I suppose so? So we couldn't not sign Ant & Nurk or pull a sign and trade?
You wouldnt have Ant but you could have Dame & Levine. You could still have one of the picks and maybe trade Hart & some for a position of need.
There would need to be some trades/sign and trades. Plus we could have two picks as assets.
Probably so...
Take a look at their salaries....
They have 3 other players making big bucks and their center has one more year. Just thought with three guards they may sign and trade Z or ?
Paolo's question marks are a joke. Kid is a stud. He is #1 for me for our team.
Yeah, I can't decide if I like him or Jabari better. Jabari has a better outside shot and a motor that doesn't stop. He's also probably the more explosive athlete but he doesn't have the level of ball handling that Paolo does or the passing ability. He's also not as strong, Paolo is a beast. Those are the only two guys I really want though, if we are going to be building around Dame to get to a contending level right away. I think that Chet and Jaden will have immediate game changing impacts on the teams they go to. Ivey will be an impact player regardless of who he's surrounded by unless he's buried on a bench behind guys like Dame, Ant and Hart. Chet needs specific personnel around him or the speed of the NBA game will really hurt him on defense. We don't have that personnel. The rest of the guys in this draft don't seem like instant difference makers and we just don't have the time to develop guys. So if we're not in position to get Jabari or Paolo, I think we have to find the most impactful player possible in a trade.
Vulcan let Cronin hire/fire staff members throughout the front office. I think he's here as GM for the long haul. We might do a re-org and put someone else above him as a PoBO for further oversight but they aren't going to let Cronin make staffing decisions only to let him go in the summer.
That makes sense. I guess the only reason that they'd do that is if one of the candidates that they interview in this process convinces them that this front office that has been mostly intact for a decade has fucked up every decision that wasn't directly related to Dame and may have even mishandled him by letting him have too much say in what they did. Then they might just clean house, keeping a new hire or two and maybe one other person for continuity or not caring about continuity at all.
And he’s made that pretty clear.
I can’t wait personally until we trade pick/picks who later become stars in their early 20’s who we would have control over to add to young players Ant, Nassir, Watford, and instead get Jerami Grant and old Draymond Green so we can get beat by the Suns and Nuggets until Damian retires. Fun stuff.
yeah, I would not trade the pick and some for JG.
