Jrue Holiday trade ideas

you seem to be the only one who didn't keep up in the convo.

do you have anything useful to add? if not, kindly ignore.

 

Precisely. You wouldn't call me HP, right?

 

Leave The HC alone.

 

That's what we all call you. You just can't see those threads!

 

Oh you can ignore me that's fine. Remember I bring nothing of substance to this forum. I simply mentioned I had never heard anybody call him CP before and you snapped at me something about where I live as if I pissed you off.

 

See that's funny! Well done.

 

Barrett is awful. I know a lot of Knicks fans who despise him. Can't shoot worth shit.

 

Given Jrue has said he only plans to play two more seasons, I can't see any young team trading for him, so we've got to narrow the list to win-now teams that need an upgrade at PG:

Boston, Philly, Miami, LAC, and LAL are the first that come to mind.

Spurs won't have any interest. Golden St already has two PGs.

 

This.

100% This.

I don't want Paul anywhere near Ayton. We need a completely fresh start for him. I have always thought Paul was a tyrant asshole.

 

I've actually talked to and worked with him a couple times and I would never say, "Hey what's up CP!" Reminds me of a time in a lobby somebody hollered at Aldridge once, "LaMarcus"! He whipped around all scared and said that freaked him out because the only one who called him that was his uncles when he was in trouble! HA!

 

To be fair, I’ve heard LeBron and Dwayne Wade call him CP on numerous occasions.

 

Contenders willing to give us young bench players and picks? Maybe OKC?

 

Right on, I've never heard that. Maybe like some people call Dame Damian?

 

Can I get a good young piece from Houston and a pick?

 

but, which teams?

 

Figuring out which contender has a surplus of young bigs(Forwards) is the first step.

 

I tend to agree. A lot of teams would love to have a point guard like Holiday. Portland will have no trouble trading him.

 

I really like the Kuminga idea, whoever said it. Not sure what kind of 3way would work, GS needs bigs correct?

 

I can't see OKC mortgaging their future for 2 years of Jrue.

To me, our best bet is try and trade Jrue to a team who's window is closing fast for salary filler and a couple picks down the road. The hope would be that the picks come after their window closes, and as ours is starting to open up, giving us some young talent on a rookie contract.

 

You make an interesting point. Some NBA experts believe Milwaukie is not that much better after the trade. Lillard is a better scorer, yes, but Holiday is a much better defender, and he still scores 20 points a game.
