If we gave up Russell, it's those 27/28 and DENG. NOTHING MORE.
Even if the GM's hated him, this is a move that could have definitely been done at the Trade Deadline. At least give the Ball-Russell experiment...
No we got Brooklyn's 27.
Russell could have AT LEAST commanded a Top 15 pick.
I'm really not understanding this trade. This has to mean Paul George is in Purple and Gold today.
What the hell? Why didn't we just send him to Indiana for George? This better be part of a three way sending Deng and the 2 firsts for Moz....
Because they're going to lose outright if they do nothing. They either take on one bad contract in a deal that brings over a young prospect and...
Chris Paul. :Ingramsawinglogs:
Lengph.
RobMag would be gods if that was the deal.
Russell + Deng + #28. :Dfunny:
Ball/Russell/George/Ingram/Porzingis. :Noddingyes:
Nance Jr. was projected in the high 50's and had been scouted for years, Kennard was a "secret workout" that we had earlier. Could be someone...
Randle+#28 for Zing. That's the move.
It makes sense: [IMG]
The thing I see with Julius is this, and it's evident in the style of game he plays today. He was most definitely the big dog on campus in high...
Only since we got the #2? I was GonzoForLonzo since the tank started. :Magic Brows:
If anything Ball is going to make Russell more efficient. Less of Russ trying to force the issue trying to make a play, and focus on what he does...
Probably a promise that the teams wouldn't take Lonzo so that he falls to 3 or 4. We wanted the cake and to eat it too.
Unless the return is a huge net positive. We're talking a serviceable player in return, multiple 1st rounds.
