My offer for Anthony Davis from the Warriors

[QUOTE=ImKobe;15044718]Sabonis is not a 3PT Shooter lol. That's what I'm saying. You think because someone who takes 1 three per game on average and shoots maybe 35-40% on them can take 5 of those and still hit them at the same rate, that's not really how it works. With AD you have to respect his shot because he actually will take the open middy or even the open 3 while Sabonis would pass out of it. AD isn't a good 3PT shooter but when he did shoot them quite a bit from the corner in 2020-23 in both the RS & Playoffs he'd hit them at an above 40% rate (when at least 25% of his 3PA were from corners in the POs, and 16-17% in the RS which was a huge increase from NO to LA) so there's something. Volume is low but apparently to you it doesn't matter anyway.

I'll take the guy who had Playoff runs of lighting it up from mid-range & 3 vs. someone who doesn't have much Playoff experience who has never shot jump shots at a decent volume in his life and who can't really defend that well, so why would you add another passive scorer who doesn't shoot much next to Draymond? That makes even less sense dude.[/QUOTE]

You are assuming he would play the same role. He isnt open on the kings. He is the main man. He would be open with butler and curry on the floor. If he is open he will shoot. Unlike davis he can hit perimeter shots, play center, get out of his street clothes, be happy with a role as 3rd option...

Sabonis is absolutely not the main man on the Kings. He's 3rd in usage and gets assisted on 73% of his shots. He's not creating shit.

Also on wide open shots (closest defender 6+ feet away), Sabonis is shooting 16.7% from 3PT. [B]Keep in mind he only attempts 1.8 3PT FGAs per game, and 1.6 of them fall into this "wide open" category.[/B]

Why don't you just admit you have no freaking clue what you're talking about?

Im not the one that apparently has never seen the warriors play. They screen. They pass. They move without the ball. They take good shots. Sabonis fits perfectly. Davis otoh is another guy fighting butler for the ball and the mid range. Is it 1980 again?

You were proven completely wrong about Sabonis' shooting, and you're still yapping?

The thing is I'm not even a fan of Davis. I could really care less. Sabonis is just very clearly not that great to everyone except you. Regardless of our disagreement on what you think of him overall, you're very clearly wrong about his 3PT shooting.

Proof that davis is a vetter fit than sabonis? How?

He plays great defense, something that the Warriors are severely lacking right now? You can switch AD onto anyone. AD-Green-Butler is a nasty combo on defense.

The Bulls have had internal discussions about how to proceed, including conversations about Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis, sources told ESPN, whom they believe could help the team's porous rim protection and defensive interior.

ESPN

Makes sense there

[QUOTE=warriorfan;15044163]Pretty good trade for both sides. Warriors are already suicide mission all in on the last Curry years. May as well double down on it. Mavs get some assets for their rebuild with Flag[/QUOTE]

potential Giannis Sweep stakes

Give him an extension :roll:

Brian Windhorst: I don't know what the value of Anthony Davis. Some of the stuff that I have heard from executives talking to me about what they think Anthony Davis' trade value is… I'm not even going to say it because then I'd get aggregated and people would be jumping down my throat and I would just be repeating something somebody else said. When I have heard what people are saying Anthony Davis' trade value is right now, not because of him as a player, to be clear, not because he's diminished as a player, but because of the idea of paying an injury-prone mid-30s guy $50, $60 million dollars in the apron era is unpalatable.
