i sat 8 rows behind the bench when i was home over the holidays and i can tell you from that vantage point, this is not correct.
original gugua is the most physically imposing player on the team.
That said, I am with the camp hesitant to trade OG for short term gain.
But that all depends on what exactly Masai or Webster are up to when they (more Masai) implied that they want to run it back.
For me, this team is one impactful personnel short, somone who can slow down Giannis in a SEVEN game seriesLast edited by The Claw Reborn; Mon Feb 3, 2020, 04:36 PM.

I could see maybe serge and Marc being in for that. But it would define all logic for FVV to take a 1 year deal.

The guy is still only 24 years old.
I don't think there's a fit in Toronto but I would like to see him get out of Minny and into a really good organization that might be able to maximize his abilities.

This whole situation has really soured my opinion of Iguodala. He's basically turned up his nose on playing for a decent young team, and is getting paid while not fulfilling any part of his contract. He was even on TV recently talking about how happy he's been to take a year off of playing, and how it will extend his career a bit longer

If Masai and Webster are both aiming to run it back this season and setting aside for a moment salary flexibility in 2021, I would think that they are pre-planning for the East Finals with the thinking how can they at least limit Giannis free reign without exposing and overtiring Pascal at the defensive end of the court.
Internally, Ibaka is the most logical one. Therefore to make a run for a championship, Ibaka is not going anywhere as he is the only guy on this team behind Kawhi last season who was able to slow down the freak. OG’s body and BBIQ has not fully developed yet.
Now focusing outside: Capella, Tucker, Jonathan Isaac (injured), Iggy to me are the most viable pieces that may at least make Gianni’s life in the playoffs somewhat difficult.
Question: Does Bobby or Masai willing to give up their existing assets for one of these guys?

The whole Igoudala situation is very peculiar. Why isn't he playing? Is he injured? I know the official reasoning is "he's healing his body for a year" and then will find a place to land. That sounds a little too fluffy to me. Maybe I'm old fashioned but if you're not injured, and yet feel you can't physically take an NBA season after your summer break, you either (a) retire or (b) go to your coach, explain the situation, and ask for a role with reduced minutes you feel you can handle. From Memphis's perspective, they're paying him. So yeah the least they can do is play hardball and get some assets in return if he's not ready to play there.

At first memphis wanted him to report to training camp. He refused. Then Memphis came out and said they made a mutual agreement that he will stay away from the team till they find a trade partner. Iggy seems to think he's above even showing up for a team that isnt a contender. It would be hilarious if they can't find a trade they just held him and said either you play or no one going to know your real value when you hit F.A next summer.
If he is traded i would like to see him either with us, Mavs or Nugs. Fuck L.A

bertarapsfan wrote: View PostWhat does everybody think about how Memphis is handling the Iggy situation? It seemed most people in league circles just expected them to buy him out a long time ago so he could join one of the L.A teams. Memphis stands pat and say they will only trade. Now if they don't get a deal by deadline and they buy him out he could go to join a potential 1st round opponent? I like that they haven't bent over to help a big market team so far.
Do you think it's worth it to just hold onto him if no one comes with an offer? Or will agents/players remember that when the are making F.A pitches?
