The Whole let's trade Kemba crowd


Sub Zero

Recommended Posts

If he stays, great. Most fans want that. If he leaves in the off season it will be a bad move to get nothing. That is what most of the trade Kemba crowd is thinking (which did include me). If he truly wants to be here, he will stay. Players always say nice things about where they are currently playing in a contract year, not all stay there after that season. It is not idiotic to try to get something of value for a player who could leave with no compensation and burn a hole through the following season as well. In this case, Kemba is likely to stay after recent inside info. So, if it all goes according to plan there is no need to trade him. I would be getting the contract done ASAP.

Yeah, I still want to tank. This team has too many inconsistent players to do anything. Kemba is even inconsistent. If he could consistently average 27 ppg we would be fine. But, this dude can't even score well against the damn Bulls. He fuging struggled tonight. Tank and try to get Zion.

I swear you don't watch the games. Kemba fought through double teams all fuging night and when he would dish to a wide open shooter they fuging bricked almost every time. Marvin and Nic were fuging 2-12 from three and we're paying them a combined 30 million+ this season and playing them 30+ minutes a night. No team has a chance to win when that happens. But like usual we have a chance at the end to win the game and Nic Batum fuging blows it with a terrible inbound pass. Nic has single handedly lost us 2 of our 5 games this season. I am honestly at the point where I think this team would be better off if we just buy him out of his contract. I don't think we would be able to get anyone to trade for him and he is losing us games when he is on the court.

I honestly don't even know how Kemba scores more than 20 a game with how much defensive focus is put on him. Notice how almost every time one other guy on the team scores more than 20 we win. Swap Batum out with a guy like Khris Middleton and we are a top 4 team in the east.

Tanking doesn't help us with Batum's contract on the books. I never thought I would hate another player more than I hated Boris Diaw, but man was I wrong. How the fug do you only score 13 points in 38 damn minutes fug me.

    • This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.
    • All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
    • Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.
