the only basketball pod I listen to is pod don’t lie, and that’s only when I have nothing else to listen to

but if Morey turned down 4FRP then it actually makes me believe that he must know what he’s doing because you’d be stupid to reject that otherwise.

but also yeah probably fake because all reports are fake.

if that is the actual rumor, the source of it is 100% morey himself trying to get someone else to up their offer

He would be a marginal upgrade over curry for like 100 million more dollars

the team needs size in the back court more importantly . they are getting killed on long rebounds as other teams guards just jump over curry and maxey

lonzo would have been ideal !! alas

i think the cj trade was for jrue holiday, if we're relaying info from the other thread.

part of the problem with first round picks is that presumably the blazers will continue to be barely in the playoff hunt so the picks are all in the 15-20 range. and morey probably believes you cannot get a star player in that range.

what they need is a point guard who's like 6'11" or something, alas such a player does not exist

its really interesting to see devin booker turn into a passable defender simply thru learning positioning and using his big size. philly should try and trade for tyler herro.

morey only turned down cj because he was dumb enough to think that he could strong arm simmons into playing and up his trade value. whoops. the stats nerd doesn't understand human relationships

cj is like the third best player on a championship team and moreys vision of ben simmons is like giannis with handles. the trade value is already there even if you dont like it, and i think it'd take more like 10-15 first round picks and even then i'm not so sure given how the draft works and how the picks would be spread out temporally.
