2022 NBA Offseason thread

Why are Lakers fans the only people who see any value in THT? Y'all should be lucky to get a broken office chair for him.

Because Lakers fans are wacko's?

@trojanfan12 @ChiefsLakers67 @shopson67 @Retroram52

I didn't really mean that.

But if they greatly improve this summer I'll be disappointed.

That's why if you add KD to those 2 and they would be dangerous.

Like I said, you can't include Barnes if you are Toronto

Not giving up on Okoro yet

I wouldn’t! That’s why I was trying to slyly slip you Thybulle. Two entirely different animals. Thybulle was a 4 year guy who has been working on his shot for the better part of 6 seasons as an isolated skill for needed improvement and he’s made little in the way of gains. Okoro is still like 21 (I think). He still has room to grow that game. Thybulle is 25 or 26. If it was gonna happen for him, you’d at least see signs of it.

This literally makes no sense. Sure Rubio will be out for a couple months but Conley has a partially guaranteed salary next season. They better throw in a couple 1st's

Yeah, Cavs should be able to do better with the Sexton asset.

Nor should you

I meant sexton and levert

 

[Shanemansj13]

Agree, I would give up both in the right deal

 

[dtgold88]

id take some picks for Sexton if they were pretty decent and save the money for a max FA next year--- if that was an option......

Cavs are in a good spot----

I just hope they dont give LeVert a crazy extension- not sold on him yet- id rather pay Sexton if I had to choose.

Cavs could easily get off of Okoro and Osman if they wanted to and open up over 50M in cap room next year.

Only question I'd have is will a max guy come here who is better than sexton?

I've thought for a while let's run it back with sexton, Levert AND Rubio (and we could do this) and see how they all fit together. As long as Sexton not signed to a crazy deal he could be moved if need be. we know Levert could be on his expiring deal (or just let it expire).

He's young (21), athletic and has decent size. So there's some upside. The problem is that he has been on a veteran laden team which has stunted his development because his playing time has been inconsistent.

He's never going to be a star, but if he can get get some development, he could be a solid role player. I think the biggest thing that could help him would if he concentrated mainly on defense. Hopefully, Ham's apparent emphasis on defense will help with that.

I like Okoro's hustle.

He's also a god awful shooter. In what universe would he be worth Sexton and pick? He's worth a 2nd rounder alone and a middle to late one.

Actually that was Adam Sandler. Kind of weird. One guy is white and Jewish and the other is younger and black.

lol

You thought that was serious?

 

[FinEndNow]

lol

The point still stands that the only people who put any value in THT are Lakers fans and the Lakers. Everyone else knows he belongs on Shanghai Sharks.

 

[dtgold88]

Ohh I agree Barrett is ok but I do not believe the Knicks think that. They can give up the farm for mitchell but what is Brunson, Mitchell and Randle winning you? A low playoff seed possibly.

As far as Mitchell I will say he has star moments but I still consider him a high all-star/star borderline player. I dont like what the Knicks gameplan though. Overpay for Brunson and then give up the farm for Mitchell. That being said, I donf want the Cavs to go after DM especially with what Ainge would be asking

Would seem odd to go after him as we are trying to get away from the small guard backcourt. Depending what we had to give up I might not hate it.

 

[ChrisperJ10]

[dtgold88]

Honestly, I’d rather have Sexton Allen and the picks. Mitchell is just gonna quell Garland and his development. One basketball and Garland’s pure bad ass speed is a trait most guys don’t have.

Might be wrong but think that's what he was saying.

 

[dtgold88]

Yep every fanbase has their homers some are just worse than others.
A Cavs fan proposed Sexton, Allen and picks for Mitchell LOL must be high as a kite

I might be confused but how is this a homer trade by a Cavs' fan when I don't think the cavs would make the deal?
