A trade for Zach Lavine makes too much sense. 23 pts, 5 rebs, 4 asts on 52% FG and 44% 3PT. Also on a 2+1 contract with 1 less year....
It would take more than Jalen, I’d have to throw in the Suns picks and maybe Cam if they play hardball.
I got laughed at when I brought this up on Twitter...a couple of weeks ago....but I agree, it makes us better. DD
Brah - no double teams, no help defenders ..... no one plays more than about 30 minutes a day because they are exhausted after playing Ime Udoka defense. Not surprised that Jalen and Jabari are shooting 30%, there legs are jelly. Udoka isn't letting some Jake that plays matador defense and hits 40% of his threes play - they would get yanked after the first possession. Udoka and Thibs meet up and argue about who is better at "Do your job".
You deserved to be laughed at. Trading for Zach Lavine is an absolute non-starter unless the Bulls are throwing in at 2 or 3 unprotected first round picks. Lavine has an absolute toxic contract that will hamstring us for the next 2 years. It's irritating that we have such an impatient fan base. We are on the verge of something great, don't panic!
I want nothing at all to do with Zach LaVine, the Rockets would be better off trading Jalen for absolutely nothing in return just to get him off the books.
Why is he a more toxic contract than jalen? Jalen’s deal is a year longer and he’s a much worse player. Of course jalen’s deal is less per year, but the extra year stings.
