Clutch player of the year at work!

I was discussing possible landing spots for Giannis with my nephew the other day and which teams have the resources trade for him. The Spurs came up on our discussion, and it sounded like a pretty legit trade, since Spurs has picks.

Giannis for Castle, Sohan, bunch of other guys to balance the salary, and 2 to 3 first round picks. Maybe throw in some second round picks in there as well? What do you guys think?

I would rather see him go to the Spurs than the Knicks. If Wemby and Giannis could stay healthy that might be a duo that can beat OKC.

Yep. Fox, Champagnie, Vassell, Giannis, Wemby. That is one scary looking starting line up.

I think Harper will work his way into the starting lineup, before too long.

Not yet, but definitely soon. Will be sooner with Castle gone but probably longer if the roster stays as is. He's showing a lot of promise, getting big minutes and making big plays late in games.

I know I would rather deal Fox and hold onto Castle

Taking on Giannis is a win now move. Castle probably not yet a win now starting point guard. Needs maybe 2 more seasons. Fox is a win now point guard. Castle is young and has great potential though.

I like bringing in Giannis to make them a contender early in Wemby's career, but otherwise completely being on Wemby's timeline.

Yes, the team with Castle and Harper and a bunch of other young guys is completely on Wemby's timeline.

Ron Harper is back? Might as well. He will be the Philip Rivers of the NBA.

I asked AI if Dylan Harper and Ron Harper were related and it said "Yes, Dylan Harper is the son of former NBA champion Ron Harper, making them father and son."

Haha thanks for clearing that up. Just incase I didn't get the "is the son of" part.

Yep, Dylan is Ron Harper's son.

But did you know that makes them father and son?

AI is so insightful.

I guess it was saying the same thing twice to reinforced the fact that they are father and son. In case you didn't get it the first time, haha.
