Phoenix Looking at Young for Trade

[offset formation]

For s sake. I heard Ayers went 5-7 in the g-league version of Ice Cube’s league. He is the absolute protege of the new era of basketball. KD like even but once again PATFO fumbled the ball worse than Ayres himself. 5-7 and a GAME WINNER!!! Some of ya’ll probably still texting the girl who gave you a phone number 19 years ago.

ok king, go off. lol.

Is he better than Eubanks, yes or no?

Now take your medicine.

[Leetonidas]

there may be zero reason to have taken a center back in the demar trade had we just kept chimeze. he is a starting center on a team with a better record than ours after all.

If we trotted out some rotation of Poeltl, Chimeze, and Jock, we might have a complete center amalgamation.

You're kidding right

Oh man some ppl are so simple they don’t deserve to be medicated.

[buttsR4rebounding]

Where are you getting your numbers? Thad has averaged more than 1.3 3ptFGA per game ten times in his career. His highest number of 3ptFGA per game came in the '13-'14 season, where he took 3.7 per game. Next was the '19-'20 season, where he took 3.5 3ptFGA per game. After that, there are eight other seasons where he had at least 1.4 attempts per game. Also, he's 33... not 35. He doesn't turn 34 until June 21st-- 6 months from now.

But other than that you agree, don't you?

[MultiTroll]

Why exactly could Young not play vs Detroit, the New Years Day Farce?

that chimeze is better than Eubanks? no, no I'm not.

[FutureMan]

Hey, little boy, how ya doing? Lol

Are you agreeing with Dejounte that Thad CAN’T shoot 3s? That’s what he wrote. You think that, too, do you?

14 seasons. 33%. Not good enough in my eyes at least. Maybe your standards are lower though so that could be the issue.

[Joseph Kony]

that chimeze is better than Eubanks? no, no I'm not.

Not only is it hilarious to pine for Metu as the third C but your take is flat out wrong, and I'm a Eubanks hater are you basing this off of metu playing hard in 1 game vs SA then hitting a wide open game winner recently or what?

let's see...

Per 36:

Metu: 14/10/1bpg 40fg%
Drew: 14/12/2pg 50fg%

PER:

Metu: 12.8
Drew: 15.4

WS:

Metu: 0.6
Drew: 0.9

ORTG:

Metu: 99
Drew: 106

DRTG:

Metu: 109
Drew: 105

TS%:

Metu: .489
Drew: .504




Drew edges his out in pretty much every relevant category

They're both trash players. arguing about whether it would be better the Spurs have one scrub over the other is completely pointless

I'm basing it off the fact he's a more fluid athlete with a much more fluid jumpshot. Drew gets lots of buckets on PnR with the Spurs. If you watch the Kings ever, you'll see that Chimeze is asked to play more FT line extended and they do far fewer PnRs with him. He'd have better numbers in the Spurs system and you know that. Also, he has been starting lately and playing crunch time for them so Alvin Gentry seems to find his game to be worthy of exploring.

My point isn't in arguing for Chimeze necessarily, it's much moreso arguing that our trade to Chicago unnecessarily and idiotically netted us a center that's riding the bench like either Metu could, or that Eubanks currently does. So we have a disgruntled bench player whom they have now completely trashed his value. If you were going to get anything approaching value he needed to be moved or played. We've done neither. Now we just have a depreciating asset and poor PR with future free agents.

Spurs would quite demonstrably have been better off with Metu.

Yay PATFO!

Please tell me you get that. This isn't hard.

[John B]

You know it’s gotten so low in ST when posters are arguing Metu over Ewwbanks

[Rocalcio]

Smith is getting minutes and making the most of it, we need to stop dreaming about getting a pick with him.

imo the pick ( if there is a pick) is or was about saric contract. You will not take Smith with his fa status plus the contract of an injured saric for nothing....

[KingKev]

You have too much pride to ride the short bus but judging by your posts you should give it a try. They have short buses with german badges now… great for your kind. Like real fancy .

Our trade with Chicago leased cap space that would have other gone unused. We received a first round pick and a possible trade chip in Thad. I don’t agree with much of what PATFO does these days but do you even understand anything I just wrote?

Im arguing the trade that netted us a bench center was laughable given we could have had that with Metu.

We didnt get a first for Thad. We got a first for Demar who is more than paying them back. We got a second for taking Thad. And he could and should have immediately been rolled for another second (or first if you listen to ST), rather than having a very expensive bench accessory. PATFO could and should have requested a different trade asset than Thad if their plans were to keep and bench him, making him the 4th center off the bench.

If you don't get that, i pity you.

Of all the terrible things the front office has done the past few years, the Chicago trade is not one of them. However, I would not be surprised if they are unable to get any assets in exchange for Thad. They’ve been that incompetent.

So I'm a nazi? Thats the worst and most pathetic effort of invoking Godwin's law in the history of human communication. Truly, I pity you.

[Kevin]

Packaging Thad with the Pistons pick and moving up into the mid to late first might make sense for a contender. Add a useful bench big for a modest move down while still having a decent pick come draft day.


I'd almost rather do that than acquiring a 2023 protected second pick that will fall at like the 50th pick.

[Kevin]

Also a second round pick swap with the Cavs makes a lot of sense as well. Cleveland controls the Rocket's second rounder so maybe the Spurs package Thad with Lakers second in exchange for the Houston second. That would be about a a 12 pick move up in the second round.

[KingKev]

Goose egged tonight. Buyout imminent.

[the golden era]

Anyone watch Byombo the last two games. Holy what a revelation. No way they trade for Thad now.

[gambit1990]

Switching the 12th man for another 12th man is just stupid. I agree Eubanks probably isn’t NBA talent but he is hardly the problem.

i was right about biyombo. he's not a 12th man.

So what you're saying is what another awesome PATFO move, amiright?

Like I said above, and which you now seem to be agreeing with, trading for and keeping Thad was a tremendous blunder if we end up buying him out. He should have been rolled for another 2nd and washed our hands of him. Now they're gonna most likely have to negotiate a buyout or keep paying a 14 yr vet 14.5 MILLION to be your 4th center.

Lmao, PATFO deserves no respect for their recent failures but a few of you guys seem willing to slob their knob at all costs.
