Ball Security Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Just now, Hersh said: Those pick swaps in 2028 and 2030 are great. between the three trades since the GS trade is technically separate, they’ve collected 8 second round picks, a future first and 4 pick swaps of which only two are likely to be useful. Do pick swaps typically have protections to them? Too bad we couldn’t coax a 2029 first from GS. We’ll miss out on a better chance for King Bacot. Who, through my two minutes of scouting, is the best prospect since Wembanyama. 9 minutes ago, SuperBash said: So what picks do they actually have tonight? 8, 35, 42 and 57? Yes, that sounds right.

@DCGoldPants Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Pool is under 25. Going to get a chance at max minutes. Were probably going to buyout CP3 if they couldn't do this. Could end up moving Poole during the season if he's playing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Poole....I think he is trash. Every time I watched a Warriors game he was turning the ball over like crazy. I don't know anything about Ryan Rollins. I like the draft picks though. JP will be a double double machine (1 of them being turnovers) on 25 shots a night for the Wiz. Rollins played little for the Dubs as a Rookie (he's only 20) but is someone who could blossom for the Wiz if given playing time. He's alao coming off of a jones fracture to his foot that he had surgery on a few months ago. Edited June 22, 2023 by The Evil Genius 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 1 hour ago, Ball Security said: Wait, this is year 5 of the Elias regime and that doesn’t include the prior year when they were dumping players mid season for pennies on the dollar. They haven’t made the playoffs yet (they will in year five). Or are you saying that the rebuild is successful if they get back to a game above .500 like the Orioles did last year. The Sixers are a decade into the Process. No conference Finals appearances. Success? Last year's trades of Mancini and Lopez proved to be good. Lopez and Mancini have both cratered and the Lopez trade netted a good pitching prospect and Yennier Cano who's arguably been the most valuable reliever in the league so far this year. IMO, the rebuild was over last year after the promotion of Rutschman and were in the playoff hunt through September. In regards to the Sixers, I'd gladly take their last 10 years over anything the Wizards have done. Does that make them a success? Depends on who you ask.

The Evil Genius Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I really hope JP does well in DC. He ****ed too much about playing time (which I suspect made it easier for Kerr to dump him) and had his issues with the vets, but he's also a really good young player. His turnovers will go down if/when he learns he doesn't have to be Steph 2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually not quite sure what they are doing here. Poole, Jones, and Shamet are all reasonable and even sort of good NBA players (good to reasonable in the order listed). And that's part of why I think some people think they are getting bad value in these trades. Memphis has some questionable contracts (Kennard and Williams). It seems to me that they could have taken back some less good players and gotten more/better picks. They resign Kuzma and get a real center (Lopez is FA), with they young guys that they could make a run at the play in.

This is the last thing we want. They have been teetering on the line of maybe making the play in for 2 generations. What did that get them? A pick too late to get a real difference maker.

I hope Poole plays well and can be dealt at the deadline for more picks, I understand that. That's why I said I'm not quite sure what they are doing. Almost no matter how well Poole plays this year, I don't think you can really get anything for him. I don't think anybody is going to believe in him enough off a season much less part of a season to give up much for him when he's on a bad team. If he has 2 good years in a row and there are only 2 years left on that contract, then he starts to have some reasonable value. If you want more than a 2nd round pick or a young player that has struggled, I think you will likely need to keep Poole for 2 years.
