The Kings supposedly turned down an offer by the Bucks to swap MCW for Ben McLemore.
McLemore was one of the worst players in the league last season but the Bucks are desperate for an athletic shooting guard who can knockdown an open 3 after Middleton got injured. They are starting Vaughn who is a total scrub....enter Jonathan Simmons:The Bucks, sources say, have since offered former Rookie of the Year guard Michael Carter-Williams to the Sacramento Kings in a trade proposal for Ben McLemore and will continue to probe for potential deals after the Kings rebuffed that pitch for 2013’s No. 7 overall pick.

The Bucks have a trade exception so matching salaries won't be an issue: http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=h4gytqu (Threw in JLC b/c Kidd likes lanky forwards who can't shoot:)
Eh, we have 3 point guards better than him. Plus, just imagine watching him and Kyle slug around the court at 2MPH
Kyle for Richaun Holmes. He'd easily be the best big on the bench and he's buried in Philly's big rotation. Wouldn't take much to get
or
Kyle for Kelly Oubre Jr

MCW is a cancer. He is useless without the ball in his hands.
That's why Bucks are scrubbing him and why the Kings are turning him down.
I'm not advocating for MCW to play point guard instead as a defensive stopper/slasher like Shumpert.Eh, we have 3 point guards better than him.
Just imagine watching him and Kyle slug around the court at 2MPH

Would take that deal in a heartbeat! But you wonder how MCW will play defensively with a ty role offensively. He was good against GSW because he had a relevant role offensively.
It's not like they are gambling on an expiring contract that might cost 'em Simmons.
In any case, Shumpert was basically in the same situation as MCW when he got traded to the Cavs.
Except Danny, the Spurs don't have any guard who can play D and get minutes for that. That's why small-ball teams with strong backcourts will give them many problems
Simmons for Jerami Grant is still my go-to.
Why would they trade Oubre when he's developing on schedule or trade for Kyle when they have Porter.
Simmons is 27 & doesn't provide veteran leadership, makes no sense for the Sixers.
They have Garino. He impressed on defense and he's not the kind of guy to come in making mistakes all over the place. If Garino had been in camp last season, I would have picked him over J.Simms for example who was terrible. Heck Murray looks better than J.Simms did last preseason too and he's 20.
But Pop vouched for J.Simms really hard, so I feel like he will get chances for a while. Maybe he turns it around. It would be for the best, but right now it's not looking too good.
-------------------
In fact, sue me all, but I even got the impression before preseason that Pop wanted to play Kyle more as 4, but that is unlikely right now bc doing that would require to slide J.Simms to the 3, and J.Simms has been playing so poorly that Pop has gone away from that.
Maybe eventually Bertans breaks in the rotation.
Maybe they will be interested bc they might like his slashing and passing (Pop has to showcase him a little against some scrub teams though)... I saw the articles about them asking Stauskas to watch tape on Manu Ginobili, so they might like him. One never knows, maybe he will help them tank harder...
TGY just trolling, he won't propose trades that make sense. lolWhy would they trade Oubre when he's developing on schedule or trade for Kyle when they have Porter.
Garino and Murray didn't play that much tonight. I hope we can watch more of their games in next preseason games.
Are you saying the Sixers wouldn't trade their 7th big for Kyle 2MPH Anderson?
Smh here I was thinking you were the only fan that scrub had
Garino was DNP-coach. His agent had said he was dleague bound.
I really think the 15th spot seems to be between Laprovittola and Anthony.
(Correct me anyone who did watch the game if I am wrong on that)... Lapro bc he's a solid international player who can run an offense, Murray is a talented but very raw rook. I don't think Pop has any intention of playing him unless he needs to.
Anthony is making a case for himself bc Dedmon has been that much of a scrub.
Unfortunately this leaves Garino on the outside looking in...
He'd be arguably their best two-guard. In the very least he'd be in the mix with Henderson. They're looking just cutting one of Grant or Holmes right now, so I don't think either has that much value to them.
I was talking about your suggestion to trade for Oubre lol
And again, they don't have a guard -not named Danny Green- who can play D.
Never take a guy with a hyphenated name, tbh.
Eh, we have 3 point guards better than him. Plus, just imagine watching him and Kyle slug around the court at 2MPH
Kyle + Dedmon + 1st for Noel in February.
If that's the case then Brett Brown MIGHT finally do PATFO solid.
Kyle would need to have a breakout season b/c Dedmon is a scrub & they have PLENTY of bigs/picks.
