love to get brogdon, don't see why indy considers this. maybe because he's injury-prone? i'd consider THT and kuz for brogdon, tbh. he's still got a lot of years left. rozier sounds more realistic. but is that really what you want? rozier's a lot like schroder, imo. anyway, charlotte has a glut of guards and not enough minutes to go around. they probably need to move on from rozier or graham, and i'd take either in the right deal, i suppose. kuzma may also fit their needs better. though i think we'd be robbing peter to pay paul, as like it or not, kuz was probably our best big wing defender (aside from AD, who may be our best defender at every single position).
Rozier is more of a lateral move, I agree. However, while he doesn't get as downhill as Schroder, our peremiter shooting would be improve. Brogdon is more my archetype, though.
a semi star to compensate for another injury scenario to one of the star, a semi star player is someone id consider thats capable of getting 18-20 on consistent basis without having bron or ad around to set them up, kuz n kcp are way to streak to be valuable in long run
But who? That’s what is being asked. Who is realistically attainable that fits the bill? If our role players are so terrible, who’s lining up to give us a consistent 18-20ppg player for them?
i didn't say they are terrible, i said they're to streaky/inconsistent...theres always a way to get something done and if you werent aware kuz/kcp has already been shopped, bunch of insiders have been saying kuz has been shopped hard but you're correct in that it will be difficult to find this "semi-star", doesn't mean Rob shouldn't continue shopping them both
yes. exactly. i mentioned harrison barnes a bit ago. he's sort of the rich man's kuzma 16/7 on 50/40/80, good positional defense. but he makes north of 20 per, right? and i'm not sure anyone would even call him a semi-star. does sac consider delon wright/barnes for kuz/kcp? probably not.
why so focused on Barnes? i don't know know who this semi-star is but ill see what rob has up his sleeves..... but standing pat with minor changes is a receipt for another poor season if we're banking on a fully healthy team thru out the entire season/playoffs
well, one reason is that it's an actual name of an actual player instead of just whining vaguely about getting better? what does it mean to bank on being not fully healthy? like i'm supposed to plan for one or both of the franchise cornerstones to be unavailable for large chunks of the season and/or playoffs? which team did that effectively? ever? this year's brooklyn nets? no problem, just get three 1st and 2nd team all nba players and call it a day! so, yeah, i'm banking on AD and lebron being good and able to play. if not, then i guess i should be trading them before everyone else finds out.
Well, if we take a look at last year; we flipped Green for Schroder and a 1st, which at the time was thought to be an ungrade. There's players that get dealt every year. We just have to see what's available during the summer. For those of us that want to move Kuz, Rob is very aggressive. Don't be surprised if you see him gone next year. Then, I can complain about the next players he's dealt for..... In reality, that's how it goes as Lakers fans. We're s spoiled bunch. And Rob will make something happen. Believe that.
you dont know who will be available nor when, its a vague request but it needs to be addressed, these inconsistent role players will kill their chances even with healthy star player and yes I wont be banking on a healthy AD for the season let alone playoffs, theres better chance Bron stays healthy
Yes, it does. He needs to go. I'm not sure about this summer, but he isn't finishing his contract here. Bye Kuz
I don’t understand why you have it out for AD so bad. Even before we traded for him you were going on and on about how he wasn’t worth it because he wasn’t a winner. Then he comes here and we win the title in year 1. Now we have a bad year with injuries from our 2 main guys, and some key guys along the way and suddenly you hate him again. I don’t what the dude did to you but the anger is pretty remarkable. Do you miss Ingram, Ball, and Hart that much? Can always become a Pelicans fan.
