2020 NBA trade deadline discussion

I’ll give it a listen. Kings won’t trade Holmes... especially not for what we are offering.

Len for Davis straight up would be nice. Len is ummm let’s say well... very physical and is a huge human. His contract is expiring so we’d get some third center assurance but on an expiring deal. They might do it to have a vet and they have infinity cap space next year without a lot of good uses for it.
His per minute numbers look a little better than I was anticipating. Maybe I’ll go watch some highlight videos and talk myself in to him.
 
Mavs might look for a big man now and they have expiring contracts and the GSW second round pick... which is pretty nice. Wonder if they get in on Thompson or try to swipe Morris away and ruin @infection ’s day.

We are going to have a hard time getting something done... the middle bad teams don’t want to give stuff up and there are a lot of buyers when the bad teams actually start selling. I’m preparing myself mentally that this might be our team come playoff time... so I’m going to embrace the warts.
 
PGAB rated Len a 99 coming out of the draft.

So, yeah. Obviously.
At some point I’ll bet he had some grainy footage of me in jr Jazz and thought I might be one to watch... he’d tell you he saw me first...

He’s a hatchet man but he’s had some moments of being effective on defense and offense. Surprisingly his foul rate was lower than I anticipated. I doubt he gives up and 1s like TB... because his fouls are the type you feel the next day... I’ll bet he starts a fight if he’s in the playoff rotation for someone... so maybe he gets LeBron suspended or something.

Has higher scoring averages than I thought. Shot the three well last year. Moves well after setting screens. Unfortunately this doesn’t show me what I really want to know: lateral quickness and mobility.
 
Len was sneaky good last year. I have no idea what he’s been up to this year. I’m pretty easily convinced he’d be our best backup center as long as he’s not a dunce (which he might be)

Once Clarkson happened it closed the door on Morris. That’s fine. I’d be willing to have him if he was willing to take the same role he had in Boston. But he probably wants a big contract from a bad team.

Watch the video above. If he can do that every night (I think he can based on what I’ve seen), I think we’d be sitting pretty. Get the banners ordered.

He’s more of drop 5... can protect the rim... like Tb he’s mobile for a huge human but not quick imo.

Just so I’m clear... when you say you think he can do that every night... you want him to get 33 points in approximately 16 minutes a game? Tia
