00:00 It's trade season in the NBA.
00:02 Steph Curry and the Warriors
00:03 certainly linked to a lot of rumors.
00:05 And I'm joined now by the fantasy exec,
00:06 Corey Parson and our Ben Pickman
00:08 are gonna give me an NBA trade they wanna see.
00:10 Corey, let's start with you.
00:12 - Let's start off 2020 NBA season
00:15 with a new super team in the Western Conference.
00:17 A super team that was the old super team.
00:19 How about Bradley Beal to the Golden State Warriors?
00:21 Golden State Warriors obviously have
00:22 the second pick in this year's draft.
00:24 That's a big trade ship they have out there.
00:26 Bradley Beal, listen, John Wall will be back.
00:28 Washington needs to go in a different direction.
00:30 Bradley Beal had a career year last year,
00:32 averaging 30 points.
00:33 He has yet to make an NBA All-Star team.
00:35 He'll definitely make one if he lands
00:37 with the Golden State Warriors.
00:38 Let's bring that super team back to the West
00:40 and see how the Lakers handle that, Robin.
00:42 - Well, the Warriors certainly wouldn't be short on scoring.
00:45 Defense may be another issue there.
00:47 Ben, what's your trade?
00:49 - I'm going with Drew Holiday to the Nets
00:51 for a bunch of reasons, Robin.
00:52 You know, he's gonna cost less, first of all,
00:54 than the Nets, say, acquiring Bradley Beal.
00:56 And we've heard those rumors a lot
00:58 this off season, but Holiday is 27 and five.
01:00 You know, he's only 30 years old
01:02 and he's under contract at least through this season
01:04 and a player option through next season.
01:06 And you know, he has been told
01:08 some of the biggest stars in the league,
01:10 they call him maybe the best guard defender
01:12 in the entire league.
01:13 You know, Kevin Durant said that,
01:15 Damian Lillard said that.
01:16 He doesn't need to play on ball the way,
01:18 say, Kyrie Irving or Kevin Durant do.
01:20 And so he's a really nice complimentary piece
01:22 that might not cost as much.
01:23 You know, we've heard a lot of trade rumors
01:25 this off season, namely, most recently
01:27 with Russell Westbrook to the Knicks
01:29 about star guards coming to New York or Brooklyn.
01:31 And so, you know, I like Drew Holiday going to the Nets,
01:34 say, more than Russell Westbrook coming to the Knicks.
01:37 - You know, both the Nets and the Warriors
01:38 are two of the more intriguing teams
01:40 heading into next season.
01:41 I don't know how this trade would work
01:43 or if it's even feasible,
01:44 but it would be interesting to see Chris Paul
01:46 land with the Clippers.
01:48 We know that they need a point guard
01:50 and there's the whole, you know, LA thing
01:52 with his good buddy, LeBron.
01:54 That would be interesting if CP3 was a part of LAC.
