    Klay often has to guard the pg

    Curry is good at getting steals but one on one he's average Imo

    Embiid is a monster. On another note, bag of potato chips+Luol Deng for Noel? :D

    Noel is at least good defensively even if he's a bum offensively.

    Bag of potato chips + sandwich for Okafor is cool though lol

    Derozan is unbelievably underrated, best shooting guard in the league.

    Klay is better than derozen for sure and. Tyler maybe? If derozen could shoot the 3 well he would be the best offensively for sure

    Also sammer we have to make a choice between okafor and Noel

    A great pick n roll defender with nothing on offence and mobility or a great post scorer who can rebound at an average clip and not play d especially when taken away from the key

    Lucky for us Embiid seems a combination of both

    Personally I would keep Noel and bring in a scoring second unit around him

    I haven't been watching Timberwolves games, but am I the only one who is kind of shocked that they aren't better than a 2-5 record at this point? They're young, but given the hype, and KAT being one of the best centers in the NBA, I don't know, would've thought they'd be further along.

    It's prolly time to trade Rubio for something.

    I disagree on this. We have not seen Klay as the alpha of his team. Derozan is a better ball handler, and better in creating his own shot. Klay is the better catch and shoot player, he fits in as second or third option on contending team.
    But a bad team, Derozan would take it further then Klay would ever IMO. As first option, I will easily take Derozan.

    Depends on the system

    Klay and butler are guys I. Can see on championship sides

    De Rosen maybe not

    I think he's a good player but the raptors are never gonna win anything

    This Timberwolves game is ugly... Lakers just didn't come to play and the Wolves are hitting all kinds of crazy trickshots.

    Four threes made by D'Angelo almost in a row barely 7 minutes into this Nets game.

    Man, Russell is such a Jekyll-and-Hyde player right now. He sucked against the Wolves when I saw him, but he's lit right now. Scary to think what he could be if he played with consistency.

    Mozgov and Randle are two badass mofos.

    Lopez is such a mismatch with that three-point range though. Don't know when he got that, but it makes guarding him much more difficult.

    I never thought Mozgov will be orchestrating a team

    He's a pretty limited and stiff athlete, but he makes the best of his tools and is overall a great guy to have in your lineup. Rebounds, protects the rim, dunks with a vengeance. Simple yet effective.

    Well I mean that's the idea. Mozgov and Deng weren't just brought in for their skills. They were brought in to help the youngsters learn how to play professional grown-man NBA ball.
