We got the #3 pick. Discuss the possibilities.

Well.... if Scoot is gone at 2, maybe we won't trade Miller.

 

FUCK. YES.

Please gift wrap us a 6-9 do it all forward.

 

Predicted this.

 

if you accept a rumor as gospel true, then sure

I don't accept any rumor, from any source, as true right now. Guys like Fisher are spending 12-15 hours a day yapyapyapping about the tiniest bit of flotsam they see on the water. Their lives are recycling and regurgitating the whispers, speculation, and lies they hear. They are all Woj wannabe's and they are all trying way to hard to be considered insiders and experts

could Portland have offered the 3 for PG13? Sure. But how likely is it? Fisher is talking like it was the mighty Clippers who turned it down, with prejudice, after Portland came begging. I simply don't believe that's how it all occurred

 

Same. Scoot was always the superior prospect and Mitch had a press conference yesterday and said they aren't at a place to draft for fit.

 

I don't think we can go wrong with either Scoot or Miller. Provided we don't trade one for a non-star, that is.

 

My read is Charlotte moving down in a three way with us or getting Zion/Ingram. Either way Scoot to NO.

 

I was responding to the poster about why Joe would be to blame for that offer. I didn't offer anything beyond that.

 

Miller definitely simplifies things...A position of need is available with the third pick. They then have Grant/Miller/Sharpe and let Dame decide if it's him or Ant that plays PG and trade the odd man out to complete the roster.

 

I rather have Miller then scoot just because it's more what we need. We need to get longer period. Yes it it's scoot find that's means Charlotte drafted Miller. But I had the choice between two I would take miller.

 

- Jabari Smith Jr + 4 for 3
- Jalen Duren + 5 for 3
- WCJ + 6 for 3
- Myles Turner + 7 for 3
- Markannen + 9 for 3

- Draft and keep Miller

- Trade pick (Scoot) + ?? for Zion, Bridges/Clax, Pascal/OG, Bam

 

In the short term, that's basically the decision. Where that becomes vastly less simple, is the Dame/Ant divergence is effectively a decision as to whether or not to completely overhaul the entire roster and trade your 53 year franchise's most marquee and influential player... A little less simple when you bake in the ramifications

 

Yes, if it becomes some personal thing, it's complicated. It's why no business is run this way. It's my opinion that $176,265,152 covers the appreciation for his services, and now what is best for the team moving forward.

 

40 minutes of Marang? Why?

 

Amen to that Wiz --- WHY ?? -- LOL -- nxt

 

You're not wrong about the money part, but most businesses are nothing like the NBA, so I'm not sure that logic applies. Money or otherwise, Dame has been a special figure to this organization and they should and will treat him as such.
