The Handoff: Should the Kings have made Mavs moves at the trade deadline?

The Handoff: Should the Kings have made Mavs moves at the trade deadline?

Kenny carway in the building for the handoff uh Kenny we’re just talking Javier and bille gave us gave us a buzz on the farmers dog talk line uh Healthy Life starts with healthy food shout out Javier we yep um he basically said hey should can we revisit why the Kings

Didn’t go get Daniel Gafford and PJ Washington and we were just kind of talking like yeah they’re they’re they’re good players and they’re helping Dallas for sure but when you look at what they gave up I don’t think they make the Kings significantly better than what we what we’re looking at right now

No and I’ve said a number of different times um with the Kings you got one move to make make it your best move you know what I’m saying you got one like with the assets you have and the contracts and the draphs and all this other stuff

You got one move to make and I’m not making that for Daniel Gafford or PJ Washington you know what I’m saying it’s going to be for somebody that I feel can help Elevate this uh this franchise to a championship level yeah so like that’s the way I’m looking at the way the kings

Are are situated right now um Daniel Gafford would have loved to have him he’s he’s been great for Dallas um PJ Washington has done really well as well so you know yeah I’d like to have him on a team but um I don’t I don’t think I

Don’t think what was needed to get them uh is what the Kings have right now I agree yeah that and I I would just point out too like Gafford would play 13 minutes a game on the Kings yeah like that’s it he’s G to back up one of the

Best players in the NBA well and then what’s Alex Lyn GNA do you know yeah at ja kind of like Alex Lyn man Alex Lyn is playing he’s played fine he’s played he’s played perfectly fine since he’s been getting consistent consistent rotation minutes it’s been good been

Fine yeah yeah what’ you think of last night tough man tough one I mean you know number one Dallas uh I think by the end of the third quarter they had like 18 threes maybe 16 18 he couldn’t miss it’s going to be tough to it’s

Going to be tough to beat the team that that that’s shooting that way and then especially when you’re following that up with I think at that time they had like six threes the kyss so you know was just one of those things they hit a bunch of

Uh bunch of shots Kyrie was doing his thing um nobody for the Kings could really get cooking it was one of those games that was one of the first times in a long time I’ve seen them like not play well the Kings yeah but um it happens it

Happens I know a lot of people you know look at this as an indictment on what’s going to happen for the rest of the season and where they are it’s a game man in Dallas game they played really really well the Kings didn’t play well

See you on Friday yeah you’re in a spot where that doesn’t ruin anything you go in on Friday you’re literally in the same spot you were yesterday I I I said yesterday I said um maybe you know behind closed doors maybe there should should be uh gentlemen’s agreement

Between the Mavs and the Kings to split because really that’s what both of them I guess Dallas to get the tiebreaker they want you know both want to yeah but more than anything both just don’t want to lose to because that would put you way behind the eightball so like let’s

Let’s help each other out here let’s split and then we go on about our merry ways for the rest of for the next 10 games or something like that so so Nei so neither team is is is losing in this situation hopefully somebody gets on the phone

Today says hey we still got that deal in place the Kings Wi on Friday J Porter knows a guy yeah I I would point out too sh sh calling up guys um like there’s just the way that that these two teams are like where they are at in the standings it’s if the

Two teams tie like if the Kings lose again on Friday the Kings can easily make up the two games and they could tie again and then it goes down to division record it goes down to conference record and these guys are going to be right next to each other no matter they’re

Within like a half game of each other one way or the other on all of the tiebreakers so just because you lose a game I you certainly don’t want to lose a game but just because if you do lose this game that doesn’t mean really anything the Mavs are playing really

Good basketball right now too you gotta yeah they’ve now won eight of nine yeah four in a row they they they’re playing really good they’re locked in yeah yeah I just I got that was my first time watching Kyrie in person Kyrie a little different Kyrie is that

Man I I know people don’t like him for other reasons but that’s one of the greatest basketball players I’ve ever seen ever SE his teammates love him they love him I mean his whole career essentially like everywhere he’s gone they go ask if you if you hear any NBA

Player talk we got like 30 seconds you’re NBA any NBA player talk about the best players in the league every single one of them is like Kai well yeah and guys that they like to be a teammate with yeah yeah he sits up everybody what

Do you guys got coming up we got Kings obviously and we got A’s I don’t know if you guys are going to like what I have to say again yeah got some nasty text yesterday hey tune in to something else other than DLo and
