00:00The Boston Celtics.
00:03This situation is very interesting.
00:08So they, you know, to some degree, I'm not sure Boston actually could have beat out Miami.
00:15I do think it is on the board that they were used as leverage because really Miami did give up
00:20everything they had.
00:21Because they weren't going to give up Ben, then the trade makes no sense.
00:26Because if Milwaukee really valued Jalen Brown, then that deal probably gets done.
00:32But Boston clearly didn't go all of the way in in the way that, you know, people wanted.
00:39And they were stingy on the inclusion of a Hugo Gonzalez or a Baylor Shireman.
00:45And listen, people in Boston are insane, okay?
00:48They overrate these things.
00:49They've been doing it for years and years and years.
00:51And they will continue to do this for years and years and years, okay?
00:56Then why couldn't he help them not blow a 3-1?
00:59It's just nonsense stuff.
01:00It doesn't matter.
01:00It doesn't matter.
01:01But when the trade didn't go through, I actually thought, Coach, well, the Jalen Brown thing can be salvaged.
01:09Boston are the type of team who won't care if Jalen wants out.
01:15They'll just be like, no, we always try to trade you.
01:18And that's life.
01:19You're going to be back.
01:20And I thought Jalen Brown might be the kind of guy to turn it into motivation to prove his own
01:27team wrong.
01:28Be like, yeah, whatever.
01:29I'll just continue to do my own Twitch streams.
01:31And I won't like anybody here.
01:33But whatever.
01:34We're going to win.
01:35And I'm going to be awesome.
01:35And that's fine.
01:37That's what I thought.
01:38I thought it was on the board.
01:39I wasn't saying it was a guarantee he'd be back.
01:41Well, now we've reached this interesting place where it doesn't seem like Jalen Brown was available because Giannis was available.
01:52It seems like Jalen Brown's just available.
01:55And Boston are now desperate to get rid of him in a...
02:00Yet they're doing it in a way, coach, that is going to put...
02:06According to reports, Minnesota called on Jalen Brown.
02:12And Boston asked for Gobert, Nas Reid, and all of those picks.
02:18So, and of course for Minnesota, like, well, we can't trade Gobert as well.
02:25Like, what's our basketball team then?
02:27Which is why they pivot to LaMelo.
02:28We're going to get into the LaMelo deal.
02:31Boston now, it seemed like they are desperate to trade Jalen Brown.
02:37And I feel like it's very difficult to tell what that return is going to be.
02:42If they would have landed Giannis, like we said, we're talking potential title favorites.
02:48But it feels like Boston odds may get worse following a Jalen Brown trade now.
02:53Yeah, because of the fact that everybody knows they have to trade him.
02:57So you're not going to get full value, Kev.
03:00You're going to get 65, 70 cents on the dollar.
03:03And here's why Jalen Brown is not going to be the bigger man.
03:08Because this is the second time it's happened.
03:10It's happened with Kevin Durant.
03:13And he was ticked off.
03:14Because Jason Tatum went to them and said, go get Kevin Durant.
03:18But he had to salvage it.
03:20They can't salvage it again for a guy that basically had an unbelievable all-NBA season,
03:28basically proclaimed himself the best two-way player in the world, MVP candidate.
03:34And now you're being brushed aside again.
03:36Again, I'm going to say something that's probably going to make people be like,
03:41what is Coach Young talking about?
03:44If I'm trading one of them, I'm trading the one that's less healthy.
03:49Are we sure that Tatum's going to be okay?
03:52I mean, are we like sure, sure?
03:55I mean, listen, he probably came back too early.
03:58But he came back and was fine and couldn't play in a game seven?
04:02Like, are we really sure about this?
04:08That's just my opinion here.
04:10And maybe I'm completely wrong.
04:13But to me, there's a lot of problems in Boston and Kevin.
04:18I don't know how it's going to get fixed.
