They recruiting Brunson :hhh:
:francis: Still an upgrade over what we have I guess but I’d trade that fakkit to Egypt. Let him go play basketball in the desert.

Could be that the front office is just scouting and Julius was there to watch his hometown team, and they all just bumped into each other. I still think it's likely Julius is gone.


On the flipside, maybe they all are there together and the front office is gearing up to trade Barret and parts for Mitchell, so they can pair him up with Julius. Who knows brehs.

No...despite Herro being mismatch hunted he had a better year than R.J. and has had a better career including some big play en route to Miami's bubble Finals run.

R.J. might not be mismatch hunted but he isn't a good defensive player. It's clear why Herro made the list over Barrett.
:what:

The list is "best players under 25" based on future potential
NOT "players under 25 who had the best year

The fukk is you on? You trying to tell me Tyler Herro belongs on THAT list?

Yes and their future potential is based on their current play in their career.

Barrett has not had a better career than Herro has and is not as skilled as Herro is. His future potential is not particularly high when you look at his limitations, weaknesses, and player archetype/playstyle.

You trying to tell me R.J. Barrett belongs on THAT list? Why? Volume box score stats and being a Knick? Nikka please.

Brehs, say the Wizards call and offer KP and pick 10 for Randle and Burks and pick 12? :patrice:

Would you accept? Counter? Or just hang up?

Hear me out, KP has 2 year 70 million on his contract. Randle has 4 years 117. I know he’s injury prone but he does help create space for young guys and should solve our stretch big problem for Obi and RJ. I’ll hang up and listen. :jbhmm:
I don't like how everybody is talking trading picks when the lottery hasn't happened yet. Can we know where we pick before we try to trade our pick?

Put the ball in Tyler Herro's hands, make him be the number one option on his team and tell me what he looks like.

Listen....Herro is NICE. But he's feasting in a bench role whereas RJ has been showing his potential as a starter from the beginning.
