All I'm saying is that should be looking at every position to potentially make an upgrade. The Luka + Kyrie partnership finally started bearing fruit when the Mavs upgraded the players around them. We could possibly see similar benefits if we upgrade from our weakest links which imo are Hunter and Capela. i'm still hoping for a trade with all three of those players mentioned. (djm, cc, and hunt). but it's probably wishful thinking that they'll all be included in any trade worth a damn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Popular Post AHF Posted June 19 Author Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted June 19 3 hours ago, KB21 said: Givony says the Hawks are working Risacher out tomorrow in Atlanta. He says they worked out Clingan, and he knocked it out of the park. He says that Quin Snyder put Clingan through an intense film session, and that Clingan shot the three well in the workout and also showed ability when put through short roll drills. Two quick comments: How can you take a wing at 1 who is a disaster with his athleticism? Seeing 5th percentile stuff from him really limits his potential. I can’t justify a wing as the top pick when he tests worse than Edey on athletic measures. (Relative to others at the position.) Who cares how Clingan shoots against chairs and 6’0’’ managers in workouts? Does anyone believe that is more predictive than his free throw shooting? What is his excuse for why he can’t shoot from the line in games? (The reasons to take him have nothing to do with his shooting.) 8 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told myself to just protect my peace until the draft actually happens. There’s a lot of info going around and most of it is uninspiring. This offseason is going to be painful until a move is finally made. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s the definition of average. The top three prospects in this draft overall to me are Alex Sarr, Donovan Clingan, and Reed Sheppard. My 4th guy is Stephon Castle. With Risacher, I don’t see what makes him a better prospect than Tidjane Salaun or Cody Williams. Those three should be a lot closer together in the ratings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't been very good in Chicago either... Fans are ready to move on.... "Even when he's not being disgustingly inefficient, his defense and complete lack of effort on the floor hurts us far more than his 15 points a night benefits us. He's a complete net negative on the floor and we'd be so much better with even just an average center taking his minutes. Thinking about the fact that we owe him another 40mil over the next two years makes me sick, he makes it so hard to watch our games and I don't think I've ever had such a complete and utter hatred for a bulls player before" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Sothron Posted June 19 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 19 I'm a little surprised, even though I might have missed it, that no one noticed in Landry's presser that he was asked point blank who was making the final call on the pick and Landry said it was his decision. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
