KAT has all the tools or most of them. Just no killer instinct which is rare, KAT is a lifelong second banana but Batman must be dominating.
DM is singlehandedly a Top 3 performer in these Playoffs...... I do not think Booker is even moved after an above average postseason. They could virtually wait until trade deadline and offer him an extension.
I'd do a Brooks, Landale and 3 for Dejounte Murray. (4 team trade) Overpay? Playing time crunch in the backcourt? What do you think?
I would pick Clingan at 3 and trade Tari for Shepard. Then make a small trade for Luke Kennard. I know that's a lot of white guys, but they would add shooting and size the team is currently missing. I bet Stone picks a foreign player if he stays at three.
I saw that game. We need a center bigtime. I was hesitant on Clingmen but this reminds me of how much we need size in the paint.
Portland seems set in the backcourt so they may give a little to have a big. We can get ours at 7th. The 14th is draft and stash or another trade down.
Ingram & Murphy # 17 # 21 For Green, Brooks & Tate #3 We land our star. Murphy covers Ingrams injury issues. Let the FO do their thing in the draft -> Role players
We're not talking about achievements. It's about skill set and KAT has a more well rounded offensive arsenal that fits the way this team wants to play. Not being able to shoot clogs up the paint
GG if not playing a single game last year, and waited till this draft can easily be a top 3 pick, let alone after the flashes he’s shown. Zero chance Memphis not hanging up in two seconds
This isn't true. They had a 10 game stretch against mostly shiity competition, then Green and the team fell apart when they played teams in the playoffs or the play in.
Jalen Green, Jabari Smith, #3, 2 more picks for Ja Morant. Let's make it happen PG-Ja Morant SG-Cam Whitmore SF-Amen Thompson PF-Tari Eason C-Alperen Sengun Bench Fred Van Vleet Dillon Brooks Steven Adams Sign me up!
If that exact trade happened I think I would stop watching the rockets for a few seasons. Do not sign me up.
A wild one which shows my frustration with this draft. Number 3 to the Wizards for BC and their unprotected 2025 first round pick.
