MCW On trade bloc (espn)

[saltlover]

He's not on the block.

He's been in the block since at least last June.  Everyone knows it, including MCW.

He's no more "on the block" than every single player on the Celtics (Smart, Sully, Oly, Bradley, etc).

They are open to moving him if they get a few 1sts or an established superstar, but they aren't actively seeking a trade destination for a 23 year old rich man's Rajon Rondo.  He's a productive young player that plays a position of need.  Why would they trade him?

Maybe because they don't view him as part of their future.

A rich man's Rondo? Stop trolling

He is a worse shooter , distributor , defender than Rondo ever was .

There was a lot of talk that he developed a lot of bad habits (stat padding being the most notable). There is also a lot of question of how much he'll actually improve considering he's already 23 and isn't the most athletic of players.

Is he?

Dunno if that's true. 

Career averages of 16 points, 6.6 assists, 6.3 rebounds, 1.7 steals on 40%/26%/67% shooting

What was Rondo doing in his second season? ... 10.6 points, 5.1 asssits, 4 rebounds, 1.7 steals, 49%/26%/61% ... but keep in mind this was with near prime version of KG, Pierce and Ray drawing attention.   The year prior on a Phily-like bottomfeeder, Rondo shot 41% and 21%  6.4 points, 3.8 assissts, 3.7 rebounds, 1.6 steals.

I think between year 2 MCW vs Year 2 Rondo, I go with MCW. 

Anyways...MCW isn't actually available.  "The Sixers will want multiple first-round draft picks for MCW"... much ado about nothing.

Here's what one writer speculated:

http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on-basketball/24962190/the-sixers-trouble-with-trading-michael-carter-williams

So the Sixers are stuck to a degree. But then, if Boston feels Marcus Smart is a future 2-guard (and they're playing Evan Turner at point right now for crying out loud), then they have the picks to spare. It's whether MCW fits their style, and that's a big question mark.

Other than that, there's the idea of adding him as a reserve. But what team gives up mulitiple picks or assets to acquire a backup point guard?

Tell you what, I'll give em a couple late 1sts and Sully if they want to throw in Nerlens Noel.

[PickNRoll]

I can't speak for Philly, but if I were them I'd trade him.  Maybe there's still a little luster on that ROY trophy?  His numbers are fool's gold.  He can't shoot now and shows no sign of improving there.  His impact on games is nowhere close to prime Rondo, although his numbers show him being ahead of where Rondo was at the same age.  PG's are a dime a dozen.

Yuck.  I do NOT want  MCW or Noel on this team.  I wouldn't trade Sully straight up for both of them (in strict basketball terms).

Yea I know he has only played a few games but Noel has looked awful whenever I have seen him (like a high schooler or hasheem thabeet)

You can't be serious. Both players individually probably have more value than Sullinger.

He's not on the block.

Ive read that he is on the block several times this year.  I believe that Chad Ford mentioned just that in his chat today.

I think Noel has more value than Sullinger.

Maybe all of the Okafor talk is BS, and they really have their eyes set on Mudiay.

Would you give them:

Boston's 2015 First Round Pick
Brooklyn's 2016 First Round Pick
Jared Sullinger

For

MCW & Noel ??
