What's new

Dennis Schroeder "will seek other opportunities to be a starter"...

Why not though? Too many question marks around Exum. Will he retain his quickness after the injury? Will it affect his desperately needed confidence? Will he be able to develop a decent offensive game? Will he be good enough within a reasonable time-frame to compete while the team still has its core?

With Schroeder, you get one of the best young PGs in the league who can already produce at a high level. He can probably be signed for a reasonable amount of money, and it makes sense for Atlanta since they can take their time developing Exum behind Teague.
1.You are over rating Shroeder
2. You are under rating Exum.
3. The guy just came out in the press complaining about his use on his current team, and you don't need that type of me first player on your team (see Kanter).
 
I mentioned that he should be a target since the day Exum was hurt. it was obvious. Schro has gotten better and better and it seemed logical that this would be the season where he'd grown unhappy and say he'd want to be a starter.

I'd do Burke + OKC 1st + a 2017 protected 1st (top 18 protected) whose restrictions loosen over time.

Quite frankly, the Sixers have a ton of assets and really need to go after this kid.

I think #3 is the main thing being over looked. Going into the season he has made a very selfish comment about a situation he really can't control. This is similar to what Kanter did and he got killed by many. Why not keep this in house? Why would you want this person as your PG? From what I remember this isn't the first time he's said things like this. It was on leave of the knocks on him coming into the draft.

that hesitation on his inside-out dribble is crafty. He's been working on that.


(also, you can see why Pliess is struggling in the NBA... they let you set some bull**** screens over in Europe)
