this was a STEAL for the Braves... Miller projects as a solid, mid-rotation starter or even a #2 if you’re feeling optimistic but for 3 years of team control of that player that the Braves got 6 years of the first overall pick in last years draft Dansby Swanson, a guy who projects as star (top 20 prospect in baseball)…
This is such a classic TLR fuck prospects type of move. And it will probably work out for him.
Cameron estimates the Braves won this trade by over $100M in value, that’s one of the most lopsided trades in recent memory.
The Sixers have been tanking for a fucking decade. And they’re not even signing NBA players. AND ownership is collecting fat checks from revenue sharing AND the regular TV deal without putting even the remotest product on the court.
The main difference between what the Braves are doing and “The Process” is that the Braves are getting actual, physical human prospects - and highly-rated ones at that- in return. The Sixers are just hoarding draft picks and hoping to win the lottery.
Swanson was a great get for the Braves especially since he’s from Kennesaw, GA. he’ll be a draw for that new ballpark even though the team itself will be awful.
I mean, he doesn’t take a beating the way Allen Iverson took a beating, but that’s because Iverson’s outside shooting percentage was horrible and he no choice but to drive the lane. Steph can do either...whereever they give him room, he takes it and scores. Because he can score from anywhere, he has zero incentive to…
Maybe I’m wrong.
Curry gets mauled every game and almost never gets calls. But you should go back and watch some old games. I did this recently and the 80s and 90s had terrible basketball. Horrible empty possessions ending in post up ISO bricks.
Look how fucking fast he gets that shot off! They don’t have time to hit him.
