    Creative efforts picking apart Cod’s post. One of you is on to something, the rest are way off.

    Time will tell. Slow down to speed up.

    You draft for potential, you don't pay for potential. Especially when you're in win-now mode. And other than being young, strong, and a good defender Winslow hasn't show much potential at all. He's had three seasons already and isn't a very good scorer, ballhandler, or finisher. What is the basis of this so-called potential? What's he supposed to hang his hat on?

    IMO, he was severely overhyped coming out of college like Marvin Williams and will have a very similar career. If he hasn't shown flashes of brilliance after three seasons of regular rotation time he's a role player. Of course holic would offer them the same amount of money per year we just gave Capela.

    This only confirms it. Why would he ever mention , without being asked, that he doesn't have account here?

    I bet you any money he has account here even multiple accounts to avoid being tracked down, this is morey we talking about

    You are correct, Tha Dude has averaged 1.90 likes per message, while 'h-town melo' scored, respectable but not goat, 1.65 likes per possession

    Tik tok’s release is Tyson Chandler I think based on earlier post that we still want him, he’s close with MDA and he’s getting old.

    Apparently he stole some psuedo rich guy's rug carrying the same name as his and ended up being pissed on, tortured with a ferret and thrown in jail.

    Morey is still star hunting. He wants a third bonafide star caliber player and not just for one season or even two.

    Melo is not being brought in to fill that type of role. That's not a slight towards Melo; that's seemingly not the plan for Melo nor should it be.

    Averaging an efficient 13-16 PPG is more enough for what we need.

    I like his defense. He came back strong after a shoulder injury. He is indeed a role player, that is why I expect Riley to extend him on a relatively cheap contract. His behavior against Embiid was disturbing in the playoffs. He deliberately stepped on his face guard. This may be suggestive of a troubled mind. I would keep away from him.

    There's a lot of hate in that response. I hope whatever ails you gets better.

    Slow: Winslow

    Trade-

    MIA gets Koufos
    SAC gets Ryno, 2019 HOU 1st, 2019 MIA 2nd, 2019 HOU 2nd
    HOU gets Johnson, Winslow

    HOU turns a late first and Ryno into a two rotation pieces
    MIA sheds significant long-term salary
    SAC gets a few picks for taking on Ryno

    We may need to include Melton and/or Qi to push the deal over the edge, but I think this is a solid framework for a trade.

    Getting Winslow and James Johnson for that package would be insane, tbh. Would be a pretty bitter pill for Miami to give up that talent for Koufos. Miami shouldn't have to give up a 2nd.
    I would easily include Zhou in that deal if needed. But would hold back Melton.
