Go listen to Lowe and McMahon… they are convinced we become sellers.
Ive heard them.. but they seem to base their prediction on the general conception of what rebuilding teams do rather than what we are reportedly doing.
Tim was literally in SLC. If you think we are going to be buyers then I think you are hearing what you want. If we had first round offers on our guys we’d take them… we will be opportunistic on adding actual players but everything we are doing is with an eye towards 2-3 years down the road. That doesn’t say “buyer” to me.
as long as his name rhymes with tudy may then I hope you’re right
You didnt read what I posted. I didnt proclaim anything... I asked the question, and even repeated that by saying "the signs are mixed". You are the one with stronger conviction, and picking the expert you choose to trust here. So you are the one hearing what you want.
That's what happened in the Don and Rudy trades!
Both are true. The reality is we have made everyone available except (Lauri, Ochai and Walker) that means we are open for business. But given the assets we have we are on the hunt for 3 and D players and positional size as previously mentioned by Tony Jones. In this market I think it is unlikely that we buy given the elevated values. Unless the FO is looking at a sell high, buy high proposition.
Heck, yes. That's probably what made the DM trade so satisfying. We were talking about mediocre pieces like Toppin and Reddish and we end up with Lauri, Sexton and Ochai.
1. They are trying to win now bud. Developing 2nd year players isn't great for that
