Hood traded to Cleveland for Crowder; Johnson to Sacramento

[str8line]

Is it true that we are sending Joe Johnson to Sacramento? Oh please tell me we didn't do that to him. That blows.

It's true. Sucks that we're losing Joe IMO. And he's gotta be bummed.

I like Crowder for the Glass Man though.

This is a bad trade! I really don't like it! People think Boston Crowder when they think Crowder. This is not what Crowder is nowadays. He's been trash all around - offense, defense, shooting, even rebounding.

I don't have as strong of a negative feeling as I did for the Rubio trade, but I would definitely have rather kept Hood if this is the best we could do.

just for the record, how do you feel about the Rubio trade right now? How will you feel if we win 60% of our games for the rest of this year?

you people are ****ing morons. Every single person who thinks JJ is going to play for Sac should be forced to delete their account

I do think Crowder can push Ingles to the 6th man role, that I like him in more. He can also be the backup to Favors.

He gives us lots of options and is a solid player. I expect him to fit into our system and be a solid player like he was with Boston.

But again we got very poor value for Hood.

Cavs didnt value Crowder that much. I am shocked we didnt get a little more for Hood, but I think Crowder will be good for us and maybe we have a plan this off season for chasing a FA like Gordon or Jabari.

Also, this trade probably means waiving Thabo or trading him is basically a given in free agency. Right?

If we get Boston Crowder, this works. Joe Jesus was, unfortunately, a victim of circumstance. Sounds like he'll be bought out though.

No way he put Ingles to the bench. Ingles shooting is too important in the starting lineup.

I think DL & Co really love Crowder. Probably more than fans do.

I know they love his contract.

 

[NAOS]

Ingles is, per minute, Gobert's best PnR partner. He isn't getting moved to the bench for Crowder.

I don't see any reason to unless somebody was willing to give up an asset. There's the saying "you can't have enough wings"

Crowder has been a starter for 3 straight years. How does he react to bench role?
