If it's 3. I'd trade back for Buddy Hield. Assuming he stays 2nd half of the lottery. Which seems likely because he's a senior.

He probably should be # 3, but because he's 22, it drops him a lot.

Still think when the lottery happens, we'll be 4th

I prefer Horford, but, if Thibs came, Whiteside might be a better fit, younger, less wear and tear, etc. My fear would be, who on the court keeps him right? Lou/Batum would be the "vets" and he isn't liable to listen to either of them. That worries me a little, but......I could be sold on him. We need 2-3 bodies to help change things, and preferably, defenders. Thibs/Ingram/Batum/Whiteside in one offseason could be a solid infusion of defense.

Artest as an assistant maybe?

 

[essential1]

I believe we've already guaranteed MWP a job with the team in some capacity after the season.

before the lottery, pick, swaggy and randle for boogie do it mitch

I like this.

Umm don't think you can trade a pick that you don't yet have. It would have to be after the lottery and probably the draft as well and the 1st week of FA to get more salary.

Hoping we don't land Whiteside, young and talented as hell but he's not right in the head. Pat Riley runs a tight ship in South Beach and the Heat are a veteran team with HoF leaders and this dude stays testing their patience every other day. If he's like this right now, can't imagine how he'd be under a new coach, a weaker FO, young and impressionable teammates, and a fat contract. Bynum was a young and talented malcontent too but we had a roster that could absorb his shenanigans. Phil, Kobe, Fish, Pau, and LO to an extent, not to mention Jerry Buss was still on hand up until 2011-12. We all saw yobo Bynum with Mike Brown. No need to even talk about Philly. I can see the appeal but I just can't trust him on a deal that pretty much makes him an Alpha on a squad full of pups.

We don't see eye to eye very often but I actually like this a lot.

Even if someone reaches and gets Hield before us we can take a guy like Denzel who will come it and be NBA ready right away.

I know there's been a lot of improvement over time, but still, to think, Ron Artest, Mentor.........

Yes, I could see it, but no, I wouldn't reaaaallllly want to see it.

It would just be so much easier with Horford, but if we can't get him, and Whiteside is willing to sign here, then I guess I can live with it, and hope Ron (or whoever else) can keep him straight.

I probably wouldn't sleep very well, but I'll live.

We don't see eye to eye often? That disappoints me.

Denzel is another guy I like. My issue with him is that while he does sooooo much well on offense. He's bad defensively. But he's definitely a guy I think that makes an immediate impact first year.

 

[pmatic]

Well damn Whiteside.

 

[MVP]

Well damn Whiteside.

Meh we should pass...

 

[mamba2481]

This is just unwatchable. 15-4 and there is stil 8:30 seconds left in the first quarter.

This starting 5 can't guard ANYBODY.

Obviously Kobes old self isn't helping. But neither are the young fellas who just get blown by or get stuck on a pick every time.

Just frustrating. Can't wait until the offseason.

 

[sb]

welp.

 

[essential1]

Russell playing well tonight.

Pushing the pace. And able to downshift gears really quickly.

 

[youngwolf]
