Hold Onto Your Butts: MKG BEING SHOPPED.

The rumor going around is the following.

 

NBA Legion (twitter account) has taken the rumor first reported by ProBBallDraft (twitter account) and rolled with it...

 

The official rumor is that the BuzzCats are trying to unload MKG and replace him with Otto Porter (if he is available).

 

NBA Legion reports that the Celtics, Bucks, Warriors, and Hawks are all interested in MKG.

 

For what it's worth NBA Legion does have 53K followers, so I assume they are semi-credible.

The Hawks don't seem like a good fit because all they have is Horford and it would take MKG, Henderson (sign and trade), plus our first rounder to get him... which means we wouldn't be able to draft Porter.

 

I don't know how this would work but I tried to make something work with the Celtics and came up with Jeff Green and Avery Bradley for MKG and Ramon Sessions.

    • That was always the fear, expectation, concern, etc, I had.  Someone showed a still shot from his pick last game and said it showed that the defender closed 3 yards on that ball in the last portion of its flight. I forget the number. 10 yards I think it said but that sounds extreme.  When guys are open by a step, any slowing down to wait for the ball lets the defender back into the play. That sort of stuff makes the margins so small… these NFL CBs are not slow.   It is a league that highly values foot speed; the 40 times and drill times are scrutinized down to the hundredth of a second when evaluating these players on both sides of the passing game. Receivers and defenders both.   My thing with his arm strength (or anyone’s) was always “why do you want to do that? Plus pay extra picks to put yourself in that situation?”. Asking for trouble.     I wish there was a way to measure velocity on the back half of a throw compared to when it left the hand. Or really get accurate reading of the flight time of a ball from the near hash to the sideline, 10 yards down the field. Because teams could use that info. I have always seen this as being a disadvantage with Bryce but it is beyond my ability to quantify it.   I think it would show what that arm strength is really about, a lot more than just measuring how much air can you put under it so it will fly as far as possible.   
    • Who didn't see that coming.... 
    • Its a detriment if he can't play...as we are seeing.
