I don't see Ant willing to come off the bench, do you?

Dudes like Ant don't start. He's lucky he got to start last year. He's fine as a backup combo guard who can play either guard spot. But he's not a starting point guard or shooting guard.

I think he will...Between bench minutes and small ball, he'll see plenty of action. I sure hope so

I see us trying a three guard lineup at first and then moving Ant to the bench when that proves to be bad on the court. Ant may grouse, he may not. If he does, ship him for a filler SF of some veteran stripe before he sours the team chemistry. If he doesn’t, great! The problem just solved itself.

If it's Brooklyn, I want Claxton and a bunch of picks. I'd take Simmons. I don't care. Try to move Dinwiddie somewhere else.



Scoot/Simons
Sharpe/Thybulle/Keon
Simmons/Nas/Rupert/Whitehead
Grant/Murray/Walker/Clowney
Claxton/Badji

The only problem is that portland becomes the better team...which I'm okay with. They do need a shooter at the three in my opinion

To you and Bemac, hell if Ant's willing to be a Super 6th man microwave scorer off the bench and in small ball, sure keep him. Here's that trade with a slight adjustment and now I think it's gold. Sure I'd like Claxton, but I would actually like to do a minor solid to Dame and give him a an actual shot in the East with Claxton and Bridges. With the Sixers in turmoil, I can easily see Brooklyn being a top 4 seed with that core. It will easily be the best and most balanced team Dame has been on and they can probably get a Free Agent to boot.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Boston's giving up a lot here, and probably wouldn't do it. People might want us to keep Brown, and I get that, but I also get that he's due a Supermax contract VERY soon and that would cripple us. (This is also a reason why Boston might not be as reluctant to trade him as they otherwise would be.)
(Ignore Nwaba - he's literally because I tried it without him and it didn't work.)

 

[cheesehoff]

How hard would it be to see Dame help the Spurs win a couple more rings?

Watching him win a couple rings wouldn't be the worst thing. IMO, I wouldn't be too upset if it was with the Spurs. It's hard to not envy what Pop has done there...and he's (seemingly) done it the right way with the right types of players.
Then, after Dame hypothetically wins a couple rings there, Portland kicks the shit out of them for many years to come behind Scoot & Sharpe.

I’m hoping for Brooklyn

Claxton and Clowney as the centerpieces

Me as well

 

[Natebishop3]

I still think that this would be a good trade. I don't care if Dame doesn't want to go to Boston.

 

[Natebishop3]

Here is my batshit crazy 4 team trade. I know 4 team trades hardly ever happen. I don't care.

 

[RonBrewer]

Free agents never wanted to come here, so hopefully even the front office should be immune to that by now. Dame will say nothing except shit like "snakes everywhere in the tall grasses but I rise above" or whatever... I personally think the Miami media already represents Dame here, that Dame and Riley have talked, and that Riley and Dame will pincer maneuver all of these negotiations as necessary.

why are you starting thread for an idiot trade idea like that?

He needs to learn the trade and then post.

The Blazers are giving away, not receiving picks???

 

[PCmor7]

It's an out-there idea. First glance I looked at it and thought it was crazy. Then I realize the Blazers get everyone we want and really the only guy we lose that I wouldn't want to give up (aside from Dame) is Jabari Walker.

The downside is no draft picks. And that's a big downside.

 

[PCmor7]

The Blazers are giving away, not receiving picks???

No. All the picks are from the Heat and Nets. But the Blazers don't get any picks. That's the drawback to this deal.

 

[KingSpeed]

The talent we’d get is insane though. We’d be so deep.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Jaquez isn’t a PG

 

[Strenuus]

That's the worst deal I've ever seen. We need picks. And 11 go to someone else? This may be the dumbest thing I've ever seen and I've looked at myself in the mirror.

He can be though.

You’d really rather have picks than all those players?

I want some picks. It's about safeguarding the future.

We’re not giving away picks in the deal. The future is bright with all these guys. Scoot’s made it clear he doesn’t want to develop a lot young players every year. He wants to win now.
