  • Taking the long view - going to be patient
  • CJ/Dame are pretty much untouchable
  • Might be involved in bigger deals either at deadline or draft
  • A lot of options going forward
  • Won't try to make a trade to make the playoffs

Is there an archive? Sounds like a whole lotta nothing.
 
For the season? He put the roster together. He used cap money on a player that won't play this season. He signed Turner who doesn't fit on this team. He re-signed Leonar. Our team plays shit defense. If it's the coach then fire him and move on......still Olshey.

What if it was PA as well? He ultimately makes the decisions.
 
This trade was on bleacher report.


  1. Detroit Pistons Receive: SF/PF Maurice Harkless, PF/C Meyers Leonard, C Jahlil Okafor, PG/SG Lou Williams

    Los Angeles Lakers Receive: SG Darrun Hilliard, 2017 top-five protected first-round pick (from Memphis, via Portland)

    Philadelphia 76ers Receive: PF/C Noah Vonleh, 2018 second-round pick (via Detroit)

    Portland Trail Blazers Receive: SG/SF Reggie Bullock, C Andre Drummond, PG Beno Udrih
 
Well if woj says Crabbes contract is tradable then we are all dumb but it makes sense since the cap is going up anyways, crabbe will look like a good contract in 2019, shit maybe even next year

Why would Detroit do that at all? No picks for Drummond?

that really is open ended, "tradable" for what? A similar "bad" contract?
 
Here's what I'd do:

1.) See if Philadelphia would trade Okafor for Crabbe
2.) See if a team would trade a 1st for Nurkic (We could do that as a separate trade, then trade that 1st), or preferably Aminu/Davis.
3.) Shop Okafor with Harkless and up to the 4 picks for a star (Butler, George, Drummond, etc.). Would be a 3-team trade with Philadelphia.

So hypothetically:

Trade Aminu to WAS for 24th pick.

Then:
PHI Gets: Crabbe
We Get: All-Star, Henderson
Team 3 Gets: Harkless, Okafor, POR 1st, MEM 1st, WAS 1st, CLE 1st

In Yesterdays NBA players got paid for what they've done, and can do right now.
In Todays NBA players get paid off potential, and what they could do a year or two into that contract.
I've thought all along, while Crabbe is getting paid a lot for a backup 2 or 3. Around the NBA his value is high. Not because of what he does right now, but what he could be doing two years from now.
His rep does a lot to raise his trade value too.
Gym rat, improves every year. Low minute, high shooting %.

Aminu is worth way more than the 24th pick

Kerry Eggers is going to get a very dirty look from Olshey the next time he is in the Rose Garden.

As for Crabbe's contract, it's not that it's untradeable, it's that it needs to be an unbalanced trade with Portland taking back a lot less salary. That way they can pay the trade kicker which goes against the salary cap but won't push them into the Luxury Tax. If it was a $ for $ trade, Portland has to pay around $20M in Luxury tax....my understanding.

Taking less for Crabbe means you either get little back, a rookie deal (some would be fine) or the other team has to throw in a pick.
