No brainer…I wouldn’t trade Lamelo for anyone right now.  He has infused this franchise with so much across the board.  Feels like the Grandmama, Zo days.  

I mean Larry Johnson was like my favorite draft pick ever for us till now.  I literally lost my mind when we picked him.  The numbers didn’t pan out but LJ was a beast out of UNLV.  Such an amazing natural leader.  Love LJ to this day

LaMelo Ball said he found out he was making the All-Star team from GM Mitch Kupchak. He said at the time he was taking a nap. 

He said the conversation went something like this:

Ball: Hello (groggy from the nap)

Kupchak: Good news. You made the All-Star team.

Ball: oh word? That’s what’s up. Thanks. (Hangs up. Lies back down.)

      In a perfect world he’d play out his contract and if he looks great you can tag or extend him. But I wouldn’t offer more than a third. And I wouldn’t extend up front

      I am not endorsing or rejecting.. just commenting. NYG GM Schoen and Morgan are like, vacation buds. Did the Burns trade already.  If we had interest it should be do-able. One year rental? Could be cheap. But it would need to be. Maybe a player could go back to them. More than that? Like trade for and extend him? I don’t know enough about him to really say about that. What LG just said sheds some light.    In a general sense, we have done well with our late rounders but the reason for that may apply less going forward. Tillis referenced this as well in his combine interview the other day. When you have holes everywhere it is easy to fill them with a draft pick, but once you have gotten things to a certain level that changes. At that point maybe a late round pick doesn’t upgrade your team like it did n previous seasons.  Hence the low picks become less impactful for us, there is less utility. Which could play into them being more willing to use them in a trade.
