And I'm telling you teams don't do that (use a high pick on a center to play center when they are fine with their starting center). You claim...
No, I keep asking the same question over and over because you have yet to provide a relevant answer. You claimed that GM's use top picks to stack...
Where was Rodman drafted? Great players can emerge from anywhere, but find me one GM that says "we are going to get the top prospect with our #10...
And again, he felt so strongly about him that he spent a #2 pick on another center. And top 10 picks are not considered the top prospects in a...
Memphis had Gasol for a full year and they still spent a #2 pick on a center. Why do you keep ingoring that? That doesn't sound like a team who...
I guess Simmons didn't pay any attention to KG, who was arguably worse.
He was known but wasn't some top prospect as folks here are claiming. He had the value of say a 2nd round pick. If the Grizz thought he was a...
No you didn't. You gave me examples of teams picking guys to play alongside each other. So are you saying the Grizz were planning to play Gasol...
Um...basketball teams. :)
If they meet LA in the Finals he will pay huge dividends against Bynum.
It's just as wrong to say they got ZBO with the cap space from that trade. The more accurate statement would be they used some of the cap space...
So does this mean you can't provide examples of teams doing what you claim the Grizz did, which is spending top picks on stockpiling talent behind...
The Heat blow leads too often.
So you thought the Grizz received a fair deal when the trade was made? I don't see how you are coming to that conclusion. I'm assuming Gasol...
Thanks for clearing things up.
Because they could both play side by side. Are you arguing that the Grizz thought Thabeet and Gasol could play side by side? That's simply...
Because we could play them alongside one another. Typically teams don't spend a high pick on a dude where they already have a player at his spot...
Game link?
Lotto teams don't use #2 picks to stockpile assets when they have other holes to fill. Let's just say that we never spent a top pick on a center...
I know right. It makes no sense to tout Gasol when the Grizz drafted a center #2. You don't spend a #2 pick on a backup center, or when you have...
