Trade Larry Nance Jr traded to Portland

Yeah. In the end we got the better junior.

 

Do I need to not agree that its a good trade now

 

You know folks, more than 1 thing can be true at a time.

It is perfectly acceptable to believe this was a good trade that helps the team, and still believe that more work is needed to build a true contender.

 

Kevin Love is next

 

One is Nance, the other is Aaron Gordon. I’ll let you guess which one is which.

 

Someone who writes for a Cleveland newspaper reportedly said that K-Love and the Cavs are making progress on a buyout.

 

I think Nance will be Nurks primary backup with Zeller as third string center who plays against bigger teams. I agree about backup PG. We need one bad, I don’t wanna see Ant or CJ running the second unit anymore.

 

Impossible. Get your reason out of this discussion.

 

Cat loves dog. Dog loves cat? What kind of rodeo is this?

 

I think zellars will be backing up Nurk.

 

This trade is fantastic in the context of it being such a beautiful example of the best Olshey can seem to do. It's such an Olshey trade that everyone in this place had talked about doing it. It improves our bench or more importantly gives us a bench player that can give us starters minutes in our rotation but it is just one of those sneaky upgrade moves Olshey likes to make that really doesn't have any risk and gives him another year where he can sit out the draft so he doesn't have to have Zach Collins nightmares all Spring.

So, he did something that improved our team, which is great but it hardly answered Dame's call for urgency as far as making us a contender.

 

I actually overheard Billups on the phone last night but only heard a word here and there. I did hear him mention Brown and DJ but not in any context. Later, I asked if they were gonna make any more moves this summer and he said "we'll see.". Super nice guy, very easy to chat up and his wife was very friendly also.

 

Unless the trade is CJ and RoCo for Simmons and good old Anthony Tolliver straight up... that's a fantastic deal for the Sixers and leaves us with Dame, Norm, Simmons, Nance, Nurk, Ant, Nas, Snell and Zeller as our rotation... obviously a drop off when we go to the bench but there could even be moves made after that.

 

We are going to sign Kwame Brown to be our backup big? Yes!!!! We are gonna get a former #1 pick!

 

I’m HAPPY.

 

Six to Midnight as soon as i saw the news.

This is huge.
