Lmao this is always my reaction seeing Miami mentioned. I'm sure Morey is tripping over himself to trade for the usual pu pu platter of junk that is thrown around

I mean, Bam is a great piece in an Embiid trade...

That's ok - his defense worries me..plays like this is likely why he barely got any mins last season on the Knicks:
?s=20
Then, let's look at the late season hornets vs thunder game:
-Early on, Giddey takes him off the dribble and scores easily
-At 4:43 Giddey just blows by him for the layup
-At 7:28 Svi can't quite close out on the shooter tight enough and Joe hits the 3
-At 7:58 Giddey is able to drive in and score way too easily here, with Svi getting hit by a screen while defending Giddey
-At 8:08 Jalen williams gets the ball, Svi defending him. Jalen is able to put the ball on the floor, go by Svi and score very easily
It's probably not ideal to have so many suspect defenders coming off our bench (Pritchard, Hauser, Svi, Brogdon, Kornet)
Also, while Svi shot the ball very well last season, it was on a small sample size of games. The season before that he only shot 30% from 3 and the season before that he only shot 33% from 3.
Terence Davis might be the guy..

I'm in favor of signing Rivers - only issue with him is whether he would be ok with more of a limited role.
per Washburn, Rivers "is looking for more than a mentor role.”
