Did We Accomplish Anything With These Moves?

like 7UP, never has never will..

 

Neither could Canaan

He's over 40% on his career from 3

 

Nothing was accomplished today other than the fact that its becoming more obvious the Morey is overrated as a GM.

 

How is that different from Canaan?

 

In short... Nah!

 

Better pray Harden goes MJ in the playoffs and D12 reverts to 08 D12.. We gave harden zero help. There were so many people available..

 

Why are we making lateral moves? At this point if you can't get a deal done then dammit that's it. But don't just make a trade for the sake of saying you made a trade. Why would you trade for another wing player and a washed up backup PG. Isiah Canaan is younger and better than Priogni. James Harden will be stuck carrying this team for years because the GM doesn't know how to fill our team needs smh

 

agreed. We would have been better off keeping our roster locked the way it was.


sighhhhh

 

Flexibility brother, thats whats important. Keeping the pipe dream for Durant alive instead of trying to become a legit contenders

 

Hi abdul

 

Still have NOP 1st, NYK 2nd, DMo and Jones. Lost nothing but fat. Meanwhile we have a veteran pack up point guard and KJ McDaniels who could turn into something

 

At least we still have the Hornets pick?

 

I like the moves. McDaniels fits our defensive system just as well as Brewer, and he could be a long term piece on this team with a lot of room to grow. Having him gives us more wing depth, thus allowing the Rockets to play Harden at the one more.

Prigioni -- I really don't know what to say about him. He's a hell of a shooter from three and he has natural point guard abilities. I am not sure how much I expect to see him on the court though.

I am not sure which 2nd rounders we gave up, but, it may have been a lot to sacrifice if it was some of the better ones -- but, overall, I like the moves.

Super psyched about KJ actually -- he is perfect for what this team is doing on defense, and I think he has a lot of long term potential. I will say though that acquiring him makes me nervous that they'll let Brewer walk if he opts out at the end of the season. If Brewer doesn't opt out, perhaps it means they will trade Ariza though.

 

typical mid-season morey trades, all going to be gone in the offseason.

 

We now have the opportunity to start 3 small forwards

 

We got worse. Morey did not deliver this year. Another year of pretending instead of contending.

 

McDaniels will likley be cheaper than Brewer too

 

We stand pat, which a lot of people wanted, and people still b****.

 

All I know is we needed somebody to take the pressure off Harden playmaking-wise and I don't think we accomplished that at all.

Can our supporting cast step up when Harden inevitably is swarmed in the playoffs? I guess we'll find out...
