This guy actually thinks a big time free agent will willingly come to a tanking team.  LOL!!  Also, LOL at the idea that Boogie Cousins is a big time free agent.  

This guy thinks I’m gonna give him the time of day. LOL!!

I don’t want anything more than 20 wins...I want that chance to draft RJ Barett and hope we can sign Boogie or a big name FA this offseason

I think we'll be BAD this year and next year, then start making a push for the playoffs tbh. We're just so young. And honestly, with our timeline, my preference would be to filter our $40M in cap next year into picks by taking on bad expirings one more year. Then let Young, Prince, Collins, Zion (?) and our 2020 pick lead us into the sunset.

Zion ? You mean RJ :)

You really need to get a grip or at least google what you are talking about so you don't look like a racist idiot yourself. Thug's origins came from India and was brought over to England dating back to the 14th Century. The word has never had anything to do with race and has always been used to define a person or persons violent and/or criminal behavior.

No you sound like a fool..I’m black I’m not an idiot I know what White people have been doing for years with using the word thug..don’t tell me shit about what I know and live only person here that’s ignorant are the people that’s taking up for this dumb banter by the OP. FOH.

I think he's taking about attitude. Trae Young is genuinely nice guy, which makes him ready to root for. As opposed to a star that is kinda an a-hole, like John Wall for example.

Same John Wall that is active in DC communities ? Nobody have to be nice on the court..majority of these guys grew up playing ball where talking that shit is apart of the culture..that’s basketball..not none of this you get a trophy and a pat on the back good boy bullshit OP is on.

Right. But even then, I just look at his physical tools and I'm like, damn, this kid is unreal. Not just leaping ability, but strength, speed, coordination. That shot doesn't look good but the rest is something else.

He’ll go top 5 before RJ tho..the playmaking and scoring of RJ is hard to pass up he’s a 2/3 that can play the 1

I'll go ahead and say I like Zion more than Barrett from what I've seen. Put Zion at C and he can do some Draymond esque things while scoring inside. Zion would bulldoze switches.

Zion will get ate at center dude is only 6’6 and has a lot of questions about his game

Supposedly he can't shoot that well. 

His shot looked good during those duke exhibition games a few months ago..the kid is a 6’7 scoring playmaker would def be a win for us if we got him. 

Here’s one of the highlights from those games the 3 ball seem to be working fine.

Uh, do we need to rundown the list of college superstar, sure-fire top picks that don't pan out?

His wasn't a bad question.  I think he was just looking for more elaboration on the kid's game.

Go through them..an if In doubt go google and YouTube.

Is RJ Barrett even any good? 

Lol what ? Kid is going to be the number 1 pick long as he stays healthy.

It's going to take some time to jell. The L's will be plentiful at the start.

Sounds good to me RJ Barett here we come !!!!

Huerter has not looked good so far, he might need to go to the G league,

Guy hasn’t played ball all summer..def need to send him to the g league to get his legs up under him

Trae plays with a chip on his shoulder I’m sure he’ll be motivated

Actually Trae can dunk!  He threw off the back board and dunked in practice

 

Was looking for this video ..def dunks with ease 

Trae seemed really quick going in the paint yesterday..I think he has above average speed mixed in with crafty movement 

f***in ridiculous we can’t even watch the game 

Just now, bleachkit said:

Just barely. It's a Steve Nash type dunk.

Steve can dunk ? Lol

To be fair, so is Trae. Trae has no ups.

Trae can dunk tho

Nope tank it up...we need 1 or 2 of those boys from duke 

Going to come down to us picking Zion or Barett. Real question is what happens to prince if we draft Zion.

He is a violent thing. He might not have been one before he came here, but he clearly embraced the culture.

Sounds racist, I know thug is code for the N word. A fight doesn’t make anyone a thug idk maybe you just group up soft.

Except all the hype on draft night was on Marvin (despite being an unproven bench player), not the PG's.  Doncic has all the hype without being proven.

5 on 1 fight at a Hookah Club...just sayin!

Don’t care ...doesn’t make him a thug...I can easily dumb ass fans who tear up downtown areas flip cars fight each other when they team win a championship thugs...
