Kris Dunn is 23 actually. We need to stop treating him like a prospect. He was 22 last season, was my point. But sure, 2nd year players who didn't play much in their rookie year are finished products.

If anyone watched Favors last year, you would see that he sucked not because Gobert got better, but because he has lost athleticism and simply is too slow and untalented to play in today's NBA. If someone started a stock watch for him right now, he would go down to 75-77. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if he is benched in real life this year. He is chronic knee problems that aren't going away. This is a potential franchise-crippling move for Blake and I think he is really going to regret it 12 months from now. He would have been better off keeping Dunn and offering this cap space to Capela, Valanciunas, or someone like that. I vehemently disagree with this, and the numbers back me up; Favors produced when he got to play in the playoffs, period, end of statement! Versus the Clippers in the 2017 NBA Playoffs:Game 1: 15/6 in 32 minutes Game 2: 13/7 in 33 minutes Game 4: 17/6 in 24 minutes with 2 steals Game 7: 17/11 in 29 minutes He had a bad Game 3 and that is it. *http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/f/favorde01/gamelog/2017

But sure, 2nd year players who didn't play much in their rookie year are finished products. He is a 2nd year player who went to college for 4 years. That's the equivalent of where Fultz/Ball/Fox will be 4 years from now, and I'm pretty sure in 4 years' time we will have decided if they are going to be good or not. Anyway, I don't even know what I'm arguing in here anymore. I said Favors sucks and then I said Dunn sucks. I do support Jared's argument that Kilpatrick > Dunn and Randolph < Favors, coupled with the fact that Walt is saving ~$18m in cap makes this trade instantaneously rejectable on the basis that BKN/PHX is considered rejectable.

Both guys have some issues here, but ultimately it's fine imo. Accept.

Kilpatrick is better than Dunn. Hahahahahahahahahahaha So the Real Life Nets are the ones who hang up the phone if the Bulls call and offer Dunn for Kilpatrick? Ooooook

Think you're both crazy Kevin Hollis & Andrei KirilenkoNot the first time I've had a thought like that directed at you two though, so, holding to form! lol Likewise. I do agree the z-bo trade should go through if this does.
