re: What IS BI's market value
Posted by Dinky Mulberry on 4/28/24 at 7:50 pm
Another way to look at it is...knowing all we know about BI's overall game & his expected pay for the next few years...
IF...BI was out there on the market & not currently a member of the Pels...WHAT would we be willing to offer in a trade...to get him to join the Pels? Be honest with your answ...

[quote]Dinky was probably right in hindsight. They should have intentionally lost our game. I think they can beat almost anyone in the West other than Denver.[/quote]
Yep...could have easily tanked that last game vs Pels by claiming AD's back injury at end of previous game with us was acting up. ...
re: I’ve seen enough: Build around Z/Herb/Trey

MUST see what Daniels can do. Next season should tell us. Just run him out there as a starter and see what happens. If he can't handle it on the offensive end...worst case...you can always just stick him in the corner where he shot 39.2% this season. We DESPERATELYT need another elite defender to he...

sure that may work over the span of 82 games in the regular season.
It's the style that will produce the most success when you have 4 below avg defenders in your starting lineup over the course of a season.
And it worked.
But you can't change that style entirely once the play...

[quote]6. We need to seek SGA out on defense and make him work.[/quote]
Very good info. It's hard to "hunt" SGA when he's on defense...mainly because they are gonna put him on Herb and we currently have Herb spending nearly all his time standing in the corner. One of the problems with ANY "dedica...

Nuggets didn't miss a single FT in the 2nd half...of course, they didn't MAKE one either....

In simplest form, in the modern NBA you can't build a contender around two stars who don't shoot 3-pointers and aren't great defenders. Math doesn't work...[/quote]

Can his shot take the same jump as Herbs?
If so, LOVE the upside. If not, he’s an average bench dude.[/quote]
NO way he can take a "jump" on 3s...like Herb did this year...41.8% is a bridge too far...I'd luv to see Dyson shoot 35-37% from 3 this next season...and after that, just smal...

I hope to see growth in Dyson’s playmaking ability which includes being able to drive lanes and score inside. His shot has been improving which I expect to only go up.
Both Dyson and Trey will be around for quite some time I hope.[/quote]
I'm hoping that BOTH Dyson and Herb expand the...

---I still think Trey will be a solid starter...so it's not a shot at him. I just really like Dyson's potential.
---BTW: My definition of "better" is...which player gives you the best chance to actually win a serious game of basketball...like a playoff game in the NBA....

[quote]For what reason? Are you saying the Lakers are going to drop the game on purpose?[/quote]
I'd bet that LeBron has given it serious thought...as to what would be best for the Lakers. Luv him or hate him...he's pretty sharp. I just gave my own opinion on what I think Lakers should do...rest ...

What the hell is this stupid arse notion either team would want to lose on purpose to avoid the nuggets?

I’ll be back if we get the 8 seed. Facing Denver is a lost cause.[/quote]
Yep...I'm afraid that beating the Lakers in this next game...will be one of them "Phallic Victories"...like that Greek guy vs the Romans....

Watch whats going to happen. Lakers will sit AD say hes hurt but want to avoid nuggets. Watch us win against lakers without AD to get nuggets in a series.[/quote]
