is powell better than ross ?

Debatable but I dont think so.

powell career stats:

6.6 ppg 2.0rpg 1apg 42fg% and 32% 3p in 16mpg steals 0.5pg

Last year he averaged worse than his career. 

Ross career stats: 

9.6ppg 2.6rpg 1apg 42% fg% and 37% from 3 on 25mpg. Steals 0.8pg

I'm still a Powell believer so maybe that's why. 

 

I'm also operating from a perspective that wright-?-Isaac-Gordon-Bamba is a long term playoff team as the young guys improve. Maybe that's going too far and I'm not hedging enough for the possibility that wright is just ok and not really good. 

I think we would need to hedge a little more with the salary we’d be taking on in this scenario.

I am not a Powell believer, but also not not a Powell believer. I don’t think last year necessarily reflects his actual ability, but I also think that he is most likely an ok backup type player, and that it could be detrimental to our team to have 10 million a year for 4 years locked up in an ok player.

Hey, why not? Having $10 mill tied up for an "ok" player is our MO of recent years.

Any interest in Malcom Brogdon?

I think the Bucks could use Vucevic. So a trade like Vuc for Brogdon & Henson could work. Maybe we have to include Augustin and take Dellavedova back.

Just saw the Bucks got Brook Lopez. So no more need for Vuc :-(

It also shows how little value a guy like Vooch has in the current NBA.

What kind of contract did Lopez get?

When you have a center that opposing teams can gameplan in crunch time to go at him for the win you might be crazy if you don't change that. Hi scoring is great but the layup drills and the statue defense outweigh the positives. If we get a late 2019 2nd for him I will be thrilled.

That will close the doors on the possibility of going after a max player next year(kemba). It is not a good idea.

How many people believe Kemba is a max player?

I dont think theres anyone thinking hes not a max player.

Vuc has never even been a high scorer, never scored more than 19 ppg if I remember, and anyone who trades for him is trading for his salary dump mext season not because hes gonna help their team win by being the antithesis of a modern center. Id rather have 12 mil to play with next summer than tie down to anyone we could get for him which most likely would be an average to below average player or players
