but my point about their logjam at SG and dearth of guys at SF has merit. how do they fully incorporate their young talent at SG when they are committed to a SG to the tune of $30M per year for the next 5 years - and that shooting guard is actually on the small side as far as PGs go? simons isn't going to play SF - he's like 6-4 175. trent's a little bigger - maybe 6-5 205 - but that's still a size mismatch at SF every night. those two are SGs with a lot of promise - and as long as CJ is riveted to the SG spot for the next 5 years, they are on the outs.

I should have double checked, but even the Twitter post said "next year", which served as some validation. Though they probably meant 'next season'. Again, my bad.
It’s not just this. Teague’s salary was off in that thing by a factor of 10 for how long? If they can’t keep simple shit up to date, are we supposed to believe they’re up to date on some of the more arcane clauses of the CBA?

It’s just a joke. I’d attempt to do the math myself rather than throw my trust in a program built by a corporate conglomerate meant to draw in rubes living in fantasyland.

Their promise doesnt compare to CJ's reality, though. According to bbref Trent has logged 60% of his minutes at SF and Simmons has split his minutes backing up Dame and CJ.

Wolves would have to add a considerable amount to Wiggins to get CJ. And it's not like Wiggins is a great matchup at SF.

it's still something i wish they would pursue. it does offer a way out of a little quandry that portland has. trent has played some SF, but is that his best spot? with wiggins, portland gets a player who replaces cj's points, who costs the same for the same number of years, plays the same questionable D - but is 4 years younger and plays not only a different position, but one that the blazers are currently short-handed at.

There are a TON of 0 years left across it. Also, extensions that don't show up, like Spencer Dinwidde. My bad. I was wrong. Pound for pound it is great with the mechanics of trades, but it has flaws and which they really seem disinterested in correcting. The Teauge thing was there for years and worse he was a candidate to be traded i.e. a player that would drive traffic to it.

Is Trent someone they should be overly concerned about getting minutes, though? I'll be honest, I'm biased against him due to his high school days, maybe he's changed. And I think theres a difference between Wiggins's points and CJ's.

he's showing flashes. led them to a victory the other day against the thunder with 30 pts. hitting 39% of his threes this year.

I haven’t been on that thing in a long, long time, but I’d be surprised if it didn’t. My overall point though was that it’s just a tool they can use to drive click-throughs to the rest of the site.

Wouldn't surprise me ESPN is using early OUGHT logic, but I don't know how successful it is at using the rest of the site as a driver of traffic. 1. If you google it (+auto-fill) it brings you to the link real quick without entering the site and 2. Speed-dials have taken over which are easier and more practical than using favorites. Then again this could be why they don't want to invest in it. DOWN WITH THE PATRIARCHY!!!!!

Hey, you decided to be a dickbag in your initial reply despite not having a clue what you're talking about.
I wasn't trying to be a dickbag. I was addressing a point I thought was legitimate and needed to be mentioned for your edification, turns out I was the one that needed to be edified. That is all. Moreover I didn't read anything into you correcting me, I was wrong. I do have an issue with wanting to fight when I am willing to admit it. You know being a real dickbag.

I would do this trade:

Covington to Sixers for Mattisse Thybulle, a 2022 first round pick lottery protected, salary filler Mike Scott and Trey Burke.
Lol. Why would philly do that?
That would be the cost to acquire a player like Robert Covington. What would you request for him?
I think the pick or Thybulle and Scott. Both seems excessive imo.

No. Not in this market. You don't give up a player that is in the highest demand on one of the best contracts in the NBA for strictly a FRP or a modest prospect, you need both. Period. Otherwise he will bring in one or the other next year where variables may change and a different player may be in demand or an equal or more lucrative player is on the market. In other words Covington is going to get you SHIT!!!! In a good way!!!!

People are underselling what is going on.

The only way I can see us not dealing Covington is if we have a pre-conceived trade with a team that requires us to wait to next year where restrictions no-longer prevent the consummation of said deal. I am not sure how handshake deals work or if we want to take the risk, but common sense would dictate that if we don't trade him we have a deal in place with his value as it is now.

Really? First, you really have no understanding of how a trade in the NBA works. Scott plus at least another player, along with Thybulle, needs to be included since both teams are above the salary cap level.

Second, Scott is just salary filler. I'm certainly not trading Robert Covington, a quality role player on a good NBA contract, for just a late first round pick. Maybe you do that, but few people would. If Thybulle isn't in the deal then I would want two first round picks.

Not how it works Chief. There are restrictions placed on teams be it they are under the cap, apron or hard capped. You would only need to deal Thybulle and Scott to make a deal work between MN and PHI. I already addressed this. Way to ignore it and continue BS. We do agree on a level of valuation...there is that.

Dont ask why, but let's pretend you had a lot of dicks. Like 300 of them in your basement. And you needed to move them to another location. Are you going to carry them out 1 by 1? No, you're going to put them in a bag... It's exhausting explaining this basic common knowledge to you people.

YOu are making a mountain out of a mole hill. YOu are right, Scott and Thybulle just barely makes the 100%+$5 million lower bound. Congratulations.

And that no one knows what a dickbag is.
Dont ask why, but let's pretend you had a lot of dicks. Like 300 of them in your basement. And you needed to move them to another location. Are you going to carry them out 1 by 1? No, you're going to put them in a bag... It's exhausting explaining this basic common knowledge to you people.

Really? First, you really have no understanding of how a trade in the NBA works. Scott plus at least another player, along with Thybulle, needs to be included since both teams are above the salary cap level.

Second, Scott is just salary filler. I'm certainly not trading Robert Covington, a quality role player on a good NBA contract, for just a late first round pick. Maybe you do that, but few people would. If Thybulle isn't in the deal then I would want two first round picks.
Not how it works Chief. There are restrictions placed on teams be it they are under the cap, apron or hard capped. You would only need to deal Thybulle and Scott to make a deal work between MN and PHI. I already addressed this. Way to ignore it and continue BS. We do agree on a level of valuation...there is that.
YOu are making a mountain out of a mole hill. YOu are right, Scott and Thybulle just barely makes the 100%+$5 million lower bound. Congratulations.
Then why correct someone if you know you are wrong? And be a DICK, no, DICKBAG and tell them they don't understand or know something?

Because that person I "corrected" thought we could just get a first round pick and did not understand that additional salaries needed to be included.

My guess the Sixers would want to dump another player in that deal anyways, so there is also that.
