You watched Dray shoot for 3 hours? Sounds like choosing to be waterboarded Could you imagine a team which would give him a super max outside the warriors. Would one of these young up and coming squads think he's their missing piece. The Suns maybe? Maybe him with Giannis in Milwaukee? I couldn't imagine anybody paying him over 25 million, and that's already a stretch. If he could prove to be some sort of offensive threat maybe, but I don't see anybody wanting to break the bank for him. But he does get a lot of hype, maybe somebody thinks he's the keys to unlocking their team.

I do need to get better about that. Trying to balance work with family. I get in a conversation online and sometimes they get drawn out into 48hrs of back and forth.

well 3 hrs looking up him shooting in my archive and youtube. Its hard to imagine a team justifying it. But how many crazy contracts have we seen over the years. I realize teams have got much more conservative since 16...but the hate for this dynasty is strong.

I thought the super max was only if you stayed on the same team. If he left he wouldn’t get as much as the dubs could pay him. And I do think he’s the first to because of what you said. His money is most important to him and he’s already said he wants to be a billionaire. But because of that I think the market in which teams may be located will have a part in that as well. He’s a smart cat though, you don’t honestly think he thinks he can win on another team, at least not a title. Every other superstar in the league are on ball players, that takes Draymond out of the equation on offense except in the PnR, which he hasn’t proved to be able to finish consistently. He fits Kerr’s system perfectly on offense, and no one else plays like we do, and the ones that try have 50% of the shooting talent. Although I could see him also thinking that he’s a good enough b-ball player that he could score if he had to on another team and wanting to prove he’s not just a defensive player. These cats have so much money, more than enough to last generations as long as they’re family isn’t stupid. Plus after 40 they get to play businessman and investor the rest of their life to watch it grow even more. At this point, with three titles already, me personally I would take less money because I already have enough plus what I’m making on the side, I’d rather try to go down as the winningest player/team in history. I mean if they could get to 6, they’d be legends even after their death. Like you wouldn’t be able to talk basketball without mentioning them. I’d rather be remembered like that. No offense to my great, great, great grandchild, but he’s gonna have to earn a little himself, whenever that dude gets born. He’ll still have a decent trust fund. At this point it’s more about how many generations do you want to take care of and how do you wanna be remembered. There’s always a chance to make more money when you’re done, I think Klay might leave if they really low ball him. Especially if it’s to keep Draymond. I think they should offer them both the same contract. But if Klay gets offered like 15-17 per year, I really think he might leave because he’s gonna get 23 somewhere else. But if I was them, I’d be more focused on the number 6 instead of 16. Unless they think KD is leaving. If KD leaves, it’ll be a minute before they win another one, unless they grab AD

I feel you! I think there is a part of Dray that feels inferior to these other super stars. He uses it as an edge. But that same edge may have him walk out the door. Klay’s game will age better, id chose him over Dray frankly. I guess the argument for Dray would be he is a more unique player. Your right tho only we can offer the super.

Alchemy, I think it would be dope if you dropped some highlights of the players that you’re discussing. Like after a bullet point has been up long enough to read, in lieu of the screen just showing the list, it would be cool to watch some Draymond highlights while your analysis is playing, even if the highlight didn’t directly relate to what you are discussing. Either way, the clips you did have in were great and the episode was fire as usual. Looking forward to the next one!

athleticalchemy

Appreciate the feedback. I’ll try to get more highlights in. Sometimes I run into copyright issues and the video gets blocked. Love the idea of extended pod for patreon.

Yo Alch, what do you think of the Danuel House signing? Kid out of Texas A&M. Think he's a 3rd year player.

athleticalchemy

He played real well against as late in those April games against PHX. If you go back to those recaps I said he looks like an NBA player. More of an athlete than basketball player. But what stuck out to me was he was going right at KD and Dray... no fear. I think he probably beats out Pat for that spot if thats how it plays out.
