Dude just say you don't like Melo, this is ridiculous.

For the last time I'm not a Melo hater. Everytime I discuss Melo I'm a hater lol.


That's what Scooby and the Gang would refer to as a "clue"

Check the draft threads. My picks are mostly guys who I think fit next to Melo/Miller.

If I hated the guy I would be suggesting pgs to replace him. It seems y'all have a soft spot for Melo.

All I want is for him to stay healthy and mature as a young man. If that's hating then by all means I will keep hating.

Well the Wizards can't trade any firsts right now until they first conveys for the Russell Westbrook trade they made..

(first round pick protected top 14 in 2023, top 12 in 2024, top 10 in 2025, top 8 in 2026, else 2026 second round pick, 2027 second round pick)

If we get on the clock at 6, Matas is on the board and the Bulls offer 11 and a lightly protected pick for #6 what are you doing?

Agree 100%.

One of those guys is amost guaranteed to be on the board at 11 (in which case I'd do Carter or Edey).
Adding a future first in a stronger draft should make it a no brainer if the Bulls really do have their eyes set of Matas

Falling in love with anyone in this draft sounds dangerous. Taking that Bulls deal would be smart.

I would too, Edey has a defined role and path to playing.

I’d be pretty stoked if we worked out a deal like that and ended up with Edey afterwards. I want us to have more size and toughness, I think he brings that big time.

Someone on the T&T forum proposed 6 + Martin + Bertans + Richards for Darius Garland. Thoughts?

I think Cleveland is hanging up the phone immediately.
They are trying to win now with Mitchell.
They are going to want a real player back for Garland, not some unknown rookie.

This would be an easy yes, but not sure what Cleveland would do with 12 centers

Did you watch the playoffs? Garland was consistently bad.
Feels like the grass is always greener situation.

I still want to target Deni Avdija, he's an ideal glue guy with Miller, LaMelo, Bridges and Williams and if hes traded to a team trying to win, he will be the next Caruso/White super role player, I firmly believe that. He's wasting away in DC
