Considering the gap in talent is not big. I think most teams would prefer a wing than a big. So if we offer Ben for KAT, I think they'd more likely accept that.

The way Ben is playing now, I'd hold unto him for the mean time.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Nah, Towns is one of the softest players in NBA. He'll never win a damn thing.

He couldn't post up Jimmy Butler ffs.. And not only in famous practice, but in NBA game too. And him defending mobile 4s.. that would be something. I think he is the most overrated player in the NBA.

Ok I have been following the information coming via the media I am really starting to think he isn't worth a max deal and may be a flight risk...Is it worth Brand quietly trying to shop him before the deadline or is it better to just have the open cap space if he does choose to leave?

6ers ain't doing Kat for Simmons. Kat is as overated as anyone in the nba.

No way. Ben's playing incredibly well this year.

Kuzma, Hart, Zubek and LA 2022 unprotected 1st.
Lebron will be gone by then and the team will go back to sucking but Magic will be delusional enough to think that will never happen and gladly give up the 1st round pick. By 2022, Jimmy will have thrown all of his teammates under the bus and will have been quoted at some point saying "Magic wasn't that great"

I'm all about robbing the Lakers blind in a deal. I don't see it happening, but you never know.

If you put Kuzma into the starting lineup by trading Butler. Outside shooting becomes even worse.

Wonder if Lakers prefer Jimmy over Beal, if so. Swing a 3way deal with Wizards to get Beal on Sixers. The young guys going to Wizards and Lakers get Jimmy.

Wow. I didn't even realise how badly Kuzma shoots from deep this season. So he is 30% shooter from 3 and bad on defence, how come he is hyped like future all-star?

Would you pay him the max next year? If not they need to move him.

Kuzma shot almost 37% from 3 last year. I'm willing to bet he's above 35% for his career.
