Makes sense... and it gets us out of 3 more years of Evan with Matthews’ 18 mill off the books. We make that deal and we have $42 mill in expiring between Matthews, Vucevic and Ross
Absolutely!! If we deal Fournier, we start Iwundu at the 2, right? Gotta keep Ross as super 6th man.
Smith/Iwundu/Isaac/Gordon/Vucevic
Augustin/Ross/Matthews or Simmons/Bamba
25-28 from the line tonight 22-24 from the line last night... getting to the line often and making 90% of your attempts sure does help to win ball games
Don’t know why we’d have to give them the best player in the trade and a young asset. It’s been noted that they don’t believe DSJ is a part of their future with how ball dominant Luka is. I think they’d go for something like Fournier and a pick for DSJ and Wes Matthews
Yeah, but you gotta make the salaries match. Only fair way would be Holiday and Davis for Mozgov, Fournier, Vucevic and Ross. Even then, I don’t know if that’s a fair trade for us. Would ask for like 3 future 1sts as well...

I think with Victor, the year with Russ definitely helped, but I also think he’s been so great in Indy because he’s playing with so much confidence. He’s the hometown hero. They were supposed to fall off a cliff when they traded PG, and instead they’re better than they were with George.
Yeah, the Dwight and Jameer draft was our last good draft and development and that was 15 years ago. Sad to think about. Oladipo was the right pick but we didn’t have patience with him or develop him right. Lee and Redick were good picks for where we were picking. Gordon was the right pick where we were picking but it’s hard to believe he wouldn’t have been developed better and faster elsewhere. The jury is still out on JI and Mo. It’s just been a miserable few years for us.
