Plausible destinations for our vets?

We trying to build Wizards West?

 

We got the better dressed version.

 

Kuza interest nonsensical

 

LOL...that's not really "lowering the price"

a "promising prospect" may be more valuable than a protected 1st

 

Joe getting desperate . Personally not convinced there are good spots for these guys. Thybulle seems like the most likely followed by time lord

 

LOL at 1st AND a "promising". I'd be ecstatic if we got a first and an expiring/s given his contract

 

There are a lot worse contracts. A lot. Embiid, George, Murray, Beal, Gobert, Dame…

 

I do not think Cronin is getting desperate more like for one of the first times that I have seen is being real and prolly realizes that this team needs to get rid of a vet or two and just let the younger players run to see what they have. On paper even outside of Flagg this draft looks promising so this team needs to find out if the young players are building blocks / keepers or just players who can be moved. If you ask me on each young player this is my 1 sentence or so take on the player .....

Ant -- Young Vet -- He is kind of at a in -between place not a true vet but not sure a young player either but I am leaning towards moving off of him cause I think he at times has given up but might be wrong.
Clingan - KEEP he is the future
Scoot -- He was NEVER going to be a Dame type player and Cronin was a fool if he thought he was but I still think he could be a good player ala Derrick Rose lite so he should stay .
Sharpe -- He is an enigma cause we can all agree he has a shit load of talent BUT for some reason he is passive for like 50 to 75% of a game -- he would be the biggest winner from a Grant and/or Ant Trade -- PERIOD
Camara -- KEEPER -- unless we are trading him for a top 30 to 50 player who is under 30 then -- KEEP at worst he is a Kersey type player
Murray -- I think he is better then most think but his ceiling is a rock solid role player who might show flashes from time to time.
Rupert -- He needs more time and I think he was the most hurt from the Deni trade BUT would be the 2nd biggest winner if both Ant and Grant were traded --

Vets --

Grant - -Trade ASAP for a 1st and a solid player with no more then 2 yrs on his contract
Ayton -- For anything -- if a team offered a dried cow pie (turd) and a gift card I would take it that is how much I want this loser off the team and outside of the Dame stuff THIS is Cronin's worst move -- PERIOD
R. Williams -- I would be open to keeping him at least for this season to mentor DC then in offseason and hopefully he can play in 50 games or so and will have some value to trade in offseason.
Thybulle -- Anything that does not bring in a bad contract in return.

Cronin is a complete joke of a GM but I think even he is starting to realize he messed up now can he correct his mistakes .... I sure hope so cause if he cannot this team is screwed for the next year maybe two EVEN if the Blazers win a top 3 pick.

 

I love these type comments from random people who have no understanding of the complexities of building a small market team. I include myself, as I also have no experience in the front office of the NBA. I can understand if one gives a specific example, like I wish he would have drafted a different player than Scoot, which of course would include naming scouts, and others in the front office who collaborated on the decision. It would also involve a lot of Monday morning quarterbacking, which can be applied to 80% of all draft picks. Then we get to Dame, and whether that was a bad decision. Is Dame a player who can lead a team to the finals? Sure, if he has a superstar next to him. Did Portland have a chance to bring in a superstar? No. Trading him was the only choice. Any case, if taking cheap shots at a guy who has reached the highest level of his profession makes you feel better...Well, there is something deeper to look into.

Just a bunch of humans trying to navigate their journey to a good life. No need to tear people down.

 

A thousand likes, but I have to ask....

are you new here?

 

Bemac -- I am far from a random so putting me down like that is not cool but you are entitled to your opinion and I can see your points but that is the great part of this forum we all have our own opinions and are free to share them.
