rapidly it's not that oh you're the best player no you know who makes the
11:15person that makes the most money is not always the best player it's the person who became free at the
11:20right time makes the most money i got a text from somebody i talked to right and i said you
11:28know
11:29it's a lot of money but that's what nba deals are and the reply was it better work and i
11:34think that's
11:35a fair place to be i think you need healthy trey young scoring 27 a game with eight dimes a
11:42game
11:42you need him throwing alley-oops to whoever the number one pick tonight is going to be and i think
11:47it's also important to note like this is not the most important piece of the next of of the
11:55pleasant 72 hours that's tonight is the most important piece yeah and and clearly they think
12:01trey is a player that whether it's peterson or debatsa tonight they they think trey is a player
12:06that's going to advance that player's career
12:09that player
