Or he was sending a message to the front office that he didn't learn anything from the veterans and/or coaching staff?
Kings replaced their worst starter in Harrison Barnes for a 6x All Star, 3x All NBA, Olympic Gold Medalist in DeMar DeRozan, you'll see how great of a fit he'll be in SAC
Fr, I really don't see how this is a bad move. Could they have done better? Absolutely, but given what they had available it's a solid pickup
People always going to complain fr, first they wanted HB gone, now hes replaced with a better player in Demar and people still complaining lmao
DeMar DeRozan really expanded his game after leaving Toronto. Now he’s a great facilitator, and can also work off the ball. The defense will be a concern, but the Kings have the potential to be top offense in the league.
Barnes is a legitimate 3pt shooter and isn’t ball dominant at all
He‘s Bad on defense and no off ball player. Players Like him just arent winning players. He needs the ball in his Hand, because hes no off ball player and don’t Takes much threes, which results in fewer ball touches for Fox and Sabonis. He‘s always been a player who can make a bad team better and gets 25 points a Night, which is Impressive but if you want to win Playoff Games he‘s not your guy. Im sorry to say all this because actually I Like him as a person but thats just the truth. Even if you look a Advanced Stats from the past, you will see that he‘s Teams were nearly always better when hes on the bench.
"Scoot Henderson over me!?"
-Damian Lillard in a Jimmy Butler voice, probably.
it was never scoot over dame
@@sssamui286 It was
@@sssamui286It was. By drafting Scoot, Portland essentially said we’re rebuilding the team around him.

it would be great if drafted scoot somewhere eles cause the blazers don't know how to use him

In Scoot's defense, when I travel for work the food places are what I look forward to as well, and he's getting to eat at the best places all over the US.

Ty
Wasn’t derozan’s move to the bulls in 2022 called the worst move of the offseason? Love to see history repeat itself and him having another peak season
Plus he just came off a 24/4/5 season while leading the league in minutes with 79 games so clearly age isn’t much of an issue since there’s been no signs of regression.
Such a clickbait take
The bulls were good because of Lonzo and curoso, what has derozen done since Toronto? Nothing his defence is terrible and that’s Sacramento’s biggest problem, they aren’t worse I don’t think they are any better though
Last time I checked lonzo hasn’t played for 2 yrs and Caruso is a role player.
@hoops195 and the bulls sucked
Lazy and casual take on Derozen to Kings. Their defense improved from 24th to 14th last year, but offense regressed. Gonna make them better.
Am hoop talks about basketball like he been playing for 28 years but I guarantee this dude ain’t touch a basketball in his life. All he does is read articles and regurgitates bs. His takes are the absolute worst
@@PirateD.KingLuffy lol literally
Don’t tell him nothing he doesn’t know ball at all
I’m not even a kings fan but you’re right. AM hoops is an idiot.
Then after ASB they were a top 10 defense and then last month dropped to a top 4.
The casuals don't know who Keon Ellis though so yeah.
haha Scoot Henderson is so funny
in response to "almost nothing on defense" (Derozan)
Derozan played 79 games last year and averaged 1.1 steals and 0.6 blocks. That's actually pretty good defense if you follow stats.
I was so hyped about Scoot but I was so dead wrong. He was extremely terrible and he is almost 90% on his way to becoming a bust. 🤦♂️
be patient lol. Give him 3-5 seasons, and we can then deciede if he is a bust or not
@@ekamsingh7576you being wait too generous he got 2 more seasons before I consider him a bust especially since his contract is up 2026
give him some time, my god, i hate when ppl overreact over young guys. guys like steve nash and tracy mcgrady were considered busts early on in their careers due to their slow starts. give the guy a chance before u make a stupid comment like that early on.
@@opalzzz7 neither Nash or mcgrady were top 3 lottery picks. Completely different expectations for scoot than them, considering he is supposed to replace dame, so no I have higher expectations for him and he’s has just been disappointing so far.
@@Dreamkail There have been top lottery picks who have needed time to develop. People don't understand the transition a player makes when going from the G leauge/ college to the NBA. give him more time
Hate on Demar is insane
Bro missed the all you can eat buffet 😂
Pre-season game 1, DeMar DeRozan proved what a ridiculous take this is. This is the take of someone talking about the Kings who never watches the Kings.
Demar had 15 points in his 15 minutes of playtime in his kings preseason debut. but what do I know? oh and shot 100% from the field 6/6.
Lol Scott wilding
Absolutely ridiculous that he mentioned the King's DeMar DeRozan acquisition as a negative. Come on AM Hoops you're better than that.
worst mistakes of 2024 is those hoodies and t-shirts you are trying to sell $45 for that lol
Bulls off-season honestly didn’t seem that bad to me. Despite the Josh giddey slander he’s a valuable player with potential that will clearly be more useful than injury prone Caruso down the line. Derozan had to go, but Zach and Vucecic Don’t contribute to winning all that much.
Yeah he's 22, and isn't an absolutely terrible shot. If he gets a little better on defence and ups his shooting to average (42% overall and 36% from 3) and can be slightly consistent he's a bargain point guard who isn't going to be maxed and can facilitate really well. Rubio never got that good at shooting but was an amaz8ng passer and defender and often his teams did well with him (Utah, Suns and Cleveland).
He was also getting slightly better each year until this last season where that story clearly hurt him. Now it's behind him and he can move on he could bounce back.
Also gives bulls trade options if Ball can play again. Once/if ball is healthy they can trade him for picks etc. Ball, Lavine and Vuc should bring in some decent developmental players and picks or discarded prospects (Ayton maybe for example) and make solid depth.
Scoot is permanently high
Hater on the kings
Not relevant enough to have haters 😂
@@numberyi lakers fan?
Queens 😂
Super hater
Raps not trading Bruce shortly after exercising his team option was foolish. He's hurt now and may have to sell low.
Who thinks dejonte Murray is overrated?
Yeah he was just lucky playing against lakers in 2023 playoffs
he's inconsistent not overrated
Everybody except NBA executives.
LeBalco's worst mistake of the offseason was going to Diddy Freak Offs.

I was so wrong on Scoot Henderson…😭😭😭
I’m glad my Spurs picked Victor over Scoot I would’ve been an awful GM😂😂😂
why would any sane person not take victor first
I can understand wanting Scoot over Brandon Miller (who is going to be amazing with Charlotte), but no one is not taking Wemby at 1.
Although it’s not looking good for Scoot, he still has chance to prove himself this year.
I can't continue watching a person who tries to make people addicts and lose their money. Just a bad person.
It's unbelievable that they traded Rob away for nothing. Those Spurs always make such strange moves on draft nights.
See DeRozan’s debut last night? 6/6 from the floor. Better hope this video ages well cause I think DeRozans gonna make you look like you don’t know basketball
yall doubted Deebo in the 2021 offseason, he’s gonna prove yall wrong again this year watch😂
Hopefully he’s not mid
Ok, the Bull didn't go anywhere. 🤣☠️
@@nWoPorViDa bulls didn’t give him any help either
I know it isn't a 'popular' pick for next season RoY, but I think folks are sleeping on Big Zach. Not because he will suddenly blossom into some kind of superstar, but the kid is going to get a TON of touches and that award is 100% 'individual output' based.
2:30 the scoot henderson coming off the bench was from last year
I watch these videos just so I can skip past the mid video underdog ads.
I didn't know Tyler Herro had a UA-cam channel.
The video start wrong . Mpj got a max before Bruce joined.
MPJ signed contract before his contract was up . September 27th 2021
Bruce joined July 8th 2022 .
Almost a year apart from each other .
AM Hoops keeps churning out garbage talking points like this. I don’t get it.
Also, the nuggets literally could not re-sign Brown for more than like $8 mil/yr due to league rules. Of course Brown is going to take $20+ mil/yr over $8 mil/yr.
Caruso is the best player in the NBA in terms of contract to skill. He and Rondo carried the 2020 Lakers to a ring. That man is extremely underrated
Don’t agree with the Bulls take. Zach LaVines contract is literally untradeable because he‘s earning money like a Superstar but isnt even all Star Level anymore and no winning player. Which team should want LaVines contract of 43 mil a year, espicially with the new CBA. And its Not true that he‘s Making the Bulls so much better that they‘re winning many more Games this year. With their current roaster they might be bottom 5 of the league already.
This guy has some of the worst nba takes
As a kings fan i never clicked on a video so fast, imo this is a bad take.
we will see wont we
3:58 the Tim Robinson meme impression haha
Honestly Milwaukee Need to make a trade because everyone around them in the east is getting better and Dame and Giannis can win you alot of Games but they wont get it done against the big teams. There Barely the 4th best team in the east. I dont even know if there better than Cleveland, Orlando or Indiana
Its arguable the pacers because their young and have no goats, but its Indiana a box of rocks will make it to the global playoffs if it's an Indiana basketball team.
Its arguable for Orlando because their a brick wall and Johathan Issacs is a hard counter to webby, Chet, ja, Zack eddy and pretty much every big MVP candidate. but without him the magic is worse than the heat and knicks at defense.
But there better than the Cavs for sure Aj green is just as good as every Cavs shooter, the bucks just hard carried by Giannis a walking cheat code.
I wouldn't even say 4th.
Boston, Philly, NY should all be well ahead of Bucks. Id take Cavs and Magic, plus a healthy Heat team over the bucks myself atleast for post season ranking (playoff Jimmy). Still leaves pacers.
I think Bucks were better/scarier pre Lillard trade with Jrue though.
Don't sleep on the cavs
That’s wild. Bucks has the best player in the east in Giannis. Orlando and Indiana doesn’t even have a top 15 player on their roster.
No, the Sixers asked the Clippers for PG for Harden straight up last season. They should've taken that deal, but they wanted to try a 1-213 big 3. If they took the trade, or even change it up to dump Westbrook along with PG, they would've had Harden, Kawhi, Batum, and RoCo. It would've been a much better team *AND* they would have kept their picks.
How embarrassing for Scoot🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
At the end of the off-season before the regular season starts you should do a recap of the whole off-season
Missing the pod Casey😢
Need you to start uploading again ❤
Bad takes. Rare miss.
You coookeddd. This is your best vid yet
I am convinced the Bulls org is being blackmailed AC for Giggity Giddey is criminal.
Scoot is Greg Oden's son.😂
“Josh giddy is unplayable in the post season” he’s not going to play in the post season, they not making it there 😭
Jesus loves you and may God bless you
You too❤
Thank you sir❤
Amen!
no he doesn't
@@PacoStTaco Bro.
Well in terms of sacramento its like they did not have anything better going. Its not like free agent are ding to sign there and the best players are already under the contract.
bro so high he thinking food
Good day when am hoops uploads 🔥
I didn't know I should be taking a food-cation to Portland.
I'm honestly surprised he didn't mention the KAT-Randle trade as one of the biggest mistakes
Please explain
@@jolosarmiento24 because I've seen numerous people clown on both the Knicks and the Wolves for the deal saying how it'll ruin both systems. Moreso for the Knicks, because the Wolves at least have the excuse of the 2nd apron.
For all casuals:
The kings were a top 10 defense after the all star break (when keon ellis became a starter)
And dropped all the way to a top 4 defense by end of season. Their issue was offense last season. They replaced HB with DeRozan, who was also ass on defense at this stage of his career. Hes lost quickness.
This gentleman Scoot appears to be quite baked
I fw this dudes content heavily
Unpopular opinion- the Knicks front office had the worst offseason in the long run. I know that they resigned Brunson on a discount, but the money left over could have been used in a much better way than they did. They now have 2 of the worst contracts in the league with OG and KAT. I'm not saying those guys are bad players, but they are overpaid compared to their value. I also don't understand using most of their draft picks for Bridges when he'll be up for an extension next summer, so the Nets would have to get rid of him anyway. They also lost DiVincenzo on that KAT trade and he was massive for them off the bench last year. I still think they have a good roster for next year, but with the assets they had, plus Brunson taking a payout, they could have gotten way better than they actually did. In a years players like Jokic, Giannis and Booker might be available, or even Embiid if Philly keeps getting knocked out in the second round, and New York being a big market would have been somewhere where these guys would've liked to get traded, but instead the Knicks used up all their picks for Bridges and KAT, while overpaying for OG too.
LOL 1:50 ZYWOO and HEN1
Chicago getting Giddey and not a single first from okc of all teams for Caruso is the funniest trade I’ve seen in a long time
Can’t wait for my Kings to prove these guys wrong 💪🏼
W vid keep up the grind
keep the content coming 🔥
The good food comment seems like his attempt to make a joke, n as soon as he saw no one laughed. He just rolled with it so he don't appear to dumb. But either way, he looked like a clown lol
Nobody wants to take Lavine's contract, Lonzo can barely play a full season, Nikola can be a valuable centre if he only have one year contract left.
I think Nikola to Blazers for Ayton would work. Blazers get a vet to mentor their centre of the future. Ayton gets lobs from Giddey and a team where he can be a focal point on offence for the time being.
Ball is, maybe done. If he plays again and can be healthy he's at best a solid backup PG for a contender. Giddey is clearly his replacement. Bulls I think want to get some return for him now. Lavine will be a salary dump maybe to someone with cap space or who just wants a shooter like Spurs. Problem is spurs won't want to give up assets for him either. So I assume a multi team trade will be needed and he'll go somewhere like the nets. Nets send Cam Thomas to Spurs, Spurs send some expiring vet salary and a pick to Bulls, lavine goes to nets etc.
“Food trip it is”
- Scooter Henderson probably
Tired of people acting like that was an awful trade for the bulls, Giddey is young as hell and only getting better plus you’re complaining about the trade all while complaining that they don’t trade their vets 🤦🏻♂️😂
now do a best moves of the off-season next
Lazy hate on the kings
Yeah he failed to mention Keon Ellis
What's with the water in LA? Clippers don't own a single pick through 2030 and the Lakers are STILL letting LBJ play manager, took Bronny in the draft?!?
Meanwhile, my Heat did nothing for the second straight off-season - I'm scratching my head here
Minnesota is actually tuff
DeRoz crumbled Spurs, Raptors, Bulls... How many more?
Giddey is nice, did great in the olympics and made his 3s even. He has potential and it's a great player to start off again
Can we mention the lakers not doing shit with a team that’s not a contender at all ?
And all the media always talking about the same trades over and over again when everyone knows someone like Lavine is a bad idea..
Personally I’d like seeing them taking a swing on Lonzo. And I think they should dump D’lo for gods sake
I feel like if you’re always gonna promote gambling, your vids should probably have a content warning. Love your vids but the gambling ads becoming too much
The Nuggets matched Orlando’s offer for KCP, it was not about the money. He just decided he wanted to go somewhere else…
DeRozan disrespect is unreal.
He is a good player in offense but worst in defense... Sometimes he plays hard up to 2nd and then disappears the rest of the game😢😢😢😢😂😂
This new cba is why the mavs need to be applauded and Niko should be praised! This team they built is insane. Yes it’s pre season but the grizzlies played all their starters at some point in this game and beat the mavs by 4 points. The mavs played 1 starter from last year and that’s Gafford. Luka, Kai. pJ nor klay played and they had exhibit 10 players balling out tonight 🤣. They are one of the deepest teams in the league and somehow they’re slept on AGAIN. The team that ran through the west last year has gotten leaps and bounds better and no one bats an eye. I mean this mavs team would sweep the team from last year , 4-1 at best and people really think they may not be a top 5 team 🤯🤯🤯. If the mavs somehow manage to steal a player like Brandon Ingram on a deal like they’ve gotten with every other key player, you’re looking at a potential dynasty until people begin to retire. They’re THAT good. You give them a 6’10 4 that can create their own shot, dribble, play make, shoot AND play defense…. The only thing stopping them is heath 😅 they’re gonna be a tuff out this year, but if they manage to loc this roster up( almost everyone is under contract already) and manage to add that final piece then it’s OVER. The west is going thru Dallas for the next 5 years 😂
2:48 Facts lol
The underdog ad ends at 2:12
We can't say that because when Jimmy Butler loves 76ers in 2019 for the heat nobody knew what the heck he did and now 6 years later two finals appearances
These are the worst takes I've heard in a while - DeRozan going to the Kings is a GREAT trade for them, though playing him at PF at 6'6 is silly, they should have tried to play him at SF. Giddey will SHINE for the Bulls if he gets the ball, he's a triple double threat as a 6'8 point guard. Westbrook will absolutely shine for the Nuggets; he fits in as a 6th man PG to run the bench players, and P-Swat, Braun and Strauther are all 6'6-6'7 3&D players who will absolutely fit in with this rotation.
Keegan gonna play the 4 he's 6'8" and deceptively strong.
That food bussin scoot!
What about the Lakers signing Lebron to a two year max plus drafting his son and giving him an 8 million rookie contract? I know it's great for marketing, but from a winning perspective, this is a disaster?
As a Nets fan I still cant believe we got our picks back
Derozan is a terrible choice for the kings. They had no defense and doubled down on no defense
He averages a steal
The Kings actually had limited offensive creation outside of Fox once Monk and Huerter when down so getting DeRozan actually will help a lot. Their defense was top 10 once Keon Ellis entered the starting lineup.
@@tom4life2001And by the end of season were a top 4 defense. Let the casuals talk. They watch 2-4 kings games a year when they play their favorite team, they don't know anything.
It's crazy how good this turned out!
7:37 the Clippers should be top of this list. They let PG (who’s hurt 60% of the time) go for nothing instead of pickup up Kuminga, other young guys and role players and picks. L front office
DeRozan got traded when he was a Raptor and then they won a championship.
Any plans on talking about the pre-season games? So far all I found was a video where the guy roasted Bronny for 15 minutes straight. (Dont get me wrong Bronny has negative IQ on pick and roll and seems completely lost in defense. I just wanted more content on the pre-season games)
scoot really has a way with words fr
When is anyone going to talk about how players have to take pay cuts when the league just signed a $7 billion agreement? Executive greed
The Nets weren’t going to trade Bridges if they didn’t get their picks back. They were going to try to be a middling team. They wouldn’t have been one of the worst teams in the league.
2:42 them munchies be hitting
I said it when he was drafted…never trust a grown man going by the name of “Scoot”.
I guess I'm the onoy one that likes the Pels roster rn. Zion, Ingram, DeJountay and McCollum. Thats a solid set of starters and they have some depth as well.
I'm not sure the Celtics "survived" the second apron. They're literally selling the team because of it.
