    Not with the 15% trade kicker. They'd need to send about $5 million back our way.

    You can't out-Draymond a team that picks up a second Draymond.

    I honestly don't care. Bell gave so much back to the Ducks he can play for GS all he wants. As long as it's not the fucking Lakers.

    We honestly could of kept our three picks and probably still gotten swanigan, Collins, as well as Jordan bell. I think Collins would of fallen to 15.

    KCP to the Lakers for 1 year 18 million. That means Crabbe to Brooklyn is still a possibility.

    Not so sure about that, I think Denver or Miami may have jumped on him

    Nets won't trade for Crabbe, not a chance. They'd rather use the cap space to acquire more picks or talent like they did with Mozgov and Carroll.

    Wouldn't getting Crabbe be kind of like getting Mozgov? Same kind of contract for basically nothing in return. At least they get someone who can shoot with Crabbe.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    They got D'Angelo Russell as compensation for taking Mozgov. Russell hasn't been amazing, but he's still a minor prospect. What would Portland offer them to take Crabbe? Probably nothing, since the Blazers don't want to give up assets to dump contracts. So I don't think the two situations are comparable, really.

    Well, if we also give them a first round pick to go with it, then maybe. But even then, they basically got Russell for taking on Mozgov (they did add Lopez and no. 28 but expiring Lopez had little value for them and 28 is not much), we won't offer them anything nearly as valuable for taking on Crabbe. They received two 2018 picks from Toronto for just taking Carroll's $13M deal which only goes for two more seasons.

    Unless we also give them 2018 1st and one of Vonleh/Swanigan/Collins.

    I don't get Caldwell Pope. He was offered $80M / 5 years from Detroit and turned it down to accept $18M / 1 year from Lakers. Strange.

    OK you are right. I misread your post. I thought you were suggesting that Mozgov and Carrol were "talents or draft picks"....

    Good question. Maybe he disliked Detroit, his teammates, or his coach...and just wanted out.

    Well, it's a higher salary for the year and he can take another shot next year at finding a max deal, if he plays well.
