Facts

 

[Shanemansj13]

Someone is about to be released from the frozen tundra.

Yep wonder who forks it up. BKN has a ton of players to include but not a lot of picks. I would think they make the most sense but I could see some team coming out of the woodworks.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Is Rob going to give up those picks is the only question

He should

 

[thunderc]

I

I agree with LeGoat

I don’t, you are both entitled to your opinion though.

Fuck, if it gets rid of Russ, yes please

 

[Stakesarehigh]

I don't think Russ is the big issue this year though.

But yea if you can get that depth for Russ and some picks you do it.

Yeah with the lack of depth that would be a nice upgrade. Russ is better than Conley and can spell Lebron when he needs minutes but Conley is a better fit then you get two more guys, one that can create his own shot and one young stud. Would be a good pickup

Most likely just one first rounder.

Pelinka has already said the only way they get rid of both is if it makes them a contender.

And while this is a great deal. It doesn’t quite make them contenders

I'd agree with one first here.

Russ is an expiring so it suits Utah also.

From what i've heard, he will most likely get bought out in that case.

Get Russ and a first for those guys.

Then try to get a shooter for another first and maybe a young guy like Max Christie (although I would prefer the Lakers to keep him)

 

[shopson67]

To the Lakers for a 2nd rounder and a crisp high-five?

I'll throw in Bev and Bryant...

If Utah is saying they discussed 2 1sts, Rob probably offered 1.

Conley is a better floor spacer and defender and is steady. Basically everything Russ isn't. I'd love to add Vanderbilt, but that would prompt another pick for sure. Maybe Alexander-Walker?

 

[shopson67]

Magic in top 5

Not going to argue with that, my fave of all time....

 

[shopson67]

Someone is about to be released from the frozen tundra.

Also, OG ruled out in advance for tomorrow's game.

Probably why there is a hold up.

And I kinda agree with Pelinka

I'd suspect

Russ isnt that much better....considering Conley's ability to hit the 3. And better at limiting turnovers.
