The past month + I have maintained neutrality for trading Morris...but maintained he will traded in the off season. -- So the fact that you 'changed' your mind 1+ months ago makes me a liar? You are honestly going to try to state that you haven't complained about McD not trading Morris for the last 6 months? (minus the last month, I guess?) OK, Frank, if you say so... I don't demand, I Complain...FIFY.... You are lying to say I have been complaining for the past 6 months to trade MoBro. I think my last post prior to the trade was the FO will be making a statement on deadline day. Don't confuse or lump me with others.
I think Dragic is a better point guard than Knight. And a better facilitator than Bledsoe.... look what he did here, not so much what he does in Miami, under entirely different circumstances, entirely different team. Is an extra 3 mill per is really such a detrimental factor? If So, then NEVER mention how Knights deal will look like a bargain once the cap goes up. (Like you did with Dragic's???)Its trivial at this point. Just stop it. Until Knight shows he can run a team, don't tell me he is better than Dragic just because of his price tag. Stats don't show low BBIQ and chuckiness. He has yet to prove his worth. You guys can't defend him without pointing out how F-n young he is and then tea leaf his future improvement. The guy has never shown he can lead a team, not here, not in Detroit, not in Milwaukee, not even in Kentucky...where as Dragic has proven he could. -- FOR ONE SEASON, Frank, that's it. So because he did that for ONE season, and now that he's 29, we are supposed to expect that he'll get better? At least with Knight, there's a chance. Dragic got what he wanted, and failed. He did as much here as well, NOT only in Miami, and all he did was whine and complain, because he wasn't top dog. So yeah, Knight IS the better player, and if you can't see that, then go spend some time on the Heat forum; they'll help explain it for you. And Knight is $3M cheaper, so yes, I'll take the 5 year younger, better, cheaper player, but you go ahead on how Dragic is the better facilitator with is 5.5 APG in the one PG system he's in now.You also assume we would have paid Dragic the same as Miami (which will likely look like a normal deal as the spending spree escalates)
And btw, we were bad when we were healthy. -- And we are WORSE now, Frank. No one claimed we were good, only that we were better when healthy. Is that not true, Frank?
Go ahead and half full the remainder of the year. There are two sides to every coin. also, I love how you guys always blame Sarver for forcing McDoTooMuchTooFast ransacking a team 1-2 games away from the playoffs... like any owner/Fan wouldn't expect improvement? Like any GM wouldn't try to put a better team on the floor ? It is y'all that have created this myth that Sarver hindered McDogPile's real tanking plan....even when he has said himself that he got too tradey/antsy that yr. Like it was a bad thing to be good that yr...as if picking 14th was that much worse than 5 or 6th? Who rather would you have drafted that yr? Marcus Smart, Exum, Gordon ? Damn, we end up with Warren. -- Agree here, Frank. And guess who picked Warren, Frank?
Bottom line is Ws vs Ls. You guys seem to be going down the path that next yr we should suck too. You might be OK with that, but it could cost McDoubleDown his job. -- I'm not OK with that, but it's a necessary evil. It takes time to build a team.
But you still have talked your way around the questions I asked, Frank...without answering them, of course. Which was the poor trade? The Pick for Knight, or Dragic for Picks?
