I wouldn't trade PJ for Wiggins, nor would I trade a first for Wiggins. PJ is going to be solid for many years, and we need to continue to build with young guys until the time is right to add through trades or free agency. I want a true contender in a couple of years, not another treadmill team

Wiggins doesn't go from worst contract in the league to a promising rookie and two lottery picks in under 15 games.

Lowe is either delusional or an idiot

I'd give up Miles+filler for Wiggins. I like Miles a lot but I'm sold on Wiggins turning the corner.

Going after Wiggins contract because of 15 or so good games is irresponsible and just wrong. Thats what got us put in hell with Batum.

I like our team as is. I wish Bacon would have gotten off to a solid start as he destroyed any value he had. He still has promise but damn. Were developing good chemistry and developing together. We have solid veteran leadership in Zeller and most importantly Marvin (who I want to resign to continue that role). No need to shake anything up. Also I think its going unnoticed that Borrego has done an absolutely wonderful job with what he has so far this season. Stay the course. And who knows we may end up fighting for the playoffs with this younger group and Mitch can work his magic again. We don't have to have a top 3 pick to rebuild. Just a solid organization, a good plan, player development, and stick with the plan

Depends on if you believe Wiggins was kept down by Thibs, which I do. Don't think we'll get a better player in free agency.

If there s a chance to land Wiseman, it would be silly not to go for it. I really hope Hornets will tank for good soon enough. He is kinda the missing part of the rebuild.

I'm sure we will lose plenty, keep winning the ones you can, the boost to confidence is so valuable.

I’d Give Cleveland back their second for zizic.

They aren’t using him much and he is a good solid young centre.

There has to be a market for Marvin Williams out there. I think a lot of the contenders could use him in the playoffs. Currently, he has the 2nd highest 3 point percentage of his career at 40.8%. We could at least squeeze a 2nd round pick out of somebody before the deadline.

Marvin for Courtney Lee expiring and Mavs 2nd round pick.

Agreed, any way we can derive some value by offloading Marv's expiring for another expiring and second round, we should do so..

I like Marv as a mentor.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

I agree. Marv is an invaluable asset in the locker room.

Marv has been here since 2014. Our rookies over the years haven't exactly looked like that mentoring is doing any good.

Was listening to talk radio and the guy was talking about Marvin and not trading him so he could mentor the young guys. He made the argument that we've got a bench full of assistant coaches, if they can't mentor and teach the young guys then they should be fired rather than keeping them and vets on the roster. Thought that was an interesting point, haven't thought of that before.
