If he knew we would have the front line we have today, I think he would.

Negative. I think he loves the blue collar work ethic players who are also fundamental and I also think Nate drives Larry to the brink of insanity sometimes. He plays his rear off but he makes a ton of mistakes and all that prolly kill Larry. I think LB would have loved KT. I'm not so sure what he thinks of Q-Rich, but he sure is a good rebounder.

Probably not, but then again, Larry isn't going to be coaching this team 5 years from now when Q and Nate are really hitting their stride and KT is working in some team's front office.

Question should be whether Larry would trade KT for Q and first round pick. I say yes, especially since KT wasn't a great post player nor intimidator on defense.

Not according to what LB has been saying about Nate. He loves the dude.

I don't know if he makes that trade or not but IMHO I think KT is much more of a Larry Brown player than either Q or Nate. Look at how big a part McDyess was on last year's Pistons team.

Nate is going to drive LB crazy. You know how hard he is on PG's and Nate is so far from the old school PG that LB wants. Plus Nate's penchant for showboating is going to grate on Larry much sooner than later.

If larry was here, and we had eddie, I think no on that trade.

Maybe we don't even draft Channing for that matter.

Larry needs a solid point (Nate is a sg) and a pure shooter.

Too much to speculate on who was available and who was not. But Larry keeps KT or trades him for other needs.

Yeah, I think this is spot on.

Yes, most people know that KT isn't that good.

man.. look at the rebounding problems, KT would be the perfect PF next to Curry.

Even though I think KT would be the right fit for this group we still havent seen Q and what he can or cant do, so I'm waiting and sticking with what we have.

Anyone remember that game a couple years ago when we had a big lead at home against the Clippers and we blew it? Anyone remember how is was Q and MAggette (mostly Q) who EVERY time down the floor would post Houston or Spree and just score on them at will in the post?

Wait till Q is healthy and his hammy is good. I think people will be pretty impressed with what he brings to the table. Another thing about Q: 22 times last year he had 8 rebounds or more in a game. I'm pretty excited to see him when he's got his legs under him

love you guys but can't stomach any nostalgia for kt. IMO it was so tiem to say goodbye to him. we would kept dragging his old ass out to the center position and never would have finally addressed our needs there and we wouldn't be developing frye and lee at the 4. goodbye and good luck to kt and keep your scoring under 15 ppg!!

amen. we're building something completely new. I don't want to see Lee buried behind KT. I'd like to see Lee learn to be the new KT who can jump. And Frye to take KT's role on offense.

i agree with that. i wouldve done that trade 100/100 times myself, and i would also start frye at PF and let them grow
