Rubio is out for the year. Trade CJ and Covington to Cleveland for Love and Okoro. If Love goes down then at least we got a young 2/3 asset, cap relief (albeit a year removed - but under LT this year), and we can embrace the tank. Our passing and size would improve a ton with that deal.

Lillard/Smith
Powell/Simons
Okoro/Little
Love/Little/Nance
Nurkic/Nance/Zeller
 
Hollinger had Roco as the #2 player to watch at the deadline (guess who #1 was??)

I think my main target would be one of Hunter/Reddish from Atlanta.

Btw Hollinger also mentions that the lakers probably have called about Powell

I liked the initial Roco trade, and I understand the reasons for the offers mentioned, but it'd feel like a big nut punch to give up 2 firsts for a guy, not do anything major to address team needs elsewhere, and then basically dump him for tax relief and a distant 2nd a year and some change later.
Fuck Neil.

honestly Roco isn’t at the top of my trade list. I get he’s a free agent but we need all the defenders we can find and we will have his bird rights. I would trade him for maybe a younger more inexperienced guy with a defensive profile that’s under contract next year though. Trading him just to duck the tax is wack.

I just think at his age and productivity, his bird rights probably don't matter a ton, because at best, he's an MLE contract, and anyone else can offer him the same. If even that.
And, I wouldn't want to bid over MLE with bird rights, because he just isn't worth it.

I do otherwise agree, I like his new bench role where it seems he is given greater freedom to roam, instead of a rigid role, and don't want to move him just to duck the tax. I mean, fuck you Jody, you have billions. It's not my money!

And also, agree, would love to move him for a younger player cost controlled another year or more.
 
I’m guessing hunter/reddish would cost a first. Wonder what Lu Dorts price is.

man olshey really fucked up by trading Trent. He would’ve been the perfect guy to play next to Dame.
 
RoCo for our first back from Chicago still makes more sense to me than any other possible trade. RoCo would have a revitalization on Chicago because they have good perimeter defenders.

Just need a 3rd team to take Derrick Jones since we can't.

I would submit part of that has to do with Norm playing out of position so much.

he wasn’t good in Toronto either before they traded him. Guys blow by him routinely, it doesn’t have much to do with his size. You barely see any threes post up anymore, and there are a bunch of players around his size playing SF. Our problem isn’t necessarily that we run three guard lineups. Our problem is none of them are even average defensively.
 
Here’s another one: Powell for Marcus Smart. Boston needs scoring/shooting. Their contracts are almost identical, as is their value on paper; identical VORP, nearly identical BPM. It’s swapping defense for offense and vice versa.
 
Raptors robbed olshey, deal with it. And it’s not like Trent magically became a good defender. The tools were always evident.
 
speaking of raptors, check out what chris boucher is doing again now that he's playing. with Anunoby and Barnes set to return from injury, I'm guessing his PT will go into the tank because nick nurse hates him for some reason.

given his FA status, it might not take much to get him.

seems like the kinda obvious high upside choice for cronin. his production also appears to be scalable given some of his huge games he's had in his career. Just put up a near 30/20 game this week.

(also fun fact.... he's older than Nurk).

HE WENT TO OREGON SO WE HAVE TO GET HIM CAUSE ITS MORE ABOUT WHERE THEY WENT TO SCHOOL AND CLOSENESS AND BLAH BLAH FUCKING BLAH.

You're not saying that but I'm imagining we will hear this come the off-season. Cause you are right.

He’s been playing good defense since starting. Not sure which game you’re watching.

Bet you couldn’t prove it. His defensive rating was its lowest this month and he was a -14 in +\- (was neutral or a plus before CJ got hurt)

What games you watching?

They didn't rob him. Powell is cheaper because his contract runs many more years at a decent value. Raptors have power over Trent for just one more season.
His next contract can be way more expensive with the spike in salary cap.

Btw the tools were not evident with Trent. He was terrible defensively for Portland.

Since CJ has been out, Powell has had a worse individual DRtg than the overall team rating in all but 2 games, FWIW.
