Reminds me more of Kevin Porter Jr. than Brandon Ingram

Boston is talented af, but not sure if I want. Negative basketball IQ type.

Lol maybe he can transition into a louwill roll off the bench.


Depending on the cost, I would take a flyer on him

Obviously can’t play with our own munchkins but if Voldemort returns that would cover for him defensively

Celtics.

They had one hell of a run.

That team with IT, overachieved.
When they had Tatum and Al, they had great chemistry.

Then when they went into their “all in” mode.. they just exploded.

Kyrie is a headcase.
Hayward got into a freak injury in his first game.
Kemba is a damaged good.

I always liked how they structured their team. There is just no wastage in talent and everyone just fits with one another.

But yeah, they had their run. And I think after they get someone good in the lottery and pair him with Jaylen and Tatum, they can be really good again.

I just want one of boys here. Simons cooking again past two games. Sucks that young players around have more of a leash.

CJ, Dame, Powell, Nurk can all sink together for all I care. Blazers are as stubborn as us

Happily trade Milton/Korkmaz for him if they don’t want to invest long term.

Hyland is a two-way stud. Would have been a perfect piece to improve us on both ends.

Shouldn't we give an offer for Kemba. Or am I crazy?

If it involves Tobias going out, then absolutely yes.

Otherwise, probably not.

Kemba would obviously be a better fit than Maxey, but there doesn't appear to be a match for us. Our two players in his salary range are Seth Curry and Danny Green. I don't think we'd move either of them.

Im OK with Kemba playing off the bench.

Kemba has better create skills than Maxey. Where Maxey relies too much on a screen play

We royally messed up the Bridges stuff. Damn he’s been awesome.

No part of Kemba thanks he’s washed. Even at the Hornets he was very inconsistent as a scorer basically a midget Jamal Murray.

Our defense sucks now we bring in one of the worst defender in the whole comp. Pass

Kemba is old, washed, done. All of the sudden Maxey dissing is very strange as is wanting a guy who hasn’t been good in years.

That's subjective.

If you look at it objectively, Kemba spaces the floor at an incredible rate, generates turnovers with deflections, and traditionally is closer to a PG-level distributor than Maxey is.

He's just flatout more well-rounded and a better fit.

Right now, Maxey is just a pick-his-spots slasher with no shooting, no defense, and subpar positional passing.

But I thought he was a washed-up munchkin on a bad contract?

Cam Thomas is the perfect role player with upside to become a(n) (offensive) star. His role is to shoot the ball at all costs and never get down on himself if it's not falling. Truly sociopathic in his indifference on how cold he is. If he can figure out how to become a marginal distributor, he's a perennial all star. I have no doubt he can be a 25 ppg scorer on 30+ minutes a game. His defense, OTOH, will prevent him from hitting that minute mark.
