gAmE.oVeR 4 Report post Posted December 27, 2016 Lmao So basically tank We should tank. You all are crazy for wanting to stay in 8-10th seed purgatory. Gotta try to continue to grow as a young team and get get offense. It's why a tanking team like Philly will be significantly better than us in the long haul.

Gotta try to continue to grow as a young team and get get offense. It's why a tanking team like Philly will be significantly better than us in the long haul. trading for lavine doesn't really help us tank. it makes us marginally worse and sets us up for no cap space in 2018-2019. If you're going to tank you commit to it. we have 15 wins. a payton-lavine-fournier-gordon-biyombo team isn't a 5-44 type of team. it's a 17-32 type of team. 32 wins isn't a good tank. we made our choice when we traded oladipo for Ibaka. we need to see it through to whatever crappy end.

Magicman28 295 Report post Posted December 27, 2016 Can we just convince OKC to trade Dipo back to us for Fournier? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted December 27, 2016 Can we just convince OKC to trade Dipo back to us for Fournier? nope. he's poison pilled. though it would work if we convince a third team to take something like 9 million in contracts away from okc. something like this http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=z6npesl (imagine biyombo is Fournier) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's crazy because we could use a player like him but we needed a 4 like Ibaka. Wonder if we can do a three team with Denver and Toronto where we get Norman Powell?

Wonder if we can do a three team with Denver and Toronto where we get Norman Powell? ok so Toronto needs PF depth. Maybe they trade Powell because he's the third string SG. They're 6 million away from the tax figure out how to get Toronto a PF that doesn't put them into the tax from another team that would also want something we have.

Magicman28 295 Report post Posted December 27, 2016 http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=jbn684x ? I was trying to find a way Toronto could get Faried and we get Powell and Nuric. Thought about Ross but Powell is the better defender. I gave up though after not being able to get the salaries right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
