Seems like a real challenge to get there though. dude will be a star. Just bring his mama to ATL. That should be the objective.

With JJ on the roster, I'd rather have him out there than OO. JJ rebounds and playmakes from the PF position. Edit: It has nothing to do with being a JC advocate. He's the better player out of all three. I just want to keep the better player on the roster. JJ is a 3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love to add Ayton or Gobert, etc to JC rather than deal him. Definitely not excited about dealing him for a draft pick and for something like the 7th pick that feels like hoping you draft a guy who turns out o be as good as he already is (because the highest ceiling guys are already gone) and we don’t seem like we are at the stage where targeting rookies makes sense. lets keep going with this... His suggested replacements have been Julius Randle, Jeremy Grant, Okungwu, Jalen Johnson. Randle and Grant's contracts are basically the same so what do those guys do better than JC? What kind of production could you hope to get out of OO and JJ at that position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing definitive, especially not draft measurables.... are you kidding??? (You may need to ask somebody about those).. So you jumping out there as if you've found the lost ark par for the course.. Just UOT... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By Thursday.. this thread will be separated into 54 different threads... My prediction for new thread titles: 1. Why hasn't JC been traded yet? 2. Trae vs. Luka year 2. 3. Who will lead his team to the championship first Trae or Luka? 4. Dyson Daniels Is a better defensive player than JC. 5. Ayton vs. Gobert vs. KAT. 6. DeLo vs. Delon. 7. JC is being traded because of PEDs.. 8. We overpaid Kev. 9. Bogi's knee vs. Microfracture. 10. Hunter vs. Marvin Williams. 11. Josh Smith is the best PF to ever play in Atlanta. 12. Milsap was better than Josh Smith. 13. Hunter vs. JChillz. 14. Why rebounds don't matter in the NBA. 15. The Hardcap, the LT, and the Apron.... Do me a favor and google Bam Adebayo's Wingspan... Its 7'3 like I said.. Measuring 6'10 with a 7'3 wingspan, Adebayo i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of teams want SGA like teams wanted Booker years ago. Not happening. SGA is a building block piece for OKC. I was half kidding on SGA. But realistically, it does seem like we’re in search of cap relief in a JC trade. I think he’ll either be traded in the draft to move up into the top 7, or for a promising young player on a rookie contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why??? Because you want to be right? You want to be heard? You want your opinion respected? I don't know.. but for whatever reason, it was UOT. The funny thing is that the article I linked you was an article discussing how OO could be the next Bam... Thought you would read it, take the hint and Shut the Front door.. but NO.... You still want to be right. They discussed playing styles in that article.. did you take the time to inform yourself... NO... You still want to argue numbers.

I like JJ a lot and wanted him to play last year (limited minutes) but he is a low floor rotation player next year that you hope to develop and who had the upside to be much better than that (but you can’t count on it which is why the floor is low). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h4wkfan Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Bam is 6’ 9.75” in shoes with a 7’2.75” wingspan per Nba combine measurements - which are accurate. OO Is 6’9” with shoes and 7’1” wingspan based on everything I can find. can y’all stop now? @terrellhad the right measurements for bam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what's the motivations behind the John Collins trade machine you think?..Other than the obvious of course that @NBASupes has been trying to get rid of him for years and he is our primary rumor source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That inclination for fans gets kicked into overdrive when it is repeatedly reported that JC is on the trade block. I can’t really speculate why so many different media outlets have reported it. The two most likely scenarios are that there is truth to the rumor (where there is smoke…) and guys copying each others content for clicks (monkey see, monkey do). But it is definitely out there regardless of the reason which will tend to drive more speculation among Squawkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
