00:00It's trade season in the NBA.
00:02Steph Curry and the Warriors
00:03certainly linked to a lot of rumors.
00:05And I'm joined now by the fantasy exec,
00:07Corey Parson, and our Ben Pickman
00:08are gonna give me an NBA trade they wanna see.
00:10Corey, let's start with you.
00:13Let's start off 2020 NBA season
00:15with a new super team in the Western Conference.
00:17A super team that was the old super team.
00:19How about Bradley Beal to the Golden State Warriors?
00:21Golden State Warriors obviously have
00:22the second pick in this year's draft.
00:24That's a big trade ship they have out there.
00:26Bradley Beal, listen, John Wall will be back.
00:28Washington needs to go in a different direction.
00:30Bradley Beal had a career year last year,
00:32averaging 30 points.
00:33He has yet to make an NBA All-Star team.
00:35He'll definitely make one if he lands
00:37with the Golden State Warriors.
00:38Let's bring that super team back to the West
00:40and see how the Lakers handle that, Robin.
00:42Well, the Warriors certainly wouldn't be short on scoring.
00:45Defense may be another issue there.
00:47Ben, what's your trade?
00:49I'm going with Drew Holiday to the Nets
00:51for a bunch of reasons, Robin.
00:52You know, he's gonna cost less, first of all,
00:54than the Nets, say, acquiring Bradley Beal.
00:56And we've heard those rumors a lot
00:58this offseason.
00:59But Holiday is 27 and five.
01:01You know, he's only 30 years old
01:02and he's under contract at least through this season
01:04and a player option through next season.
01:06And you know, he has been told
01:08some of the biggest stars in the league,
01:10they call him maybe the best guard defender
01:12in the entire league.
01:13You know, Kevin Durant said that.
01:15Damian Lillard said that.
01:16He doesn't need to play on ball
01:18the way, say, Kyrie Irving or Kevin Durant do.
01:20And so he's a really nice complimentary piece
01:22that might not cost as much.
01:23You know, we've heard a lot of trade rumors this offseason,
01:27most recently with Russell Westbrook to the Knicks
01:29about star guards coming to New York or Brooklyn.
01:32And so, you know, I like Drew Holiday going to the Nets,
01:34say, more than Russell Westbrook coming to the Knicks.
01:37You know, both the Nets and the Warriors
01:38are two of the more intriguing teams
01:40heading into next season.
01:41I don't know how this trade would work
01:43or if it's even feasible,
01:44but it would be interesting to see Chris Paul
01:47land with the Clippers.
01:48We know that they need a point guard
01:50and there's the whole, you know, L.A. thing
01:52with his good buddy, LeBron.
01:54That would be interesting if CP3 was a part of LAC.
