After letting this trade marinate.... I'm going to take a wait and see approach.
I stand by my initial impression IF that is our only move.
But after thinking about I think this might be just the first of multiple moves to improve our bench. We might be looking into moving a few of the young guys into the rotation eventually. Or targeting a few buyout targets in February.
We'll see how it goes
Can't believe people are complaining about getting rid of dead weight and some 2nd rounders for a 2nd unit scorer that we definitely need. Some of you complain about everything.
If Clarkson never plays a minute we are better off than we were.
If he can only improve the bench scoring slightly, it’s a big win.
And I think Ben Anderson pointed it out on Twitter, but Clarkson will instantly be our 4th best plus/minus player. He’s not an absolute disaster as you’ve painted him.
The two 2nd-rd picks were the ones we acquired when we flipped Favors to NOLA, I think.
