    Denver is weaker; they lost 3 rotation players (1 being a starter), and while I like the addition of JyMychal Green, it doesn't offset what they lost in totality...

    I would say the Clippers are better right now...

    I think Dallas and Portland got much better, too.

    And the Jazz...

    Since I've had some time this morning, here is a chart that shows their most recent production:

    [​IMG]

    As you can see, at this point in their career, Trez is better in every facet of the game except that he had 1 RPG less and FT%, but he did get to the line almost three times as much as Ibaka. Really, vs 31-year old Ibaka, it's not much of a comparison anymore. Better PPG, more assists, more steals, even a lot more blocks (!), practically even in turnovers, better shooting overall... yeah. No disrespect to Ibaka, of course, he's a fine player, jut not as good as Trez in 2020.

    ive been too lazy to go through the stats but this makes sense to me.

    Trez is taking heat for playoff performances when it’s clear the Clippers problems started from the top and rolled down to everyone. He will be utilized much better on both ends with better defenders and playmakers.

    we will see how it ends up but the pieces are there for him to be even better IMHO

    We'll adjust

    Heck, if Harrell just earns his money by keeping AD fresh at the 5 by the time the POs come, he's earned his money.

    Yeah, Gasol would be a fine addition to play a backup. Plenty of time to get in shape and he would not be asked to play heavy minutes anyway.

    Now we're talking. He's 35 and will turn 36 in Jan. Why would you waste your last 1-2 years on a bad GS team? Clippers are out of the race, staying with TOR remains a viable option. But why not go to the team that drafted you, where your brother won, and you can tie him with 2 rings?

    He's made $176 million. A few extra shouldn't mean s*** at this point.

    I think that would be my ideal scenario to fill out the 4 veteran’s minimum spots: Markieff, Gasol, Batum, and Rivers.

    The Bucks have made some solid pickups with Augustin, Portis, Forbes, and Craig. Nothing spectacular, but gives them some depth.

    So now, we're appealing? Before he didn't even bother to give us a meeting saying "f*** you". Get lost fat a**, if it wasn't for his brother (who we all love here) i would hunt him down and knock him out. Hate that fat f***.
