Daniel Gibson: Thug Angel

[Mdog1]

If we can get a first round pick for him then imho you absolutely have to do it. That said, I don't believe he's the type of person you trade just to trade because of his commitment to the organization. He truly loves this team, and it shows. If the best we could get would be a second round pick, and some salary for him then I say keep him around. If we could get a pick in the early 20's for him i'd personally pull the trigger.

I like Boobie, and I always have. Won't be mad either way tbh.

[Dr. Gymbo]

The big thing for me against Boobie is that he can NEVER stay healthy consistently.

As with Andy, all depends on the return, but I would hate to lose him for nothing. These guys can say all the right things about wanting to stay here, but we should know better than to believe any of them at this point.

I'm probably in the minority opinion on this, but as long as the price is right, I say let him stay as long as he likes.

Thing is, I dont see us getting a 1st round pick back for him, so i have to agree that i dont see a need to trade him.

[Doc Shakalou]

I don't see us acquiring anything more valuable than him in a trade. You can always use a 3 point specialist off the bench, his D isn't half bad either.

I'd put it in his contract that he gets docked $1k everytime he dribbles.

I pretty much agree. The only way we are getting anything of real value back is if we take on some salary for him, which is not unlikely knowing our owner. It would be very comparable to what we got for Sessions minus the right to swap.

I would say Sessions value was a lot higher. If b00bie was a typical PG or SG then more teams would want him.

It made me laugh when they mentioned Pargo and Sloan in that article. Like those guys arent shit. Boobie is a scrappy defender and hits 3s at league leading percentages. I think for a team looking for a last piece to their puzzle its worth a 1st, but ima Boobie ont get us much

I can understand why trading Andy, despite the love for him, makes sense. I mean, you're looking at potential lottery picks, young talent, etc. And it's still a tough call. But honestly, what are you going to get from trading Boobie? A first round pick? Maybe we can use it to draft a decent guard who can come off the bench and shoot threes/play good perimeter defense!

I can understand why it might sound like a good idea... building assets, etc, etc, but it seems like trading someone just for the sake of trading him. You're either going to get equal, or worse return for him.

Also, defensively, he's everything I want Kyrie to be. Not a lock down defender, but his effort on the defensive end proves that anybody with decent conditioning/quickness/athleticism can play effervescent NBA defense, giving Kyrie no excuses.

No team is giving up a 1st for Boobie.

Boobie's main value is his contract tbh. He's at best a stop gag for a team until the end of the season, and then he expires.

For example (just an example, not an actual trade idea).

Hedo's remaining two years for Boobie, and Walton, and Orlando sends us one of those picks they got from Denver/Philly.

That would be a pretty good return for Boobie, and Walton.

[SRStark20]

I don't want Boobie or Andy going anywhere unless we get that offer that would make us look completely stupid to pass up.

They're both Cavaliers. I want them to stay that way.

This is pretty much the way I view it. Don't trade anyone just to trade them, but if a deal comes along that makes it worth our time then you do it.

I mean, a team gave up a 1st for Jiri Welsch once upon a time, if I'm not mistaken...

... which in turn became Rajon Rondo, IIRC...
