TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[dynamicalVoid]

1) Hes already grabbing at his back as if there is a lingering issue.  He still played the remainder of that game and played vs us...so whatever it was is not serious I suppose.

2) He got publicly humiliated and came back looking worse.  Rust?  Back issues?  Playing Possum?

3) Hes missed numerous easy baskets.  Needs time to knock rust off?  Ok...how long?  Draw the line in the sand.

4) Was passed a ball in the middle of a wide open lane...didnt even turn around to see if there was a clear lane to the basket for an easy layup(there was) and kicked out to perimeter.

5) Already witnessed him bring the ball up court all the way to the top of the key and not a single player on the other team guarding him and Simmons picked up his dribble and passed the ball.

6) Casual scout review on him: He seems uninterested. 

So many Red Flags.  

I would not trade for this guy unless you think you have to strike now or miss out on a player you think you can rehab.  Preferably...you wait and see if he knocks rust off and shows you something and then trade for him before TDL.
