How many has Randle had?
We're holding a top 75 player of all time to the same standard as Julius Randle? That's where we're at?

D’Lo is just there to be traded. We all know that.
But I can see this happening if Reaves continues underperforming.
Why the Bull would want Reaves or D’Lo is beyond me tho.

They do a good job matching pics to headlines. Rob’s look there very much says just “some level of interest”.

Yep, that was conveniently swept under the rug. And now he’s a ******* head coach in the League.
Karl Malone got the red carpet rolled out for him last year at ASW. We all know about his sex offender ways…
Primo whipped his **** out on multiple occasions and he’s back in the League after a brief hiatus…
Ron Artest, Matt Barnes and Darren Collison all had domestic violence arrests and kept playing…
The lack of standards isn’t new.

Went from better than Jokic to “he had a great half “

I wish basketball was more strict with its criteria for Legends. Anthony Davis is Top 75. That is not accurate.
I love Paul George... In a stricter sport, Paul George isn't a HoF guy.

Reaves been playing bad (for him) to start the season. Defense has been bad, shooting down, foul baiting way down. Still averaging 13.5/5/5 on decent percentages coming off the bench. 4 years/57 million is a good deal for Austin Reaves regardless. He'll bounce back

Austin had even less experience, and showed & proved in his very first game, on the road. And kept it going after that.
You just can’t quantify mental fortitude when it matters. Some guys have it, others don’t. If you prove to have it, those guys should be held closely.
To your point, maybe Zach does have it but I’m not moving a proven guy to find out.

Think LaVine just has loser habits, but perhaps a change of scenery and pecking order would change his play and my view.

Lauri had military duties and played in FIBA but Reaves still needs to get his legs under him

I agree with all of this.
Some guys will never have it. No matter what they do in the regular season. (Enter Julius) for example.
But Lavine I really don’t know.

Right. Lauri was Finnish MJ out there. Came back and picked up right where he left off. Same with shai.Lauri had military duties and played in FIBA but Reaves still needs to get his legs under him

What's Poole's excuse?Lauri had military duties and played in FIBA but Reaves still needs to get his legs under him
He had a whole free summer of "refinement"
