Notice Of Separation: The 2023 NBA Free agency/Off-Season Thread

Based on what? That's easy to say in hindsight.

Dame doesn't have a great track record against the Warriors in the playoffs either. You're gutting the roster and losing continuity by trading for him. He doesn't improve their biggest weaknesses either.

The Kings have De'Aaron Fox. Why would they need Dame Lillard?

Puts more pressure on a bad warriors defense. It was seven game series. You don’t think Dame would’ve been a difference or you think Dame would’ve made them worst because it’s not making sense what you’re saying.


You’re worried about nothin. The kings aren’t trading core piece(Fox and Sabonis) if you can keep them around Lillard you do it and move forward

the warriors didn't even have to play honest defense for entire stretches because looney robbed sac of like 20 straight possessions by tilting the rebounding difference so hard lol

offense was never sacramento's problem. not sure how people are getting to that conclusion at all. they had a legit shot to beat GS in a shootout and lost because they couldn't control the glass of all things

Offense wasn't the issue for the Kings in that series. Dame ain't stopping Curry. Dame ain't keeping Looney off the offensive glass. It's an irrelevant point anyway.

Kings biggest issues are rebounding and defense. Dame isn't solving either of those issues.

So y’all saying Lillard wouldn’t move the needle…

NBA regular season is a bore

Casual goofy

I've been saying that since the hypothetical trade was brought up.

 

[42 Monks]

move it where? they literally had the best offense in the league last season lol. it doesn't fix the problem they ran into

you don't get to play offense when you don't have the ball. rebounding is the most critical yet overlooked aspect of basketball fr. lillard doesn't fix that at all. its like cleveland looking to pick up another shotblocker.

 

[VegetasHairline]

You're also giving up two players that space the floor and can move without the basketball. That impacts the way Fox and Sabonis play. Dame ain't moving off the ball.

Of course it is when you watching the bulls be trash for a decade

 

[staticshock]

Y’all crazy as fukk if you’re cool with your team giving Sabonis that

No fukkin way. I wouldn’t give a nikka 200 mil unless they’ve won a title, MVP or they are a generational player

bro literally crumbled under the pressure and got a raise for what

 

[Lord Beasley]

Sabonis is an under sized center that can’t defend or space the floor

Of course he’s going to get exposed in the playoffs when teams are actually game planning and exploiting weakness

Once again, if your argument is look at what someone did in the regular season then you lost

He's a 3 time all-star who averages a double double and shot 37% from 3. Defensively you're somewhat correct, but ppl said the same about Joker and he's slower ( I'm not saying he's Sabonis level, I'm just comparing one aspect)

Mfs is just flat wrong about Sabonis. With more experience he'll be a force

We all watched him get hoed against GS. They left him open and he was bricking them shyts

If the Kings didn’t do it then there would’ve been multiple other teams that did .

Bro is an All NBA player that with Fox led the Kings to their best season since Young Joc had rap in a chokehold.

If he not deserving of his money then every other nikka that got the bag these past couple days ain‘t either because they’ve accomplished far less .
