Oh I forgot to mention. We should cut Byron after we send him to the draft lottery.
^ In that scenario I would be on board IF we sign Whiteside and Derozan BEFORE we trade for Butler. Just like there is no guarantee that our...
Julius rarely celebrates so it's disappointing that he's penalized for the one time he has some fun.
Yeah that's what I meant --- the chances of losing the pick are way too great. It's pretty much a coin flip.
Hmm.... so Boogie or Butler?
Wouldn't the FO want to bring in all the prospects for a workout as they did last year? There is a good chance that they would determine...
Losing the pick would be devastating..... the chances are way too great.
^ You have some great points there trd. Butler is definitely improving every year, and if the opportunity presents itself, it would not hurt to...
^ yes, but Barnes is 2 years younger (room to improve) and won't cost us Clarkson and the #1 pick. Am I wrong in saying Butler isn't a proper 3&D...
^ We can agree to disagree on Butler. IMO he's not even a legitimate 3&D player. He only shoots 31.5% from beyond the arc!! Perimeter shooting is...
Hmm, I'd like to see a system being run before we could conclude on individual deficencies.
No disagreement there. Clarkson is the one I would ship first. If I didn't have an attachment to Randle I would ship him too for Butler. But #1...
I can name ALOT. There are three already on GSW that are clearly better than him (Curry, Thompson, Draymond) Then the superstars like Durant,...
I understand where you're coming from. But the #1 pick is HUGE, and it would be wise for our FO to take a look into what kind of talent Ingram or...
I think that's where we disagree. I don't think Butler is a Top 15 player (which by definition would make him a franchise player) As I said...
I'm not sure you can compare this team to the Lakers in the late 90s or the Cavs last year. In either case, those players came as FAs. You're...
Probably true, and I'd love him as a Laker too. I'm not sure if he's worth Clarkson and #1 though. That's nearly half our future. If we're talking...
Hmm... is Butler a good enough talent to draw free agents though? I see him as a 2nd or 3rd best player on a contender. Definitely not a #1...
@therealdeal I like most of your scenario except for that bit about trading the #1 and Clarkson. That may be a bit too much for a second-tier star...
The problem with our backcourt is that both of them are shoot-first SG's.
