yea, so many people where pooping on MCD for trading the pick. Fast forward to now its looking downright genius. haters wont admit that though.

Uh it's not genius til we see if the 76ers get that pick or not. I still think it's gonna be a top 10 pick, the Lakers aren't gonna get that much better in one season and I doubt they land Gasol, Cousins, LMA, Love etc.

Maybe even if they get Love, it still won't be enough.

Interesting stat.

Marcus Morris made the 3rd most 3 pointers of any PF/C, only Frye and Anderson ahead of him.

Maybe he'd be the better stretch 4 starter.

As per past interviews, I think McD envisions Archie as a PG.
Looking at Archie's scouting videos again and highlights so far... he plays very similar to Bledsoe, they attack the rim similarly, although Archie's silhouette is so MJ like.

Trading Bledsoe for a big will open up Archie as backup PG behind Knight... Bogdanovic comes and shares the SG duty with Booker.

Makes you wonder if McD is really targetting Porzingis.
Or another PF who suits the back court's style of play.

*Hopefully*

How much do you guys see knight making?

The suns going to go forward investing a lot of money into two pgs?

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

12 to 15 mil per year. trades are allowed so at some point they can move one of the two. They can't let him walk for nothing.

That's what I've been saying! Markieff is the better player but Marcus is the better fit with Bledsoe/Knight/Tucker/Len
