Is this the new depth chart if everyone was healthy?

Duren/ Wiseman
Stewart / Bagley / Livers
Bojan/ Diallo/ Livers
Ivey/ Burks/ Mc Gruder
Cade/ Killian /cojo

The only one who need minutes is Duren. Stew is fine as a backup, the other 2 should not be in the NBA.

I'd rather have bey then Wiseman. We paid to much just to take a look at him and we already got Duren. Horrible move I don't understand it.

That goes without saying. Stewart's, too. Folks love their homegrown draft picks.

I honestly can't figure this out. I was excited when Weaver was taking the trash out, but he's turned into a hoarder of other teams trash.

Utterly confused.

Playing Wiseman and Duren together?

Obviously we'll never see it, but on paper that looks about right. For now.

We sent out Knox too so this must mean we’re getting another wing from somewhere else…


Did we though? Wiseman even though he was maybe a negative asset still has some potential and it's not like Bey was ever going to be a star with us. Wiseman is not nothing at the least

I'd like to think it's more of a lateral move than an upgrade simply due to the fact our frontcourt has a big logjam


What logjam? Bagley always injured, Noel never plays, Steward missed half a season due to injury, and an 18 year Center who plays below starter minutes. There is no logjam whatsoever.

Take a flyer on Wiseman, it's apparent Weaver wasn't planning on resigning Bey. Wiseman was playing the NBDL, he still needs development time, but not too bad of a chance to acquire a potential asset.

I don't think it's a fireable offense like some seem to think, it's just confusing moreso than anything else and kind of sad that Bey, who looked so promising, was turned into trading for a salary dump.

The positive is that at least it's something of interest to watch the rest of the season. Couldn't say the same if they stood pat.

According to this, we could still trade extra’s like Bagley, Diallo, and Jospeh for a much-needed C

That's really not ideal in this league. Are we just going to clog the paint and chuck even more 3s? We're already at the near maximum of doing so in our whoever offense

he's locked in for $12M next season too leaving us with no real cap room this off season. at this point we're 1000% looking at another sub-30 win season next year. the fact that we're paying bagley and wiseman ~$25M combined next season when both players are min-level or out-of-the-league players is wild to me.

I think we'll see some sort of draft day trade. We might even shop our pick if it's not top 2.

Absolutely atrocious trade. I'm as big as a Troy Weaver believer as they come but I can't even possibly begin to defend this. How do you trade someone who's dropped 51 in the NBA for someone who can't even see the floor? And at a position that we're effectively set. Makes no goddamn sense. Awful, awful, awful.

Bey/Knox for Wiseman is a fail on multiple levels.

1) Bey >> Wiseman
2) Wiseman’s role will be limited here; Duren
3) Trade gives us even LESS shooting now

Ugh…

This is a bummer.

We have more bigs that we need. I’d guess Noel gets bought out. Still more than we need.

But one is hurt and one is useless. So I guess it balances out. Ugh…
