D.J. Augustin for Jamal Crawford believed to be a possible option


Recommended Posts

But it's not really depth if he is only here for one year. The problem with this trade is not the talent of Crawford. It just doesn't make sense for us. We are building for the future and any trade involving DJ needs to bring back youth or picks.

Not even the Lakers are thin enough at PG to give up a 1st for Augustin. I'll be shocked if someone does that.

Well they are going to need youth with that aging roster. So that might be just as much a factor. But I don't think there's anything unfair about DJ warranting a late 1st round pick.

That's what it's going to take for the Lakers or anyone else to get him and I'm pretty sure it will get done. The Bobcat's should be down Diaw, Augustin and maggette by the trade deadline picking up 2 first rounders and a couple of scrubs to make money work.

Nah I'm good, at this point DJ is a way better use of a player than Crawford is.

Besides Kemba, who's still working on his shooting stroke and passing, who else do we have? Cory Higgins isn't gonna cut it.

It's not about winning the next few seasons, this team is going to be bad for a few seasons just like Oklahoma was. The goal is to get rid of as many older players as possible, cut cap back as much as possible to open up in 2013 or 2014 FA and as many 1st round draft picks as possible over the next few seasons.

    • This is a wild statement it’s to late to save his season with six games left? That mountain of bad film as a rookie with trash coaching a weak azz line and dismal WRs. Guys that can’t catch on with other teams or guys traded to teams that are subpar at best. We put Bryce in a terrible situation to start his career does that matter to you or you feel he should’ve, as a rookie elevate this dumpster fire. If you’re giving him a fair assessment judge him off the last four games a good o-line decent WRs still not comparable to any other young QB WR room Hou (tank/nico..) Tua (Hill/Waddle) Caleb (Moore/Rome/Allen) let’s see what he can do with a decent structure around him for the next few weeks then let’s revisit how we’re going to grade or assess his performances.
    • As a bit of counterpoint, if he wanted to continue his professional career then handling it like a mature adult was the only option. Dude had been playing like absolute ass and needed to own it. It's great that he did but it's not like he didn't have a large amount of self interest in doing so. Not picking on Bryce specifically here, as this applies to any player or even anyone struggling early in their career. And he still has a long way to go, but signs are positive.
    • I agree he could still develop, but I think that could still be developed in practice. Just after a scary injury like that, I'm nervous to see him get reps in a live game situation when the best possible outcome is nothing more than worsening our draft selection. That said, I'm 100% not a doctor, so if he's clear to play, he wants to play, and there's no potential of aggravating this injury (which by all accounts it doesn't seem that is the case for this type of injury) then go for it, I guess.   But you hit the nail on the head. This draft class is really impressive. I can't remember the last time I was so impressed with a rookie that I'd actually prefer shutting him down. His game is so apparent that he doesn't need to prove anything at this point. Can't remember the last time that happened!
