The 2022 Trade Idea Thread, now with more urgency!

[SharpesTriumph]

Or we just accept the team will suck again next year and this is a very long term rebuild.

The only way it accelerates is if we trade Dame.

 

[illmatic99]

50 minutes til the deadline. Guessing we're done.

 

[RR7]

I wanted Jalen Smith.

If we traded for him, we couldn't pay more than his 3rd year rookie option to keep him in the offseason.

 

[Natebishop3]

50 minutes til the deadline. Guessing we're done.

Short of Cronin trading Dame for a bag of peanuts, I think we're done.

 

[RR7]

We’re talking about receiving a 1st rd pick, not getting Richardson.

Yeah, SA took on Richardson for white to get the pick

No on could. PHX messed up.

 

[RR7]

No on could. PHX messed up.

We could offer him more in the offseason, just his current team can not.

If that's the case, free Dame by this time next season... not as some favor to him but to accelerate the rebuild.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Trading for Richardson would have put another 12 million on the books next year. I dont know what the ultimate plan will work out to be, but that's why we wouldn't have made that swap with powell

Not to mention, I think Powell is just the type of player that Boston didn't want.

some years several trades happen right into the bell

All the dominos have fallen. Grant is the only one that remains and we don't have the pieces to get him.

 

[RR7]

I'd like a flyer on him

Detroit's gonna realize the offers for Grant aren't going to be better in the off-season. But it doesn't matter. I'm not thrilled with the idea of Grant now either way.

 

[blazedanugz]

I’m so tired of…it’ll be better in the off season…it’ll be better timing at the draft…wait for the next trade deadline….
DO SOMETHING

I'd trade the Memphis 2nd for him and that's it. He's an RFA this offseason so if we wanted him we probably could get him.

 

[Hoopguru]

Cronin made it very clear in his statement last week what his plan was and it appears he's working his plan. Clear cap to bring in complimentary pieces for Dame.
Doesnt have to happen now but it will offseason for sure.

we just traded 3 starters and our 6th man. Almost entirely for shit value.

do you really want idiot Joe making more deals?

 

[blazerkor]

50 minutes til the deadline. Guessing we're done.

Yep, just have to see what picks we end up with hopefully a high lottery, a mid lottery and two seconds. Hell, we win the lotto and get Jabari Smith... then take another good player later in the lotto. Cronin could just get saved by this team tanking well, getting lucky and NOLA sucking but not getting lucky in the lotto.

 

[Cugel]

I think Cronin is borderline incompetent. What a steal by the Clippers. Fuck me man.

If only he could have added another poor defensive role player with the shitty team he was left with

When did we ever get the free agents that we wanted and needed?

Evan Turner

borderline?

 

[Cugel]

Looks like Nurk and Ant will get big paydays and the team will ~basically be the same as this season!! Sub out CJ for Ant and it's the same goddamn team.

 

[TBpup]

 

[illmatic99]

Wizards are getting into the tankathon with us.

 

[BlazerBeav]

And hopefully two lottery picks.

This NBA Today show sucks. It's just been a Harden/Simmons show. And less not forgot, Malika " Laker Fan Girl" Andrews interruption to try to get a "Can't do shit" Laker , hopeful deal, segment in there.
