re: The Official Trade Proposal Thread

Well...

We don't want him. He's dead weight to us.

So...

I get BI sucked in the playoffs but you guys have dropped this guy to be some dead weight player no one wants.

Half of the anti-BI guys are just going off mob mentality at this point. They've just been rage-posting each other into hating one of the 7-8 best players in franchise history.

Other GMs will see:
1. BI can create and score in very unique ways in the middle of the floor.
2. BI was coming off of a very scary knee injury and was likely a mixture of rusty, out of shape, and tentative on the knee. That's not a good combo when the refs are letting a defender mug you.
3. BI was not really put in a position to succeed with his lack of a consistent role.

Whether you agree with the above or not, other GMs can see that he's still a very talented scorer and will believe he can help their team. And many of them will be right.


I will close with the simple fact that 60% on middies is better for your offense and defense than 40% on 3s. Now, back to your regularly scheduled shallow-analytics rageposting.
