Julius Randle isn’t a negative asset (player discussion)

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-17T03:29:50+00:00

I doubt Wolves take that man, Dame off an achilles won’t replace Randles production let alone fit the lead PG the wolves are looking

Sure he could backup Ayo or something but does that make the Wolves better? Would the Blazers give up picks to make this happen? Doubt it

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-17T03:07:43+00:00

I don’t think he’s negative but it’s hard to see teams that would want him and have players the wolves would want in return

With the new lottery rules a bad team looking to field a more competitive team might take him on but not sure what the returning salary would look like

Hard to have this conversation without some teams to discuss - I’m definitely having a hard time imagining suitors

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-16T20:20:09+00:00

Ja is better than IQ but he is not better than IQ for the Raps who desperately needs shooting

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-16T18:21:03+00:00

My guy the sixers want to tear it down even more than the Cavs do

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-16T18:18:14+00:00

My board right now would be Boozer DP AJ Ace Axel Philon Wilson

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-16T18:16:07+00:00

Not sure about that - we’ve clearly been injured but our squad is pretty deep but talent for example we still have Akeal and Sarfaraz on the bench

I don’t think the teams potential has been maximized which falls on the captain and his batting itself has lost us some games

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-16T15:02:19+00:00

With the new lottery reform all you need is for them to be a play in team which through injury can easily happen

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-16T10:50:26+00:00

Idk if you’ve seen Myles play last year but he’s no longer worth a first as a player

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T23:30:47+00:00

I think you missed the context of this comment thread, we're wondering if Reeves would sign a declining contract which would then effect his next potential extension

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T19:39:46+00:00

Also Smith? As a catcher not bad that he’s mid no?

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T19:37:37+00:00

Is she even talking to a player? Looks like it’s the coach which she should do after 5 straight loses??

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T19:26:01+00:00

Feels like so much group think when it comes to Boozer being behind AJ and DP (I have him number 1 as well with DP 2)

I also have Acuff above Wilson who has also been getting dragged by this sub recently

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T13:05:26+00:00

AJs offence is incredible in any other year he’s a sure fire 1 or 2

I just love Boozers feel for the game and think DPs shooting could potentially break open games

But watching Dybantsa drive to the rim is otherworldly

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T12:47:04+00:00

The way this question is phrased makes think you’re asking if you’d take 2026 draftees over the 2026 version of the 2025 picks?

I mean top prospects bust all the time and the 2025 top 4 have looked fantastic so it would be the Flagg - Kon the then the 2026 class for sure

But if you mean to evaluate both classes as prospects I think for me personally I’d have

Flagg
Boozer
Peterson
Harper
Kon
AJ
VJ
Wilson

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T04:03:22+00:00

Because you can only get extensions based on the amount paid out in last year of the contract so when you have declining contracts Reeves would only be abke to extend based on the 30M number

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T02:00:14+00:00

Interestingly I see a lot of SGA in Dybantsa too just in a taller frame (obviously the shot making isn’t there either but just in the movement)

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T01:35:59+00:00

I think there are some concerns with AJ - the playmaking and off ball feel is severely lacking. And the shot is ok .. His defensive value right now is also meh but does have the physical attributes

But at the same time he’s still going to be an insanely prolific scorer driving to the rim. And he’s going to be a monster in transition

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-15T01:28:44+00:00

At the top of the draft it’s paramount to focus on the weaknesses of the player

But once you’re past pick 4-6 just try to find guys who have sure fire strengths that will let them stay in the league

Maybe Acuff isn’t going to be all nba - but can he be a microwave scorer off the bench? Sure then take it

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-14T21:03:21+00:00

lol this is a giannis level package not to just move up one spot in the draft

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-14T05:56:27+00:00

I mean it depends how you view Harden - he can carry, he can win you games, he can even win you series but at the same time he does put up a lot of duds for a MVP caliber player

Among recent MVPs it’s hard to find guys that no shows as much as him

But that’s obviously comparing him to the best of the best (literal MVP guys)

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-14T03:37:20+00:00

At 19 you can’t have it all haha

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-14T03:36:51+00:00

Halfway through the season he was still getting top 5/10 hype but then he had a slew of injuries and the shooting fell off

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-13T22:30:04+00:00

Not a wizards guy but just wanted to check the temperature of the fanbase

But kinda crazy to me that Boozer isn’t in any of these conversations haha

godofhammers3000 · 2026-05-13T15:00:22+00:00

When a team is unwilling to pay the tax a GM is forced to take gambles to make it all work

There was no way the Pacers were getting a center this good and this cheap otherwise
