as JFly said earlier. i think most everyone here is overrating what he's actually worth.


He's worth as much as the most interested team will pay, which might be quite a lot. Not everyone is focused on a rim-protecting, athletic center.

I honestly think that Jah will be a multiple time all-star, and eventually be in the top 20 players in the NBA during his prime. I really don't want him traded. He's driven to be GREAT offensively, and I think he'll be at least average defensively. I know I'm sort of on an island about this, but trading him really scares me, especially if it's to Boston.

It seems every day Okafor's value drops on here, the guy has elite offensive skills, some team will pay through the nose for those skills.

Let's not pretend that every team has a Hinkie at the helm who gets the max for every asset they have. There's a few incredibly stupid teams out there, lest we forget the haul we got from the Kings for taking on some salary.

as long as they do their due diligence in assessing his market value, that's a satisfying amount of investigative work for Bryan and his Dick Tracy collars

Grandy Glaze, once a UNLV commit then went to St. Louis then GCU.

It will be as thorough as the GM hiring process was.

It only takes one team. MCW wasn't worth the Lakers pick, but we still got it.

Not everyone is capable of pulling off heists like the Turner and Hawes trades.

We drafted Jerami Grant and Vasilije Micic from the Hawes deal. We got flotsam for the Turner deal that let us make the Kings deal. They 'look' bad to get 2nd rounders back, but the stuff adds up in the aggregate. Trading Turner also freed up shots and minutes to look at other guys.

I'd say those were fine.

Is this actually a thing? Or are you just trying to get the discourse up and and running again?

If I had my druthers, I'd keep Nik over one of the late 1sts.

nothing is actually a thing. all the gms players and agents are just jostling for position. you gotta catch a team who's in a spicy mood on draft night and then do the deal in a heightened state of emotion

just catching up on the thread, saw something or other about something or other similar to that, typing what ever hops into my mind and dances around. at the very least it's more interesting than 702 updating us every 2 days about his feelings about the thread. that is, that is.... seriously fucked up shit.
