    I will happily bet that Dame is on the roster next season.

    Did we really give up that much that we better get back a MVP-type player in return?

    I could see a future lineup of Simons/Keon/Little. It would be insanely athletic. Put Ben Simmons with them and we probably have something.

    Not sure 6.7" 1/4 is the same as 6.3.

    I would think Joe along with Chauncey and Dame looked at this move and maybe another to come before deadline.

    But Keon is taller. So proportionately, it is similar. #BiggerPicture

    All cut from the same high flying cloth. We need a star PF. Even John Collins looks good right now.

    If Simons wasn't horrifyingly inconsistent, and if Keon wasn't a scrub, and if Little wasn't a perpetual invalid.....

    Look who comes out of the woodwork to give their much needed two cents.

    Standby while I cut together a quick package together that makes Greg Brown III look like Scottie Pippin!

    No worries, I'm not staying. You can return to your regular program of excuses, rationalizations, and sunshine pumping!

    This dude. Still trying to rationalize and bully people because you fart rainbows and see through rose colored glasses.

    This is hilarious.

    sorry no, it's worse.

    Jarryd was measured 6'1.75 with a 6'3 wingspan & a standing reach of 8'1"

    Keon was measured 6'3.5 with a wingspan 6'7.25 & a standing reach of 8'1"

    Back in the day I posted umpteen times that with Jarryd's athleticism, if he could just develop a consistent J he could be a real player. Unfortunately, be it bad form or whatever, thats not a skill thats been easily added by guys in similar situations in the past. Unfortunately thats where Keon finds himself today.

    The problem is, this 1st round pick is a major long-term project (doesn't fit our timeline) and is an undersized guard (as if we need more of those).

    Exactly. Gary Trent Jr’s 3pt % was .238 in his rookie year.
