Central tank command : the official thread

Seriously, if we did trade Gobert for the Brooklyn pick, I'd then start selling off Hood, Favors and Joe Johnson. Stockpile 2nd rounders if that's all we can get. We'd almost assuredly get two top six or seven picks, and still have Rubio, Mitchell, Udoh, Bradley, and good locker room/glue guys like Ingles, Sefalosha and Jerebko. We could maybe get Doncic and Robert Williams, still be mediocre next year because we'd be so young, and have a shot at another lottery pick to get one more stud. I'd probably look to trade Rubio's greasy *** too though this season to really ensure the tank is done right. Maybe we could package Rubio and something else for a 1st and have three 1sts!

Rubio-Exum
Doncic-Mitchell
Ingles-Sefalosha
Williams-Jerebko
Udoh-Bradley



We'd then be so raw next year that we could very well have another top

You don't trade Gobert or Mitchell.

Then, we'll end up with the 8th-11th picks. Tank and tank right. **** it.

Lindsey drafted Mitchell with a late pick and Trey Lyles. Gobert was the 27th pick. I just don't think we need a tank to be a good team. We have two future all stars already.

I don't believe in Mitchell like everyone else.

Nets just won in Portland so j doubt that pick's gonna do us any good. Plus Cleveland’s willing to give up anyone that doesn't go by the name Lebron for a player like Gobert and I still don't think it's worth it.

And as for draft next year I really think we should go for Robert Williams and say goodbye to Grandpa Favs

Yeah, I'm sure that Brooklyn pick won't be top 10 or anything.

Rudy is the closest thing we have to a franchise player right now and he’s locked up long term. The team needs a reload/reboot. Gobert. Mitchell. Hood. Exum/Rubio. Add an asset at the trade deadline, then draft another contributor inside the top 10 after this lackluster season. Factor in great depth as well. It feels sucky right now, but I don’t think it’s as bad as Jazzfanz is making it out to be. They’re in WAY better shape than they were back in 2013 when they tanked under Corbin.

Hood, and very probably Exum, are pretty disappointing, and I doubt will ever be above average starters. Rubio could work as a playmaker, with others who can actually score, instead of chucking 16 shots a night. But I'm meh on him. Gobert and DM are the only keepers. Only ones worth worrying about.
 
How can anyone mention Hood in our long-term plans is mind boggling.

You dont tank unless you have a prize like Simmons waiting at the end.

Also, anyone else think Rubio is Shelvin Mack 2.0??
