I'm not holding my breath on KPJ becoming a core piece on a championship team.
He played like a Championship player w/ the Bucks & Giannis in the regular season. Only some OKC duos beat them in net rating. And KPJ averaged a cool, efficient 21/7/7/2.3 per 36.
As for the postseason, it was his 1st. The list is long of players who floundered out the gate, Giannis included (11.5 pts, 36.6 % from field). The length, athleticism, moves, 3-level shotmaking, vision, & competitiveness are palpable.
He's a good rotation piece. Just don't know if he's built to be a big-time playoff contributor. I'm not against bringing him back just for the record. Just like some of what Cole Anthony brings as well.

What? Cole Anthony isn't any good. He's a 6'2" shooting guard masquerading as a point guard. His efficiency is bad.He doesn't have great vision and he certainly isn't someone who can stay in front of other guards.
Come on guys.

I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Love it for Brooklyn if that pick is truly unprotected and not a swap in any way.Matches Malone wrote:

Denver’s gonna be awesome next year and that’s a sweet pick that Brooklyn got out of it. Decent trade for both sides.imo

OK.
You seem to have posted stats from 41(?) out of KPJ's 45 games with the Clippers last year... why? The more relevant stats would be his 30 games with the Bucks.

Draft Missi who looked pretty promising.
Trade a potential huge future first to draft Queen.
Target a center at free agent opening.
Can we get Missi?
