do we really have to move all the way to 4 to nab him ? what if Lukas still there ? do people still like Bamba in that scenario ?
There's something about an underdog that really inspires the unexceptional.

#4 + Parsons for #36 + 2019 1st Top 2 Protected + Lee + Lance

#4
#9

If something like that were to happen where we pay a bit of the future for a bit more of the now... Who are your picks? Bamba + Mikal? Doncic + Knox?

Why trade up for Bamba? Carter is better and you get to keep things

Measurements like his are rare. Throw in his intelligence and you have a really special player.
I am all for sending 9, Lee, Thomas and 36 for 4 and Parsons.
I would throw in Dotson or Tre as well.
Would NOT give up Frank. He is about to have a breakout season. Love everything about his game.
Frank/KP/Bamba is a VERY special core.

Clearly, they have been talking to Memphis and are very confident they can move up if necessary. Obviously, the target is Doncic.

Meeting with Bamba is simply them doing last minute due diligence in the event that Doncic is not on the board, but they want to know if they should still consider moving up at that point.

It's due diligence, nothing more.

Also, Bamba is overrated. He processes the game slowly, is a slow leaper, and his shooting is grossly overrated just because of his size. No thanks.

Doncic is the prize for me

No, you compared Parsons to what Howard was traded for because Mozgov wasn't traded for Howard and two picks.


right. i understand him now. was a syntax error.


Was comparing contracts that have like a $10mil per year difference a syntax error, too? :lol:
