I think MCW is better, and they need a backup PG, but his awful shooting is a terrible fit with the other guards on their roster.

MCW is definitely the better player. They both are in desperate need of a change of scenery. There's a lot of guards on the roster right now. Somebody is likely getting moved at the deadline as filler in a trade or GarPax is just throwing **** on the wall and hoping it sticks. Dougie and Niko are going to have to step it up big time shooting, but we already knew that. Snell has been awful and such a huge disappointment where he'd show flashes of being exactly what the team needs coming off the bench in one game or two out of every 35 games or so. Maybe being in Milwaukee will help him finally find some consistency in that.

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread

Always had a soft spot for MCW since I like big point guards but damn, I'm not sure if theres any team out there that would be a worse fit for him. I'm still somewhat optimistic that they'll find some way to work it out though.
Side note but y'all remember when MCW had damn near a quadruple double in his debut against Bron and the Heat? At least we've seen he has potential.

Fixed that for you.

Might be a good trade just from a value perspective. IIRC, Snell started losing minutes to Justin Holiday (who's now in NY) late last season. Not sure if they could have got anything better for him.

One of the biggest frauds to win RoY ever... right up there with Mike Miller

Nah Mike Miller was balling before his injuries.

Mike Miller had a nice little career but he was pretty bad his rookie year... just that rookie class was so bad...

He won on an 11.9 ppg and 43% shooting... Mike really only had one great season when he was 26

Not that he's a knockdown shooter but wasn't he one of their main 3-point shooters?

The new perimeter players they brought in appears to be worse shooters from distance.

They let Dunleavy go, to free money to sign Wade.

But wtf were the Bulls thinking... even if Snell wasn't a great asset for them at the time.. MCW with Rondo/Wade/Butler ? Whatever combo of the 4 you use that's pretty ugly.. Fred will have no floor spacing.. Even less without being able to roll Snell out from time to time..

They never should have traded Knight. He was playing well for them when they did it.
Kidd was infatuated with having the tallest, athletic team in the league. Greg Monroe is next to get traded, he doesn't fit the mantra.

greg Monroe just hasn't been playing well for the bucks that's why he could be traded

If the rookie class was so bad then how does that make him a fraud?

Sure he didn't have an outstanding rookie year, but if he was still better than the other rookies he deserved it right?

But yeah, that was a pretty poor rookie class. Darius Miles, Marcus Fizer, DerMarr Johnson, Chris Mihm all went bust. Stromile Swift never amounted to anything but an energy role player, K-Mart was well below expectations grabbing one All-Star year while expected to be a franchise changer. Just an ugly draft. You could legitimately make a case for Jamal Crawford being the best player from the draft when it's all said and done, that's pathetic.

K-Mart changed our franchise along with Kidd though.

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread

Well Kidd changed your franchise lol. Kidd took nearly the same roster Starberry had from 31 and 26 wins straight to back to back finals.

I think you could even argue that Jefferson was the better player during that stretch over K-Mart. Though it would be close.

I said he changed it ALONG with Kidd. And Kidd also had the benefit of playing in a system that was Taylor made for him and Kenyon that wasn't there before(Only good thing Byron did for us).

And no, Jefferson wasn't the better player during their time together. Sure you have the "numbers" argument but as far as impact on a franchise, it's not an argument.

**ojandpizza** · 10-18-2016, 10:21 AM

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread

I think "changed" is where we are having this disagreement. By my original statement "expected to be a franchise changer" I meant that he was basically expected to be a franchise player. Which isn't false, he was coming out of college supposed to be the next big thing. He never lived up to that, or anything close to that.

I gave RJ the edge for defense and a 3 point shot, not numbers. As far as impact on the franchise he came in as a 6th man on a team finals bound, so no his impact on the teams initial turnaround wasn't as large as K-Mart's.
