He’s had a slump this year, taking dumb mid range shots, getting worse at defense, and just in general a loss in athleticism – but you can’t convince me losing a 20ppg scorer for nothing is a good thing

If they’re looking to move Norman Powell and Terrance Mann I wouldn’t be upset at having either one of those players, but that would further complicate our guard logjam and we’d just be running out of roster spots at some point too, so not sure how much this actually does for us. A 2030/31 clippers first would go a long way however…

If we can sign and trade him for Powell, PJ Tucker and their 2031 first rounder. I say take it.

I’m kind of surprised at some of the Miles love on this post. I understand that he was asked to do too much this past year, but regardless of that I have some big problems with him long term. I just don’t think his archetype fits a winning team. I’ll be interested to hear what the Hornets offer was but i would really struggle to go over $25m for him. I’d feel bad about giving him 25 but i’d do it. His defensive limitations are the primary thing. His profile at the 3/4 is just not a winning formula.
