I think I’d have been happy to do more shuffling. There were quite a few good players in that draft.
Sorry. I had Ball as the second best PG. Here are my top ten from that draft crop... Fultz 94 - drafted first, we'll see Z. Collins 93 - he's...
I mean, and it goes without saying that ditching Russell was stupid. Getting rid of Russell and pretending it could be Ball’s team was what I...
I wanted to trade the pick and out De’Aaron Fox next to Russell. And grab Zach Collins later in the first.
Agreed. That’s still a ton of money, but I think I had him the second best prospect in his draft class.
538 data... Russ was in the "up-and-comer" category with a five-year value of 93.9m. He doubled his projected wins above replacement and now has...
538 data... Ingram was a 92.1m value, an up-and-comer. His value dropped to 87.0m.
538 data... Hart is another guy with interesting value. Five-year value was listed at 79.4. It's up to 92.2 for the next five seasons. Category:...
538 data... Randle's value was $55.9 (Five-year) coming into this last season. It's now up to $88.0 over the next five. Nice pick up for the...
I want to double down on both of these. He has issues. I can't remember anyone with this many stupid fouls in so few games. Less than 200 games...
This is too good... https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/carmelo/rajon-rondo/ Five-year value: NEGATIVE $5m. Category: SCRUB
538 data... Zubac's 5-year value was $20.6m going into last year. It's up to $47.6m. He's still considered a "rotation player."
538's projections are out. Lonzo was given a 5-year market value of $269.6M last year. He had the 9th highest 7-year value of all players. That...
That organization has been pretty shameful over the last few years.
I think he's an average player who might be an above average player, but I also think that's unlikely. That's not bad at all for 27th pick....
Harden was better at the same age. Kuzma couldn’t get to the playoffs. This doesn’t help the argument.
Not if the trades leave a team without first rounders in consecutive years or even MAY, so regardless of protections.
Sure, those are two facts about Harden. But at age 23, Harden averaged 25.9 points, 5.8 assists, and 4.9 rebounds. He also has never shot as...
In the sense that every player is potentially an all-star I guess. Kuzma is an atrocious defending volume shooter who is incredibly average and is...
But how P&G-tinted are the goggles here? He's going to be 22. He averaged 20.2 MPG last season with the Clippers. Horford got 25m -played 29 mpg...
