With Jokic getting an extension that goes into effect immediately, Denver will have to make a move with some of their expirings if they want to bring back Barton/not dive deep into tax. Chandler should be there for the taking.
Barton is rumored to be headed to the Pacers....play some Nate ball next to Oladipo...they're letting Stevenson walk
 
Beal aint any better than CJ, but why would they do that?
well...defensively he's better....offensively CJ is better. you sell high on CJ and you can get a better swap...you could get a Jimmy Butler or a Klay Thompson type talent...Beal isn't that level..you might pry a young guy like Tatum for CJ
 
I also disagree, I think Beal is slightly better overall, 2 inches taller, 2 years younger, and 20lbs heavier.
 
Denver saves apx. $40-M-50M in net payment. They're paying Jokic a ton of money this summer, and will be heavily in the tax, so saving $17M in salary is huge for them where they'r simply downgrading on rotation spot, in a trade that might let them keep the better overall SF (Barton).

You're wrong on the Faried thing. Farieds salary can't be "aggregated" with other salary. It's a rather tricky thing, but since Faried matches Harris by himself, and the other outgoing salaries match Boban's, the trade is workable. Basically, if Portland could split it into two separate trades where Faried is by himself for part of the package in one, with everything else being workable in a separate hypothetical deal, the trades can be combined into one. At least that's my interpretation of it. It's definitely not as simple as not being able to combine him with other players, I've read the actual CBA.

That's what I said regarding Faried. Read my last sentence below

Faried can't be traded in a package with other players as his deal would have to be on its own to Clippers.

You listed it as a package deal thus my response.

As for Denver wanting Evan Turner, bet that never happens. I've also read the CBA as well.
 
What looks better to you...

Dame
Beal
Oubre
Collins
Nurk

Or

Dame
CJ
Hark
Collins
Nurk

If you couldn't trade him alongside players, it would specifically State that. That trade might not work, since Farieds salary doesnt match all incoming salary, but something like Faried, Swanigan, and Layman is definitely doable under the CBA since you don't have to aggregate Farieds salary with others to match salary.

The first one, but why would the Wizards slightly downgrade SG just to give up Oubre for Aminu? Burn are doengrades. It makes no sense for them.

I thought you just said CJ was a slight upgrade over Beal?
 
Honestly it’s too fair of a trade to ever happen, unless someone’s throwing in a pick too.

I said Beals not better, but that was in the context of our team, since CJ and Dame have good chemistry. If we disregard that context, Beal is slightly better. For the Wiz, it's a downgrade because CJ is more ball-dominant and Wall needs the ball to be effective.

I think that's why Beal is better next to Dame as well. I think Dame and CJ are good friends but their games don't work together on either end of the court. CJ doesn't spot up shoot, he's got to pound the rock every time he gets it regardless of how open Dame gets him and neither Dame or CJ can defend legit two guards. I would definitely do this trade, it improves our defense and offensive flow.
 
Wall
CJ
Porter/Brown
Chief/Morris
Someone

Throw in a first to them too, that way I don’t gotta watch the draft next year
 
It's not fair for Washington at all. Oubre >>> Aminu and (for them) Beal > CJ
Would you do it if we added an unprotected first rounder? By the way, I agree with you on Beal but Oubre/Aminu is close even though I give the edge to Oubre.

We'd be a playoff team, why would it need to be unprotected?

Oubre is slightly better than Aminu, but also young with much more upside. I don't think even an unprotected 1st gets it done to be honest.

So if CJ doesn't spot up shoot, why would Washington want him instead of Beal? Beal is a much better fit next to Wall due to how ball dominant Wall is.

Yeah, I agree with you for the most part and doubt Washington would do it.
 
A 6’5” 208 lb snipper 2guard that plays both ways doesn’t fit the Blazers M.O. anyway. I think Kemba is on the block???

Beal is a better fit for Washington than CJ and maybe a better player overall but you cannot ignore how injury prone he is. CJ is basically guaranteed to play for full season, you are lucky if you can get Beal healthy for 80% or season.
 
@jlprk

What's the draft day trade you wouldn't made that would've netted us that coveted Small Forward?

Get offa Whitsitt’s nuts and put together your deal...
 
Okay, time to have some fun with getting involved with K. Leonard trade. I don't think he would want to come to Portland so we need to enter as a 3rd team (and no I don't think this would really happen, but just having some fun).

Cavs Get:
K. Leonard
P. Mills

SA Gets:
CJ
Aminu

Portland Gets:
Love
Nance Jr.

Portland saves $7.2M in the deal and fixes their frontcourt. You can sign an athletic backup center to add to the mix of Collins/Nance/Love at the C/PF positions. Then sign a SG that doesn't need the ball in his hands an entire possession to help the team.

Just having some fun.
 
I don't think I'd do that. Instead of Kevin Love, I'd like the Blazers to find outside spot up shooting elsewhere, for a lot less, and roll with the bigs we have.

:cheers:
