Austin Reaves Discussion: Still Want To Trade HIM?

Did you read nothing of what I said as to how a player like AR who knows he is HIM and has come from where he has, to always have had to prove it at every level and now HAS at the highest level .... resoundingly tonight with his other 2/3 of a new dominant Big 3 looking on .... would likely feel now being told he can't be part of that as a starter? Plus it means money to him to be an all star (performing) caliber starter over 6th MOTY money .... after being underpaid just because of the rules, and what the team needed for 3 years. All three of these guys will have every chance in the world to handle the ball and make spectacular plays with it in ISO if the opportunity presents, or making beautiful, thrilling team ball at an all star level. AR doesn't need to come off the bench for THAT.

 

I bet he and Jules have the same wallet. Cause he too is a bad mother******

Great Austin game. Joy to watch. If he doesn't have a career night, it's a loss. Plain and simple.

Props to JJ for empowering him and putting him in this position. f*** Ham.

 

Im betting $100 Luka joins this list before the end of the season

 

Psssht …. that’s a gimme. First game against Dallas at the latest.

 

I was thinking “How is Shaq not on that list?”

but I suppose that caveat is “the last 20 years” and time has flown and I have gotten old

 

As for Austin, i love that guy. I can't believe we got Luka without giving him up
Best contract in the NBA, we have him on a huge discount for 3 years. He's a player that will fetch you a superstar in a trade... but with the way he's playing, i would have a hard time moving him anyways.

 

Does LeBron play small ball center on D?



wow, what a mess

 

Yeah I had to look again also

More than 20 adds more names to the list

 

Agreed…no way do you tell AR to come off the bench.

 

For the love of the basketball gods were going to lose a season of this crazy maybe best playmaking big 3 of all time because the lack of a league average center.arrgh

He's going to look great.with Luka

 

NO.

 

Intensive crash developmental course for Trey Gangsta Jemison next 3 months?

To back up Hayes and when muscle needed?

 

Lesson #1

 

^^^ ? Not posting

 

Lol, it's from the movie The Jerk

Must be before your time

 

No I meant it wasn’t coming up. Now above it is. Thanks.

 

Lol, okay

I was just joking about we would have to start at the first basic step with him and try to mold him into what we want

He's really raw

 

Yeah. But he also throws down lobs, can move his feet some, is athletic and a lot stronger at 250lbs. People suggest partially seriously Dwight still and Biyombo just to come in and deal out some hard fouls on other bigger centers than Hayes, while being able to rebound some and dunk some. Just a thought. I mean he really could be better than he is now in a couple months if they really worked with him and most of all continue giving him in game reps.

Which should be possible frequently for him and Knecht too .... with the Big 3 of Luka, LeBron and AR running up big leads "probably" pretty often.
