Dereck Lively II

PLAYER TALK

He is having yet another bigger injury and is expected to miss substatial amount of games this season, just like last season. His value seems to be alot lower than what was anticipated during/after his rookie campaign.

As an Ex-Mavs fan I was pretty set on him beeing the future cornerstone C and defensive anchor of the team. He looked incredible with Luka and became quickly one of my favorite players, now he looks like a shadow of his former self.

There are rumors that he could become avialable, if that would be the case what would you be willing to give up for him?
Is he another Greg Oden type of player that cant stay healthy or is it just the horrible medical/trainer staff of Nico's Yes-Men?
