hi from New York it's the show that is currently watching Wy highlights instead of researching the show who's doing that you or him I'm locked in why you staring at he's trying to steal wimy from I'm watching Dusty he's trying second hour first things first I promise it's going to be excellent no he looking through it's Wednesday July 3rd and it's time for a special edition of the greatest segment in all of sports NBA tiers but before we start I need to apologize earlier this week we ran an unsanctioned committees non- inro version of Tears which featured naming convention such as tier one and tier four well maybe it worked you might say well maybe here's the most liked comment on YouTube it's like RW was given a homework assignment and forgot about it until 10 minutes before the show so that being said I apologize it won't happen again and now without further ad I was purposely trying to make it Bland brw don't do that for the TV what if I came out with a great tears I would be happy for you me too I here's the thing if my tears was phenomenal it still wouldn't happen to you be like looking at I'd be okay I would have been okay but you decided this is why the stuff needs to like hey I'm going to crush a mediocre segment no I just said I'm not going to name you tears you but that can I say something that was the tip of the iceberg okay can we get to it can we listen Brew I love you and watch worth NBA tiers thank you D wild wild is always trying to drive a wedge between brew and I that was not me D but I will tell you brw this is Hell bottom of the tears like to see you do the capture the flag with two G's meaning of course Cooper goodidea these teams are already tanking whether they mean to or not they are already tanking they're already watching Duke highlights preparing for next year's NBA draft some bad teams Jerry West warned you Jerry West has some all-time great quotes my favorite is you know your stat on the internet JJ but there is other ones as well uh and he told you where you don't want to be is in that middle where you're are you going for it are you not and these four teams I think the Jazz are maybe the one team that know we're not going for it and we're trying to bottom out the Raptors just gave $400 million combined to Scotty Barnes and Isaiah quickly I don't get it the Hawks they get trade all those picks for deante then get a couple back for him the Bulls have been stuck in the middle forever they they are they trading line I don't know all right next ready to take a leap question mark yeah shinon wimy Pao let's go the question is for any of these three teams to get up a level or two it is going to be because their young star and I understand shanon's not a number one pick like Palo and wimy but I Wilds was early on him and correct he is a future star and not Superstar necessarily like wimy and Paulo will be but star how much of a leap will he take in for the Rockets they have exactly they have another guy in jayen green that could do it as well uh League to deep all right if you have dear box Jamon sabonis and a good Supporting Cast or if you have bam and Jimmy or if you have an again believe it or not that is the Clippers logo I know I know can we just go back to the old one I mean I looked at it too I was like who is that that I remembered a clippership if you have Kawai with regular season Harden or if you have Durant and Booker or if you have Donovan and Garland and Moy you should be a contender is M none of them are because the leag is simply to De next year Legends deserve better Stephen LeBron they deserve better the they deserve if you're Steph either a team that is truly willing to go all in in the now or at the very least willing to keep clay around the reporting today was horrific where it's like they wouldn't even give him a contract offer Joe lob invited him to play golf and then wouldn't talk contract with him Clay's just out there golfing with them all sad I didn't like that and for the Lakers I go for it or don't yeah instead what you have is still the two biggest stars in the league still two of the 10 best players in the league playing out the string of their careers another move to make question mark So for the Pelicans Grizzlies and Pacers I like their core I like what they're doing do they have another move I think the Pelicans are they going to move Brandon Inc the Grizzlies haven't gone the time we thought they were going to go all in and trade a bunch of picks J was out and it injured and the Pacers still have their powder dry as well I don't think as presently constituted any of them are good enough yet but they have enough assets where maybe they could be all right now to the true contenders don't forget about us we might have the two best players in the league guys we the the two best finals performances anybody has had in the last half decade are by these two guys they they they are still unique unicorns above that's redundant but you understand what I mean like nobody else has a player like either one of those guys and good maybe not great but good Supporting Cast they've kind of been cast aside is this finally the year the Sixers haven't won a title in more than 40 years the Knicks haven't won a title in more than 50 years the Timberwolves haven't won a title in infinite years never never done it never even played for one do all three of them have the best chance they've had in 20 some odd years to do it this year maybe is this finally the year excellent season and excellent off season we know it's the number one season made the finals and then the off season the Thunder brw they add Alex cruso they add hartenstein to get some rebounding the the mad bring in Quenton Grimes and Klay Thompson and lose almost nothing as far as production goes excellent season excellent off season and then at the top of the tiers running it back they're just bringing everyone back and they won 80 games last year and faced Little Resistance that Chris brousard are the Committees in solid teers bro no it was all right you could have just went tier 10 tier n cleaner um I am moving the Timberwolves up on the same level as OKC and Dallas okay I I think they definitely deserve to be up there look I agree with you both of them had great off seasons for Dallas it wasn't just clay either you know they added some other things that I think are going to make them them better Marshall Quint yep yeah Quinton you really like um Grimes for his shooting but OKC I still feel like I I could be wrong but I feel like they're a year away from really being able to win the west and maybe win the whole thing they're still so so young they've won one playoff series together so I just think they're a year away from getting it done so I'm going to move Minnesota up to join them not to replace one um because I think look I think that experience last year in the playoffs is going to be great for the Timberwolves I think they definitely in their mind and emotionally celebrated after they beat Denver and then they wer weren't even ready for Dallas um and I think they won't do that again I think Edwards will not be emotionally exhausted in a late deep playoff run cuz now he knows what it's all about and they just look I'm not going to make too much out of this but Joe Engles not a bad yeah they just signed him not a bad he's a career 41% shooter from three they lost Kyle Anderson look I like Anderson's defense and I think he gives them some toughness but they they they're fine with that because he I he was a self check I mean the dude just can't shoot and so he he's going to Golden State he's kind of like a poor man's Draymond so I like Minnesota uh and I'm going to move quickly the Sixers uh down I'm switching Denver and Sixers that's all I'm saying was just a bonus it's a bonus yeah that's a bonus a bonus switching I couldn't I couldn't sit there and let that stay Denver below the Sixers let Wilds go I will also do that so I don't know moving them up higher I'm moving them up to the second line but you had moved them up to the third so I guess I'm moving them up one to the second line so I know you're saying like this is why they're on second I'm I'm giving respect to the Celtics but there was one team that the Celtics had a hard time handling and it was the Denver Nuggets they were 19 and 80 against the rest of the NBA but the Nuggets were two and0 that that's no that's no it's the record versus the Celtics the rest of the NBA was 1980s with 19 win that that graphic's correct it's phrased oddly but go ahead I think he did I don't Denver never lost to the Celtics and all the other teams did yeah there you go yeah so you might say like wow that's not fair we saw a Minnesota manhandle we did Denver had big leads either kept big leads or came back weeks you know why that is Jamal Murray was hurt usually Jamal Murray takes his regular season numbers and gets them better this time he was struggling on some bum knees he was just a little bit hurt throwing heat packs we will see playoff Jamal Murray for Team Canada who I'm here to announce before July 4th I wouldn't dare do it on July 4th I'm rooing for Team Canada a little bit too are they you picking Team Canada pick I want to hear Pi are you Pi you're even a sports polygamist I'm like Vince Carter played for Team USA he played for the Raptors that most famous play when he dunked over in the Olympics the slam dunk contest he was with the Raptors and I know I like Kendrick Lamar I also like Drake K okay all right I think you're picking Team Canada I'm not picking I like Dylan Brooks though you know that in any event I got one more thing oh sorry I know you're thinking oh but what about these big leads and this and they kind of Sleepwalk like ah we're the Champs we'll be fine well what if you added Russell Westbrook who just gives you a nice little bit of energy Off the Bench he's only going to make about 4 million bucks did he do great for the Clippers no did you see him in the playoffs that's not his role yeah I saw him play great one game one game and rest of the game okay I here's what I saw I saw Denver blow a 20-point lead because they're they can't get anything going nobody can create their own shop besides the big two okay I this is the post free agency tiers yeah which means built into it is the fact that first of all Russell West is he on the Nuggets yet no he's on Clippers right Sig okay all right so he's not on there yet no meanwhile cavius cwell Pope is gone that wasn't great it's not great they they are they L they are losing pieces I I will give some free advice to the Denver Nuggets I think that during the season you probably have to bite the bullet and trade Michael Porter Jr for three 10 to 12 million year role players I think I I think junor is important for them you see how many times he'll hit a big yeah I understand but his but because of where they are contract wise and evidently the kronies don't have enough money to pay the tax what are weing they got a lot of money folks but regardless um I think splitting him up into three role players might you know kind of offset the loss of kyp Bruce Brown from a year ago Uncle Jeff Green Bruce Brown might come back call Bruce Brown Josh let's put a call into Bruce Brown during the on the Nuggets behalf yes okay got it who's represent an Excel guy thanks for watching subscribe here to get more from the show and to check out clips from other shows on FS1
