Wait a sec, am I reading this wrong or did Smash trade a third round pick away twice?

Nevermind, just saw the third trade.

I'm not naive enough to act like LeBron certainly doesn't influence Kyrie, but he also wants Kyrie to be more of a 2 guard while Bron is the point. From a talent perspective it's closer than the masses believe, and in head to head matchups, you see Kyrie out duel Curry.

btw, good seeing you on Footballsfuture - I'm k-ro 25

If you look at Curry under Mark Jackson [Horrific Coach BTW for that team] he was playing ISO ball and wanted to drag the offense out and he was averaging 24/8.5. Did Kyrie really change at all even with LeBron there? Not much really, efficiency went up some, but more or less he's the same player. Talent wise Kyrie is the better player probably, but it's the smarts and team oriented nature of Curry that makes him a better player. Kyrie should dominate the 1 on 1s to be honest, there's not a player in the league that he shouldn't dominate one on one.

BTW, that site sort of sucks. Just happens to be one of the bigger football forums out there.
PS- At a young age, your ability to come up with names is funny to look back on.

That's a fair point, and admittedly I said it was a bit of a reach, but in terms of what both players provide for their team, you can argue it's a wash based on talent. Curry hasn't been asked to be a pure PG in ages. Draymond does so much for that offense.

And FF is awful bro. I use them for draft season only. JetNation has the best Jets stuff, but most of the posters are loopy.

I sent OnTheWagon 4 PM's trying to move up and he ignored them all and drafted Conley without getting back to me lol

Pick 32 is very available. Don't want to move further down than like 45.

Went Conley for underrated steady offense and strong defense at arguably the most important position.

Stick around cause you'll be picking again real soon.
