Re: Paul George or Loul Deng
[QUOTE=Graviton]Tonight in their matchup...
Paul George - 21 points on 42% shooting, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, 2 block, 2 personal fouls.
LOL Deng - 13 points on 4-18 shooting, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 5 personal fouls.
This should end the discussion, Deng is one of the most overrated and underperforming players in the league, can't shoot, create his own shot, dribble. Gets payed like a superstar (close to 14 million) just to be a role player, play his overrated defense and brick everything from outside the paint.
George is payed 2.5 million, he completely destroyed Deng on both ends of the floor tonight and wasn't a foul machine while playing defense.
But obviously Deng stans will keep defending him while he keeps having performances like this every other game. It's just sad how overhyped a barely Top 15 SF can be nowadays. Bulls gotta trade him before he costs them in the playoffs for a 3rd straight time.[/QUOTE]
I voted that George was the better player, but to be fair. The Bulls are missing 3/5th of their starters. Not to mention Boozer is just coming back from the hamstring injury.
George had the luxury of West, Hill, Hibbert drawing attention from him.
But overall, I'd still take George.

Except nobody is pressuring Deng, he has no offensive game to be taken seriously. If he is so bad at doing things by himselfs, why da **** is he getting 14 million? That's freaking superstar money, a SF getting that and being so underwhelming is horrible.
Bulls FO just ****ed up, they are giving close to 30 million just for Boozer's/Deng's vanishing acts and inconsistency, that's killing cap space. They HAVE to trade Deng while his value is high, there are NUMEROUS SFs better than him that will fit even more under Thibs and Rose.

Re: Paul George or Loul Deng
In the evaluation of Deng's recent play you can't simply disregard the number of minutes he's been logging lately in a depleted frontcourt.
He's a great player though.

Care to tell me how we can get a better SF? If he's so bad, how the hell are we supposed to get this gem? You don't seem to understand how damn hard it will be to get an upgrade from Deng.
Edit: I was in the Rudy Gay camp for a minute. Then a fellow Bulls fans schooled me on his advanced stats, and they're damn near identical, except Deng plays better defense.

I agree, I like Deng...He's playing a ton of minutes and he doesn't have anyone other than Boozer to take the pressure off of him.
Also, its not his fault Rose got injured and he had to take on a different role..I feel he is doing the best he can...

Yea, he is a great player, just massively overrated for his contract.
And btw if he WASN'T logging so many minutes, his stats would be even more underwhelming and he would never make the all-star team.
You can have a lot better SF for that price that can actually take pressure off Rose offensively and play just as good defense.
Just off top of my head you got Batum, Parsons, AK-47, Leonard, Gallo, Iggy, Gay, Granger, George.
Then when you add the superstar SFs Deng barely cracks the Top 15, yet he is payed like a superstar and selected to the all-star team. :oldlol:
Cmon man, if you put your feelings aside, you will realize Deng is not gonna help you vs elite teams in the playoffs. He already disappeared two straight years, he shrinks when it matters most just like Boozer, and no one respects him offensively. Teams will just double-triple Rose and force Deng to make them pay, but he will just keep bricking wide open shots like usual.

That's Gay in crappy Memphis offense that uses 4 different guys randomly, watch Gay's production with Raptors and their younger, more athletic players. With Rose, Butler, Gibson, Noah, Gay will be much better. And he has the athletic tools to be better defensively under Thibs.

Again. Explain to me how we can get Gay, Iggy, George, Batum??? I left off whoever isn't better than Deng.
Granger is straight up not better than Deng. He's a worse Rudy Gay.
Don't you think every Bulls fan would want an upgrade over Deng? Just like any fan would want an upgrade over therer 2nd or 3rd best player. Problem is, it's not easy.

In Memphis, he does what he always does. Iso ball, with 2 7 footers taking a lot of attention off of him. Wait til they get about 6-7 games deep, and tell me how great his stats look in Toronto.

He is getting max money to be a role player, THAT'S THE POINT.
If he is "doing best he can" by shooting 30% from outside the paint, providing mediocre production for the minutes played while getting superstar money, then wtf is the point? We can get other players that can provide more than "doing his best". If his role doesn't include actually scoring when his team needs it most, wtf is he there for? His "defense" that won't actually stop any star or change the dynamic of the game?

No, I understand all of this...I don't understand why you seem to hate "him" so much. You show a lot of anger in your posts towards him...I could see if he was a bad teammate or a lazy player or something. Im just saying, I agree with your assessment but without all the anger...If you're not angry, then my bad...

I am just pissed lot of Bulls fans ignore his bad games (which is every 2nd/3rd game) and act like he is some unreplacable part of the team that can't be traded. Dude disappears often and puts up mediocre production, problem is he gets superstar money.
It's like what I used to hear about Perkins, "He is a great defender! Good locker room guy!" But at least OKC fans realized he is an overrated black hole. Deng isn't as bad, but his contract to production ratio is still pretty bad. And his defense is pretty much useless against stars in the playoffs, he doesn't know how to bother them or be physical. He lets them get in a rhythm.

[QUOTE=nathanjizzle]first off i called you a dumb monkey because obviously you are one, i dont call all blacks dumb monkeys, your only a dumb monkey if you act like once such as yourself. 2nd i only talk shit about your neighborhood because you talked shit about mine. you do think your tough because you stated your self you would "come to the suburb" with your brothers and woop my ass. sorry i would never get faded by a ****** that would need his brothers to come with him to a fight. No, not everyone has the capacity to do so, check the drunks that have nothing to do all day cept stand by the liqour store and throw trash in the parking lot, i would know i worked in englewood for 3 years.
and by the way, how is your logic serving you as we speak? loul deng vs paul george, guess i was right, you have a poor basketball opinion

You said, "Cabrini Green monkeys."
Don't back pedal.
Either way my point still stands. Youre a suburban punk who calls blacks monkeys behind your screen but would bitch up in front of real brothers from the greens or Englewood. When you worked there I bet you were quiet as a church mouse.
Then you sign your name Sosa?
You gotta be the lamest.:facepalm
*you point to ONE GAME while Deng has a career of work. Trading him after you've invested so much in him and after he has played for us hurt would not sit well with Noah and Rose Is imagine. You have to think of chemistry and the team.....this ain't 2k.

Re: Paul George or Loul Deng
MWP >>>> Paul Gearge and Loul Deng combined..
But I dont mind trading Metta for either one of them for opponent team improvement.. Lakers doesnt have much competition right now so trading our 5th best player for scrub is not a big deal if it can help other team to compete.. Both will benefit from Kobe System big time.. Even scrub can be an all star caliber while playing the system just like what happened to Earl Clark.. But I think our management are not stupid enough to make this deal.. What will Lakers gain from this trade? Adding another scrub just to make the game more competitive?? Maybe..:confusedshrug: Coz watching a competitive game is more exciting than with no competition.. Agree?
