Interesting that Grimes is on there. His situation is a little more complicated. Can't be traded until Jan 15, needs to waive no-trade clause, and...
Lol yeah Ellis is devisive. Look, we are not going to get the perfect player. I mean Herb would be the closest thing to that, but thats really...
Check marks the athleticism box, the timeline box, and reliable trade partner boxes for sure. Is having a bad season both from three and on...
Getting Ellis would be like the Kiki acquisition for the Dodgers a few years back.
Okay, I get what you are saying. And I feel that we do need both. There are just not that many out there right now. You almost have to develop...
Respectfully, what do you mean? You don't think we could use somebody who is 11th I'm the NBA in steals per game and 9th I'm deflections per game?...
Are STEALS and DEFLECTIONS considered advanced analytics? Ellis is pretty damn good in both categories. This season he is averaging 1.2 steals in...
Gabe is already out of the rotation in this scenario, and that's okay. He's expiring anyway. I'm not concerned with getting Gabe minutes. Thiero...
It would be great to see Thiero and Smith get reps. Smith does seem to have a knack for getting steals and deflections, although he is not...
I agree with this. But, I do feel like he is going to be more expensive to trade for than people think. Its a supply and demand issue with the 3...
Idk I was thinking maybe Tree Rollins?
I recall some chatter of us being interested in Ryan Rollins last offseason i believe or the offseason before. Now he's killing it this year on...
Mann is 29 already and he is a low volume three point shooter. His defense is steady but his steal % is very low. I know that's not the only...
We kind of have that big defensive wing arch type already in Thiero. I completely get what you are saying in regards to prospects. Yes, that is...
Rui + Knecht + 2031 1st for Ellis + Monk or LaRavia + Vincent + Knecht + 2031 1st for Ellis + Monk
The Kings loved Jake LaRavia when he was with them.
Yeah that's what the narrative seems to be right now, but I have felt the value of the pick decreased when we got Luka.
LaRavia could be traded in three days from now.
We would be fortunate to get Ellis for Knecht + 2031 1st. I'm not putting that pick on a pedestal.
You make great points. Also, I have noticed more and more posters come around to including a 1st for Ellis. That's good, because people usually...
