Official Caris LeVert Thread

[Papi_swav]

Has anyone in the world ever called LeVert a generational prospect? Or compared him to Simmons/Giannis? Or said he was 100% untouchable?

Super strange way to discredit LeVert. Its like jumping in the Jarrett Allen thread and talking about trading him because he's no Embiid or AD.

yes, in fact this all stems from the GB post where someone said levert is untouchable and i said that you defintely sell high on him if the right offer is there.

lol IDK Prok , you been pretty harsh on Levert since last year and still are, and we can go all the way back to last years and this offseaons threads, you have kind of been unfair to him. And I'm not getting on you or anything but I've noticed this. Just give the guy some credit, we all didn't think Levert would be this good.

Caris held Booker to 6-21 shooting, 4 TOs.

I'm only boxscore and highlights watching, but Caris is turning into a monster. He looks great. I love his story, and root for him to succeed. Desire and will are two powerful motivators, I think Levert has both.

False.

Calling someone a keeper is NOT the same as calling them a generational prospect or legitimately saying they're untouchable.

Allen is a keeper. Not someone were looking to trade. But it goes without saying if Golden State offers us Steph Curry, we take the deal. No one thinks he's a future MVP.

i agree. my point wasnt that he isnt a keeper. but that he isnt untouchable.

also, it doenst need to be curry. if someone offered us a unprotected lotto pick, you consider that

Prok, do you trade something like LeVert/DLo/Crabbe for Beal?

You don't include LeVert in that deal, unless our doctors tell us to (i.e. foot issues popping back up). At this point, the goal should be to add players to LeVert & Allen. Throw in picks, but not one of those two for a first time all-star. From Washington's side, I don't see them having any interest in DLo, unless they find a sucker to take Wall. If Washington makes a deal for Beal or Porter, they're going to want multiple young, cheap, effective players.

No... Beal for me is what I try to avoid at all costs. B-level star who makes near super-max money. A guy who eats up enough of your cap that you cant put a ton of talent/A-level talent around him and a guy who is best with high volume but if he is leading you in FGA you probably wont be a great team.

I think its a good bet levert or Dlo become at least 75-80% of what beal is for cheaper. And dumping crabbe doesnt really matter much taking on Beal's contract.

Beal is nowhere near Super-max money. 25% is hugely different than 35%.

levert for all star game!

[MrDollarBills]

The Alpha Dog with 17pts 5asts 2 rebs 1stl 1blk and the game winner versus Denver. Can we put all concerns to bed? This guy is consistent, confident, and aggressive.

0 TOs and stellar defense all night too

LeVert has now gone up against Devin Booker and Gary Harris and has outplayed them both.

[TheNetsFan]

How could Kawhi not want to be Robin to LeVert's Batman?

I half kid, but could you imagine Kawhi & LeVert locking down the wing positions for the next 7 years?

DLo-LeVert-Kawhi-T.Harris/Porter-Allen
Dinwiddie-Musa-J.Harris-Kurucs-Davis(Room MLE again if willing)
Napier-Draft Picks

There would be enough cap space to accomplish that if we move Crabbe.

I'm still upset by the lack of foul call on that final shot. Game should've ended on the FT line.

Harris should have been called for two reaching fouls and you technically could have called Milsap for a foul on the contact on LeVert's shot attempt at the end, dude ended up on the floor.

It is what it is. Ball don't lie
