There's really no trade machining this one, we either use the TPE or we trade Bledsoe for him... let's hope it's trading Bledsoe. Obviously that will also take picks. The only thing we could do is give them the first we just acquired and two or even three second rounders. It sucks to give up that first but the fact that the pick has to be the 5th pick to the 14th or wait another year means that we won't get anyone with that pick that will impact this team the way Grant will during Dame's window. There is another option and I bet the Pistons would be all over it. All of their perimeter players are facilitator/slashers on offense and solid defenders. Honestly it's a big gamble but maybe Ant for Grant like this:

Those are technically two different trades and do work independent of each other.

Regardless of how, if we do get Grant let's hope he's grateful and tanks us a lot. We don't need these guys pulling out wins for us. Our depth or rather the lack of depth gives me comfort that we will lose any lead but Ant, NAW, Hart, Grant and Nurk are not a terrible lineup at least not terrible enough for my taste this season... we need our pick to be really high otherwise it won't likely be someone that makes a difference in a playoff series during the years Dame has left as a dominant force.
 
I wouldn’t be surprised if Nurk is next to be traded. There’s still plenty of time.
 
No way Morey trades us Simmons, it looks to them like a Dame trade is very much in play.
 
My guess is Grant talks break down and we snag Bagley tomorrow. Could just use a change of scenery?
 
Anyone see billups post game comments when asked about the new guys?
He said “hart abnd NWA are good players. We’ll see about the other two”

interesting…
 
Chris Mannix of SI says we going to shift into buyer mode by Thursday instead of selling off any more talent. Execs reiterating a Grant addition

Just a total guess on my part :angel:, but I wouldn’t be shocked to see Grant and Bagley on the Blazers by Thursday

Yeah, Bagley doesn't make sense in Sacramento and we have plenty of playing time available up front.

I'm fine getting Grant if we don't send out picks nor give him a max extension.

I mean, Fuck it. Give them Nurk in a trade for Grant.

I guess I would do this straight up. Although I question how we would win anything with a Dame & Grant duo. Although a Dame & Nurk duo isn't leading the team to contend without another all star either. Grant gives us more positional flexibility, ability to go small, and possible defense if he can regain his OKC/DEN form. Plus is signed for next season.

Like my above post, we cant give up picks or a Grant max extension in this. Let Grant prove he is a max level star next year with Dame, as I have major doubts.
 
Grant = TPE or Bledsoe. Then it's up to what additionally they want. Would be basically a salary dump for them. They already have a lot of cap space. Could do Nurk + as well.
Bagley = Satoransky + probably a 2nd round pick. Can't believe they'd use the TPE on him.

It comes down to what they can do with the cap space this summer for unbalanced trades to facilitate other deals. Definitely a roll of the dice, but at least there is a direction and a plan versus Neil's nonsense.
