Knicks should get Jimmer. Jimmer in the Garden

[Cool Dr. Money]

The set up of just the player faces has me a bunch of trash for sale this year.

 

[GoldenGlove]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! We need Ariza.

Plus Deng is an injury risk at this point. His achilles is hurting, and his wrist probably still hasn't fully healed from the last 2 seasons when he refused to get surgery on it.

 

[GoldenGlove]

He's thinking he's gonna lose his job if he fukks it up lol

He out of there anyway at the end of this year more than likely.

Trading Smith for a salary dump is a get out of jail free card, dude is gonna lose his job for keeping Smith when they miss the playoffs regardless. The Cavs are gonna take the Hawks spot, Pistons will continue to flounder with or without Smith, but at least moving him improves their future.

You have no idea what you're talking about, and please don't bring up data and numbers when your entire post history is littered with ignoring data. The new CBA is going to make 2nd rounders very valuable, they are non guaranteed contracts, and the chance of finding a Goran Dragic, DeAndre Jordan or Nikola Pekovic in the 2nd round is worth the risk, considering you can just cut the player in question if they don't pan out.


And Hawes is due for a contract, which is a major reason why the Sixers dumped him.

so you'd go the needle in the haystack route than getting a sure thing?

I agree that finding the next Chandler Parsons is enticing but the chances are 1 in 30. Since the rest of the moron GMs are now gonna start overvaluing 2nd rounders, I'd trade every last one of them for proven commodities.

I'm not saying overpay, but I'd trade 2nd rounders for players I think could be productive role players at reasonable prices.

I would love to be an NBA GM...the trade deadline, scouting, and the draft must be fun as hell to participate in.

 

[red222]

Bulls aren't adding salary period breh



But that's kind of telling how low Jimmer's stock is if nobody's willing to give up that for him.

I know breh but we need his skillset

 

[Eddie Jordan]

I don't wanna see Ariza go

Yes, I'd go for the needle in the haystack over keeping Hawes and having to pay him $36 million over 4 years because his production on a bad team dictates that's what he's worth.

what hinkie is doing is smart. the sixers gonna own the draft

Ariza is having his best season and we're about to trade him.

I wouldn't say all that, cause if you fukk up you're fired and depending on how bad you fukk up you might not be able to get another GM job again.
