Bad rep because everyone believes it’s another way for lebron to dictate the league but there’s some real competitors out there and perhaps these guys just wanted to sign under a black agency. Absolutely nothing wrong with it but I get why people worried. I do worry about a conflict of interest though. Is the move good for LeBron or for the client?

I’m looking at the clippers trading away Paul George for Westbrick. I can see that happening if the salaries work out anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, even if he is putting up numbers it will be readily dismissed as "empty calories." Tough crowd around here. Never liked him, on record I think.

Just depends on how you look at it. Clearly lebron can’t play with every star player. Then again yes there’s probably some behind the scenes planning among stars to pair up . Not just lebron but that can happen under any agency 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Boston, they brought in Kyrie, they brought in Hayward, they brought Kemba, yet none of those guys did or are doing that much for them. It's actually the young core of Tatum, Brown and Smart, drafted and developed, that is the key to their success. Trae is under contract for at least 2 more years, so let the kids grows, if we draft right it will all work out. Unfortunately, there are more teams in win now mode than can win it all each year. But for one team, it works. Worked for the Lakers this year. And the Raptors before them. And the Warriors before them, and the Cavs before them...

I'll take the chance on still building a young core. Pass!! You may... but the Hawks won't. The draft especially at 6 is just as much as a crapshoot as anything. The hawks can't afford to waste Trey's time here by not partnering him with some known talent. Holliday will give us a team that can go to the playoffs and possibly farther. He's our Iguodala. He's a really good match with Trey and he can guard the 1, 2, & 3 position.... He's an excellent defender. Pass all you want. Potential doesn't always turn out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler Parson? Dedmon? I meant collectively not individually. My mistake for not being specific. I also said short term deals. Turner, and Parsons had 1 year left on thier deals so they were short. Parker had 2 years with a player option. Short term. Bad decisions, yes, but still short term. Dedmon had 2 second rounders attached to him.

Huh? Jimmy? MAGIC?? In any case here's why Russ wants to be traded: "Russell Westbrook wants to join a team where he can have a similar role as he had in OKC"...meaning he wants the ball. He didn't like his role playing with Harden, you think he love it playing with Trae? https://twitter.com/TheHoopCentral/status/1326688707185836032?s=20 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedDawg#8 Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 Trae is not joining Lebron. That idea was already squashed by his dad when he first joined Klutch. Trae is his own person. Wants players to join him where he is and not the other way around. Further reasoning why we need to put a winner around him before he starts to change his mind. Even Bron couldn't stay loyal to a crap Cavs franchise (twice) despite wanting so bad to bring them glory. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
