    Harkless to Detroit for Galloway, Galloway to OKC for Patterson, Patterson and two future 2nds to someone else as a dump?

    Harkless into anyone’s cap space. Sacramento is still ideal.

    Hood getting the bulk of Hark's minutes is hardly some huge downgrade.

    While Nurk is out, the entire rotation is messed up. Even if you keep Hark, there is going to be a talent downgrade somewhere.

    I wonder if Charlotte would do ET, Hark, and 2020 first for Marvin Williams and Cody Zeller.

    They'd be fools not to. Why would the Blazers want to?

    What does this accomplish? I dont think were all that better afterwards... And it takes away all flexibility in 2020 because we trade a pick for a mediocre big who will make $15M next year.

    We cut a little salary, Marvin Williams is a decent enough 3&D stretch 4 (shot .366 last season) and Zeller would be a good backup big/replacement for Nurk until he is back. Certainly better than Meyers.

    It opens up a bit more to try and lure Hood or go grab Carroll or Ariza with the MLE.

    That’s still 700k more than we had before.

    I wish I knew what Markieff is gonna get in FA. His net is so wide, I could see him getting more than the tax MLE, but I could also seem him having to settle for the BAE or something.

    Let’s just say by gods good grace Hood would return on the MLE AND we did that trade... you’re telling me this isn’t a better roster than what we have today?

    Dame / Simons
    CJ / Trent
    Hood / Little
    Collins / Williams / Skal
    Nurk / Zeller / Leonard

    Looking at Neil’s trade history with Portland, it seems like he makes a lot of offseason trades the week before FA. The TROB, Rolo, and Batum trades for example. I think we’ll see something go down next week.

    No matter what, I just hope he can turn expiring into a rotational player that can play and not be hot garbage 85% of the time.

    Do people honestly believe Little will be a better team defender than Harkless this year? I like the kid, but we need to be patient.

    Probably not right away but give him minutes and he will be better overall as a player by the deadline.

    Can anyone think of any somewhat realistic way that we could land Randle? There isn’t one is there? I read some article about the jazz letting Favors walk and signing Randle to a 4/80 mil deal.

    Conley
    Mitchell
    Ingles
    Randle
    Gobert

    That would be very hard to beat.
