Yeah Jeez Louise that’s like...uhhh? At least they aren’t in the West. Balmer LOL “I’d like to try this process thing they talk about”
They havent won anything yet. Took most of a decade to even get to a playoff team. If we were “in it” I think people would HATE it. I get the appeal (for whatever thats worth), but Im less and less inclined to think the process actually works.
That's a pretty big haul for the Clippers. They probably didn't want to pay him anywhere close to a max contract and weren't going to make the playoffs anyway.
Like it more for the Clippers. Tobias is fine and a solid fit offensively, but feel like he's going to get overpaid. His impact has never matched the production. It's partly why he's been traded so many times.
Great picks though and they ll probably get to keep their own as well. If they didn't want to resign him that's a huge W for the Clippers.
They have 4 all-star players, 1 of them is an MVP candidate. Not only does the process works - it worked even though they made many mistakes and failed while doing it.
Doubt he stays past this summer in Philly. But damn that's a nice team. And two firsts and Shamet for a 30 game rental is risky as hell.
They havent won anything, until they do the process hasnt worked. I agree on paper they look good. Just think the whole tank for a decade and hope you eventually hit on players is an understandable strategy but Im not sold its the best one.
For the record, so others don't have to look it up like I did. Philadelphia acquires Tobias Harris, Boban Marjanovic, and Mike Scott while Los Angeles adds Shamet, Wilson Chandler, Mike Muscala, Philadelphia’s own 2020 first-rounder, Miami’s unprotected 2021 first-rounder, and a pair of future second-rounders. The two second-round picks will be the Pistons’ 2021 and 2023 selections.
