Dion Waiters ?

Dion Waiters is a scrub. You can put a scrub out there who has the same amount of minutes he has and shoot better than Waiters...

He has some SJax in him, punching Kyrie and getting in Thompson's face, Pop is afraid of that kind of player...

Green + possibility to switch first round picks with them would be intriguing like Chinook said but you'd need a Garnett in the locker room to keep him in check... Play him based on his effort on D...

I'm sure the only thing Pop is afraid of with "that kind of player" is their jump shot.

It's one thing to be supremely talented, but a head, like Cousins. It's another thing to be an absolute scrub like Waiters, and trying to throw your weight around.

LOL at the notion that Pop is scared of his own players. Pop used to be an active CIA operative. He's not scared of anything.

I agree, there's no way to know he'll ever be good. Just like in football, sometimes draft picks just aren't that good and you can tell by year 2 (T Richardson). Heck, Kendall Marshall is in the D League now and Austin Rivers is only hanging on because of his famous dad.

Given the market for Derrick Williams (which netted an overpaid, one dimensional defensive stopper) may mean the asking price won't be too crazy.




If you don't like his game, then why screw with a good thing? If the Spurs stunk and Cavs were looking to contend, that's a completely different story.

assets.

A slower/ tier OJ Mayo imho. Ain't Mayo also a top4 pick something? Waiters is just a scrub who struggles to secure himself a starting spot even on a mediocre team. It wouldn't be a bad deal if he could be had for nothing (like Beasley to Miami), but if you had to give up any valuable assets in the forms of young prospects and picks, you would later regret it and think of it as even worse a deal than the Jefferson trade tbh.
