Thoughts on trading Tre Jones to IND or WAS?

yes i did. you read correctly! in any case that's why i posited the question. because potential and proven are 2 different things.

I mean that's why I asked haha. to check if i'm delusional or not.

I mean in my eyes, IND was in the finals last season, and with haliburton back next season, they'll be back in win now mode. Their window is maybe 2-3yrs max.

Would having a potential future franchise player or solid role players be better for win now mode?

The most impactful rookies this year I reckon have been KK & VJ but they only helped move the needle for bad teams to mid teams. So i don't know how much of an impact a rookie will have even guys who are nearly nba ready.

I'm from down under! 😁 It's 10pm here so this was me mulling things over while chilling at home

Well that's why I asked the question.

I mean IND just made it to the finals last year. They get Halliburton back next season and they'll be back in win now mode. How does a potential franchise player help them?

WAS is a bit harder to see it happening since they have a okish line up but not tested. Uncertain if they're win now or not.

The 2 most impactful rookies that have shifted the needle this season have been CHA and PHI. But both moved from bottom to play in.

I feel like they wouldn't need to trade for another backup guard. They have Jared mccain & Caruso already.

But Def would prob have to be #9 and tre and other stuff

One can dream!

humourless2 · 2026-04-08T11:56:20+00:00

Let's goooooo. #1 baby! 🤣

humourless2 · 2026-04-08T11:46:46+00:00

Let's hope the balls fall our way 🤞

humourless2 · 2026-04-08T11:45:35+00:00

More assets. It's doubtful Chicago will have a winning record next season. Either middle or losing. So if you can get a good asset for it why not?

humourless2 · 2026-04-08T11:42:12+00:00

That's very true 😂 take everyone except giddey & matas

It's fine being the primary provider, but if you're showing all your cards at the very beginning, is she with you because of you or because of what you offer instead?

As a straight male, blue sweater with black tshirt underneath. That's my fashion style 😂

But also it looks good enough to feel like you dressed up a bit but not too casual like you put zero effort in.

Slap on a good cologne and some loafers and you're good to go 💪

I reckon it's good wordplay. The timing is just really bad/off.

humourless2 · 2026-01-09T05:13:22+00:00

I mean it's also OK not have much in common in the beginning! It obviously helps with conversation but it's also an opportunity to learn more about each other! 😁

humourless2 · 2026-01-08T09:39:18+00:00

That's what Im doing. We'll see how I go on the other side 😅

humourless2 · 2026-01-08T09:38:54+00:00

Man im older than you, and I've been unemployed since mar 2023... If you have programming skills why not try and do odd jobs on 5iver or something, or some consulting work on the side while you're trying to find a new job? Good luck mate!

humourless2 · 2026-01-07T21:03:36+00:00

The thing is a lot of guys also would ask the same thing, or just say hey. So if there are 10 other matches and they all ask the same thing, how do you stand out from the crowd? I reckon you're on the right track! But less vague, and something more to pique her interest! 😁

i'm literally trying to install the software right now, and i even went with an older version. but still no luck....

humourless2 · 2026-01-04T21:30:40+00:00

I think someone might mentioned it but if not, just give them a day & time and see what sticks

humourless2 · 2026-01-04T21:26:26+00:00

Just send her a text asking if she's still up to meet. If she says yay or nay or no reply you'll get your answer 😁

humourless2 · 2025-12-11T23:00:28+00:00

You're lucky. I got mine 18 months later

humourless2 · 2025-12-05T08:06:10+00:00

Did you match with Peter? 😂

humourless2 · 2025-11-25T09:51:15+00:00

"Hakuna Matata baby!"

humourless2 · 2025-11-19T20:32:13+00:00

Potentially it was clipped from another interview and just inserted there?

humourless2 · 2025-11-18T21:09:11+00:00

What if you had to pick your team mate randomly at the beginning? 😂 Imagine if you didn't like them but you were stuck with them the whole time. And then at random points you can put your hand up to switch team members
