What's new

Pleiss Traded to Philly!!!

DX has FIVE PG's going lottery.

And they have the talent to warrant it. I just don't see THAT many going lottery and a couple slide.

That's why I suspected the Hill deal was so smart. Allow Exum to come along slowly and without pressure so we, hopefully, get to see what he will become. If he shows a lot of promise, stay the course. If not, we use pick(s) on one of the stud PG's.

Who do you think drops out? Seems like at this time every year the DX mock has one guy wildly overrated. Last year was Malik Newman and the Chinese center.
 
Dropping means they suck. IDK why you want someone you love to end up sucking.

Not often someone is projected lottery going into their Freshman year, drops out of the lottery, and ends up being a good player.

IDGAF why he drops. Maybe he misses 20 games due to injury. Maybe his body is "too frail" compared to the other guys. Who knows. And IDGAF. I just want that kid.
 
Did you miss the part where I said IDGAF?

Cool, you sound super ignorant, but w/e.

I want a player who is good and plays well, or somehow gets overlooked because he isn't a big name/in a big program. I don't want a UK "star" who plays so poorly he drops to the late first round. The way you sound about Fox is the way a lot of people sounded about Andrew Harrison a couple of years back.

*I'm in no way dissing Fox. I have no reason to believe he will fall in the draft due to poor play.*

Can anyone name an entering Freshman who was mocked to go in the lottery, then fell out (and I dont just mean like 15th) but a significant drop to the 20's, who ended up being a good NBA player?

Again, IDGAF.

He has sacrificed Himself to bring us to the promised land.


So it has been written, and so it shall be

And think of how much Unreal taught our players on how to properly shoot. Honestly probably the only reason he was ever brought over. Player shooting coach.
 
Kanter deal was great. We had no intent to give him a long-term deal, he did not fit our philosphophy and was disgruntled, so we gave up nothing, got more developmental playing time for Gobert, and possibly got a future first round pick next year.

Free agents walk for nothing all the time, which was our next best alternative to this deal.

The mistake was drafting Kanter, (or one could argue not developing him properly) not how we managed damage control.
Except that the Jazz went out of their way to take back the platter of garbage they got instead of Reggie Jackson.

The Jazz bungled just about every conceivable thing you can think of with the Nets pick they got in 2011. Totally and completely biffed it. This would be a pretty damn fine punchline if we still weren't eagerly waiting for the last asset in the trade to turn into two 2nds which will likely also amount to nothing.
