It's scary how alike his career has been up to his point to Zach's. Let's hope Collins improves faster

Well there are some serious questions about how old Thon really is and this is his 3rd season but I can see some parallels. I wouldn't mind taking a cheap flier on him and Olshey was allegedly interested in him before his draft.

Edit: The only problem is we can't really provide much more playing time.

They can if they trade Meyers
 
Thon could probably get more PT on a team like Atlanta, what about this:

Atlanta gets Turner, Stauskas (or any throw in), Thon Maker, future Por 1st

Milwaukee gets Dedmon and Swanigan (or any throw in?)

Portland gets Taurean Prince, Jeremy Lin, Jason Smith, and future Mil 2nd

If he's not happy playing for one of the best teams in the NBA I doubt he'd be happy getting Meyers minutes here. I could be wrong but I don't think our situation is that much different as he has been given lots of chances to establish himself in the rotation.

I just wonder if we'd get cut out, and they'd do a simple Maker- prince swap

Certainly possible. I read a Bucks forum quite frequently and they seem to want Dedmon more than Prince because of team needs. Just about every one said they would trade Smith and Maker for Dedmon and a small salary going back.
 
I’m not big on Maker, guys probably 25 years old already. Seems to have all the tools but can’t figure out how to use them. Just my opinion.
 
I’m interested in adding Knick SF Kevin Knox to Dame, CJ, Nurk and Collins.

Aminu + Harkless + our #1

For Knox and Kantor

And if we can find a trade partner for Leonard, let’s get that done! Leonard & Simons for Green of Memphis?

Turner won’t go anywhere in my opinion.

The Knicks would most definitely reject that. Why would they (a rebuilding team who wants cap space next year) want two average role players, an additional $8M in salary next summer, and a pick in the 20s for a guy they took at #9 last year and a good role player?

And then why would we give up a 1st (Simons) to trade Meyers for an equally performing player? Green might be slightly better but Im most definitely not giving up a 1st for that swap and I'm not giving up a 1st to only dump $11M.

Sorry.
 
I dunno what happened to the trade ideas thread, too lazy to look, so I'll use this one. All the same basically.

A buy low target I'm interested in as a Turner replacement with an outside shot is Denzel Valentine from the Bulls. Out for the season, so wouldn't be useful until next year, but could provide us what Turner does, and can actually make a 3. They're not going to be interested in Portis as a RFA much either, with WCJ and Markannen, so I wonder if there's a way to get the pair?

I would really like getting those 2

Ya because the guys not developed yet and has potential. That is how this team rolls though.
 
While Anthony Davis is the pipe dream, on the presupposition that he is traded and we don't have the chips to get in the game, I wish we could get Jrue Holiday.

Multipositional, incredible defense, decent shooter. He was a killer in the playoffs last year. I don't see it with his big contract and the team's current ownership situation, but his character and backcourt defense would be a huge upgrade for the team. Wish we could pull off something like Holiday for Aminu/Leonard/Harkless/picks? It'd be a salary dump for them, and drop a shitload of dead weight for us. If they get other picks for Davis this may be a start over move for them?

Lillard/Curry
McCollum/Stauskus
Holiday/Turner
Layman/Turner
Nurkic/Collins

with sprinkles of Simons/Trent

Holiday is too small to play SF. He would get killed by George, KD, LeBron, etc.

Would probably need to do something like C.J. for Covington, filler, and picks.
 
Here’s a question, with the AD to LA talk picking up again what do we do if AD ends up with Bron and GS keeps Durant(and the rest)? In that scenario do we really have a shot at even a WCF over the next 3-4 years?

When I factor in Den and the fact I think Morey somehow lands another healthier star to pair with Harden I think the answer is No unfortunately.

And that wouldn't be good for us, since we have no Big Man coach who can coach him up.

What is everyone's thoughts on getting Draymond Green?

I have mixed feelings about it:

1) The guy is a absolute fucking headcase. BUT.....he has an attitude that I think would benefit this team greatly. And he could mentor up a guy like Biggie.....that is worth its weight in gold.

2) A lot of people here say he's overrated. I don't know if that's just down to a dislike of the guy or GS, but I think that is total and utter horseshit. He's no LeBron James, but I absolutely think he's elite, with obvious flaws.....his biggest of which is, as I mentioned, the fact that he's a headcase, and thus: not a natural leader. He also gets frustrated easy, and that affects his game.

Is he worth the trouble? The constant technicals, the hissyfits.......I hesitantly say "yes", however, I am very apprehensive. I think our Defense would get an immediate improvement, and to my knowledge he's not too shabby in the passing game either.

I say......McCollum, Moe, and Turner, with possibly a first thrown in. Too much? Too little?

Our lineup(s):

Dame/Curry/Simons
Nurk/Leonard/Collins
Green/Collins/Aminu
Layman/Trent/Green
Aminu/Green/Collins
(Feel free to juggle these around; I don't have our roster in front of me atm)

That would give us a starting lineup that is a terrifying threat at the 3, and a big threat in the paint. Not to mention the Defense to go with it.

I don't think Green is going to be in GS's long term project if they resign Durant. They don't get along, and people seem to like Durant better (gee, can't imagine why.....).

What do you think? And full disclosure: I don't follow GS, so I don't know what their cap situation is, or if Green is even healthy at the moment.

How the hell is Morey gonna add another star?

Lots of what ifs.

Why would GS eant CJ? They have no kneed for him.
 
I just had a dream that we dealt for Blake on deadline day. Don't remember what we gave up, but Orlando was involved somehow. First time I can ever remember having dreamt about a trade. Very strange. I think I need to spend less time in this thread...

The way Trent has been playing I the G League, I wonder if he's the more attractive piece over Simons.

Either way, while I agree that's basically our best offer for AD, I don't see it being the best one that NOP receives for him.

Also, I doubt CJ has any more interest in being in New Orleans long-term than AD does.
