I’m not familiar with Rupert, but Cissoko is a guy I’ve been interested in. He’s a well built 6’6” with a 6’10” wingspan. He’s not a real good shooter, but a very good passer. He can get to the rim and is a good athlete. He’s supposed to be a very good and versatile defender. Now that we’re keeping Brogdon and trading Smart, I think Cissoko makes sense.
Check out his passing and ability to score at the rim in this highlight video.

He’s also young. He just turned 19 in April.
So Cissoko is Romeo Langford? Not a great shooter but a really good athlete and scorer. I saw a lot of people wanting TJD, well, here's the opp for getting him. The question is, is Brad done? We still have a FA in GWill that could be a sign and trade. Also, is a PP trade still a possibility, maybe with one of the Euro guys coming over?
BTW, love this that no one saw it coming. The rumor was Brogdon to the Clippers in a three way, out of the blue this hit. When I got home last night, Justine Termine was saying, as soon as the Clipper deal was "done", Brad's phone would be ringing with other offers.
