What's new

Sacremento 8?

I know my suggestion is not a fan favorite and I can't blame you guys but imo, Burke and Kanter are so limited in so many ways that they're of no use to me if I'm the GM, other than as trade assets.

I think Payton will be a top five player from this draft ten years from now. He's got size, length, athleticism, skill, comes from a small school which I think is more of an advantage than disadvantage, and maybe most importantly, comes from a lineage. If you look at second generation pro athletes, they succeed far, far greater than just the regular pro. They've been groomed their whole life on how to be a pro and what it's going to take to not just make it, but make it for a long time by maximizing their ability. This will be Payton imo and I don't think my last sentiment should go unnoticed by our FO.
 
My ideal situation would be to come out of this a week or so from now with Wiggins, Payton and Favors as the core of our team going forward.

Kanter, Burke, Hayward and Burks are all on the table. Favors should be too but he's the guy I really want to keep. Sadly, to get Wiggins, that's probably not possible.
 
I already made a post about this months ago. Kanter for the 8th.. 8th and 5th for the 1. Peace
 
Love Payton. . . but not at 8.

To be perfectly honest, I only like the idea of getting Derrick Williams and/or Jason Thompson back from the Kings. Landry and Terry are both too old and have too much money tied up in future years to make it a good idea. Thompson, Williams and one or the other might be worth it, but I think that's a hard sell for them.

I'd probably just look at picking up Lin and the 25th pick instead. I'd certainly be willing to have both of those conversations.

Just for argument's sake, let's say that the Jazz did take on Williams, Thompson and Terry for #8.

I'd want them to end up with Aaron Gordon and probably Marcus Smart. Get better on defense in a hurry.
 
I think sac wants to get a solid vet and get rid of a few of their undersized or mediocre PFs, more than just cap relief
