It’s always seemed like MKG is a good fit in Sacramento. They need a wing whose primary focus is defending and rebounding.

Bacon for something. I'd take a heart attack at this point. Seriously, any takers? Does the coach watch the game?

i think he was inserted in the Starting Line up a bit too early ... He's not ready. I was ready to post something like "yeah we should trade him".

But I got this vision, just before posting, that he'll figure it out.

Bacon will explode some day.

Monk to OKC for Nerlens Noel. If Borrego can make Biz look serviceable, he may be able to make Noel a serviceable starter. We need rim protection. Cody isn't the answer anymore.

Zeller for Kanter, Theis, and Milwaukee's 2020 1st.

We cut Theis and tell defense to go to hell by starting Kanter :evil:

Sorry, i don't know much about NBA rules, i just like the game. So, somebody could explain to me if there is any rule prohibiting a franchise to hire a international player without a draft pass

Really depends on the player. There are exceptions, but generally if the player is at least 22 and his rights aren't already held by an NBA team than he is effectively a free agent in the NBA. Younger players still have to go through the draft (they'll automatically be entered their age 22 season) unless they declared early.

Thanks! NBA rules is VERY confusing to me. Soccer (here in Brasil, sports is pretty much just soccer) is SO much simple!

Bacon to BKN for Rodions Kurucs

with offseason roster additions Kurucs seems to have fallen out of the rotation in BKN

would be an exchange of guys picked #40

Apparently on his podcast, Zach Lowe floated the idea of a Wiggins trade for PJ/2 1sts/matching salary. Why

Wiggins has had a great start to the year. I'd consider the trade if we had more 3 point shooters, but don't like the idea of Bacon, Rozier, and Wiggins all clogging the middle of the lane.

We know Zach Lowe is the only member of mainstream media who consistently pay attention to this franchise, but after this BS trade iea, I now believe that he's hate-watching us. We know that he doesn't like MJ because he keeps harping on MJ turning down multiple draft picks for #9 in 2015 draft, and now he's spouting this bull. It's like he doesn't want the Hornets to actually improve and get out of mediocrity. **** that guy.

I’d be sooooo pissed if we trade pj. I like him, I like his confidence. You don’t find this very often in the nba. Confidence but not stupid confidence.

You know, like there is Kawhi confidence and Lance Stephenson confidence.

Pj is on the Kawhi side of confidence.

If you FO is reading this thread, don’t trade pj.

If Wiggins continues playing like he is, I'd love to have him.

Trading wiggins for pj straight up makes me laugh. Adding 2 first just makes me think Lowe is a **** idiot.

I've seen people call 3J Washington baby Horford because of how smart he is. I would be pissed if he's traded, you don't trade guys like him.

Devonté + Wiggins is a strong backcourt. But Monk is starter material and Wiggins would be blocking him or Miles. I wouldn't dream of trading PJ for Wiggins but I could live with Rozier + a first rounder + filler.
