We gonna waste these assets anyway if we don't move them by deadline. THT and KO are pretty much goners in the summer. Simone and Dunn's status are TBD. We lose them for nothing if we don't trade them now. Who we gonna bring in FA as their replacement? Probably no one. It’s gonna be Big AL/Millsap/Marvin all over again.
For whatever reason, I started out thinking this was a TJF post and after the second sentence I was about to blow a fuse.
That I will buy 100%. It seems the parity in the West is reaching insane levels, and the fact that we have 3 teams in the running to win less than 15 games sort of tells you about the competitiveness of all the other teams. I mean tank jobs have existed in the past, but right now Pistons are on pace to break Bobcats record of .106 win% while Spurs are simultaneously almost on the same pace as the worst year Process Philly had (and they were playing guys who didnt belong in the NBA at all).
Or draft Sarr.
That dude isnt close to ready to contribute at the NBA level IMO.
Nobody is trading something good for a pick in this lousy draft. It is the exact worst time to be forced into a tank. Memphis is probably hosed for a bit.
Ehh, you can definitely still get something good. You might be able to get Kuzma from the Wizards or Grant from the Blazers. Obviously it's not the best draft to be bad in, but a top 5 pick is going to get you nice pieces back regardless.
