Otto would be nice if he were reliable. He's always going to have foot problems though. I could see them becoming way too dependent on Green and the rookie.
Cutting Frank for Pinson would drive me a little nuts too, although it might be realistic.
You don´t need to trade anything for Muscala, cause the Thunder will just waive him. He has a team option for next season. They have 15 players under contract already with three first round picks coming up.
Also why trade for such a player, when you can just sign somebody like Thomas Bryant in free agency, who does all the same things?
Would love to know whether the Mavs even inquired about him in the Porzingis trade. Seems such a no brainer move for us. I doubt it would have been a deal breaker for Washington, cause they´ll definitely lose him for nothing this summer.
I´m with you on Pinson. It would be good publicity for this corporate mess to sign a male cheerleader, cause that´s what he is.
