    Terry Stotts can go straight to hell then

    Being able to hit an occasional 3 doesn't make up for being a complete liability in every other category. He's at best a fringe NBA player.

    Trade 2019 and 2020 2nds then. We didn't trade it all in the DEN trade. Trade Davis or Aminu for a 2nd... we could get one if we wanted. Great players available still.

    Your loss if you can't see the value in a big body that can shoot and rebound (at the very minimum.)

    Boston would be foolish not to take him.

    Hahaha. We have Quarterman, Connaughton, and Layman taking up 14th-16th roster spots. Release two of those scrubs for an actual talent available here in the 2nd.

    We wouldn't even have to get rid of one of them. Draft a 2nd round talent on a two-way talent... We're not "rookied" out.

    He's undersized and lacks any real athleticism. That "big body" won't look so big against NBA bodies night in and night out. Ask Thomas Robinson how that works. Vonleh struggles with this as well, but at least Noah is an athletic freak and can run and jump out the gym. Swanigan is 6'8 and moves rather slow compared to real athletes.

    Zach was the only guy we would have given up both the picks for .
