I am very close to declaring for team “just don’t trade Brunson for anyone.”

All of a sudden Brunson has become an elite one for the last 2 months. And as soon as he does we want to trade him? Doesn't really make sense. Obviously it's not that cut and dry but there are VERY few players I'd trade Brunson for and those guys are multi-time all-stars.

Brunson becoming a knock down spot up shooter radically transforms his value.
Also Luka demonstrating why he's a top 5 guy. 2 no look passes and an offensive rebound in one possession. (02-06-2022, 06:55 PM)Kammrath Wrote: I want JC so badly..... He really would add a new dimension to the PnR. If the Mavs just went a small big lineup with Collins-Maxi I wonder how good that lineup would be.

He is perfect for Luka because he allows him to have a switchable and yet elite pick and roll partner when going small AND can be effective as a PF.

WOW!
What a pass to Powell from Luka.

Luka has no case over Embiid, Jokic and Giannis. Rest comes down to health. KD is probably still better. Not sure about LeBron. Curry is still pretty good. CP3 is the point god. Not to mention Kawhi if he ever decides to play.

I don’t think we’ve talked enough about how well Powell has been playing these last 20 games or so.
He is paid like a 4th/5th starter, which is a bit too much if he’s not starting, but he’s a GREAT bench player.

I agree with Giannis and Jokic. No case over Embiid even after Friday's game? KD I agree. Curry I agree. I'd still take Luka over CP3 and Kawhi.
I like that Luka isn't afraid to guard Collins without fouling even though he's playing with 3. And then he makes me regret praising him.

I know you didn’t mean it to be one, but there will be those who interpret it that way.

Fans and media tend to be a bit quick when it comes to top 3/5/10/whatever status. Luka is definitely in the conversation and that alone is a big achievement for a player of his age.

Question, fans and media are a bit quick to categorize a player top 3/5/10 and so on, but shouldn' t we also look at not only the competiton but team construction around each player.

What a flop. That should've been challenged.
