Trade deadline discussion

He's for sure playing over JB, I don't think there's any question about that. Not sure how Quin will handle the minutes between him and Forrest...maybe he'll go with a three guard rotation off the bench of Forrest, JC and NAW? I'm also not sure how House factors into this, he probably deserves rotation minutes as well.
House can play center.
 
Even if NAW plays great?
I mean I keep hearing that if NAW gets better at decision making, shooting, finishing and plays better defense than he has then he will be a pretty great player. So if he gets better at basketball things.

He's a fine prospect but I feel his minutes will be larger than is justified because he's the guy Danny traded for. That all.
 
So this is what my buddy from Philly texted me last night:
Utah made a good move. They traded Ingles and he might never play again. I can't believe anybody would take him! Risky!
And all it cost us was a couple of second rounders and a G League Alum and yet everybody around here is glum.

And yet it's party city in Philly right now cause they finally got something for Ben Simmons. And it only cost them Steph's younger brother, their backup center (Drummond) and two first rounders.

Perspective
Big time party in Philly. Philly hit a grand slam today.
 
Yall really going to fall for the "we almost traded" thing....this soon? lol
I didn't read it that way... but I'm waiting for the Ainge press conference... we will hear it fo sure.
 
Handful of teams are stunningly quiet... OKC, Atlanta, Lakers, Knicks, Memphis (i get that one), GS

Kinda weird.
 
So with that being that... Not really thrilled with the direction we went.

Ingles + 2 2nds should've been in range for a real contributor on a meh contract (eg Josh Richardson) and instead we went for saving some money and a prospect who hasn't looked ready to contribute.
