How the gently caress is so much footage of Fultz practicing getting out. Why are the 76ers commenting about him so much?

MOVIE MAJICK posted:I'm curious about your intuition, are any of you guys convinced the Cavs have flaws serious enough to hamper their playoff performance, or is this just another LeBron boredom slump to you? If Love is healthy and plays well, and they do something to get a guard that can actually play basketball onto their roster, I can see it maybe happening, but: a) it is nowhere as a clear path as the last 3 years b) Isiah needs to be traded or play better c) lebron needs to play out of his mind If I were the GM of the cavs, i would do everything in my power right now to get Isiah off the team, even for nothing. He is absolutely valueless on the court and is clearly not helping their locker room situation.

The only thing I can guess is that Lou Will puts butts in seats, but they think that: a) They will not be good in the next 2 seasons b) That he does not move the needle on the teams w/l record

Cool Buff Man posted:I think this line of thinking is why the deadline is so quiet so far. Lots of people waiting on buyouts. Hopefully someone goes crazy and starts a mass domino fall but we've only got 3 and a half hours left! Yeah, I think that teams are going to settle for 2nd rounders in most cases. Tyreke for Shane Larkin + whatever to make salaries match and a 2nd rounder is probably all Boston will do, or anyone, for that matter.

morestuff posted:IT is a fine shooter, he's played like a dozen games this year IT really looks... not the same as a player out there. He has no lift and no legs. Sure, it could just be a conditioning thing, but he is a tiny man with a bum hip in a league of giants. Betting on him returning to his post injury form seems like a fools errand.

Bigass Moth posted:Lakers just dumping salary and hoping IT recovers? Don't understand their benefit from the trade otherwise. They have a glut of young forwards, so Nance Jr. was expendable, Clarkson in not part of their future, and they get a first rounder and salary relief. It seems like a no brainer for them. Im honestly surprised it was Nance and not Randel, though.

AggressivelyStupid posted:IT loving sucks IT was a rare combo of a player who was a net negative on the court AND a huge clubhouse cancer. Dude rolled onto a team that was mid surge, played like poo poo and then blamed literally everyone but himself. I've never seen a player do that before.

WhyteRyce posted:Even if you discount the possibility of IT getting his legs back under him, him sucking should have no impact on your decision making. He sucks? He's gone in the summer anyway. Locker room hates him and he's a net negative? Cut him. Clarkson is instantly their best guard on the entire team and Nance Jr. will get rotation minutes at both PF and C. This makes their team better Now for cheap, I dont see how this is a terrible trade for the Cavs. Clarkson can hit open shots and plays off the ball decently. Clarkson is way better than IT, puts them in a better position now. Nance is young, athletic and can play defense. If your argument is that IT sucked so bad that they should cut him, why would trading for decent-good players be a bad thing?

Henrik Zetterberg posted:As someone who is mainly a hockey guy, what does a protected v unprotected pick mean? You can basically say "If the pick falls between x and y in the draft you get _____ instead." Like, the cavs pick is probably Lottery (1-14) protected, or else it turns into 2 2nd rounders, or something.

Bubba Smith posted:I kinda want to see that Tristan + JR + Nets pick for Deandre Jordan now just cause it will mean that out of everyone from the championship squad only Kevin Love remains. That's kinda poetic for all the poo poo he's got over the years. LeBron tells everybody in the world gently caress you, I like Kevin. Pull up a chair. They quite literally cannot trade the Nets pick anymore. Also Calderon+Green for Tyreke and a 2nd rounder. GET ON THE PHONE LEBRON!!!
