So Knicks or Hawks? Can't think of another dumb team. Kings?

Drummond likely rental unless team is willing to pay max/near-max.

why do we need looney or wcs? they are both worse that theis and kanter, and i'd rather have timelord getting the scraps.

burks for semi/green/pick works.

Looney is merely salary, wcs is as capable as theis, but only larger.

Uh yeah is he. Guess you haven’t seen Gallinari play much? His game is very similar to Hayward’s.

Gallo is a decent passer, can run the pick-and-roll and can drain threes, which forces his defender to step out of the paint to deal with him and opens up lanes for others. That’s the definition of a facilitator.

I have seen Gallinari play a bunch. I disagree that he’s a facilitator.

Then you should open your eyes more or seek out an optometrist for glasses.

Because clearly you haven’t watched his career then.

Don’t need the insult dude. Just continue to make your points. It’s not personal.Youre in an island in this one, man. I don’t think anyone will agree with you on this one.

[Andrew McCeltic]

Gallo is a fantastic scorer and he’s actually better than Hayward at getting to the line. But I don’t understand your definition of “facilitator”- he spaces the floor? He’s not as versatile a scorer as Hayward and he doesn’t have anything like the same offensive awareness.

Just having fun bro, don’t be so sensitive...

And I don’t really need a pat on my back from posters who are wrong. If you’ve watched Gallo play his entire career, his game is the definition of facilitator. Not sure that’s worth a debate, but hey, have at it.

What’s not to get?

He’s a good passer, runs the pick-and-roll well, hit threes at a decent clip and opens up lanes for others to drive by stepping out of the paint. That’s the definition of a facilitator. That’s Hayward’s game as well.

We are are well aware he’s not as good as player as Hayward. But the point isn’t to trade for another Hayward, it’s to use his money to acquire a legit Center and use spare parts to get a player who’s a poor man’s Hayward who can do a good enough impression and improve our scoring off the bench.

Impressive. the one person alive who thinks Gallo is a facilitator is telling people they don't watch him play

Impressive. Took me two seconds to google “Gallinari” and “facilitator” and already found people alive and well who agree with me, including Doc freakin Rivers...

“Gallo is probably our best facilitator on the team, so when you take him out of the lineup, you can see the extra passes missed,” Rivers said.

It literally says exactly what I think it says, right there in black and white.

You were wrong, it’s okay.

[Bleeding Green]

Gallinari is a facilitator, just not very good at it. Just like how it's fair to say Russell Westbrook is a three point shooter. He's just awful at it. You're both right.

Doc said he was the best facilitator on the team. The roster didn't have a PG. Gallo was the best option, doesn't mean he is good.

You were wrong

He's not the facilitator Hayward is. Hay can run point for a minute, Gallo not so much. Gallo has good passing skills but he's more of a opportunistic passer. Hay can run an offense and make plays.

He ain't worth that. Easy pass if that's his asking price.

Not sensitive. Not at all. I was trying to say even if we don’t agree the other stuff serves no purpose. You’re throwing little digs. It’s passive aggressive. Not necessary. Ya. It’s not worth a debate. We disagree. Who cares. Have a great day.

Ok. This helps me understand I guess. If you can be a facilitator even if you are not really very good at it I take it back and I was wrong.

Looney, burks and wcs
For
Poirier, semi, green bucks pick.

Gs saves 3+ mill. Adds a pick

They need to save $5m.

[Fencer reregistered]

In case it hasn't been posted yet (Edit: Actually, it had ), a local Detroit paper on Drummond trade stuff. Apparently, he's being priced as a luxury rental.

Then drop semi and cut looney and I believe it still works.

I heard from a person with knowledge today that the Celtics have interest in trading for Alec Burks from Golden State.
I wouldn’t mind that one bit. 6’6 combo guard that defends fairly well, 36% from 3, averaging 15ppg in 29 mpg for a bad team. Could give Boston quality backcourt minutes for 15-20mpg.

Would be an awesome addition. He would basically be what Edwards should be but is not yet.
