Re: Trade Ideas, AKA Please God Bring Us Shooters
We don't have the assets for Holiday anyway 
Still think the list of expiring on bad teams is so long that I would be really disappointed this time if Presti doesn't add a good wing or PF that can shoot the 3

Diallo back in the rotation and no Abrines or Nader. Maybe they are on their way out?

Nader was sick per Maddie Lee.

2 picks for Hood? Thought it would be cheap to get Mirotic, Ross or whoever...

Keep hope alive
With the nuclear launch code secrecy that the FO operates under, it is anyone’s guess what will happen. They could get Ross or ellington. They could be jockeying for buyout guys like Matthews or whoever. Nothing should surprise any of us. Even an adams trade wouldn’t be shocking. Unexpected, but not shocking

Re: Trade Ideas, AKA Please God Bring Us Shooters
When I look at what Ferguson is doing compared to what a guy like Jrue holiday offers, i dont know if it’s really worth $23million difference between the two even if we dump schroder.
Today during the game they mentioned how the thunder really liked how Ferguson handled himself in Australia. We all know that he’s super athletic but what I like about him is that he plays with his head more than relying on his athleticism. Most of his defense is him trying to position himself appropriately and use his length to disrupt the shot. He’s not gambling too much on steals and blocks.
I think has he continues to develop we will start to see more of the athleticism on both sides of the ball. It’s kind of nice to see one of Presti’s atheltes develop the fundamental part of the game first before they try to show off their isoball and dunks skills.

Random questions with TPEs.
Did OKC use the Ilyasova TPE in combination with Cam, Morroe, Joffrey, when they traded for McDermott and Taj?
I know you aren’t supposed to be able to do so, but everything I can find and read about it says they used it some how

Re: Trade Ideas, AKA Please God Bring Us Shooters
Even for the thunder its been surprisingly quiet. The only guy a I recall hearing any kind of credible rumor about was Rodney Hood and thats done.

But even that - just like the Prince thing - was no definitive rumor, but one of those "Player xy is available. This and that team might be interested."ThunderBolt wrote:

Eh, only big move would be Adams with fillers for Davis.

Our starters are really good so in a lot of ways we don’t need a big move but we likely need more than one move/player to actually improve the bench.

Obviously he only fits as a buyout guy
