Draymond is a worse shooter and, despite being such a great passer, I think he is by now limited to setting up Curry.

Giannis should be their full-time center. But we shouldn’t go after Lopez anyway.

well well well look what we have here - melo advocating for another scrub

Mf im not even a fultz fan like that :lol: but he did average 14 PPG 5.7 APG shooting 51% from the field in 2022-2023 season. He regressed a lot this season though. I dont really watch orlando games so i wonder what happened. He looked like he was making a great comeback from what happened in Philly

He looks capable when he plays but he still can’t shoot. I wouldn’t say Payne is the better player because I like Fultz. But he’s still very limited offensively despite all the athleticism and skill that he has shown. Payne on the other hand is a steady shooter and, needless to say, McBride is better than both of them.

Lopez is too old and Vuc is too washed especially on defense. No thanks.

Draymond + Trayce Jackson Davis + unprotected 1st + 1st round pick swap for Randle... hmmm I'd think long and hard about it...

having giannis get beat up all year trying to guard centers full time doesn't seem like a good idea

Wonder if we were one of the teams looking at Bruno… I’d be good with him, Mitch, Achiuwa, Sims, Huk (G-League call up if Mitch goes down) at center for the season…

I heard Michael Sweetney has slimmed down to 400 pounds. Knicks should sign this blimp. I mean beast.

Ultimately I don't think we can trust Draymond but I'd also thought of a deal around Draymond, Moody and a couple firsts.

Draymond would be great as a small-ball 5, giving us two different looks defensively. I just have the impression his career is on the verge of precipice with his increasingly unhinged behavior and activity in media.

What contracts do we have to move that can even match the Brooks, Capelas, Vucevic of the world? Just precious S&T?

A) I just hate current Draymond. He is all mouth, no ball. When his team is losing, he pouts and gets tossed so it looks like the team is better with him.

B) Funnel on defense does not work with Draymond, that's why the Warriors haven't won without Bogut or a Bogut type.

C) Green gets the benefit of Warriors Whistle. Here he'd be tossed out during warm ups and when he did see the court, he'd get 6 personals and an arrest by the end of the 1st.
