The Ringer is a credible podcast. If things really go sour in the next two weeks that position might change but that certainly seems reasonable. lol guess we should start strapping in for Vuc jersey in the rafters. He's going to be with us forever!

I know it's frustrating not getting a deal done for a PG when we desperately need one but we aren't in a position to criticise the FO over the recent Smith Jnr stuff. We don't know to what lengths we tried to get him, from all reports they wanted Gordon, what do we do if they aren't budging from that? Pull a gun out and make them make the deal? Some people sound like they think that was a possibility, like it's up to us and us only if we make a trade.

The FO know we need a PG, they aren't stupid. They may have some things we can be frustrated about but I don't see the lack of trading for a PG so far to be one of them. I'm sure they're in contact with all of the major teams who have potential PGs available (celts, bucks, nets, mavs, lakers, 76ers etc) and there probably isn't much on. Lakers and Celtics are probably waiting on AD. Bucks wouldn't want to mess with chemistry. The others asking price are probably too high.

Nobody would really want Fournier, Grant or Simmons and Ross and Vuch's value wouldn't be that high because they are expiring. We have probably put a high price on Ross and Vuch because FO knows they are our only ticket to the playoffs, other teams are probably still low balling us for them because they think we will budge and give them away cheaply.

That's all well and good, but they still only have a 14% chance at the #1 pick.

He won’t play a game for them, he’s being released and will become an FA.

Since may of 2017 when Hammond was hired as GM, This has been the magic transactions: 

2017 signed Afflalo and Birch

          Signed Iwundu

2018 Traded C Bismack Biyombo and second-round draft picks in 2019 and 2020 to Charlotte, who sent G Julyan Stone to Chicago and C Timofey Mozgov to Orlando. Chicago sent G Jerian Grant to Orlando

          Signed Briscoe and Bamba

2019: ........ 

THAT IS IT!

If no moves by the trade deadline, in May it will be 2 years in charge. Grade?

Drafting Isaac and Bamba have been the big moves by our front office. Also dumping EP was kind of a big move. The elephant in the room is the lack of a solution to perhaps the most important position in the game.

ohh this is not about drafting and letting players go. Is about addition via free agency and trades.
