Trade deadline discussion

Quin loves giving young players room to breathe and make mistakes… he’s so excited about this trade.

He lives for the mistakes.

He lives for the mistakes.

I seriously hate that he yanks JB and Forrest when they make mistakes we see the other guys make all the damn time. It is so hard to play basketball scared. I'd love to see what would happen if he gave JB half the freedom he gives JC.

Even Forrest who I was critical of was terrible when he was playing not to screw up. He's been so much better with a little bit of confidence.

What's especially maddening is that Quin's green-light with Clarkson is based entirely on this! LFF? He's not letting Clarkson shoot every shot because they're good, he does because he's trusting that more of them will go in if he's not playing with anxiety.

Great post. Well put.

Hughes will have an ULTIMATE revenge game against us. I bet he goes off for at least 35.

I doubt it. Rodney Hood never did.

Just for book-keeping. We have a 2025 and 2026 second round pick still.... but we can't trade them unless we change the pick protections on the first we owe Memphis. Or we can trade them but state if we have to give those picks to Memphis then they won't convey.

So we have like some theoretical seconds we can offer. Plan accordingly.

Is it possible the Lakers have actually found someone to take Westbrook?

Yeah Maybe the Jazz

If we could flip Gay and get out of his contract, that would be nice. That third year player option is terrifying…
