package him get him out of here. I want collins & crawford to play more minutes. No room for a 5-5 SG/mascot on this team. I can live with Francis as 6th man if we can't trade him but there's absolutely no room for Nate

yeah, exactly, can Francis live with being a 6th man?
This is the same francis that couldn't live with getting 35 minutes a game in orlando.

If anything, there is no room for Francis, unless he wants to be the highest paid sixth man in nba history.

I'm trying to figure out how Collins isn't exactly what nate needs to allow him to play the point............ then on top of that we can live with waiting out francis' 48 million contract but we got to get rid of nates 6 million dollar deal. LOL, is there anymore wisdom????


I think isiah will wnt to play ten players so Marbury, Crawford, Q, Nate, Collins, Balkman can probably stay....... Francis needs to go. Like now!!! Won't mind q getting traded either.

Honestly, with the team we have, trading Nate should be a priority. If we traded Nate and Francis to make room for Collins, I wouldn't mind the Collins pick at #29 as much (still don't like the Balkman pick at #20).
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

I would rather have Nate than Francis any day. Who are our guards? Nate's a bit retarded but he plays hard, he's coachable, he's tough. He dives on the floor, hustles and while maybe not a true run the offense type PG he's a playmaker for sure. Nate's young and hungry.

Collins *might* be as good as Eric Snow.

No one is untradeable- Isiah has proved that.

The question is getting value back.

Nate is young and cheap and on the rise. He might only ever be a 6th man type player off the bench, but he will win games for us.

Francis needs to get his value back- I think firing LB helps because other GMs might think- typical LB, in love with other players, then hates his own. Thus, loss of value for Francis is the result of LB, not Francis being exposed as overrated, overpaid & malcontent...

trade Francis... keep Nate... put Nate & Balkman together coming off the bench, & you have 2 high strung high energy guys who can change the momentum of a game instantly (according to the reports on Balkman i've read)

NO WAY!! Nates a game changer and a great competitor. He is only going to get better with time. If we do trade him ,in 3yrs you will be very sorry. Patience.
fishmike 9/27/2024 11:00 PM Ug I hate this. The idea of Towns is great until you see what a pussy he is. Jules is a dog. DD was a flamethrower locked up cheap for 3 more years. First Leon move I hate

Trade the one guy with some toughness who gives his heart and soul AND is super talented and athletic. Mmmmmmmm, let me think about that, aaaaaaah NO.

Mardy Collins is the perfect backcourt mate for a player like Nate.
