Lonzo is a transcendant talent. He's a once-in-a-decade floor general. I have very little doubt that he makes his teammates better. Whether that...
Deng is the ultimate prize for a team in their 1st year of a rebuild. 10 losses guaranteed to help the tank.
What about a late teens, low 20's pick?
More like trust the (surgical) procedure.
Would you trade JC for a 2018 lottery pick?
I want Klay Thompson so I'll speak it into existence. I think he's a much better fit than Lebron, Westbrook or George.
We are getting good character guys, no more SwaggyP acolytes if JC is dealt
I don't get the complaints. I really don't. There's only 3 ways to improve our roster. The draft, trades, and free agency. We're done with...
Yeah, to Brooklyn... which isn't saying much. A 2019 1st round pick from us would probably project in the 10th (no George, natural progression...
We don't even know the validity of those rumors. And the hostility in the Pacers clubhouse makes it impossible to judge George's true worth....
That's my point though. You value Russell higher than most folks in this thread. In reality, his value was much lower. The FO didn't feel it was...
Hmm, it's no secret you, trodgers, abeer, and zenmaster were LB's biggest dlo supporters. You'd probably be singing a different tune if it were...
Well it's hard to ignore the elephant in the room. Might as well rename this thread "Why it was a Mistake to Trade D'Angelo Russell."
Not with historically toxic contracts like MozDeng. It's not debatable that Brook Lopez was possibly (and realistically) the best expiring...
Just as a reminder, this is next year's UFA class.... let's not act like this is any other FA class. Lebron James Russell Westbrook Paul George...
Always? The only team in a worse situation than Brooklyn is Brooklyn. There were no other takers. If Russell had busted a knee half way thru the...
What makes you think there would be opportunities to dump MozDeng at the deadline next year? Where's the guarantee? Russell, Mozgov, and Deng...
fyi this is when dlo became expendable [IMG]
Agreed. In fairness, Magic/Rob are cleaning up what happened before February 2017. They can not be blamed for 1) the public criticism of Russell,...
I agree 100% [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
