GM RICH CHO


Recommended Posts

Anyone worry about what this guy will do with the no9 pick (assuming we keep it) or is it just me?

His top notched "comprehensive player database" gave us Bismack Biyombo, MKG, and Cody Zeller while we passed up on guys like Lillard, Thompson, Leonard, Drummond, Beal, and MCW.

Cho should really take a piece out of Dave Gettleman's play book ( BPA ) and throw that piece of $hit in the dumpster!

I guarantee that database will have us taking Doug McDermott.

I aint worried. We have 3 picks in a deep draft loaded with talent. Plus we will more than likely add another top tier free agent.

You're not worry about taking McDermott over Harris, Stauskas, etc? Maybe even over Julius Randle if he's there.

I'm worried, that's one reason I'm really open to trading it.

Im with you. However, I would rather trade down than for a player.

I would love to talk with Chicago for those two picks.

(16) Tyler Ennis

(19) James Young / Rodney Hood / Zach Lavine

(24) PJ Hairston / Cleanthony Early

Ok heres the core

Kemba 3yrs experience

Biyombo 3yrs

Mkg 2 yrs

Jeff Taylor 2 yrs

Cody zeller 1yr

In my honest opinion we aren't gonna be adding 4 more young rookie players to the mix. Which would make us very very young.

I fully expect to see some trades go down involving picks and possibly some players.

There's just no way u add 4 or 3 more rookies to this team.

Nobodies even mentioned this yet, but with the way people hate Kemba I'm sure some would be all over it. Rondo?????

I don't understand the hate for Kemba or Cho.  Cho brought in some good players, hell he got big Al to come here.  Hes a young guy and has proven that he has the potential to help build a big time team like OKC. 

 

MKG was the BPA at the time, and he honestly has shown that he has the ability, IMO to make a huge difference on this team.  He was the reason we even had a sniff at winning game 2.  Bismack is a project and I think we all realized that when he was drafted.  I love Biz.  He's improved every year on both sides of the ball.  Hes still only like 22 or something like that.  

 

To knock him for Zeller is just dumb.  Zeller is another guy who has shown flashes and has grown over the course of the year.

I've said it already. Im not going to rule out a Kemba trade. Especially with now having the no9 pick, no one should rule it out.

Tyler Ennis could be the pick at no9. A trade of Kemba + no24 / no45 to get us a vet shooter could happen. Maybe for Afflalo or someone else.

PG: Tyler Ennis

SG: Aaron Afflalo

SF: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist

PF: Marcin Gortat / Cody Zeller

C: Al Jefferson / Bismack Biyombo

Maybe?

Other than bringing in Al and trading Maggette for the no9 pick this year, Cho hasn't done much.

You really can't say that MKG was BPA at the time. MKG might've been the favorite for majority of CLT fan like myself. MKG, Barnes, and Beal were all neck and neck.

Whoa whoa whoa, where does Gortat come from? That'd be awesome

Gortat is a FA. The dude is very underrated and a defensive presence. Would pair up nicely along with Al. And, Gortat won't break the bank.

Washington may rather go after Monroe who is younger. Monroe (Georgetown) would probably love to head back to D.C.

    • be kind of hard with us going undefeated the rest of the year. yeah...i said it.
    • I don't think it's necessarily selfless to make that trade. I think it's all in how you plan and if you can objectively view the player. You know you're going to have a new coach and be taking a QB in the draft. Whether or not he wanted to admit it, we were going to be beginning a rebuild with a new offense and new defense. Depending on the coach, Burns may not have even been a good fit for the scheme that coach wanted to run.  So, if you're not 1st, you're going to need to trade up. Burns likely is going to want in the 30m per year range. While an effective pass rusher, he was never a complete DE. He wasn't a JJ, TJ, Bosa, or Garrett. He was more Reddick, and while good, never going to be in that top tier contract caliber.  So the question becomes, knowing that you need a QB to go with a new coach, is it better to have your  23, 24 and 25' 1sts  extra 24 and 25 1sts an extra 23'2nd  and 30m aav of future contract cap space to get a QB and edge rusher  Or your 23, 24 and 25 1sts and a good, but not elite DE on an elite tier contract.  6 picks and available 30m AAV in cap space vs 3 picks and 0 extra cap space to get a QB and a good, not great, DE.  To me that is a simple answer and frankly one that could potentially save my job. You have to have vision and be able to recognize value. Fitts over valued Burns like many fans did. I think ultimately what cost him his job was 3 years of not being able to value players correctly. We saw it twice in the draft in 2 separate years when he panicked and couldn't read the draft. DJ Johnson and Matt Corral picks specifically come to mind.  I don't think it was about being selfless as much as being a strategist. Neither Rhule nor Fitts never struck me as very strategic guys. I think they were more let's throw poo at the wall and see what sticks. Unfortunately for the fans, none of it stuck, but it still all stunk. 
    • The issue is the formula is secret, and it incorporates runs... So... Yup, it does. Same with PFF (which isn't quite as secret). But when it doesn't - like on Sunday - it's often to hilarious results. PFF is more reliable I think at matching my 'eye' test.
