Why would we trade what we lack?


Our starting line up has lost every single first Q this season. In every game.


We already have a top defense mainly because of Walker + Brown pairing, if we can plug in a lethal scorer who can shoot and create plays we will be better.

If you try

PG.Nunn
SG.Walker
SF.Brown
PF.LeBron
C.Davis

The offense will be better, if the defense stays the same then you can make another improvement and plug in reaves who is by far our best offensive player by efficiency and eye test.

PG.Nunn
SG.Reaves
SF.Brown or Walker
PF.LeBron
C.Davis

That would be our best team imo, Ryan + Nunn would be lethal volume too.

You cant come off a year off and not expect your shot to be off the first few games. Remember that was preseason, ever since season started Brick took over the backup PG. We haven't seen Nunn next to Bron and AD with defenders.

When we trade him snd see him do what he did in Miami a finals team 16ppg on 38% from 3 on 5 attempts...

Nunn is not a "lethal volume" anything. And with Dennis coming back, who you could argue is a better player, Nunn is further minimized.

AD
LeBron
Brown Jr
Walker,
______, Russ

If those are our 4 starters, and Russ is 6th man (and a damn good one), someone is getting little to no mins between Beverly, Dennis and Nunn. That's still not mentioning Austin who IMO is best served as the back up 2 but forced to play the 3 bc we are playing small due to too many smaller guards. When you look at contracts, minimum dollar guys are hard to build trades around which makes Nunn the most likely trade option. I'd argue Beverly should go too if he and Nunn and bring back something good...

Hopefully he plays well

Id trade both Nunn and Beverley definitely. If Schroder can hit catch&shoot 3s and provide 2ndary playmaking and defense, he can be a solid starter. Then sing a center.

Schroder/Westbrook/Christie
Walker/Reaves/Ryan
James/Brown/JTA
Davis/wing/Gabriel
C/Bryant/Jones

Still missing some pieces

More context is needed for the bold part...what are you trying to communicate? Because it can't be what you're saying.

I think Beverly has definitely had an impact on our defensive improvement, whether it's by culture or by play, andI'd like to keep him but in reality, that expiring $13M can be useful in trades talks.

Yeah i think if there is a trade, it most probably involves him. And i think as useful aa he is, hes replacable

I hope he never gives up the starting position. I am shocked that Ham is putting him in.

Ham is a G


He knows we have 0 chance if Nunn is not firing in that starting line up..

If offense doesnt improve with this move he will have to move Reaves or Ryan in for one of walker or brown (if the defense doesnt suffer)

Nunn, like last year, looked good in pre-season, but hasn't given us anything in the actual season. The difference is last year he was off the court, this year he's on it. But the production is the same.

We have lost every single first Q this year because our starting unit cant score for (bleep). Walkef + Brown are not good shooters. Beverly not a creator, Lebron injured/tired..., you need Nunn in there.


Kind of stupid to bench your best guard and shooter


Now you see why Ham doesn't play him.

No I don't, he was a -3.. everyone was negative today. Plus as we said, he has to get the rust off. People were writing thompson off 3 months into his comeback ....

We're half NBA franchise/half physical rehab/nursing home for Klutch clients. We've gone from shipping out a Top 15 all time guy for rehabbing on company time and approaching the cliff to banking $$$ of multi-year retirement tours.

It really is. I honestly believe something is up between him and Ham. No doubt he has not played well. Hopefully he breaks out tonight. I would hate for him to continue underperforming and ultimately breaking out for another team.

That Clippers game turned Ham off. Nunn was 0-7 in 11 minutes with 5 of them being air balls. Also played horrible defense with no effort in that game.
