Official Utah/Minnesota/Philadelphia Pick Watch

I havent watched them at all.. but Hardys system should work for BI if he moves well off ball.

Im more worried about his defense based on the metrics and that 5-10 record without Zion. He has 3 games with positive BPM in those 15 games....

Would have to watch him to make a call either way.
He's kinda iso heavy (haven't looked at the numbers... just when I watch that's what it seems like). It seems like they have 5 guys out there doing things but no real plan.
 
Wolves the dumbest team alive. You spend a considerable amount of assets and don't maximize the guy you traded for?
They really should have traded for Dejounte Murray instead of Rudy if they weren't going to plan around him. It would have been a more impactful use of assets. At least we get to benefit off their stupidity. I bet you in the next 18 months Rudy or KAT gets moved. They gonna ruin Ant.

Yeah then I would say no. I want to watch ball movement offense from anyone who is not a superstar. If we bring a superstar who plays 25% iso then so be it if the team is winning.. but no second tier iso guys please.
 
Quin built a whole team and strategy around making Rudy work. Paying the absolute premium superstar trading price for Rudy Gobert, and then just trying to insert him into a team (that doesn't have very good shooters) was asinine.

We eatin though.

E: Cy beat me.
I wonder if Atlanta goes after Rudy this summer... I bet you Quin would love to just recreate his Rudy magic with Trae. Murray/Capela for Rudy?

I think the cost would be prohibitive as well. I'd lean towards a slow build or a different type of player to acquire.

Thats not a bad callout. Trae loves to draw fouls on driving so he doesnt mind paint not being empty and he is the most fearless lob passer in the league.

If there is a player in the league who can make full use of Rudys strengths its probably him... assuming they can mesh and build good chemistry.

I actually can see something like this happening. I’d assume it would be Murray, Capela and Collins for Gobert and Conley though. I’d have to think that there’s other assets moving towards Atlanta if this happens - and where do those assets come from?

I would venture to guess its part of the reason Quin took the job... and remember he has some say in the personnel.

Hmmmmmm....

Maybe like the Sac pick... I don't think a lot of assets would need to move as Murray is an expiring contract and Capela/Collins deals are just as rough as Rudy's deal.
