If we are trading Calderon (which I am opposed to) we have to go for Dragic or Nash. Nash would be better IMO as we might end up drafting Kabongo in the 2013 draft.

I don't see why you're even on this forum. You constantly bash other users ideas, and believe you're the most intelligent being on this planet. If you believe you're so smart, go be the GM and make some executive decisions. Dragic and Batum look like fantastic players, and if we did manage to get MKG like you want, we would definitely make the playoffs next year. Prolly have to amnesty Kleiza though.LBF wrote:

agree with most except i am the most intelligent being on the forum. best to let the admin and mods deal with the trolls. don't feed the flames. read between the lines and there is usually a point in there somewhere.
I don't see how that was offending to anyone.
Maybe, I misread, but, I'm pretty sure Matt was asking everyone their feelings on Dragic and I was expressing mine like everyone else. I even said "if you ask me."
To the guy who said I'm a troll or trolling. Consider the amount of posts I have and how long I've been on this forum. You really think I would have been on here for as long as I have if I was trolling?
I don't really care what you think about me. But, just think before you speak.
One more thing and maybe someone else can confirm this. I haven't said anything about MKG, I only found out today that stood for Michael Kidd-Gilchrist.
I honestly know nothing about that guy but his name. I don't even watch college sports for god sakes.
The only thing I've said about the draft is that the raps shouldn't draft a PF.
so who are you talking about that has more potential than batum? and a troll can live under a bridge for decades happily.
No one specifically. I was merely saying wouldn't you rather take a chance on a cheap guy you drafted than a guy you have to give a substantial amount too?
because batum is a proven player given starter's minutes. he's the type of player we desperately need, someone with perimeter shooting with the ability to drive and defender wing players well. can you name a wing with this versatility (who can play a swingman role) that can be picked up from the 5-8th pick in the draft?
yes if we were in year one of the rebuild. but i think that our position right now needs instant upgrades. so to me if it isn't a player who is coming in to start and help right away the best move might be in trade.
They're better off keeping Jose and biding their time if we're seriously talking about a guy like Dragic being a must have if the Raptors trade Jose. What's the point in dealing Jose if they're going to have to downgrade? I'm leaning more and more towards Jose stays and finding a few prospects to teach in the process.
If they do trade Jose then Hinrich is the must have if we're talking we want someone who is consistent with a proven all around game. I actually think (if the price is right) they should sign Hinrich no matter what actually...
I was interested in Hinrich previously but he looks like he ran in to the wall of old lately. I'm basing this off the Atlanta game last night and his stats since returning from injury. It will be interesting to see him again tonight.
It's one game.
I realize and said that. I followed up with reference to his stats which don't mean much. I finished with looking forward to him tonight implying looking to see if it was more than just one game. If I was not clear, I do apologize.
While his minutes are down this year compare to his career averages, his production is down too. He has been back for 41 games. I'm not sure at this point if it can be blamed on injury - that excuse is only good for 10 games around hereGiven how Felton has responded since McMillan's departure, I'd rather have Felton over Hinrich - although Felton's turnovers are ridiculous.
Kirilenko was asked about a possible return to NBA next season :
As for the possible return… I was always saying that I would love to play in the best league in the world. So, yes, in the end of the season I will consider all the offers from the NBA again. But that does not means I will definitely go.

Kirilenko is for a win now mode team.
Batum and Craig Smith Discuss future
http://www.hoopsrumors.com/nicolas-batum/
Just a couple words from Batum on his future, not really interested in Craig
Whoever told you skies the limit is looking dumb because I'm 22 and i'm moonwalking on the sun.
Just a quick thought, in a few years OKC will have to decide whether to give big money to either Serge Ibaka or James Harden. Who do you think they would give money to? I'm thinking Serge, leaving Harden open as a UFA. If we had wings like Harden and Batum, with Big Val anchoring the middle I think we'd go from a horrible team to a team fighting for 4-6 the first year we had Harden.
How true. Wonder if he had a similar pattern in the Russian league. I think not. Not to disparage the Russian peoples but he would probably get a visit from some very gruff individuals to encourage him to "get well soon" or...........
If you do analysis of Probable Salary/probable production I think you'll come to the conclusion that Hinrich is probably going to offer a lot more value than Felton will; I think Hinrich is probably looking at $3-4M/yr versus Felton at $7-8M/yr. Felton might be the biggest name free agent PG this off-season. At least one team is going to offer something stupid in my opinion given that the draft is thin on PGs.I realize and said that. I followed up with reference to his stats which don't mean much. I finished with looking forward to him tonight implying looking to see if it was more than just one game. If I was not clear, I do apologize.
While his minutes are down this year compare to his career averages, his production is down too. He has been back for 41 games. I'm not sure at this point if it can be blamed on injury - that excuse is only good for 10 games around here
