Moderators Popular Post AHF Posted May 5, 2020 Author Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 How highly regarded is Isaac around the league? He has missed more than 50% of Orlando's games over the last 3 years and his career averages are 9.3 points on .529% TS%, 5.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.1 steal and 1.5 blocks per game. He needs to be DPOY if he is putting up 12 and 7 on a 55% TS% (numbers he has never reached in a season). 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capela and Issac helps since their is an abundance of offensive 2s available on the market for an affordable price I like him but you can't be paying a premium for a guy as limited as him. Collins alone is an overpay for Isaac and I'm not a homer super-high on Collins. As you say, building around Trae/Collins is tough. It's made even tougher by giving up on Collins in favor of a guy not good enough on defense to make up for the step back on offense we'd take. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that deal is a significant overpay from our end unless Supes sees huge star making development coming from Isaac ala Giannis. I do think that Supes sees Collins' defense as a problem from a team building perspective. He has been very positive about Collins in the past but is clearly questioning whether there is a problem with long-term fit with Trae & Collins. He may be among the top 2-3 posters most negative on Collins but still sees a lot of positive with him. I like Isaac but would not want to give up Collins for someone at his what I think of as being his role player level. Supes likes the RAPTOR/WAR stat which says Isaac was better than Collins this year due to impact of defense. (Collins is 3rd on the Hawks lottery team while Isaac is 2nd on Orlando's 8th seed team). Collins: RAPTOR -0.3 / WAR +1.7 Isaac: RAPTOR +3.6 / WAR +3.1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spud2nique Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Collins>>>> Isaac No way that’s disrespecting JC. Isaac avg. 12/7/1 in 30mpg Collins avg. 22/10 in 33mpg Block averages for last year differ by .8 not too huge. I do like @hazer OG Isaac but I’m not giving up a double double guy in JC for him. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think playing Collins 47% of the time at Center crushed him. Its a testament to his attitude and fortitude that he did not complain or sulk all season; while still being able to put up All Star like numbers.

Popular Post DS5 Posted May 5, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Collins has improved each year, and even showed a bit of defensive improvement this season. I really like Isaac but I'm not giving up JC and a first for him. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I would do this. I like Kevin a lot but I would at least entertain this. Trae/Booker Trae/Hield...

You don't think Issac is one of the best defensive players in the NBA? Per NBA.com he played in 2 GLeague games his rookie year. He spent most of his rookie season rehabbing a bum ankle. Year 2 injured, year 3 injured. In a year when JC got suspended for 25 games, he still played more games (41) than Isaac (32). 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS5 Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 On another note, is Oladipo really available? I'd be willing to give up this year's first, OKC first and Huerter. Probably Dedmon too to make salaries work. I'd take a gamble that he returns to his 18-19 form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trae/Booker Trae/Hield... People always talking about backcourts that won’t work due to defense but 80% of the league doesn’t play good defense. 80% of the league plays better defense than us. If you look at the top 15 teams in defensive rating, its like 12 or 13 are playoff teams. Now to add insult to injury, the Bucks, Raptors, Lakers, Celtics, Clippers, and 76ers round up the top 6. https://stats.nba.com/teams/advanced/?sort=DEF_RATING&dir=-1 Defense is boring @Spud2nique but it is blatantly obvious it matters.

Butchu just mentioned him so he's definitely gonna re... Shhh, stfu Nique, I wanna see where this is goin'. Did this muhfkr jus' tell me ta shut up? Defense matters when it comes to winning at the level I'd like us to achieve. Plus Hield would pitch a hissy about coming off the bench, which is what he'd do if he were here imho. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
