I wouldn't be oppose to trading ryno. He's a good player but pels need something else.


He's too one dimensional for my taste and is a luxury player on a team with deficiencies that can't correct his inability. He needs a superior center imo, AD just isn't big enough to dominate as center and asik is not remotely a threat offensively

Ben Simmond is the prize, I will be pissed if he becomes a 76er.
Skal Labissiere can shoot like a 2/3. Not enough strength yet for inside.

Weak draft overall 2017 will be better.

Lol I have no idea if that is remotely possible but I'm a Crowder fan.

Sacramento is the wildest of wild cards this trade season. They should clean up trading cousins but they're so dysfunctional you know they'll screw that up.

It's so quiet in the garden that I can actually hear this thread.

Pels need to make some moves though, even if everyone healthy, not nearly good enough to get past several in the west.

Andre Drummond is a fricking beast. So many passed over him too.
SacTown wanted rebounding help and took TRob. Bust at the 5.
Drummond, Lillard, AD nice draft in 2012

Really? I thought winning a championship was the prize. Not perpetually wanting the top pick in the draft.

Simmons, of course winning a championship comes first. Talking about NBA team personnel next season

Asik looked pretty useless early. No reason to not give Ajinca a try though. Against Atlanta though Gentry said he didn't like Asik and Ajinca vs Horford. So we're paying $20 per year on 2 guys that will only play against other lumbering bigs. Maybe you should have mentioned that to Demps earlier Uncle Alvin.

The Hornets really wanted to draft Drummond. When he was still on the board at 9 they must've been elated but of course Detroit picked him and we were stuck with Rivers.

That would've been a GOAT draft if Drummond fell one more pick

We were also one pick away from Paul George

Could have competed for championships had Drummond fallen to 10, surely to God the Pels would have taken him over Rivers.

I think if SacTown blows up, Boogie for 15 mil is a bargain. Plus he and AD get along and are friends. A player next year of his caliber would cost 25-30 mil a season.
Move some of the dead weight we have if possible.

Pels don't have the assetts to get Cousins. Boston has plenty of young players and picks and has been interested for a while. At best we could be a facilitator with some big expirings.

I'd love to have Boogie. But I really doubt we could actually get him.

They have the assets to get cousins. It is just the team would only consist of cousins and ad if they make the trade

He wants to win and seeing an opportunity to play with an actual all star
Gordon contract up?
I don't think Boogie really wants to build. Stevens is a great coach, could he handle Boogie?
I will never forget how funny the story of Pete Thamel going to Boogies home when Cal brought him to UK. Snooping for a story. Dude has balls or is crazy. Knock on his door and a fricking pissed off Boogie answer the door in his neighborhood? Lmao. Boggie has a brother big as him
