Nah Fox is a glorified Felton who can't shoot.

That’s cap. I’m the biggest felton hater there is and Fox is instantly 2947293739 times better :lol:

Yeah fox’s 3 point% is down… but what’s the other option? I feel like y’all just waiting for the perfect point guard like Steph. And for what it’s worth, I wasn’t even that high on Fox pre draft.

I knew that name would trigger you :lol:

Listen, you didn't want FVV. I hold you accountable for this mess :lol:

Also I'd rather have no PG and keep my options open until the right one is available than commit 20-30% of my cap for the next 5 years for a PG who can't shoot and probably doesn't help you win games on average.

I've heard numerous times that the kings have to make the playoffs (so play in). in this case they would probably more shuffle the deck than trading away fox for young players and picks.

Randle, Fournier, IQ, Deuce, 2022 first (top 5 protected) and 2023 mavs pick
for
Fox, Barnes

Fox / Rose
Grimes / Burks
RJ / Cam
Barnes / Obi
Mitch / Noel

fit and upside would be fantastic imo.

On one hand it sucks having to agree with Chanel but on the other hand I get to disagree with melo so it's a wash.

Melo out here wanting to spend 150+ mill on a souped up felton. Sad times. Not handling Randle breaking his trust well.

the last thing the knicks need is getting a player that doesn't space out the floor, knicks already have randle being the weak link with his 3pt shooting.

randle and fox on the floor together means rj is gonna have to fly over everyone just to score because the defense will always create a perimeter around the rim knowing randle and especially fox ain't shooting the three ball.
LOL Y U MAD THO?

I changed my mind, we don’t deserve him. Hope he goes to the lakers or something. We can enjoy alec burks and Kemba with a Walker for the foreseeable future

2023 mavs pick

but I doubt that this gets it done...

Fox makes 3204039582509 dollars and is terrible. IQ makes nothing and is 2 1/2 years younger.

Neither guy is setting the world on fire, but IQ is currently just better. It's just we have a mongoloid as a coach.

I can't stress how terrible Fox is at shooting. IQ is owed $6.5 million the next 2 years. Fox is owed $63 million :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Second half 2021 Derrick Rose is the best PG we've had in decades I'd argue. Which ... is pretty sad.
