Various answers will be provided when asking what was Dell Demps worse move.
Some will tell you, that it was the Jrue trade. I mean giving up 2 picks for Jrue Holiday? Could've just picked up MCW. Only a top 3 protection on the 2nd pick, seriously wtf Dell?
Some will say that it was drafting Rivers, should've went with Henson, Jones, Lamb.. hell probably would've been better off trading the pick.
You might hear some say it was matching Eric Gordon's deal, yeah I guess I could see where an argument could be made there.
If you asked me, I would tell you that Dell's worse move by far was the Tyreke Evans deal. I say this for various reasons.
First let's look back at the roster before that deal was made.
Jrue/Vasquez/Roberts
Gordon/Rivers
Aminu/Miller
Davis/Anderson
Lopez/Smith
That was a solid roster, the only glaring hole seems to be the sf position. So Demps sets out to find us a sf. Midnight hits and he's meeting with Tyreke Evans! Really Dell? Another guard? Apparently they believes he can play the 3, BUT HE CANT SHOOT nor defend 3s, I never understood the fit. But anyways the decision to sign Evans wasn't the killer, how Evans was acquired is what set this Franchise back.
Demps gave up Lopez and Vasquez for Tyreke. Effectively creating a hole at center and backup pg for a player who was redundant to what we already had and did not fill a need. He also killed our cap space with the deal. And I'm sure most people would rather Lopez at $5m than Evans at $11m
So before the Tyreke deal we needed a sf, afterwards we needed a sf and a center. A year later, Demps had to clean up his mess and give up a 1st to acquire asik (nice save). But that 1st and cap space could've been used to get a sf, like Ariza. We also would've still had the money to keep Morrow and Smith.
Our lineup today could've been:
Jrue/Vasquez/Smith
Gordon/Rivers/Morrow
Ariza/Morrow/Miller
Davis/Anderson/Young
Lopez/Smith
With space to add a few more pieces for depth.
Instead we have no picks, no cap space, and no depth.
