    and, what Portland got back is Hart, a 1st round pick, and the TPE used on Grant

    The 1st was also used for Grant.

    We traded Hart for a (1st) Murray

    If Grant doesn't return, the only thing we have left to show for CJ is Murray and yes, some space.

    and I think I made it clear I don't accept your long-term calculus.

    Cronin quite obviously had a plan for that trade: get Hart as well as the pick and TPE to land Grant. No team is going to have the certainty they can keep a player when he becomes UFA. That's a fundamental risk of trades that all teams accept. That's obvious. Are you pining for the days of CJ back on the squad?

    No, I don't want CJ back. The playoffs yes.

    I voted yes for the right player. And there are only two. Giannis and Joker.

    I wouldn’t trade you for just any player, but I would at least want a second round pick back.

    I voted yes for right player, and I'd add in some. Evan Mobley. Banchero or Chet for roster balancing, maybe. Maybe Halliburton plus sweetener (I really like his game and his small-town vibe). Frankly, I don't want Embiid and Giannis and Joker aren't going anywhere.

    To refuse this trade proposal is what it would take for Dame to ask out.
    So nobody in here besides me would trade Shae and Simons for Bridges and Clax? wow
    Dame, Scoot
    Bridges, Grant
    Clax and whoever?

    I would have traded #3+Sharpe in a package for the next tier up of player (Embiid, Jokic, Giannis, Luka, etc)

    Sharpe for Brown straight up I would consider. Sharpe probably has a higher ceiling, but Brown has a much lower floor, and is ready to contribute at a high level now.

    Correct. Part of the problem is it's near impossible to match salary without adding a lot more talent to Sharpe.
