Re: Offseason thread vol 9 - RUN IT BYK
ESPN NBA Rank:
Jimmy and Bam - top 25, announcing 25-11 tomorrow
Lowry - 60
Herro - 61
This list looks a little better than the CBS list imo. There were some laughable guys ahead of ours on CBS.
Timberwolves the only team with 3 in the top 25 in this ESPN listing though with Edwards, Towns, and Gobert. I don’t like that

Robert Williams out 4-6 weeks with knee surgery he very clearly needed at the end of the season. Celtics trying to save some money delaying it?

Don't think so, everybody who has ever played with long hair, that is not a female used to it... underperforms ...long hair is a distraction I guess

Re: Offseason thread vol 9 - RUN IT BYK
Getting Crowder back at very least adds stability back to the 4 spot. Has great relationship with our core. If a deal is there i say we go for it. Looking at possibilities without giving up a pick and a deal of Robinson and Jovic for Saric and Crowder works out to the dollar.
We get 19 million worth of expiring's and get two veteran 4’s. Suns get themselves a shooter in Robinson and a young cost controlled big in Jovic for having to take on Duncan’s salary. Deal looks good for both sides.

That trade makes no sense for them. This will be like the Woods situation where the team wants an expiring and a pick. Here we are offering a net negative player and a big when they just maxed out Ayton. Also remember they are still on the Durant hunt or another star player, so they again have no need, value or desire for Duncan. Maybe if we trade 3 unprotected draft pick it might peak there interest but they are also adverse to paying the tax so unless a magical third party is added that wants Duncan, we just not good trading partners.

Holy **** this list took a massive turn for the worst today lol. They were looking solid too. Any list without Jimmy in the top 10 is invalid

Why would the suns want a young 4 after trading 2 of theirs and maxing out a center? Your post makes no sense lol

This whole trade is about trading a rookie who didn't exactly light up the summer league with Duncan who has 4 more years remaining in his contract for 18 million dollars in expiring contracts. Common sense man, no way would anyone take on Duncan for Jovic at this stage. Maybe Jovic breaks out or something but right now that proposal gets rejected by the Suns.

Then say that lol the reasoning of them not wanting Jovic because they just signed a guy who plays a different position is what didn’t make sense.

Im not giving up Jovic for a 32 year old Crowder. Sure Crowder is gonna fill a need but we would still be in the 2nd tier in the East. The first tier being a healthy Bucks & Boston.
Jovic is a nice talent. I doubt he'll contribute much this season or next season, but in 3 years time I can see developing into Bogdavinic type player, a high value role player and perfect 4 in the modern nba.
We should just be giving up assets to get marginally better.
