Both Goga and WCJ are very mid. I don't like Ayton falling in love with the mid-range. Williams would be good, but idk where we stand w/that...
I guess DK+Shake+Goodwin for Goga + #25 works. I would do that one for the pick.
Bro Goga is mid.
I get not wanting to overpay, but there’s this idea that standing pat is neutral, like it preserves the status quo. That’s not really true. Doing...
So let me get this straight. Utah is just gonna hand over both Collins and Kessler for Rui, Kleber, Knecht, and a lightly protected pick. Alright...
Claxton is also switchable though. That's why he would be ideal.
That's a good point. We already traded for Williams. I wonder if part of the trade being rescinded was JJ telling Rob, "wtf you doing man, im...
Okay, so you are saying just scrap the switching scheme and go with a traditional drop big that covers for the permitter defensive mistakes? I'm...
Hopefully Utah or Brooklyn drafts a center. If we do, then we could feel good about getting either Kessler or Claxton.
We still end up with Kleber, Vincent, and Milton, which s about 26.5 million in expiring contracts. That gives us flexibility. We could use those...
Let’s actually break this down piece by piece instead of reacting emotionally. Rui is a solid player, but we have duplication at PF. He’s...
Fair enough. How about Rui + Vando + Knecht + 2027 protection removed + 2031 1st (unprotected) for Collins + #21. Way more balanced.
That's a little ambitious imo. The actual trade would probably fall somewhere between your trade and my trade. I usually tilt my trades a little...
Collins would be fine as the starting 5. But, at the very least, he would be an upgrade over the likes of DFS/Vando/Rui as back up small ball 5.
Collins is a switchy 5 that could catch lobs. As a bonus, he could shoot and rebound.
Trade 1: Rui + Knecht + remove protection on 2027 1st to Utah for Collins Trade 2: 2031 1st + #55 to OKC for #15, #24, #40. Draft #15 Clayton...
Our two biggest needs: 1) Two Rim-running, lob-catching bigs: Preferably at least one of them could switch. 2) Point of attack defender:...
I think it's time to discard the f them picks mentality. Luka just turned 26 himself, and we have new ownership. They know you can't just be doing...
There are several teams with multiple draft picks and limited roster spots. At the very least, we should be able to buy a 2nd from some team....
If you are talking about somebody in place of Rui to defend 3 then that's not a huge ask.
