Nor would any other team in this draft. Hell, even my Brazilian nephew follows the Rockets now because his aunt married a Houston Rockets addict and he was talking Wembayama with me. (He's also how I found out about our new coach. Wifey turns to me from WhatsApping with Junior and says, "The Rockets got a coach?" "No, they're doing interviews now." "Junior says. 'He used to be the Boston coach'?" "WHAT!") I told him not to hold his breath, we have an 86% chance of not getting Wembayama, but if we do, then j*zz your jeans. You don't want broke-dick Harden (or, at least, you think he won't come here; I'm mixing up BBS posters now) but you want Lillard. Same mileage, different model. I'd trade the #2 perhaps, but not for any player past the age of, say, 28.
"Hold me now...wo-oah, warm my heart; STAY WITH MEEEEEEE".... Hey, what do you expect, I'm middle-aged.
My wife makes this joke every time my son or I bring up Amen and Ausur. She's driving me crazy with that crap!
I’m curious what you could get for #1. Is there any trade y’all would be willing to do? Even if it’s unrealistic or straight impossible for whatever reason. I’m not convinced Wemby will be as dominant as let’s say Lebron. I also worry about skinny players that tall. Not saying I wouldn’t take risk and draft him, but I am not convinced he’s a guaranteed HOFer. Always happy to be proven wrong though when it ultimately benefits our team. I’m also curious what fantasy timeline trade y’all would be willing to entertain. Would you trade him for 18 year old Lebron? Yes, right? What about for Steph and Klay 5 years ago?
There are a lot of interesting trades you can think up with the Thunder that involve Chet coming back. Which is some version of Victor to begin with. Something like Chet/Giddy/future pick (could involve gaining back control of Rockets own picks back) for Victor Then trade Sengun/KPJ/Clippers pick/Martin/Nets assets for Brown Fill out more of the roster with free agents that make sense. Giddy Green Brown Chet Jabari Bench: G TyTy G Christopher F Eason F Tate C Garuba Brown has his team to lead for a few years as every player around him continues to improve up and down the roster. You would have 8 players from 2 single drafts over a two year span that would need contracts though.
Interesting… SGA is a clear perennial all star. Will he develop into a potential HOFer? I think we could get more.
This I would strongly consider. But would be willing to risk it to push for some draft picks or something in addition. he might be the only straight up player I’d consider, though
Will Wembys body hold up all the way until post season every year Nobody knows but I don’t like them Chet/Wemby looking dudes for injury reason
How you guys feel trading pick 2 or 3 with martin Tate Christopher garuba or some picks for Zion? And if u sign Harden Harden Green jabari Zion sengun Bench Porter , Eason, sign vets etc ..idk just wondering .I don't even know if am for this trade or not really just throwing it out
Paolo is a Scottie Barnes type of rookie of the year. He will be just another 3rd best player on a decent team. The love here for this guy is crazy. Crappy defense and can’t shoot worth a flip. I think he is an Aaron Gordon clone without the outside shot.
And they other 75% of the time I’d set myself on fire Him not being responsible enough to keep his weight under control should tell you enough about him. He’s got shaq’s work ethic with a AD body
