2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

[Mecca]

Deandre Ayton is a free man again. 25 game suspension served and will play tonight against the Clippers.

I will be at the game to watch you beat us for the 2nd time.

Sadly, I was at the first game too.

I don’t know if Booker is playing. He’s missed the last two games (both heartbreaking losses) with a bruised forearm.

I never know if Kawhi is playing and we are missing almost all of our guards.

Shamet is back. But, I haven't checked on Lou, Beverly or Mcgruder.

Gonna trade him for KCP at the deadline.

sure, because they both work for Klatch...

um, or was it Clatch...?

someone get Butt Phallus in here, HE knows this stuff...

 

[Black Adam]

In previous years, this would be prophetic.

Thank GAWD for the Logo and Lawrence Frank....lol

P.S. KCP definitely picking up that 9 mil player option.

So, y'all stuck with that scrub.

@shopson67 says he has a NTC.

So, enjoy....lol

"scrub" has actually slightly picked it up...

not enough to get anyone's attention outside of us, but slightly...

 

[dtgold88]

I am only talking about his trade value.

And that will be proven definitively.

Unless they decide they want to keep him. But I realize you have the ear of the FOs and they will tell you what they were offered.

 

[bksballer89]

Haven't you guys heard? Aron Baynes is a JAG.

Signed,
- Every Cav's fan on this site for some reason.

Heat could use him big time

 

[Gman]

Heat could use him big time

I'd love to have him back on the C's... don't think it can happen, though.

Shame that trade-off had to be made.

any load management going on this time...?

@bksballer89 , @tlance

What's your take on Myles Turner?

I think the Clippers might deal Trezl.

I hate that idea. But, if they know his number is too high, like with Tobias last year, you gotta do it to avoid him leaving for nada.

Saw this coming as soon as he signed with Klutch.

I keep seeing Turner's name on the block too.

I guess they don't think he and Sabonis are compatible.

I think they should wait for Dipo to get back before making that decision. But, whatever...

I hate his shot selection. But, he can give rim protection.

Thoughts?

What would it take outside Trezl and a expiring Harkless, who I also want to keep, to get Turner?



I guess I should tag @HurricaneDij39 too.

I do think Turner might be dealt eventually because of his contract, but I never imagined it being this soon. If it was for Harrell that would be something Pritchard would need to seriously consider.

An extension agreement with Harrell would ultimately be the biggest factor in getting such a deal done. Given the Clippers' lack of draft assets, it would essentially be the only factor.

He has.

He was never a scrub, just massively overpaid in the past.

lol yeah who could argue that part...?

Yep.

Jerome Robinson or a 2050 first rounder doesn't really move the needle.

Wherever he lands, they will have his bird rights. How much he wants is still a mystery.

I'd imagine the Clippers have attempted/ will attempt to get a deal done before shipping him out.

That's what they did with Tobias.

They offered him 4/80 which he wisely turned down.

If Trezl prices himself out, not much they can do.

The guy is massively underpaid.

 

[Mecca]

Nobody.

Probably not even him.

I don't even know what team would be a good landing spot for him.

Because, he is most definitely picking up next year's option.

Maybe Houston with Green gimp for the year?

lol yeah, we might not get our money's worth, but maybe 30 cents on the dollar...?

hey, just puttin' it out there...

I don't think you'd trade him just to trade him.

He's not a malcontent.

You'd only do it to improve the roster.

Problem is, Kuz is the only thing tradeable , that would get you something good, without giving up picks.

You'd have to eat a bad long-term deal, mortgage the future.

* See Blake or Cp3

Why do that at 30 cents on the dollar when you'd have to gut the roster to make salaries match?

Green, KCP, Kuz for a legit #3, sure...like CJ Mccollum, Jrue Holiday.

For a broken one?

Hell no....lol

Keep an eye on Derozan and Aldridge though.

Maybe Love.

 

[Mecca]

I don't even know.

He sat out against the Bulls.

In fairness, he played in the first game and we still lost.

Ps.

This is all hypothetical...but

I don't think I'd give up Kuz and Green without getting JJ and Jrue in return.

* you'd have to add even more salary*

But, I think the Pelicans are done helping the Lakers.

Ingram has been good. But, y'all sold them a lemon in Lonzo...lol
