What about something along the lines of Keon for Achiuwa from Toronto. Gives us a solid big and them a young guard. These are the types of moves I am expecting this season.
Sure, why wouldn't the Raptors trade us the guy who just led them in scoring/rebounding in their win over us for a guy who can't get minutes on our roster?
is that sarcasm or cynicism? or a mix of the two? I'm not sure either way it's kind of a bad look for a moderator. You guys should be above the shit-flicking fray...measured responses. Moderation around here already has to cart around the burden of a pathologically weird Sly who is actually able to accomplish the cyber version of leg-humping himself. So the rest of you guys need to display maturity and neutrality instead of wallowing in the imbecile gutter with guys like me. That's the least you should do considering the salary you get from S2
Thanks for your input. I think I prefer my moderators to be humans rather than vulcans/robots (both of which, admittedly, my wife has called me at times). I'm not going to get personal with anyone or perpetuate a pointless argument, but I see nothing wrong with occasionally pointing out a silly post, mod or not.
Or they could trade us the guy who was only able to get 4 points and 2 boards against us back on the 8th.
...in his 4th game back from injury. That game was a good launch point for him, though--he's averaged 14.5/7.5 in 27.6mpg since that 1/8 game, and seems to be playing the best ball of his (young) career. My point is, his trade value is most certainly a lot higher than Keon's.
And my point is we are more likely to go after lower tier players like him over people like Siakam. Maybe we throw in a second, or it is someone else besides Keon, but I think we will go after younger and cheaper players.
If we are just trying to balance the roster but basically only do that by upgrading the bench, then he's the exact type of guy we would want behind Jerami and Nurk. I don't think he can be had for Keon but who knows. I also hope Joe is going to be a lot more ambitious than just trying to make our bench make sense.
Just read that the Vegas odds of OG Anounoby being traded changed from +200 to -500 Someone in Vegas has inside intel that he gone
Washington has one of the best records in the NBA since around Christmas. (5 losses) NBA radio this afternoon seemed to believe that Kuzma will be traded despite of it. The reason is he is a free agent this summer and has indicated he won't resign. They were saying he wants to play for a big market team. I would not give up too much for him because of it.
I am more and more convinced the only action will be to trade Hart for a backup center type guy. Still reading Ant is untouchable. smh
The problem with "still reading" stuff is generally, it's said once, and then everything else you read is repeating that same initial reporting. So around the deadline, it looks like Hart's name is coming up a bunch, but really it came up once.
Like @RR7 was saying, no one is saying that they have sources saying Ant is untouchable they are referring back to that initial report. The reports since then have us willing to shop anyone except Dame and last reported Grant but with reports today of Grant saying he's definitely going to wait until the off season to make up his mind (who knows what has been said behind closed doors) I would think everyone besides Dame is available. I'm prepared to be pissed because I do think it's likely that Ant will still be here after the deadline but I don't think it's irrational at this point to still have hope that we move him.
Don't favor trading Hart but how about this? Hart for Bey & Noel from Pistons. Give's us a 3&D and bu 5 that can rim protect.
Saw a mock trade that had Hart going to the Knicks for Toppin and Hartenstein. Would that address some of the size issues and depth the second unit is currently experiencing?
