    The skill was always there, but he finally got the minutes he deserved.

    SNT him to a contender for a future pick. We can’t have him messing with our tank next year.

    Hope you weren’t one of ones who said “screw Ariza. We don’t need him for ‘Run It Back’ if he’s asking that much.” Yet want Olynyk for ‘Rebuild It Back’ bc he might help the kids become mediocre next year.

    :)

    Sign him so you can trade him. Don’t let him go for nothing ... but seriously :cool:, he’s too good for our tank

    What if we get lucky and land a franchise piece this draft? Do you think we should abandon the tank, keep Olynyk, and hope to be competitive again in a couple of years?

    No, I don’t. Not next year.

    even the best draft pick in years (Luka) only produced 6th worst record (tied) in his first year, bc they surrounded him with me-first players, crap and a one-legged Dirk. And they didn’t even own the pick. The two teams DAL was tied with got the 1st (Zion) and 2nd (Morant) picks ... literally, a tie-breaker coin flip away from one of those picks.

    Trae also only produced 5th worst record.


    But I’m fine keeping Olynyk. I’m just talking ideally cashing him in for futures, if we can.

    I'd pick Kelly over Christian. As much love I have for KPJ, I'd pick KMJ over him.
