Like everyone else, I can't help but get caught up in the trade rumors this year. The Miles/RLEC situation has me convinced that deadline day KP is going to bring in the 4th building block of this team. Most important addition since Buck Williams!
Here is my problem... I don't know enough about players on other teams to really know if they are a good fit or not. Wouldn't it be nice to have a thread to go to, in order to learn about each player's strengths, weaknesses, potential fit, availability, etc. Then we can really go crash the ESPN Trade Machine site.
So here is a chance for that thread. Do not post rumors or potential trades, or silly comments. This should be an information source on players only!
For the sake of consistency, use the following format.
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Team fit:
Culture fit:
Injury history:
Availability:
The idea is to be as specific as possible. Instead of just saying good on offense, bad on defense, include information on offense (such as shooting/location, court awareness, passing, protecting the basketball, dribble penetration, back to the basket,) defense (post up, perimeter, help, rebounding, etc.). Essentially I want to utilize all your talents as scouts (or what you read scouts write about players).
Only post a player once, then reply with any additional information to fill in gaps or contest an observation.
