^ yes, but Barnes is 2 years younger (room to improve) and won't cost us Clarkson and the #1 pick. Am I wrong in saying Butler isn't a proper 3&D...
^ We can agree to disagree on Butler. IMO he's not even a legitimate 3&D player. He only shoots 31.5% from beyond the arc!! Perimeter shooting is...
Hmm, I'd like to see a system being run before we could conclude on individual deficencies.
No disagreement there. Clarkson is the one I would ship first. If I didn't have an attachment to Randle I would ship him too for Butler. But #1...
I can name ALOT. There are three already on GSW that are clearly better than him (Curry, Thompson, Draymond) Then the superstars like Durant,...
I understand where you're coming from. But the #1 pick is HUGE, and it would be wise for our FO to take a look into what kind of talent Ingram or...
I think that's where we disagree. I don't think Butler is a Top 15 player (which by definition would make him a franchise player) As I said...
I'm not sure you can compare this team to the Lakers in the late 90s or the Cavs last year. In either case, those players came as FAs. You're...
Probably true, and I'd love him as a Laker too. I'm not sure if he's worth Clarkson and #1 though. That's nearly half our future. If we're talking...
Hmm... is Butler a good enough talent to draw free agents though? I see him as a 2nd or 3rd best player on a contender. Definitely not a #1...
@therealdeal I like most of your scenario except for that bit about trading the #1 and Clarkson. That may be a bit too much for a second-tier star...
The problem with our backcourt is that both of them are shoot-first SG's.
Great to hear the damage was kept to a minimum. As for the boo's from the fans, I'm OK with it. It's just a simple message --- "we don't like...
Again, Julius is untouchable.
OK D'Angelo was sincere in his apology. I'm glad he acknowledged and owned up to his actions. That's all I could ask from a 20 year-old kid who...
Julius is still untouchable to me. Everyone else, sayonara.
Yeah I was pretty vocal about how big a deal this was. It's totally unexceptable. I don't blame his teammates for shunning him either. These guys...
It's about timing I think. We're in Year 2 of our rebuilding phase and it's way too early to start trading assets. Maybe in another 2-3 years we...
I completely disagree. Teams that have the patience to develop and build around their young core tend have a longer span of success. (dynasty in...
The key word is "currently." You're right, Julius has lapses but D'Angelo is a bit ADHD. He is talented no doubt, but his focus is everywhere and...
