wtf

Lmao literally said this out loud when I read the news. Not sure if should be excited or laugh but atleast it's not an older player again.

Had a feeling the Clippers were going to get Bones Hyland. Hey, maybe he can help the Clippers actually beat the Nuggets.

I like it if it’s a precursor to another deal.

Like his swagger and offense but defense is well yeah.

Just imagine the three-guards-no-defense lineups Lue has planned with Bones. As Pusha T would say, "yuugh!"

I mean he's a young point guard, a guy we looked at before the draft, for the TPE. Not the guy we need, but absolutely 100% fine for the TPE.

This seems like a pretty reasonable take on him?

Well, it is not. Bones is pretty awful defender and very often hijacks offense, he´ll drible the ball whole possesion and take 30ft jump shot. So that´s why his future with Denver might be coming to end.

But! The talent is undeniable. He can make some incredible shots, is great crowd pleasurer and so sweet with the media. I wrote before- saying I don´t like Bones is like saying I don´t like puppies.

I can imagine him having Jamal Crawford-like career scoring 40, 50 points of the bench for several teams. But that is not what Nuggets need right now. But the selling price seems so low Denver will kind of regret this.

The way Ballmer buys 2nd rounders, this is basically a "free" swing...

WTF?? Bones Hyland?? We need a PG, not a young Jamal Crawford.

Need to try to make a move for Plumlee here somehow.

clipperlover · Post #411 » by **clipperlover** » Thu Feb 9, 2023 7:09 pm

The only way the Bones deal makes sense is if someone else is getting moved. He takes the scoring guard with No D role and the other scoring guards with No D are moved elsewhere.

Scoundreldays · Post #412 » by **Scoundreldays** » Thu Feb 9, 2023 7:09 pm

So is Bones basically a younger Reggie?

Max Headrom · Post #413 » by **Max Headrom** » Thu Feb 9, 2023 7:10 pm

I mean, I prefer to give him a shot than Lowry who's washed and FVV who can't play defense either. This is a cheap pick up that didn't cost the Clippers anything. Low risk move

Looks like y'all got Eric Gordon back too.

since my faith has eroded greatly over this season i will go ahead and say i don't have any confidence in this move

objectively this seems kind a first step before we move Reggie

The High Cyde · Post #419 » by **The High Cyde** » Thu Feb 9, 2023 7:14 pm

Still need a backup big
