The bottom line is that Russell and Okafor are both poor defenders right off the bat so we're basically comparing offense. If their offensive...
According to this article at 1 + 1 deal is not possible with RFA's. "...a restricted free agent must sign an offer sheet for at least two years...
^ Both are disastrous, but I'd take the quick death over the long and painful one.
Great point. Dude is a complete nutcase. Only a shrink could keep him in check.
This is how I see the high lottery picks. High floor / High ceiling Okafor and Towns High floor / Medium ceiling S.Johnson and WCS Medium floor...
That $963,000 can come back and haunt you in free agency though.
:rofl:
Isn't Towns more of a PF than a C ?
I'd still pick Stanley Johnson or Hezonja over Russell, so I'd be devastated if we pass on Okafor....
I don't know... the last 2 seasons have really hurt his legacy IMO. A big part of what made him great was his longevity and being in the...
OK next time try to keep Rondo out. Because my facial expression literally went from :) to :mad: when I read that part.
I'd still call Carroll's agent and explain the situation before Step 1. And Rondo ruins any plan, even if the rest is great. He's just that...
Yeah I agree he ended up being a gem. But I'm just saying teams had a legimate reason to pass on him on draft night.
^ I'd skip step 1. There's no guarantee Carroll available for 3 days. And please do not mention Rondo. That's just depressing to read.
Well to be fair, he did have that foot injury that scared alot of teams. I'll be honest, I was a bit nervous too. Bigs with foot injuries are risky.
0% chance we take Porzingis. Even if Mitch sees talent in him he's under too much pressure to gamble with such a prospect. He said it himself that...
^ I'd like Lin and Davis back too.
That's fair. Wish we could have both lol
Again, I don't disagree with most of your points, but I see Okafor potentially becoming a career 60+ FG% scorer, based on his current skillset and...
Good points, and I agree with your first paragraph, but I'm curious as to what your definition of 'ceiling' is? Is it Towns' overall impact...
