Diallo is a younger version of Burks and Noel plays a little D but with Duren, Bagley and Stewart we don’t need another offensively challenged big. Burks is a vastly superior player to Diallo, my guy. Methinks you're underselling him entirely way too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just dumped the rest of our cap space on a back up SG and a C who shouldn’t get minutes on a young team. Burks might be ok, but he isn’t good enough for that contract or to take on Noel. Yes he is lol What exactly do you think you're getting in the modern NBA for $10m? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe on a good team. On a young team give me the the young player with upside to the older guy averaging 11 a game. He isn’t good enough to flush cap space down the drain. I’d rather we just signed Brunson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We took on Noel’s contract as well simply to get Burks. He isn’t that good to pay 10 and take on another 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burks will provide more value for your team than Diallo ever will. Diallo is an entire bag of nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will work out similarly. it’s like last year when we spent money on Olynyk. I get Diallo is trash to but this just doesn’t do it for me. Such an underwhelming offseason other than the draft.

Take on Noel and Kemba too and you can have him. If Burks came in free agency and if we didn’t have the other dumb contracts it would be ok. But taking on other junk just for him is stupid. He isn’t special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
