If we stick pat I don't think it would be of any use to watch the rest of the season, we have no shot at beating any of the east's top 4 teams in a single game in the playoffs, we match up so terribly now against all 4 teams


well we was not winning a series anyway so whats the diffrent?

The only hope maybe we can steal win at home maybe 2 but 2 maybe asking too much.

Are we forgetting the purpose of the trade isn’t to win a series. It’s to show Kemba we are committed to winning.

Right. It's a tough pill to swallow but we are what we are as a team and short of fleecing another team for a star (like Beal) that was not going to change this season. Better to keep our pick and develop Monk/Miles then throw together a desperation trade just to make the playoffs when we're already on track for that anyway.

I just don't want a repeat of the Tyrus Thomas situation, trading a 1st for a player who doesn't even really help and who has no long-term place on the team. It's good to kick the tires but if the value isn't there walk away. Gasol for a 1st and players on bad contracts was fine, trading Monk + lightly protected 1st is a bridge too far.

JV is a perfectly decent young center. If Cody wasn't injured every year we may have been able to make the same kinda deal ourselves.

If we aren't bringing anybody in, we should just trade Kemba. Standing pat is the stupidest thing to do.

If Kemba leaves we can always have our long anticipated tankathon, it just would be nice to get some extra picks out of it. I don't think he leaves and I hope that he has agreed to have patience with this years team. We have more assets next year as our bad contracts become good expirings.

We weren’t asked to trade Monk or Bridges tho... it was about the first rounder. We had issues on protection.

Wonder what clippers would want for Lou Williams? He might be cool to have to help Kemba close games.

I don’t think we are doing anything. Not even trading Frank. We will however, be one of the most stable teams in the NBA for a few weeks.
