Jrue Holiday trade ideas

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

It seems that either Milwaukee is really stupid or they know something we don't... I just don't understand this trade from their point of view.
I think of it this way:

Was their team good enough to win a title before the trade? No.

Is their team good enough to win a title now? Maybe.

or you can swap in "... to keep Giannis..." instead of "... to win a title...".

Either way, they needed to change something to get over the hump, and I can se how they think Dame might be the answer.
 
Holiday to the Bulls for Lonzo Ball, Pat Williams and a first?

Lonzo Ball is major negative value. It would take a 1st to dump him

Jrue is major positive value

Blazers would need their own pick back, an unprotected 1st (or top-5 protected), another lottery protected first, Williams and filler
 
Look at okc as a potential for crap contracts (bertans), potential flyer (poku), junk and picks
I don’t know why OKC would trade very much for Dame. The road through the West is much harder, and Holiday doesn’t put them over the top. It’s going to be an East team that wants him to guard Dame.
 
I'd do Lonzo, Patrick Williams, our pick back and probably both the Bulls '28 and '30 FRPs.

Every team that thought they had a chance in hell at Dame and were blindsided by the Bucks getting him are right now in a bidding war for Jrue.
I would do that as well.

You already had your young backcourt. You got Ayton. You would have PWill, who I was really high on (not #4 that year high though), so why not bring him on. You would still have Ant and Grant. AND you free up our 1sts and got us 3 more?

Cronin, you dirty dog.
 
We gave up 2 FRPs for RoCo
Yeah that was a bad decision but RoCo had never been an all star, RoCo hadn't just been the starting PG on the team who had the best record in the Eastern Conference who probably only got knocked out of the playoffs because their best player was injured.

Yeah, I think that we need at least two future firsts for Jrue but not because we made a bad deal for a far lesser player.
 

Answer: more than you have.

Brogdon, Horford, and 2 unprotected 1sts get it done for me.

And I’m not entirely convinced we would shop him either. He’s a good player but would be on his fourth team. I love keeping him as a third guard behind Scoot and Shae unless we could get a 1st out of him. Horford, solid vet and someone who is reliable at the 5 behind Ayton.
 
More is being worked on. It might not be official for a day or two.
Am pressed for time, but will try to get into more of it on YouTube tonight.

No need for details, but good deal for us?

Change Horford for Timelord and we get our PF whi is still young, who can rebound and we can slide Grant to SF.

Timelord, Brogdon, 2 UFRPs fo Jrue

They have too many players, too many picks, they almost made the playoffs last year and should be much better this year with Chet and the rest of their roster maturing. They are a piece away, IMHO, from a deep playoffs run.

Time to try and get that with a consolidation trade and remove some of the extra picks.
 
The Celtics draft picks are going to suck for awhile. Only thing I'd want from Boston is KP.

I mean I would love for them to be in love with him enough to give us 3 1sts as a baseline.
 
Something like this is might be good. 2 firsts, and Gradey is was a lotto pick this year. Boucher is an under-rated player who could start at forward for us. Then the Dame trade essentially becomes for 4 first round picks and Boucher.

I think that if the trade goes official as-is, then Jrue can't be delt in an aggregated trade for 2 months per the CBA. I'm guessing they are working the phones trying to get him moved in the main transaction to avoid this?
