Why do you guys want to trade DP? Isn?t it obvious that Luka loves playing him. He not only provides the best screens for Luka but he also is an easy 4 assists on his lob and dunks? When Luka drives, DP will sometimes just hang around down there and Luka uses him as a screen. Does DP shoot from the three? No, but that?s not his game.

Yes, Dwight Powell not nailing threes is totally our issue with him. Nailed it.

This feels like sarcasm.

He?s fine as a 10 mpg guy coming off near the end of the bench.

Its not. Yes. He will have some bad games but he will also have 22pt games like he had with tge Wizards. I think people are hating too much on DP but when he is gone, people will miss his hustle, his attitude and his alley oop dunks.

Yes, his occasional 2 alley oops dunks a game, his 6pts, 4 rebounds and zero assists per game will be sorely missed. Like, how will we function? There's no way to replace that kind of production.

He didn't get any of those dunks in the playoffs last years because he's unplayable in the post season

How quickly some fans forget how bad he looked vs Phoenix and Golden St last year and the previous year vs the Clippers.

Fuch those alley oop dunks in the regular season that shit gets taken away in the post season.

I think you're right.

Do I hang up if he's brought up in trades? No.
Do I think he's a net negative I'd pay someone to take off our hands? Also no.

He's got the good atittude of Boban while occasionally being able to play some really solid minutes. Starter? No. Decent mix-it-up backup? Yes.
