I like the idea of you guys giving him some time at the point. His defense there will be atrocious, of course, but it's worth looking at.

He's so versatile on the offensive end, he can shoot, slash and play the pick and roll game. However, the thing I like the most is his off-ball movement when Cousins had the ball last year. A thing that can be translated into our system next year with Okafor. His defense though...

BB do your thing with this guy!

Btw, this was funny a year ago, but it just became hilarious. Refused to trade down 2 spots when Hinkie called, now they are giving us Stauskas + 1st round pick + 2 pick swaps for some salary dump. I love that franchise. :lol:

Team be more fun to watch with inside out game. Him, Cov and Thompson be raining 3s

But this is Stauskas chance to live up to his potential of Thompson. He did get better under Karl and 76ers system should suit him and its all about player development so he can work thru his mistakes.

Look at randy foye's face. He's looks confident that he can stop Stauskas because he's faster than him. He's probably whistlin' a favorite tune of his way to stop him.

I think I read a tweet from Tom Moore that it was highly unlikely as the timing of when deal can become official doesn't sync. Can't find the link though

A lottery pick just a year ago! He'll end up being a steal for us. Kings are smoking crack, I understand dreaming big though.

Welcome Nik. This is a fantastic pickup and fit for us!
