His knees must be like Dirk´s ankles, if that is only a severe hyper extension. How ironic would that be? He's the pick Dallas threw in for Luka.

The focus should be on improving the starting rotation, primarily giving Luka some help and ideally providing some defense. Lauren does not provide either. Cause Markkanen is a young available player capable of peaking at 20/10 on great shooting? Have you watched these play-offs? Offense wins championship. First we fix that side, then we focus on team defense and individual defenders. Upgrade Maxi to Markkanen, will probably cost us around $7-8M in additional capspace and we can probably extract a small asset for Kleber. Pretty sure teams like the Bucks, Sixers, Lakers, who lack some cost-efficient shooting would give up a small asset for Kleber. Who s the 3rd best PF/C on the Sixers, if we even count Tobias Harris as a PF? Mike Scott? Korkmaz/Milton for Kleber? Though the old MBT would probably do D. Green instead.

We kind of have to thank Trae Young to be this good to be honest. Travis Schlenk is obviously a great GM and talent evaluator. If he wasn´t that convinced by Young, he probably takes Luka and we are looking at the DSJ/WCJ era.

His defensive on/off don´t seem to suggest so. Over his whole career it´s virtually +/- 0. What stands out is that the Bulls five-man line-ups did really well, as long as Coby White and Zach Lavine didn´t play together. Those two were a complete trainwreck together. So I´d argue Markkanen was not the problem, but rather the backcourt combination of White/Lavine. I think Markkanen next to a defensive center and with a reasonable SG defender can easily work. In a way Ball and Markkanen would seem to fit really great together. Can we pull that off? RE: AROUND the NBA: McCollum trade "probable" | Lillard unhappy - Hypermav - 06-29-2021 Hawks are better without A Hole on defense.

Much less imo. His stock has plummeted these last 2 seasons. Unless there's a bidding war I think Markkanen can be had for as little as 12-15mm RE: AROUND the NBA: McCollum trade "probable" | Lillard unhappy - ClutchDirk - 06-29-2021 https://youtu.be/PUOTZFDNcac RE: AROUND the NBA: McCollum trade "probable" | Lillard unhappy - Mavs2021 - 06-29-2021 (06-29-2021, 10:27 PM)SleepingHero Wrote: Much less imo.

You need to be aggressive right out of the gate, while they still pursue their capspace ideas. 84/4 gets it done.

RE: AROUND the NBA: McCollum trade "probable" | Lillard unhappy - SleepingHero - 06-29-2021 Goes to show any year can be THE year and teams shouldn't hold anything back. Hawks had a perfect run with perfect injuries helping them out. Lets see if they can close out the Giannis-less Bucks.
