2021 NBA Offseason

It is funny....Wiggy used to rep Cavs And Thunder on FN. But, hasn't mentioned OKC in a while. Used to be a huge RW fan.

Like they were on the right track, pre-LeBron?

Asking for a friend.

pre-lebron? which pre-lebron time?

you mean when they drafted Kyrie Irving, Tristan Thompson, and had the #1 pick to take Wiggins and then traded for Love? uhh yah. Id say it was close. Some ways that was better- some ways this rebuild has been better so far---- but they are definitely acquiring a lot of good young talent and assets to take that next step.

I liked the Thunder because I think Presti is amazing---- and I still think he is amazing. I def. root for them and I cant wait to see how the long term team is built there. Its not Presti's fault his owner was cheap and Durant is (was?) a coward.

Ayton a solid player but not sure I see that similarity.

Ayton is more of a traditional center.

Mobley - as a prospect- has a lot of Bam in him- but a lot higher offensive ceiling, and better on the perimeter. It seems to me what most people are projecting is a rich-man's Bam with more perimeter skills, playmaking, and a little more rim protection.

It lets you not have to take on bad contracts. Just picks or prospect type players

And then if he evolves into a star this year? Big mistake, trust the process

Lol I’ll have what you’re smoking

Not saying he will become AD but you watched him a lot more than us, in your opinion what big is a good comparison?

AD is a very good comparison. It's likely going to take him a minute to acclimate because he's too skinny and he's very young. But the skill set and talent can't be denied.

I don't think he'll be quite the ballhandler that AD is. But AD was a point guard before he had a growth spurt. I think he can be a better 3 point shooter. If he reaches his potential, everything else will be about the same.

If the Cavs are smart, they'll draft his brother Isaiah next year. Isaiah projects to be a role player, but he plays his ass off and loves to defend and rebound. More important, he and Isaiah play well together.

I saw Bosh and Ayton when reading his scouting report prior to getting drafted....Bosh is the comparison I see the most

24 ppg 5 apg 48% 37% 3 pg %

“lets just trade him away before we have to guys” - GM sitting on his couch

Sexton is pretty good

I guess i am remembering older Bosh more when he became more perimeter oriented. I think people are putting Mobley to much into the big man box- I understand he is 7 feet- but he has a lot of wing in him to with his handle and his athleticism and playmaking.

Warriors are the only good team that could possibly beat that offer, IMO.

Wiseman Wiggins?

 

[Shanemansj13]

Sexton is pretty good

Also, it’s not like they would be getting ridiculous offers for him. I’m sure they got some offers, I’d guess trying to lowball them and steal him away. Keep him another year or two and if he improves either trade him or sign him. If he gets worse, well you either dont pay him and let him walk or pay him less. No incentive to trade him now

Wiseman Wiggins?

Wiseman, Kuminga, Moody + salary

Don’t think they would or should trade for Lillard, just that they have a more competitive package than the other teams you mentioned.

He wasn’t even as valuable as delon Wright last year.

speaking of teams who shouldn’t have traded for a pg,

why did your boys trade for holiday?

Because they are the Wizards?

giving value for holiday was certainly a choice
