Melo Hurt Again

Gotta commit to the tank this year. Sit LaMelo out for a few months to let that ankle get back to full strength. Trade Rozier/Hayward and give the young guys minutes. Sign Miles now so his suspension happens this season not next year. LaMelo, Bridges, Victor W is a great core and we have a bunch of other promising/exciting young players to build around them and would have a ton of cap space.

Agree all around except you know Clifford won't play the young ones. Melo is gone the first chance he gets. This team is snake bitten.

No one wants to come hear. No stars. Small market. Bad ownership. Only way we get good is if a couple top players decided they want to come here and win. 

Melo is 100% a star. Just hurt. Shitty luck this season regarding health of the team as a whole/Bridges situation. 
 

It’s not panic time, it’s just that injuries to all our top players at the same time make us look like ass, and makes it feel hopeless currently. 
 

Better draft picks/Mark Williams getting a year to develop/emergence of Richards.

There is hope and a future.

agree with all except Miles...let the ship sail.

First pick is going to be a 7'2'' guy who is getting all the hype...will be 19, but pairing him with Melo could change the franchise, especially with our youngs getting some pt this year.  But unless we pick first, we won't get him.

Man, Miles is gonna wind up playing somewhere and probably doing very well. It'd be a mistake competitively to just let him go. If we can try to trade him for something great but you can't just get rid of him for nothing. Too big of a setback on the court when we have the ability to keep him. Especially when we'll likely be able to keep him at least for a few years at a HUGE discount compared to what his play on the court deserves.

Gotta get rid of Hayward, his albatross of a contract for little to no impact is Nic Tatum level.

Also, have to either get rid of Oubre or sit his ass to teach him accountability.  He always seems to do the wrong thing for the game.  Even when he has good stats, he loses the game by taking ill-advised, stupid, unnecessarily bad shots.

MJ may turn out to the the worst owner of this era if he doesn't take a huge turn for the better soon.  His meddling has killed any momentum this team gains time and time again.

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
