One season with Boston and part of this year with Philly. On July 15, 2019, Poirier parted ways with Baskonia to sign a contract with the Boston Celtics.On November 19, 2020, Poirier was traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder for a conditional future second-round pick. On December 8, Poirier, along with Danny Green and Terrance Ferguson, were traded to the Philadelphia 76ers.https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/p/poirivi01.htmlWell, here's the center you've been coveting, Facil. Yup. He completely makes the deal for me. Upgrade at wing from Iggy to Fergie while relieving guard glut and adding a skilled and nasty big man, all while acquiring another draft pick. Leon Rose is a beast. We might not be done playing third party and picking up loose change.

One write-up noted that of the 24 players who have guarded 200 or more shots at the rim (within 5'), Vuc was 20th giving up 63.4% FG. So I followed the link:Nerlins at 52.5% is 8th of 24, a hair ahead of Gobert and a smidge behind Embiid.Dead last is Kanter offering up 69% FG.

They are definitely better and more fun to watch. I give them a lot of credit for having gotten that far already. There’s still a lot more building left to go.“As constructed” doesn’t mean no more building. Just means the materials for the build are mostly in place. I am including the near-future picks in my assessment and maybe a minor free agent or two with cap. In other words ... no trades. Except the ones Brock Aller deems prudent for the balance sheet.No tradesReal smartSo the players you are adding in the draft and free agency just either sit the bench or send current players there, rather than get assets back for them?Or are you going 12-13 deep next year?Trades deemed cap wise by Aller- Yes. Like a trade of a player we don’t want on the cap for a less expensive player or a future pick.Trades where we send out picks to make a playoff push - No.

Quote from: facilitatorn on March 23, 2021, 10:06:05 PMDerrick has to build himself back up and play himself back in. Give him a minute. Meanwhile Elf was back and the big three of Barrett, Burks, and Randle carried us through behind a monster Randle night and a vintage Mitch night and key contributions from Reggie and IQ. These guys won’t be feeling friendly when we see them again. The trick will be beating them without it rising to the level of a brawl.I'm not sure they care all that much.It was really nice to have an easy and relaxed game for a change 😊
