Predicting Vucevic for Rui and Knecht.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

Connelly will make moves, it’s his thing.

Why? LA needs shooters around Luka.

Vuv doesn’t fit the window. I’d be surprised.

I think of any trade possibility, this is the one I'm still feeling the best about ahead of Thursday.

And it all goes back to New Orleans.....

Sounded like they were looking for a big in an additional trade...

Vuv (40% on 4.6/game) is basically KAT (42% on 4.7/game) from 3 this year.

Another fun one...

Naz Reid (42% on 5.2/game) is basically KAT (42% on 4.7/game) from 3 this year (in 9.0 mpg fewer)

The underline is why the Wolves ended up with Randle. You really want to go to that well again?

It's also how we ended up with NAW. You really don't want to go to that well again?

NAW was a throw-in but, more importantly, I don't believe he has the sort of injury history Ball does.

Could Jimmy just go to Beal and say, “I’ll give you an additional $10 mil of my money to accept a trade?”

Connelly has traded every trade deadline. So we'll get something for sure.

I'm on the same boat as minimus of Randle for Ball and Jalen Smith. Gives us another ballhandler that won't take too much minutes from Dillingham, since he plays with Conley sometimes, he can play with Ball at the same time too. Smith gives us that backup big so Naz can start. It just makes so much sense.

Completely agree. But you all know that already... :lol:

Every deadline , every draft night. Standing pat is not in Connelly’s nature.

My gut tells me they trade NAW tomorrow. I fully expect Minott to be traded. I hope they trade Randle, and I wouldn’t be shocked if we moved the Utah 2nd in any deal. I don’t think we move the Detroit first, but I do think we trade down with it on draft night.

Naw!? My heart would break...

Utah seems not to keep Schroeder...can be a fit for us?
