I love Afflalo's game, I'm just not sold he wouldn't bolt after one year. I don't want to give up a top 10 pick for a one year rental. But lol at you people saying Hendo is as good. Have you ever actually sat down and watched a little of Afflalo play? Especially last year considering he put up career numbers while being the #1 option on a terrible team.

Wow I said he wasn't an all star. Meaning he's not got star power. He's an average sg. Always has been always will be.

On the other hand. Jefferson has had many season where he should have made

The all star team but got robbed. Nice attempt but try again. For y'all to even compare that is dumb. Affalo was on a terrible team and still didn't put up great numbers be the number one guy.

He's ALMOST 30 and will be a rental. I frighing hate Henderson but would rather have him than do this dumb poo trade for him straight up.

Let's not make excuses...

Afflalo like Jefferson was snubbed from the all-star team this year. At the all-star break Afflalo was averaging 20 points per game.

 

After looking at his career stats, this year he could have made it.  I wouldn't necessarily say he was snubbed. (Would have to look at the other SGs who made it)  I think though if you compared careers, Al Jefferson should have made a couple of all-star rosters.  All that said, after looking at the stats, Afflalo looks pretty good.  His numbers have gone up every season, and at the age of 28, I was wrong to say his skills peaked.  Yeah, I would do it if Afflalo was committed long term.

And nobody said Henderson was better. I said he's not even that much better. They play the same kinda game. Except Hendo can't shoot threes. Good god y'all.

We all know affalo is better chill out. We just don't want a slightly better older Henderson who's hit his limit

They play nothing a like lol. Afflalo fits our need as a floor spacer and perimeter threat. Henderson is a baseline rover (notice that instead of Henderson being next to Kemba on the perimeter, McBob always was and Henderson was slotted in the corner) that uses his athleticism to get to the rim and a fadeaway jumpshot that annoys the piss out of everyone.

Did u not read the part where I said except hit threes. They don't have the ability to break someone down off the dribble. Average handling. Good mid range scorers. Plays good defense. Only thing affalo does is shoot 3's better.

And don't at me wrong guys. I like affalo. Definetely want him but not at the expense of the 9th overall pick for a average player. No thank u.

I have a little more hope for 9th overall pick than Affalo. That's all

I think if it was assured that we would take Stauskas at the ninth pick, I would probably take Stauskas potential over Afflalo's veteran savy. Of course that's just me.

I agree. But honestly I would take most of the guys we rumored to like over affalo. Even McDermott.

Arron Afflalo ranks 8th in shooting guard scoring, 6th in field goal percentage among shooting guards, and 4th in three point percentage among shooting guards. If you want to go even further, he's the second most efficient shooter among shooting guards who average over 35 minutes per game (Dragic is first).

On the contrary, Henderson ranks 18th in shooting guard scoring, 15th in field goal percentage among shooting guards, and didn't even shoot enough three pointers to qualify in the rankings among shooting guards for three point percentage.

I'm gonna go ahead and say that Afflalo is a little better than Henderson.

And if Afflalo sucks because he's never been to an all-star game due to playing in small markets... then so does Al Jefferson.

 

does not justify using a top 10 pick on him. Maybe 24. MAYBE

      Slowing my roll on Ward (for now)

      Him and Sanders are the only QBs I would consider in the first round. I won’t be upset if we take Sanders, unlike some people on the board. Both have potential to be really good NFL QBs if the teams can develop them.  But as we have seen teams are not willing or are unable to now properly develop rookie QBs.

      Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face.
