Need another wing.

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
If we can not get Kofus I think Prince should be looked at if nothing else is there. However who do I think we will end up getting.. Richard Jefferson. I can just taste this because well RCF.
 
Why would Guard heavy Phoenix want Dion?

Saw it mentioned on Twitter but haven't seen it on the boards yet (just got in this morning though)...Jamal Crawford. Would be a great 2 on this team, another ball handler as well.
 
Lol, I'm looking at the nba drafts, especially the 2011 draft..
we could have drafted Kyrie and Klay, Kawhi, Vucevic..
Not even talking about Markieff Morris, Tobias Harris and Jonas.

2012 draft I would have picked Lillard and put either him or Irving at the SG.
2013 draft everyone is better than Bennet.

Good Choices indeed.
 
Why did we give up Felix for the TPE? So we could get a lengthy wing that could guard multiple positions, not need the ball in his hands, and hit the 3? Dumb dumb dumb

Maybe they decided he would never be able to hit the 3 in the NBA, but Felix looked like an NBA defender to me who was quick and long. We could really use him.

And if my Aunt had a dick, she would be my Uncle.

What is the point of doing this? If we draft differently, our record is different, every draft after is different, free agency is different, etc.

What if Gloria wasnt a crack whore and didnt get pregnant at 16 and have Lebron?

She would have had Delonte James :(
the point was my fear of the franchise decisions.
I would have tanked and picked Willie Cauley-Stein in the upcoming draft to build the superteam!
Nah I mean, I just don't know why the Cavs gave the 1st round Miami pick.

Maybe because of your above post. The draft is a crapshoot. You don't know what your getting. None of the experts (even if they deny it) thought bennett would struggle this much. No one thought Leonard would play as well as he has. No one thought Klay would become such a great defender.

Even this past draft which was supposed to have super stars has been a slight disappointment (I now their rookies.) in the NBA when you have lebron you go for the sure thing. Period.

What do you guys think of R.J Hunter?
He reminds me of Curry as a sg.
I see alot of potential and I think he could fit the team well when he bulks up

The hindsight shit when talking about drafts and sports in general pisses me off to no end and you don't even know lol.


It's like picking a fight with a baby. You know you can't lose so why do it? How is it pleasing you?

All any team can do is scout study and pick what they need. Imo looking at how the last 3 drafts have played out ALOT of teams picked wrong. But we aren't one of them.

Yeah, we could have built the greatest roster ever but we also know that with different picks, we may not have wound up with the number one pick to take Wiggins.

In 2013, we picked Karasev when we could have had Dieng or even better, Rudy Gobert who is a year away from being a true difference maker in this league. Of course, center wasn't a need then. We could have picked Roberson who isn't anything on offenses but has become an elite perimeter defender. Hindsight, hindsight, damn hindsight. It's so easy no but wasn't then.
 
Apparently crowned1's idea to improve the wing is to acquire a time machine...

If the Cavs can flip Dion for an usable wing they need to do it, since Dion is the reason we need that wing in the 1st place. Not sure if Tucker is that guy but he has been the most intriguing name anyone has thrown out so far.
 
What about Jeff Green -- now that Boston is playing for the lottery? He's more of a SF/PF type, but he's a better shooter than Marion, so probably fits the starting lineup better. He's also a good scorer that you could bring in off the bench.

Waiters + Haywood for Green works contract wise.

Using Haywood's contract before this summer is a waste of a huge asset.

The only wing in the top 80 of defensive ESPN RAPM who seems gettable is Dudley. Every other guy are on playoff teams whom I consider unlikely to move a good perimeter defender. He's been hitting the 3 at a good clip as well. I have concerns about Dudley on a good team based on what happened to him LAC last year but beggars can't be choosers.

Dudley for the trade exemption plus second rounders and also Dudley for Waiters works. Since we're going for a title and our lack of bench scoring I'd try to push hard for option #1 (Milwaukee has a very good history of drafting talent in the second round so those picks may be more valuable to them then other team). The Bucks have done well this year but they've lost Parker so are more likely to consider a salary dump now I'd imagine
