If mikal bridges can net 5 picks, what you think Murphy can get

I think Dumars hangs up the phone unless they essential give a shit ton of picks. But it's also Dumars who will probably just say ok for a pack of gum

Thats not how the league works and things eventually reset themselves

Holland is essentially first round value and say you get 2 additional unprocted first round picks....thats not bad

This is interesting right here

Im a huge Trey Murphy fan and think he can really help a good team go to the next level....but I do think he gets a bit overrated at times as far an on ball 2nd option type and his defense isnt what people think it is either


Idk....but I kind of feel like like he should be the 3rd or 4th option on a team instead of a 2nd

Im fascinated to see whar he looks like outside of New Orleans

i think he is a legit no. 2, but to your point, other teams appear to have some sort of 1-2 punch already so he may just default to the 3rd option and depending on the team, that's not the worst position to be in.

And as someone who has watched practically every game since he was drafted, he probably still has one more small leap left to be even better than he was this past season. It seemed like he and queen were able to develop some nice chemistry once people started cheating the play and he would go back door or drift off into an open area for Queen to find him.
 
but i dont wanna cloud this this thread about murphy. We can continue this in the NBA thread or not...up to ya'll

Well let me ask

Is Trey Murphy that much better than Mikal bridges coming off his year with the nets?

Bridges looks crazy right now but at the time I think Bridges showed better two way ability and on ball ability


Trey Murphy is an excellent shooter and pretty good in transition....but Im not sure what else he does at a high level to be treated like that

it's cool b
 
I think Trey Murphy and Mikal might be in the same tier ultimately with Trey having a higher ceiling obviously due to age

But Trey we don’t know for sure how good he is because he’s a good player on a bad team and those guys put up numbers that go down on better teams

Trey wouldn’t do what Mikal is not doing these playoffs though
 
I don’t know what kind of Sunken Place Angel Reese got Duren in, but I need the spirit of Ben Wallace/Rodman/Mahorn to possess that nigga tonight.
