I like CoJo, but if you have to trade him to get someone like Ibaka, you do it.(same applies to everyone on the roster except Lowry and JV, basically)twitter.com/anthonysmdoyle

CoJo is very important to the team, but so is that gaping hole at PF."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

Yeah the same rule applies to cojo as Bismack. Very very good bench players. But life goes on without very very good bench players. Nobodis ever one a championship because of their bench. If you can get a guy who's hovering close top 5 in the world at his position without compromising your core, you do.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

I wouldn't feel confident relying on Powell, and def not on Wright, to fill in behind the loss of CoJo. And yes, the hole at 4 is glaring, but I think they can fill it without giving up Joseph.

Cojo's defence is top tier, but for a guy that has the ball in his hands so much, I'd prefer if he could do more with it. Lin could make up for the loss of Ross and Cojo, at least offensively, and he isn't a bad defender. Plus you still got (hopefully) Powell and Wright who look like good defenders at their positions.

I think the point is that giving up cojo to upgrade the overall talent level is worthwhile, especially considering that you have two rooks who can do 80 percent of what he can already.
Selling the farm, getting weaker by subtraction, is not the way to keep the window open for the Lowry/Derozan core. And I also don't believe it's necessary. If the ONLY way they can get Ibaka is with CoJo and picks, then you really need to reconsider. I think Ross alone could do it; Ross+27 should do it; and Ross+9, OKC would be stupid to turn it down.Definition of Statistics: The science of producing unreliable facts from reliable figures.
