    They just got pick #23 in this trade. I'm speculating that a future pick is more appealing to them.

    May as well get both Love and Porter. ET/Moe/Meyers/GTjr out, KL/OPjr in technically works.

    Two sides to that and neither can really be proven. Pops has been big on sitting stars. He did it last year and lost in the first round where as a 7th seed and if he didn't do it so often might have been able to pick up a few more wins, possibly giving them a better seed and maybe improving their chance to advance.

    He's also older and more likely to miss half the season.

    That's pretty cool. Where'd you do that at?

    On basketball reference, you can run for head to head matchups

    I know it's a team game, it has a big effect, versus head to head, but I dunno about Dame winning the matchups handily.

    Conley's teams are 13-7 over their 20 regular season matchups. In those 20, Conley shot better from the floor, much better from 3, half the turnovers. And 2 less points per game.

    I wasn't really looking at asset equivalence, just salary matching. But if it were feasible, I'd imagine this would be the basics. Capture+_2019-06-19-15-32-25.png

    Interesting idea. I'm surprised that Hollinger's analysis predicts a -7 wins for the Blazers after picking up Love and Porter. Defensive concerns?

    Projected Record Note:
    Projected records are based on the PER of the players in each team’s post-trade rotation.

    I really don’t want old ass white knight Korver... Is a Crowder rental worth a first round pick?

    Yes, because we dump Turner, pick up a couple vets with playoff experience that can help fill roles we will likely need to cover, we'd still have a bunch of expiring contracts to use in trades if they become available, and we don't ruin any cap flexibility next summer.

    Nope. Crowder is a bum. Another high motor forward that can't shoot to open the floor up.

    You can trade consecutive 1st round picks? How did this happen?

    One or the other, they'll have 1 of them.

    I think its top 6 protected in 2020. They want to suck for sure next season. It goes unprotected to the Celtics in 2021 if they land in the top 6.
