NBA TRADE TALK: TDL over

[hakeemfaan]

The goal should be to get more talent.  Defensive ability is also a talent.

I am the last person who disagrees with that. However you have to make some compromises. .  Hard nosed defensive players can be found even on 10 day contracts. We have that proof in front of us. Sabonis type skill level players OTOH are much more difficult to find. Yes, ideally you want the right mix but Sabonis is a proven scorer in this league. Right now when Luka is out, we can’t say the same thing about even KP.  We have defensive players. We need more skilled legit offensive players.
