If we don't get Drummond, Pelinka needs to be held accountable

All Miami gave up was Olynk and Bradley ... that’s a no brained because you keep Dragic, Herro, Robinson

They sign Aldridge and they gave a hell of a team and can play multiple ways

Least we didn’t nuke every member of our team to get him. But that said you would think they have to give him an extension now and let him retire a Raptor. If not it’s a dumb thing on their part to let him walk this summer or not offer him a deal.

I can’t even argue that they made themselves a better team.

They can still do sign and trade in the off-season.

olynk is huge for Miami off the bench. At least for us, he gave us fits for a couple games.

For what? For building a title team in year one. For building a top team with Bron and AD? For getting a Max deal out of AD or Bron extension?

You sound silly ... he’s done more in a year than money and others have for a career so far. Hell his resume matches Ainge right now

At least he doesn't throw away half of the team for Lowry.

Yeah if he wants to let you do one. That’s the thing about it all. How they handle the end of this year and any extension talks matter too.

If he wants to go to a contender that’s the only way, all contenders will be over the cap.

Maybe you can tell me out of Marc, Javale, and Dwight which of those three were the bigs not played off the floor in their last run and the run before that?

I’m damn comfortable with AD at the 5, Bron at the 4, and Kieff bed cause Dwight and Javale were cheerleaders

Yeah Miami is going to be there now too with this trade.

I really hadn’t thought about where he could land if he didn’t get traded. He may get a retirement tour contract and be the hero of a country now.

I kinda wish they had got him a big though when they decided not to deal him. Even something small like Whiteside for scraps. Siakam has been playing center and OG been the power forward. I can’t see that changing with Trent added, and I don’t see how they compete tbh

I dont think having Gasol as our starting center is optimal. But I do agree with the kblo that Pelinka has done a lot for our team. Two separate arguments you are blending into one which confuses the discussion.

AD at the 5? I think you missed his initial press conference, when he said he did not want to play the 5. And look what happened? He's injured. Cmon man, keep up with the info

Pelinkas whole plan for the 5 this year revolves around 1 thing. Signing Drummond. If we don't get that done, Marc Gasol is our go to.
