Not sure how bringing a monster rebounder to put next to the guy whose only redeemable skill right now is rebounding, improves your team, but hey whatevs.
It helps the rebounding even more, and Dre is more than just rebounds. That is Reggie Evans, who is pretty damn awesome.

Trading a really good shooter for a dude that's only played more than 60 games twice in five years that's also on a max contract?
Not sure what the rest of the deal would be though. I think NO gets away with robbery there.
Klay Thompson isn't a really good shooter, this is one of the most confusing things I see.

What else can Drummond do right now at an NBA level? Man defense? lol. He's extremely raw, honestly i'd just keep Monroe since he can play away from the paint around the elbow and just let Drummond do his thing down low. Whatever that becomes.
And Klay Thompson shot pretty damn well for a rookie last year. His splits have taken a dip this year though.

He's an excellent shotblocker, and he sucks up rebounds extremely well. Plus, even if he's not a great overall offensive package right now, he's smart enough on offense to maintain some degree of efficiency. Minus his free throw shooting. And he's a raw 19 year old, **** happens.
And meh, he shot OKAY for a rookie but that was his ONLY skill. He doesn't get to the line at all, he's not a good passer or rebounder, and he doesn't make a dent on defense. When that is all you can do, you better be a way better shooter than he actually is. He's a worse version of Kyle Korver with double the shot outtake.

I said aside from rebounding, you can't talk about rebounding after i already mentioned it. That's how i know you're reaching. I think he's gonna shape up to be a stud on defense, not sure about offense though. He's got a hell of an uphill battle to be decent at anything in that area. I'm not sure how much natural basketball ability and skill he can learn, regardless of how young he is.

Good luck with that. You'll be dead before you even try.

Well he grew up in New York. He has been brainwashed (By piles of cash) to the right side.
I hope we play the Knicks, because it is seeming more and more likely Rose is not coming back and that means the Bulls won't win a championship. Giving New York it's playoff pink slip will be a nice door prize.
Whether he comes back or not, I guarantee we beat the Bulls this year in the playoffs (barring any unforeseen injury) and I'm putting my posting ability in this thread on the line if they lose.
YOU'RE GOING DOWN!

Drummond's ceiling is probably Tyson Chandler, which is really good. His floor is definitely lower than that (although higher than most other thanted young players because a hyper athletic center that plays good d is quite rare) due to the ft issues and the defensive leader he would need to become, but the potential is clearly there for him to be a top 15-20 player in the NBA.

Don't see why he can't be a top 10 player in the NBA, his rookie season is basically Dwight Howard with better per minute numbers and less overall minutes (well minus the horrid FT shooting). By the way, if the Suns actually do Gortat/Tucker for Lamb/Perkins/a late first...
I don't get why it's so hard for athletic big men to succeed in the NBA. Like if you're 6 10" + and athletic, why can't you succeed? I don't get it. All you have to do is try, and youll be good. Just try.
Like seriously if youre 6 10" and athletic you should be a 10 and 10 player in the league if you just give a ****. That's all it takes. Just try and you can be 10 and 10.
Now if you learn how to like dribble a basketball you might be 16 and 10. Work on a hook shot 20 and 10.
It seriously baffles me how there's such a dirth of big men when all you have to really do is try.
