The Kings are EMBARRASSING Themselves…

The Sacramento Kings are frankly embarrassing themselves as a report has dropped from Shams the athletic that breaks down what was going on with the escalation of trade talks between the Toronto Raptors and Sacramento Kings ahead of their game a couple nights ago so we’re going to break down what the

Kings had to offer what the deal was essentially centered around because frankly it is embarrassing what they were asking for in an all NBA guy in Pascal seak and what they were trying to offer up what they were trying to finesse the torona Raptors with was frankly Madness but before dive into

That folks again over 56% of our viewers are not subscribed to the channel you guys have been crushing it hitting that sub button and we’re getting very close to that 32,000 subscriber Mark we can get a lot of new viewers so if you’re new to the channel and you’re enjoying

The content would mean the world to me if you guys could hit that subscribe button but let’s dive into the news because frankly we have some Madness coming out of the Sacramento Kings it’s basically Shams came out with a report today saying that he’s told that the

Raptors and kings were in active trade conversations about a pascal cakam trade revolving around Harrison Barnes at this point the only way it ignites is if the Toronto Raptors come back to Sacramento so apparently all the excitement all of the ramping up trade talks was just for the

Sacramento Kings who obviously are in a position to where they’re acquiring the best player in any trade package obviously Dean Fox nor demonto sabonis will be in any seak and potential trade as it would make sense for them to acquire Pascal seak and let one of those

Guys go so basically the kings were hoping to acquire Pascal sakam rev rev it all up get on the phones with Messi probably inviting him down for a special meeting there in Sacramento because we all saw that Messi was their Courtside or at least was around the game in

Sacramento during that game made him fly all the way out to the West Coast over there in Sacramento and offered him Harrison Barnes what’s what is that in what world do you think Miss SAU Jerry a a guy that’s you know one of the top GM’s presidents of basketball operations

His titles have changed over the course of the years what on Earth went through the Sacramento King’s front office’s brains and said hey we’re going to be able to get a deal done surrounding a deal about Harrison Barnes I mean where what logic what world would that make

Sense for the Toronto Raptors I mean looking at Harrison Barn stats he’s not a horrible player by any means 31 years old but 11 points game three rebounds one assists so again he’s a guy that can space the floor he shoots the three ball very well shoots the free throw you know

Very well doesn’t attack the rim that much anymore isn’t getting those crazy dunks like he used to but Harrison Burns is a solid role player you know an average starter in the NBA but it’s not like you’re getting some crazy deals some baller on a budget in Harrison

Barrance if he does end up coming back to the Toronto Raptors because the only reason that You’ even contemplate this is if Pascal cakam is sort of a dude that you don’t want to pay and you think the cap situation just won’t work out but I mean looking at his contract he’s

Not cheap he’s not a player that’s sort of uh a complete just on a steal of a contract 17 million 18 million 19 million for the next three seasons so you don’t even get cap relief following this off year I mean why he’s older than Pascal he’s

Worse than Pascal in pretty well every aspect of the basketball game besides shooting the three and frankly I I’m not sold that Pascal is as bad of a three-point shooter as the numbers have indicated and I’ve brought this up on a multitude of podcasts and a multitude of

Videos because frankly I think he’s been asked to take too many shots from you know where he’s creating above the break sort of contested threes I mean if Pascal cakam was getting the shots Harrison Barnes was sort of Taken night in Night Out basis then he’d probably be

Shooting maybe not 40% but definitely a lot higher than his current averages show I mean his percentages have been gradually increasing since the acquisition of Emanuel quickly and RJ Barrett so the king thought they could just come in and sort of make an off around Barnes I mean maybe there’s some draft Capital

Included and Sacramento Kings first round picks were much more valuable prior to their sort of Renaissance and the the King’s age but to offer a deal like this I don’t even care of the draft Capital unless you’re getting you know four or five firsts but I feel like that

Would be something brought up in a Shams discussion you know centered around Harrison Barnes no it would be centered around a bunch of first round draft capital and we know that Messi Jerry isn’t that interested in that so I feel like he wouldn’t even acknowledge or fly all the way down to

Sacramento if that were to be the case but I mean where what world would we be accepting a Harrison barens deal but the second part of this which is interesting because again I I think it’s an embarrassing offer it just is foolishness coming from the Sacramento

Kings to think that this is a reasonable offer to the Toronto Raptors even if herder even if Davon Mitchell are involved in that package it doesn’t really make sense for the Toronto Raptors but then again you look at the second half of this and then the only

Way it ignites nights again is if Toronto comes back to Sacramento so the kings are essentially done reaching out to Toronto about potential Deals they said they’ve given their cap offer and Harrison Barnes and clearly that leaves one player to be off the table and that is Keegan Murray so I’d imagine Messiah

Jerry probably went down there thinking okay the Kings really want Pascal the negotiations the talks probably got some wink Winks like oh yeah we’re about to give you a juicy offer a nice little deal and then it’s Harrison Barnes Ms Jerry probably thought Keegan Murray could potentially be involved in that

Package and it’s probably the only reason this deal was taken seriously whatsoever and I guess it’s off the table and the Kings aren’t willing to even negotiate or talk about Keegan Murray being in a potential package and I mean I get that Keegan Murray is a

Young star I get that he is a player that you wouldn’t want to give up but you have to come to these trade negotiations with a bit of Common Sense and maybe this is all a leverage a power play you know in trade negotiations cuz clearly they’ve been talking clearly

Talks have been ramped up at a certain point but maybe this is all sort of postering through the media postering through Shams Shams has been a guy that has been you used as a tool a lot lately in terms of uh negotiating in the public sphere but the fact that Sacramento

Kings sort of uh are engaged in these trade discussions and are writing it off saying kikam Murray is involved it’s just a waste of time people say missu Jerry wastes people’s time in terms of trade talks and rumors and things like that always evaluating well you know

What the kings are doing it back to the Toronto Raptors here now at this point and it it’s pretty pretty crazy it’s pretty I don’t know I I was shocked to see that that was the thing that was getting everyone hyped about including myself I was you know the way it was

Worded the way these reports were coming out me it seemed like a deal was imminent and the Kings maybe gave in on a ke and Murray sort of package but frankly I still of the belief that I don’t want to trade away Pascal cakam I know there’s going to be people in the

Comments saying hey Ben why you always talk I my stance has remained pretty well the St same regardless of the reports that have come out unless we’re we are blown away with a deal unless we are sent something amazing I I’m not interested in dealing with Pascal give

Him his max give him whatever contract he’s sort of looking for and run forward with it in the future but let me know what you guys think because frankly the the rumors are getting pretty wild here now at this point we just played the Golden State Warriors in fact we crushed

The Golden State Warriors and they look like a team that is currently in shambles if we do make a trade with a Golden State Warriors and kaminga back it feels like Gary Trent Jr will probably be Happ to be on his way out given the way they collided in the

Recent game I mean the Mavs have been linked a little bit more as of late as well they’ve had one of the top odds as well I mean you know unless we’re getting Lively there at the center position I’m not that interested in a lot of what they have on the roster I

Mean I am really encouraged by what we’ve seen with this Raptors group we got a tough test against the LA Lakers tomorrow night so we’ll see how that all shakes out but I want to know how you guys are feeling are you guys swung a little bit by how the Raptors have been

Playing as of late because frankly with the exception of that Kings game where I we played really well in that game as well the Kings just hit some ridiculous shots we’re hitting some dumb stuff the Kings the the Toronto Raptors were having absolutely crushing it under this

New era of basketball so let me know what you guys think in the comments section down below you guys the best make this far again subscribe to the channel if you’re new here means the world to me anyways I’m signing out cheers

The Toronto Raptors were reported to be ramping up trade talks with the Sacramento Kings a couple weeks ago and now a new report has revealed what the Kings were really offering. Ben Rogers breaks it all down!
