It's happened plenty in the past as well when teams have needed to include a first rounder to dump salary. Other teams should try to get something of value from Miami to take a garbage player. It doesn't help that he has a player option for 2017-2018. The situations are also different because...
That's the justification I'm going with as well. The front office must be really high on Zubac.
What do you think of Nikola Jovanovic? He's on the Lakers summer league roster and looks like a fairly mobile big with a decent jumper.
I don't think it's wrong for people to change their minds, but the optics don't look good for KD. David West a couple of years ago also said something about not going ring chasing in his golden years.
He was bad all season shooting the three, although he really didn't shoot that many. It looked like he could barely get it to the rim from distance! He has very good court vision and passing skills but big holes on defense and perimeter shooting.
They offered Bazemore a contract before Deng. I liked Bazemore when he was with the Lakers. I was hoping they would keep him and Ed Davis.
So disappointed that all 4 years are guaranteed for both Mozgov and Deng. However, that just may be what it took to attract decent players to a 17 win team.
