Nico should have traded Luka for Gobert

Randle legacy game?

Gobert legacy game

Physically he’s a different build than Collier, but I think he has the same “if he can shoot” upside and while his shot doesn’t go in it may be less hopeless than Collier’s.

Tagging @SoberasHotRod because I know this is one his guys. I saw some numbers on twitter that Traore’s rim FG% and Rim rate are actually much higher than I expected. Given his very low 2FG% I thought this might be a case of shooting tons of non-rim 2’s. But if the numbers I saw are correct...

Should Will Riley be seen in the same was as McNeeley? I always forget about him. I think the consensus believes that McNeely is a good defender, but how sure are we of that? I think Riley may be the more promising offensive player.

That's another good point. While it's not my cup of tea, putting a heavy emphasis on transition, isolation, and C&S is not totally illogical. He just does a poor job of assessing who is actually good at those things. We should consider efficiency and volume together, but if I had to bet, a...

The problem is that he's using synergy percentile, which is just based on PPP. A higher percentile doesn't necessarily mean a better isolation or transition player. It's kind of like basing your evaluation of shooting solely on 3FG%. If you don't consider context/volume, you would come away with...

My impression is that they want to become Bulls west. The owners don’t care about the Pelicans, they care about the Saints. I think they want to spend at least money as possible and be non terrible. They don’t strike me as a franchise who is motivated to do anything it takes to win a...

I think what Cy is implying is that we trade for “the most favorable” of the NOP/MIL pick. It just works like any other pick trade, but the swap must be performed first before the trade.

I love David Locke, he is not a great numbers guy even if he wants to be considered one.

The first years pretty much mean nothing to the Jazz as well. If we expect the cap to go up 10% during these next 5 years, it stands to reason that longer deals are advantageous to a team and will get better over time. Cap goes up 10%, but contracts can only go up 7.5%. So just based on that...

I could maybe see NYK, BOS, or MEM. They have “Star” players that could be going back the other way. But the three you listed should be considered the leaders. I don’t think we’re anywhere close without Flagg.

We can trade with them…but it’s not like we know something they don’t about MIL. No different from trading for a different pick that we think may be good. The only extra incentive here is if you try to move it MIL for Giannis so they can tank. Tanking is a bad move for them IMO.

Seems like a given with the new TV/media money and cap smoothing….but I actually don’t know how long will last.

So if we get Flagg, we’re definitely keeping Lauri and gonna lose our pick next year right? Derrick Favors sends his regards.

I still don’t know how WAS was able to get picks for quality (albeit washed) players in Middleton and Smart. Helped us get the number one tank spot, so I’m not complaining.

I thought it was 6 months, which is why there was an opportunity to extend and get traded this year before the deadline. But Lauri decided to sign a day later. That made him ineligible through the trade deadline, but not necessarily the summer.

It’s just an important indicator for me, so I’m happy that others are talking about it too :)
