Who would of thought the All-Pro defender we traded for would become Mike Bibby, smh

We gotta make changes.

Ha! RE-EVALUATED in 2 weeks for Dre means he's probably out at least 2.5 months based on past experience. maybe even for the rest of the season. 

Right after trade deadline 

If I knew DJM would be this bad defensively I would have vetoed the trade. I think this team is better with Huerter. And the fact we gave away quality future picks for him irks me. Hunter and Bogi are playing some of the best ball of their career and if they can get Lauri do it. We should of got KAT this summer though.....

Big O? WHO? Go TRAE

For what its worth, Jazz fans on reddit said Quins systems are really complex and took jazz players a good amount of time to learn them if they ever even could.

 

Good thread

Currently the 4th ranked offensive in the NBA with growing pains? I'll take it. I'm more concerned about Quin creating a top 5/10 defense without a Gobert archetype. 

BEAST

Bogi > DJM

DJM playing tonight like he want to live in NY

AJ can't be worst than Matthews/Mathews? Keep JJ and Trae everyone else on the block IMO. Team is poorly constructed. I still have hope in Quin

What is the purpose of getting Jerami Grant? 

 

 

Are we trying to add ANOTHER smallish combo forward that can't ( or won't ) rebound?

Jerami is a better shooting version of 12.  But shooting is all he does.  He doesn't rebound, or pass well enough to make his teammates better.

Meanwhile, Siakam is a 6-8 guy that is the size of Bruno, but may be the best transition big in the league.

 

 

Siakam has all around talents that has enabled him to make 2 All-NBA teams.

Jerami Grant would struggle to make an All-Pacific Division team.

Jerami is a better shooting/scoring/defending version of Hunter agreed. Jerami is an elite 3 pt shooter (one of the best in the league) and he can he create his own shot better than anyone not named Trae on this roster. He can also defend 4 positions well. Of course i'm not for overpaying for him like we would with Pascal, but if Portland wants to give us a good deal i'm all for it. Pascal would force JJ to convert to SF and is currently shooting 26% from 3 point range. Better player? Agreed. But not a better fit given his value for this roster.

I like Lauri but he may cost too much. Give me Jerami Grant for cheap at this point over Siakam. Might can actually get picks and value instead of getting fleeced by Masai. Fits Jalen much better because he can play SF and shoot. Also, 30 million seems more movable than the 50+ for Siakam (though I dislike both contracts).

Just embarrasing

Griffin in the dog house for real. Mathews?

Hate to see this for Jalen. He was having a career year.

Trade Hunter for a bag of beans and the right to re-sign Ay Bey Bey?

Murray wants to be the man so bad

MURRAY GIVE IT TO ICE TRAE CMON MAN

TRAE NEEDED THIS GAME
