I’m thinking it may just be due to the fact he knows it’s not working here and he can go back to being a starter with a more defined role.
We make out like bandits.Split T wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 1:46 pmMy guess now…maybe the same trade but more likely multiple
Out: Nurk/Allen/1st
In : Goga/Toppin
Nurk and a 1st to Washington
Allen to Orlando
Jonas to Indy(with a couple 2nds from Orlando)
Goga and Toppin to Phoenix.
Tyus/Booker/Dunn/KD/Bitadze
Morris/Beal/Oneale/Toppin/Richards
Kinda lame but it does balance the roster better and only sacrifices 1 pick. Think we gotta move Grayson for size if we keep Beal.

Damn right it is. A bonafide 25yo defensive wall and an uber athletic forward who can shoot. For Allen and a 1st? While also dumping Jusuck? Sign me up right away. For reference take a look at what it is allegedly demanded by Utah for Kessler (multiple 1stRs, up to three even).Charlie Smithy! wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 4:44 pmDamn, that's hotRing_Wanted wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 4:34 pmWe make out like bandits.Split T wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 1:46 pmMy guess now…maybe the same trade but more likely multiple

I was honestly just referring to the making out, but yeah, not a bad trade eitherRing_Wanted wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 4:51 pmDamn right it is.

What high expectations were placed upon Richards? We paid two 2ndR for him. Everybody knows he is questionable as a starter; more like upper tier backup. Obviously better than anything we had when our center rotation was Nurkic (corpse, unplayable), Plumlee (8-10mpg caliber) and Oso (2ndR rookie, nice project but not ready).Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 5:14 pmYou guys are severely overrating Goga and Obi. They should be back-end rotation players.
Better than Nurk rotting on the bench and we definitely need size in the front court. I’d just caution high expectations, very much like Nick Richards.
There were some very high expectations from some people when the trade happened and after his first game.Ring_Wanted wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 5:26 pmWhat high expectations were placed upon Richards?
