I love Lauri and Sexton but they aren't irreplaceable world beaters otherwise we would already be a contender. If we try to enter win now mode I expect the result to be mediocre. Let's tear this bitch down and give ourselves a real shot of building something special.
The real problem is that we didn't really tank these last few years so we never bottomed out the way we needed to. Instead we half-assed it for the first half of both seasons which put us in no man's land. Hopefully this is the offseason where we finally commit to bottoming out like we should...
If they are willing to give up Murray plus some unprotected and swaps then they definitely enter the equation but I think that would be a mistake for them. I don't think adding Lauri and losing Murray gets them to contention. I would have strong interest though in pick 13 this year to go along...
If we do end up moving Lauri to OKC or Houston I bet the spurs would have some interest Sexton. I think he would be an ideal fit on that team and they would probably consider Sexton for the 8th pick and Graham if they really want to go into win now mode.
With Houston, Okc and maybe even the spurs I think you could see quite the bidding war to keep Lauri out of the other teams hands. Out of those 3 teams though houston can probably put together the best offer. An offer of Jabari Smith and the 3rd pick is pretty enticing because it is immediate...
I feel pretty good about a total clipper collapse for that 2027 pick swap. To me that is the real prize that the thunder own. If we are doing a deal with the thunder then these are the picks I'm demanding.
12th pick this year
Clippers 25 swap rights so either the clipper or thunder pick...
It's fun watching how confidently Castle is shooting the ball in this video. If he can get back that confidence as more of a primary option then he gets scary with his defense as well.
He looked pretty average to me. Not terrible but I wouldn't project him to be a solid defender in the nba. Particularly with the fact that I think he probably isn't a pg so he will be undersized defensively at the 2.
They will be in the picture as long as Jokic and Murray are still really good players but the west is brutal right now and only getting better. Next year I expect the griz to be firmly in that top 3 conversation and the rockets and spurs may not be far behind. For the nugs to stick around the...
