That's a nice trade.
was trying to figure out what to do with Turner and Charlotte. Apparently the Pels and the Hornets are both interested in Turner. This also gets CHA out of the Hayward contract. I'm guessing they'd want Levert too, though.

Something like this:

Then we do a Roco + Jones + 11 + 2024 1st to Toronto for Siakam.

We end up Dame/Powell/Hayward/Siakam/Nurk.

That team could compete for 1 seed
 
Nice trade but would it be enough for Dame? Is Hayward enough of a star player to blow Dames skirt up?
Hayward and Levert without losing RoCo or Nurk? That would be a pretty damn impressive move.

The real question would be who would come off the bench between Powell, Hayward, and Levert?

Can we PLEASE not trade for oft injured players?!

Have you seen our history?!
 
I would be so happy if we traded CJ for the 3rd pick and love and got Evan Mobley.

Evan Mobley is who Olshey thought Z Co was… but better.

He would have very little offensive pressure in the starting lineup and would be a monster defensively from day one.

PLEASE DO IT.
 
I'm still waiting for someone to suggest we should trade CJ for Marvin Williams. There's always someone who thinks Marvin Williams is going to bounce back even though he was exceptionally mediocre his entire career.

Resign Powell to 4y/80m.

Trade CJ for Lonzo with sign and trade and also get back pick 17. That saves us around 10M if we consider Lonzo will get around 20M. Maybe get an extra asset too.
I think Lonzo is better as a wing and he has the size to play the 3. Great secondary playmaker, great defender and very improved shooter.
 
Haven't read through the thread but is there that many people in here that think CJ and stuff for Siakam is an actual trade Toronto would even think about?

Not a chance imo...
I don't think that Toronto would be interested in CJ at all. I think if we were somehow to attain Siakam we would need a third team that did need the skills CJ brings. They would trade the Raptors most of what they'd need to give up Siakam and we would have to come up with the rest. I think if we acquire Grant from Detroit it will also take a third team. Getting Simmons wouldn't take a third team but it would take a lot of what you were calling stuff.

Interesting thought playing Lonzo at the 3. If he bulked up a bit more, he’d certainly be big enough to bother a lot of elite 3’s outside of the Lebrons/KDs/Giannises of the world. Good spot up shooter these days I’ve heard. I also like that he doesn’t demand the ball but can still playmake for others. I guess it would be a lot like what Batum was for us.
But imo $20m/yr for Ball is rich. If he is going to play the Batum role, I’d just rather us get Batum for the tax MLE. I haven’t watched much of Ball outside of maybe 10-15 games in the last 2 years so unless I actually start watching a bunch of Lonzo tape, someone would REALLY have to convince me that Lonzo has gotten exponentially better on defense. Never had a problem with his defense, I knew given his size he could certainly defend at least at an above average level. But he’s been guarding guards—I wonder how he would fair guarding guys potentially 2-3 inches taller than him for 30 minutes a night.
But having Ball would immediately fill a need of a starting SF and backup PG though. It’ll be Anfernee’s time to shine off the bench, I can see Lonzo really accelerate Anfernee’s development/confidence, but also his trade value if a big time trade for a star can happen. Anfernee and Nassir’s development will really dictate Dame’s decision.
I had planned on replying to your comment with “but $20m/yr is rich” but when I had to come up with reasons for “but”, I guess I talked myself into it more. But I would hope we get #17 + future protected 1st. I’ve always felt like Lonzo would be leaving and NOLA unless they overpaid for him and they probably are unwilling to do so though.
Turning Bledsoe and Adams’s contracts + 2 1sts + 1 2nd into CJ/Valanciunas is a a pretty good haul.
Gonna be watching Lonzo tapes tmr to see if this would ever be a good idea. Props to you lol.
 
Imo, unless the offer reasonable I wait to trade CJ if thats the plan. If he plays great at the start of the season we wont have a disadvantage/ must trade now we have currently. You cant give him away for the sake of just making a move and Imo, Dame would agree. If however a decent offer is made that can help move the needle, sure.
 
With the Buddy Hield trade, can we try to pry Barnes from Sacramento?

Zach needs to be a S&T. Should be fine for Sactown to get hardcapped. Not having matching salaries suck.

I see a lot of three way proposals with philly and Toronto, but are we sure that Toronto wouldn’t be interested in McCollum (and possibly picks) for Siakam? Especially if they lose Lowry. We’ve seen how well McCollum plays when Dame is out. He always elevates his game as the primary playmaker.
