Home Run Offseason

[MrBigShot]

Is he general consensus on here that Burke will be better than Knight?

If so, we could trade Knight to ORL for Tobias Harris, then do Stuckey (or Jerebko) to Denver for Chandler.

I just worry that Knight will be better than Burke long-term. He's the better shooter and defender, and is bigger. Burke is the better passer, that's about it.

Burke shoots a better percentage, on 5 attempts a game. I think he's a better shooter on the move, and his biggest advantage is not his passing but rather the pace he plays with. He knows how to play the position. He's not shaky and out of control...he's efficient, doesn't turn it over that much and play within himself.

Still haven't given up on Knight though, for the record. I just like Burke a lot and if the FO sees Knight as a 2, I'd rather have Burke.

Shabazz scares me the most. I feel like picking him would came back to haunt us. I like what I've seen out of Middleton more tbh.

A home run season in my book is more along these lines

1) Draft PG- Trey Burke or Micheal Carter Williams at #5, Adrian Payne at 35, BPA at 57

2) Trade Brandon Knight and Kyle Singler to NOH for Eric Gordon
Trade Jerebko to Denver for Wilson Chandler3) Sign Eric Maynor

Trey Burke/Maynor
Eric Gordon/Stuckey/English
Wilson Chandler/Middleton
Greg Monroe/CV/Payne
Andre Drummond/Slava/BPA

We get a real PG + 2 shooter/scorers on the wing to spread the floor for our bigmen

2 terrible trades right there,

These are cap saving trades btw since you obviously didn't realize that. But Im sure you thought Marcus Camby for a 2nd rounder was a terrible trade as well.

Jerebko for Chandler would be terrific.

If you meant "terrible" as in unrealistic, then the 1st is probably a tad unrealistic. I think NO feels they can get something of value for EG, not just cap relief. To be fair though, he is coming off an injury, not as athletic as he use to be and not a max player. I bet they ask for a pick.

The Denver trade isn't unrealistic because between Iguodala, Gallo and Chandler...there isn't enough to go around. They will probably look to resign Iggy and get rid of Wilson.

Nothing wrong with what Princeofpalace is suggesting...at least the he(or she?)is trying to utilize some our cap space through trade, because lets face it...odds of us hitting big in FA and getting Mayo/Josh Smith/Iggy aren't really that high to begin with.
