The Official NBA Season Thread: Fries Discourse | Mavs vs Jazz

[B Sox]

Clearly it is but you convinced Masai has that package on the table

Wouldn’t do that deal at all if im Toronto

Don’t think Trent has a ton of value so he’s more there for salary matching. I absolutely think Masai would trade one of the big wings. Most likely OG.

Even just that is comparable if not better than Miami’s offer.

Then some potential combo of Dikk Pics.

Who has more upside Cade Cunningham or RJ Barrett ?

Cade to me, but as a matter of personal preference, I’m always going favor the guy with more of an offensive bag and passing ability.

I like Cade a lot. I think he has the potential to be like a 18-6-6 guy.

 

[Manny Fernandez718]

I like the OG fit way more, but Herro is the better player.

The fit is the most important part. The blazers already got skinny wings

 

[B Sox]

Portland already has Black Tyler Herro. Zero need for the white one too.

Herro being better than OG is definitely debatable.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Portland needs defense not more offense

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Lot of planted stories coming out

 

[Maximus Meridius]

The Raptors though?? Man said he want a chip.

Huh? That's disrespectful to Cade.

 

[ballinsam23]

Blazers need to figure out what direction they want to head.

If it’s to get a top 3 pick, idk if having some combo of Scoot-Simons-Sharpe-Grant + some combination of OG/Herro/Ayton necessarily gets you there.

Just feel like a dame, barnes and siakam is so meh. Tracking all that draft equity and your lottery pick this season seems foolish

 

[Manny Fernandez718]

Huh? That's disrespectful to Cade.

I don't think you realize RJ's numbers. The last 2 years he's around 20 and 5 , as a third option.

They also a year apart in age

 

[Maximus Meridius]

You shoulda listened to Bron in 2021 and came to the Lakers and you wouldn't be going through this Dame.

 

[aepps20]

I really want Dame to stay in Portland and see where things go with the young core.

Cade already did 17/5/5 as a rookie. He’s going to be a 22/6/6 guy this year health permitting

 

[Mister Meaner]

Anyone trading for OG is getting themselves a rental.

Further down the line, I wonder how the Yanny to the Knicks thing is gonna be coined on that front page moment:

Greek Freak takes over Big Apple!
The Freak lands in NYC!
New Greek City
NEW FREAK CITY

NYC, LET’S GETS FREAKY!

 

[Mark Antony]

How are these white dudes getting networks?

 

[ballinsam23]

Even though RJ played real well this years playoffs as a 2nd or 3rd option most nights, Cade is better.

 

[WASHED KING]

RJ's ceiling is probably poor man's Demar Derozan with less athleticism.

Cade easily >

 

[ill steelo]

I doubt trading almost all of the assets for a 33 year old is Masai’s master plan

Cronin is just trying to create a market but Riley won’t bid against himself.

 

[allergic2broke]

So dikk, expiring og and picks is better ?

Got it

1st rd sweep at best

Famb. Y’all gotta stop acting like Portland doesn’t already have Scoot who they just drafted, Simon’s who recently got paid and Sharpe who they are trying to develop. Herro has no value ON THAT ROSTER. Period.

If I’m Cronin and Riles is insisting on a Herro package then I am saying “Get a 3rd team or ****”

you have the potential to be the best 8th seed of all time as long as dame is there

Candidly I think this will be true no matter where he ends up.
