Rosas also **** up taking Culver over Reddish, oh well.
We got a wing defender for him. And have dlo, Bev and Jmac for pgs. What is Rubio going to do here?
Prince barely plays, Ricky>beverly and jmac get real! Cleveland won that trade good for them they needed it.
So, I need to stop you right there. First, we got a trade exemption which will almost certainly get used by the deadline. We got an extra second which will also likely get moved by the deadline, and we got the most important thing of the offseason, we dumped Ricky. Ricky is starting well, but last season the term dumpster fire was generous. He played a large role in sinking the first half and was all over the place in the second half. Ricky had some truly great games with us, but he also had some games were uncontested layups were too much for him. Beverly is miles ahead of Rubio on defense and dollars to donuts will be more consistent this season. Even if Prince is a dud (not at all clear yet,) we still won the trade just by virtue of Ricky being elsewhere and not having to take a bad salary back. Two good games for Ricky does not an all star make.
