Merged: |0fficial| Trade Deadline

Hmm..... the Celts clearly get the best player in the deal, but the Warriors get a lot of depth and potentially a really good pick. Long term, that could be a really good trade for both teams.

 

Eh, I disagree. They would have a clear third star to go with Thomas and Horford. They lost last year because Thomas couldn't carry the team by himself. Adding Klay would take care of that. Bradley and Crowder are really solid players, but they're not stars. The pick from Brooklyn is valuable, but unless they get a surefire stud like an Anthony Davis or a LeBron or a Durant, I don't see it helping their short term goals.

 

How does that make sense for BOS? That's way too much to give up for Klay, IMO. I'd rather have Bradley, honestly. And then they're suppose to include Crowder and the Nets pick? The only thing Klay has is size, and, at least in theory, better 3-point shooting.

 

No way would I take Avery Bradly over Klay Thompson.

 

Orlando is now benching Aaron Gordon and giving Mario Herzonja DNPs.

Something needs to give.

They need to trade Vucevic in the worst way. Maybe AC + Aminu + Noah for Herzonja and Vucevic? Neil has taken Hennigan to the cleaners the last two summers with his Harkless and Napier trades. Perhaps they'd be wary.

 

Would you take Klay over Bradley, Crowder AND a potential lottery pick? That's just crazy, IMO.

 

Boston needs to do something to elevate themselves into actual contention. The roster as it's currently built will not contend. Horford isn't a scorer. Bradley isn't a scorer. They have depth at guard. Supposedly they wanted to trade for Jimmy Butler, essentially that same offer, and they couldn't make it happen. Thompson is only 26 years old, and could arguably be the best shooting guard in the league (if you count Harden as a point guard.)

Bradley is a role player. Crowder is a role player. The pick is an unknown variable, but their current rookie is a ways off from contributing, so who's to say that any other rookie would be different? Thompson is a star. Put him with Thomas and Horford and you have a really good trio.

 

Maybe as a trio, but I think Bradley has a more diverse offensive game than Klay. I also like Bradley's defense better than Klay's. Maybe I just haven't watched Bradley enough, but in the few games I have seen I've been impressed with him. Also, I hate Klay and his whiny face, so there's that.

 

Yes, i'll take two please.

 

Klay and throw ins/picks for Boogie would be scary. The numbers seem to work.

 

Well your not Danny Angie.

 

Or am I?

 

Klay is golden states best overall player, so yeah, I think this is BS.

 

I don't get the love for brook Lopez. He's older than our core and plays at a much slower pace. Rather just let Meyers develop if that's our only option.

Give me Noel, John Hansen, Nurkic instead.

 

Just another weapon. That's all it is. None of the three guys that you listed are scorers.
