Trade Ideas Thread

It takes two

 

I assume most NBA GMs know Dame really isn't available. If not one phone call would clear it up.

I realize Neil said CJ was not going anywhere and Morey/Doc said Simmons isn't going anywhere but I think that is a different situation.
That is just GM speak for "you are not getting him cheap."

 

I really wonder what made him to wait that long to fire a coach, who wasn't coaching. I can only think about money, somehow, bc lack of accountability on the court was so obvious and streetball team was playing was god awful, that you couldn't watch it.
Trading Stotts for Billups will/should have instant impact on team performance, imo and this trade will do more, than big players trade would do under Stotts.
Unfortunately, I can imagine, that it was Dame, that talked Neil to stay pat with CJ and Nurk and try it till next deadline as he bets on friendship again. I can easily imagine Lillard not givin up musketeers and kickin his own head with this idea.
That probably means Norm will go.
I can see WTC with the same rooster, cos why not, if we improve ball movement. That one thing makes this team much better.
Thing is, I really got enough of MeJ and I too think, Norm is less spectacular but better here.
I expect Lillard, CJ, Little, RoCo, Nurk in S5.
I don't see Blazers bench at this point.

 

There may be a bidding war on Siakam, and I bet the Blazers will be involved.

Doesn't fit Toronto's timeline
Masai isn't back yet, so who is making the decisions?
Had surgery that will keep him out till October
Maybe not as good as his contract
Has rumored interest already from teams like GSW

I would be surprised if he's not moved in one way or another.

 

Out of the blue, Kris Middleton and/or Jrue Holiday might be available because it sounds like Giannis unfortunately may have multiple ligaments torn in his knee and is likely out through next season.

 

source?

 

That's the opposite of what I jut saw.

 

Well great for the NBA and Giannis! I was going off of a Bucks forum but they were down about things, obviously, before this news. Is he Gumby?

 

"Breaking" news, lol.

 

That would hurt, but I'd definitely do it.

Is there any way we can get Myles Turner without giving up Dame or CJ? Would Indy want Nurk + stuff?

The following are targets, not guys I think we can get for CJ necessarily.

My top targets that are POSSIBLY available for trade, in close to actual order are:

Simmons
Ingram
PG-13
Myles Turner
Jerami Grant (unlikely he's available, but maybe)
Siakam (but I doubt he's available)

Then secondary targets are:

Hayward
Dillon Brooks
Marcus Smart
Boucher
Wiggins
Josh Hart

Any other stretch 4 and 5's you can think of we could target? Any other wings of note that MIGHT be actually moved?

 

Now you're thinking like a Laker Fan thinks towards trades.

 

Hollinger's win total speculation theory always crack me up.

 

Ha! Ohhh man you are talking to the WRONG guy here. Im soo not a CBA buff and Im just picking trades out of my ass, though that one somewhat make sense.

There are several here who would be much better at answering your question.

@BonesJones
@hoopsjock
@JDC
@Weiweismart Edit: Wait what? Who is that? Where did Weisenhiemer go?

 

Hurt so good!

 

The only way we can really get Turner is by trading Nurk and Jones if he opt in

 

Most of the guys that you have going to the Lakers are free agents and can't be traded.
