If things continue to go sideways in Los Angeles, selling off pieces seems like the only logical step for the Clippers.

DeAndre Jordan, who can become a free agent after the season, has been coming up in trade conversations, with multiple teams talking potential trades.

I’ll take one Lou Williams.

 

[Sarni]

Milwaukee make the most sense by far but I am not sure if they have the pieces to get this done. Other than them I don't really see too many obvious candidates. Magic will probably try, they are always circling when a big move is possible and I won't be surprised if Pop tries to bring him to Spurs.

Maybe Knicks? They could match salaries but would probably also need to offer their pick.

 

[RR7]

Wouldn't mind poaching Blake from them, but I know that isn't happening.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Wow Griffin will be paid 39 million in year 5. (2021-22) How can they not unload him too.

 

[Sarni]

I would actually not mind DJ here for the right price. I don't think we could get this done though plus we are investing in Nurkic.

What if Nurk was part of the package?

I could see some people being up in arms over this post I like it. Thinking outside the box.

I would probably be one of them...... if I hadn't posted it myself. Nurk is younger and better offensively and still decently defensively. DJ on the other hand is only 29 and elite defensively. Not an easy decision for me. DJ would have to agree to not opting out.....which he would never do, so I guess my vote would be no.

...would be hilarious if they trade him to the Mavs

Is it more or less predictable than your post about it?

Holy Cripes

Do you suppose we could get in on Gallinari (and Thornwell)? If we could swap ET and Mo for those two, I'd be ecstatic.

Jabari Parker is a good starting point IMO.

I'd toss in a pick for that.

 

[BonesJones]

I'd even take Austin Rivers fuck it.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I'd do Jordan, Williams, and Dekker for Nurkic, Turner, and Harkless tbh.

Cap savings galore.

 

[GrandJury]

Trade Nurk for him

 

[Rhal]

Nurk would have to go for Jordan but I woulnd't trade for Jordan regardless because I think he leaves after this year. The guys personality makes it seem like he wants to live in a big fancy city so you can bet your ass we would have one hell of a time resigning him.

Gallinari stinks. I guess his overrated status in Denver has somehow survived and moved on up to the large market. It's fucking laughable. Mo or ET individually are worth more than that dude. He sucks ass.

 

[rotary111]

Thornwell is good. Take Mo. Go ahead.

DJ is not elite defensively, he's an elite rebounder and that's it. How anyone could even hesitate as to which they'd rather have at this stage of their careers is silly. Nurkic all the way.

I can't figure out why some are so down on Nurk suddenly. He had a few bad games when he was sick, and tonight he had a double double while our starting backcourt was 12 of 41 with two assists and 6turnovers and our starting SF had one more point than me. I know he had shitty turnovers tonight but he is not the problem.

 

[Sarni]

Yeah but salary wise, they don't really have any expiring contracts and taking players like Henson or Teletovic will just bloat Clippers roster. Also, Milwaukee cannot offer a pick.

They can't offer their 2020?

They're gonna need a C to replace Jordan, so Henson makes sense. They could take Delevedova too, as they need a PG because Beverly and Teodosic are hurt.

What is the value of a 2020 pick of a team that will have Antetokoumpo posting 50/15/10 game in game out then?

 

[BigGameDamian]

LBJ probably wants DJ in Cleveland.

 

[Pinwheel1]

DJ is not elite defensively, he's an elite rebounder and that's it.

Regardless if he is elite or not, he has been 1st team all NBA defensive team twice in the last 3 years....so I think it is safe to say he is one of the better defensive centers in the NBA?

I think it's safe to say our defense has drastically improved since Nurk came along.

The value is Jabari Parker.
