Bottom line, AG is a starter and potential 3rd star, especially playing alongside Harden. AG would play Clint's role on offense but with the addition of Green's skillset. And AG is a better switch defender than either Clint or Green. And as much as I like Jeff Green, he is not a 3rd star.
We don’t have the assets to get Aaron Gordon so the whole thing is mute. Here is the point that hasn’t been made... JG league minimum VS AG 20M/per The value is JG every time.
The chance for him to be traded when whasshisname did the ACL and is out for next season. John ______ (sorry, blanking) who could/would make AG available.
i disagree. for one he’d be getting more minutes of he was better. The end. Vucevic is good but shouldn’t be the defense presence Bamba is. they can both shoot threes so you could play them together. For two Clint was better at 21. Mo is still slightly lacking in something - coordination, stamina, mental and physical speed of the game. There’s a fluidity that’s not there yet because he hasn’t fully adjusted to nba speed. For three of he is all the things people here want him to be... the Magic would trade Vuc and keep Bamba. Years of Vuc have gotten them first round exits. Getting Danuel House isn’t changing that. There’s definitely the potential they are trying to sell while he still has “potential”. he might get better. He’s just not there yet.
Please show the source confirming Moreyball was "forced" to trade for WB. These narratives seem to be created after every disappointing playoff exit
Nothing in this article mentioned Moreyball being "forced" to do the trade. It also didn't say anything about him being against the trade. It said Tillman jumped on the prospect of WB after his analytics team presented him with the idea. Moreyball GAVE him the idea lol
No. There are no similarities except both are 7 feet or taller. Mo Bamba is incredibly smart. Mo Bamba has had more success in 2 years and shown more strides than Thabeet did in his whole career. Mo Bamba is the perfect player for Morey to add. Mo Bamba is only coming if Orlando is less intelligent than Mo Bamba.
