  1. 3-0 to start the season! If we take care of business we can feasibly go 8-0. Our biggest test is vs Philly, who we always seem to play well.
  2. Prediction time: We trade Vucevic for Gobert this summer (not straight up probably, but we will find a deal there). It makes sense, as he probably won't be a member of the Jazz for much longer after this whole debacle. He and Evan are best friends. Evan either opts in or he works out a 4 year deal with the team. Bamba and AG and picks are going to be on the block for an upgrade at SF (unsure who it will be). Fultz/MCW Evan/Ross ?/Iwundu Isaac/Aminu Gobert/Birch (or a different backup C)
  3. I think RJ Hampton is our guy if he falls to our range. A combo guard with insane upside who could slip on draft night due to playing in Australia and not having an NCAA tournament sample size to go off of. I'm also really intrigued by Aleksej Pokusevski. He's a legit 7 footer with guard skills who can protect the rim, guard multiple positions, and catch and shoot. He has insane upside...
  4. We need to monitor Harden's availability this summer and next summer. If the Rockets flame out early, Morey is gonna get fired and Westbrook/Harden could possibly get traded to begin the rebuild since their value will still be there.
  5. Is it a coincidence that Bamba has his worst game when DJ returns to the lineup?
  6. Because our backup PF was a dude whos currently not in the league
  7. The Aminu signing was fine, its not like we could see into the future his injuries...
  8. Can't wait for the Woj bomb that says we're getting Kidd-Gilchrist
  9. Bridges is a fantastic young player, he's an absolute monster on D and on a rookie deal. They'd also be giving away their first which will be mid-lottery. Saric is also a good player. I doubt they trade two great assets and a solid player in Saric for AG, even if it means they get off Johnson's contract
  10. Suns say no. They give up way too much
  11. I really dont know who would give Vucevic more than what we paid him
  12. Idk if MN would say yes to just Ag so I threw it in to sweeten the deal a little. Then again, they're desperate so maybe they will do AG straight up
  13. AG and the Lakers 2nd for RoCo and Culver who says no?
  14. Yeah thats my point, we drafted Chuma so we could trade our 2020 pick because of how weak of a draft it is and they wanted Chuma to be the rookie for that year. I just said AG because I think Chuma will eventually win the starting F role next to Isaac, and we have the depth to trade AG when everyone's healthy. We signed Aminu in case of an AG trade as well as for F depth.
  15. Conspiracy theory time: We drafted Chuma (in addition to his skill set that we value) because of the fact that he's going to be out for the year, and I think this is what was the tiebreaker between him and other guys on our draft board. I think WeltHam was planning on drafting/redshirting Chuma so he would be our rookie in a relatively weak 2020 NBA draft. I also think they were planning on trading our 2020 first in a package with AG on draft night, to try to either move up or trade for a good proven player. They saw that the 2020 draft was going to be weak and so they decided to punt on that draft and bring a redshirted guy from 2019 in instead. This would allow them to trade our 2020 first since I'm not entirely convinced they love bringing in two rookies in the same year on a team with playoff aspirations. Maybe they're trying to stockpile on picks in future drafts where high school prospects will be allowed to enter? Maybe they wanted to package our 2020 first and AG for a proven star? What do you guys think?
  16. Not quite sure how to embed this tweet but its a take I found interesting. What do you guys think?
  17. Wonder if Bamba is smelling some blood in the water with Vucevic's recent play?
  18. I would do this trade 100%, I trust our staff more than Minnesota's and no championship team becomes a championship team without taking risks. Although this risk isn't that bad since it would at the very least get us off of Vooch's contract
  19. For some reason I see a lot of Magic fans wanting to trade for DSJ but I dont get why, hes legitmately bad
  20. What do you mean cash in Coby White? He isnt gonna get traded. I could see Lauri maybe getting moved tho
  21. What would a trade for Myles Turner look like? I think he would be a great fit here to replace Vooch
  22. 9 mins ago – via Kevin O'Connor @ The Ringer The Orlando Magic are persistent on keeping EuroBall alive and well in Orlando even though the youth on the roster needs to go in a different direction. Look for Orlando to be rumored in a lot of deals but ultimately to shy to do anything and bring back Fournier on a 80M 4 year deal. If they’re going to do this, I want a new FO ASAP. I hope this is just a way to increase Evan's trade value. I will be thoroughly disappointed if we re-sign Evan....
  23. Call me crazy (and this is a long term trade, not something I expect to happen this season or maybe even next), but i think we can make a move for Embiid if the Sixers continue to struggle in the playoffs. Vucevic would be a more ideal fit next to Ben Simmons, and we have movable assets in addition. Think if it like the DeMar-Kawhi trade. (Theoretically), would say no to Embiid and filler for Vucevic, AG, Chuma, two first round picks, and the Lakers 2nd this year? Obviosuly we cant trade the Lakers 2nd if the trade happens in 2021 but we can modify our package.
