Trade Would you trade CJ... The Super Duper Trade Thread!

Vucevic had a career high 29 rebounds in a game....I call that pretty good defense. Same game I think he scored 23 pts...this is a very, very talented big man

 

[Chris Craig]

If I'm Olshey, I'm listening to offers, but it would take something special to part with CJ

I've always wanted Vucevic... the guy is good on a bad team, but I think he could be good anywhere.

I admit I always have liked Oladipo and Vucevic. But is Orlando another Milwaukee to Blazer fans. Fornier, Oladipo, Vucevic, Tobias Harris (before he was traded) .......all these good players on bad teams that we want. But aren't they part of the reason that they are bad teams?

Part of the problem is that you need a superstar to really be a contender in this league.

Who is the superstar on the Magic? Who on the Bucks? I think Giannis could potentially be a superstar.... but not right now. Those guys are all really great complimentary players, but they're not stars. If you put them with Dame, we could have a really great starting lineup.

I agree that you need a super star to contend......but they should be good enough to make the playoffs with all the good players they have, if they really are that good. But I will concede that they are both young teams and that is part of the problem. They just don't know how to win. Which is what happens when you tank for several years in a row.

On the other hand, we plucked Harkless from them and he turned out pretty good.

I don't mind taking those players for free like we did for Harkless. It's giving up CJ that I am leery about.

I'm with ya there.

What if it was a quick flip, where you traded CJ to Orlando for Vuc, Oladipo, and the #11, and then swapped Vucevic/Pick/Vonleh? for Cousins?

If we could end up with Oladipo, Cousins, and still have cap space.... I think Horford would look LOVELY next to Boogie.

But then who is our starting shooting guard and backup PG?

Yes I would be good with that fantasy.

I was gonna say Victor Oladipo?

 

[riverman]

I just don't see Olshey moving him for spare parts...there's a short list of guys you trade a player like CJ for.

Crap. Missed that. I thought Nate was also offering Olidipo for Cousins. Got it. Thanks for clarifying

But if the end net is Cousins?
