Chilling? To me looks stunned and like he’s contemplating who has cost themself more millions of dollars between himself and Ja Morant. (Ja definitely). Reaves … nah he’s thinking the exact opposite about the BAG he’s assured for himself …. just wiping off happy sweat of accomplishment.
I expect us to make some moves either over the summer or during the year. I also think we will develop more chemistry with the benefit of a full camp. LeBron will have to be managed. I think he’s got some left in the tank but we can’t count on him holding up.
Hopefully we won't be out of the playoffs for most of the season. With Reaves and Rui stepping up (I'm counting with both being close to 20ppg) plus Dlo, Schroder, Max, Vando and maybe Beasley, Bamba, we have a lot of guys to win us regular season games here and there when we need to manage LeBron and AD. That will help reaching this stage with a better LeBron. A full camp will also increase chemistry. Denver has been clearly the better team. They deserve this lead.
still like to find a decent talent with beasley/mo and the 1st pick. Dlo i look to snt but not for another snt player due to hard cap issues. Clipps may still be looking for long term solution to their pg spot, dlo for powell/mann for example
S&T Dlo back to Brooklyn? He was an all star there and liked by the organisation. Maybe Nic Claxton + one of their SF’s for DLo could work. They need a PG to balance the roster and we could use a wing. I’d take Royce O’Neale personally. I doubt they’d let Cameron Johnson go. Maybe we can also take back Patty Mills? Something like: DLo (25m) and 17th pick for Claxton (9.3m), O’Neale (9.2m) and Mills (6.5m) AD / Claxton Lebron / Vando Royce / Rui AR / Lonnie / Christie Mills / Schroeder
Nets will never trade Claxton, he's one of the building blocks at this stage Much less for that package
Give me JSM’s Chicago wish trade package for DeRozan and bringing AC back. Long as we pick up a legit backup / emergency starting center.
i think mills is cooked, but i get the general idea. not sure why bkn moves claxton, even though i've seen his name in trade rumors a lot. i think that's wishful thinking from the outside. how about instead: dinwiddie/oneale for dlo? i'm in. dinwiddie/harris for beasley/dlo? i am also in on this. dinwiddie's a poor man's dlo who doesn't wet the bed in the playoffs.
we need to re-sign everyone we can re-sign and trade them for the 1-2 pieces we're missing to be a championship team. anything other than the above is a capitulation from the Front office. they can think about saving money when Lebron leaves.
Love me some Claxton, but I’m not giving up a first round pick in the deal considering how awesome our Scouting Department has been.
Never would've thought Miami would be the last one standing when you had Boston, Milwaukee, and Philly available on the bingo card. And not battling through a 7 game slug fest. No, they're likely getting there in a sweep, based on how done Boston looks. This is great
It should have been us vs Miami. Oh well... You see how one game can be the difference maker. If we won game 1 this series would have been different. C Bags got beat game 1 and they basically gave up. We have Ham to thanks for that...
The C Bags have straight waved the white flag. I wonder if they would be interested in a Russell for Brown swap...I might be convinced into throwing in 2 FRP. Lol..somebody around here told me, that Duncan Robinson was borderline unplayable.
I’ve just seen them suggesting trades with Claxton in them. They might try and trade for Lillard, could we get onto that trade and take Claxton and Grant for our 17th pick and the other first? It allows Portland to bottom out and collect 4-5 picks. DLo and Beasley or Bamba for Claxton and Grant?
I’d love to nab Brown, but I don’t see how DLo entices Boston who want to win. They’d ask for Reaves on top.
