Predict the Rudy Gobert trade

Can we tank and keep Donovan though?

Probably not… whatever you trade Mike Bogey and Rudy for will likely be solid players that help us win… unless Don gets hurt for the year I doubt it.


Also that’s the whole issue… Look how successful we already have been… you already are hearing the Don grumbles and you think he’s gonna be happy on a bottom feeder… nah… he’d want out yesterday. He ain’t waiting around for some young guys to get good.

Show me the list of teams that have been in the lottery for a decade and tell me which ones were “tanking”. Then I’ll show you the list of teams that have made the conference finals by tearing it down and bottoming out and we can see who has the longer list.

Just because you have high drafts picks all of the time doesn’t guarantee a damn thing.

There's a difference between true tanking and just being a bad team that is managed poorly...

The Kings havent tanked and to my recollection have never really tanked. They are constantly doing win now moves to chase the 8th seed that backfire in their face.

Hasn’t your entire MO been that Ryan is running the team into the ground? You have faith in our draft picks with him as the owner?

The entire point is you can get in the lottery as much as you want and get high picks but the problem is you actually have to draft well.

How far out is OKC from actually competing?
 
Like how can you include the WIzards as a "tanking" team when they have been kept Beal this entire time?

And you listed the Cavs as being a team that failed at tanking? You mean the team that tanked for Lebron James and enjoyed years of high level playoff success?

Is this the Jazzfanz village idiot?

I don’t think either team has tanked clown. They are mostly terrible at drafting which keeps them in the lottery.
 
Everyone acts like we are guaranteed to get the #1 pick next year if we tanked. What if we got the 4th pick and they ended up being subpar? Then what? Another year of sucking and hoping we get a good player in the draft? How many years is that going to go on for?

Dude you created a fake account named your new username to include a swipe at Donovan, you tweet about him every single day, you literally do everything to bring him up in any way possible. You literally brought him up in a tweet about Jordan Poole. You need some serious help man. I hope you get the help you need having an obsession like this isn’t healthy it literally has consumed your entire life. I’m worried about you man please talk to someone.

No clue what you are referring to.
 
Gobert is the generational player. He will get you to the playoffs basically by himself. He will age well because he has the Karl Malone mentality in taking care of his body.

Unless you can get a haul for him don’t do it. Don’t trade the guy that changed the culture. It’s not Quinn it’s Gobert.

It seems like Mitchell will get you more, move him. Specially because he has turned into a major db.
