Jrue Holiday Appreciation Thread

[Capn'O]

Man, I really have to give credit to Cronin. My excitement for this season was at a D a week ago. Like a C+ after the Dame trade, but I’m full on A-level stoked to see what this team is now! Basically created a whole team in like a week and a team with actual talent and players on it that seems, on paper, to make a TON of sense together.

I wonder, if Cronin packaged a number of the picks they’ve just got and Brogdon, if that could finally get OG from Toronto? It’s Masai, so the likely answer there is no, but man, what a killer balanced team this would be…

Scoot/Mays
Simons/Sharpe
OG/Thybulle
Grant/Walker
Ayton/Williams

That team, with being healthy, could be a surprise top 6 team in the west.

Masai has been a real wildcard lately. I don't know wtf he's doing aside from maybe he thinks long forwards are pokemon.

He's playing games listening to offers knowing he's gonna say no before anyone speaks. I wouldn't blame anyone for blacklisting him at this point his asking prices are simply offensive. I'm not convinced he would have done og + trent for Dame straight up in the event portland was that stupid

If Boston plays Milwaukee and they’re healthy I think they clear them. Would look weird to see you lose to the guy they traded away for you. Boston had to get Jrue to help with Dame in a potential matchup. That’ll be fun to watch he did amazing against him in 2018

He is used to ripping everyone off but most of the league has gotten smarter.

Knicks were trying to get OG too. In the past he would have gotten what he wanted from us but his ask was outrageous and we walked away.

It’s fun the Blazers basically help craft the early path for an entire conference in like the last 5 days of September.
