Ibaka and Marvin are pretty similar at this point in their careers - Ibaka's the much better rim protector though.. we need to collect talent at this point.. unless the Allstar break gives our team a boost of energy- we are sunk.. our bench is horrible.. without Kemba or Batum on the court - we loose horrid.. Sessions has been a big disappointment to me.. Frank has surprisingly taken a step back.. it's just all been bad.. Belinelli has been the only guy that I would consider an asset outside of our starting 5..

Hibbert, Sessions, Frank, Lamb, Hawes - ship em all out..

 

Sadly, we will be stuck looking to play third wheel in the Melo deal or the Butler deal.. without gaining anything real and pick up the scraps while the bigger markets flourish..

 

I'm just a bowl full-o sunshine this morning, aren't I..

Yea, but you're also realistic.

If we can hold on to Frank I'd prefer that because I do believe that offensively, he has the skill set to be successful. I'm willing to chalk it up to a Sophomore slump and hope he gets in a rhythm towards the end of the season and into next year. That being said, if dealing Frank nets us an upgrade of some sort I'm ok with it.

Ibaka would be a solid addition. We are lacking defense right now especially our second unit. Don't know what the magic are asking but I would be willing to trade Frank for Ibaka if he's willing to resign for a reasonable deal. 

Send them Frank and Hawes/Hibbert maybe toss in a second round pick.

      Sorsby and the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.

      I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.

      Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
