Trade Deadline: Feb 9 @ 3:00 p.m ET

I'd rather get a first tbh.

 

Darko had a decent 10 year career. He was a bust for a #2 pick but he had some productive years.

 

Throw in Toppin and the trade works money wise for Hart

 

Of course. But 1sts for expiring role players are tough to come by.
I'd do hartenstein and toppin for Hart, if we could then find a taker for nurk

 

I think Vanderbilt and Thybulle will be Blazers

 

Both? Kinda redundant, no?

Seems like an overcorrection.

 

It would be an upgrade if we were moving GP2 and Winslow. None of the 4 can shoot but yes I would rather have Vanderbilt and Thybulle on length alone.

 

Dame has repeatedly vouched for Vando. Chauncey has been singing his praises since last yr (check out the postgame after a Minny game early last season).

Thybulle is also a Goodwin client and has worked out with Dame over the summer in Phoenix. Outside of Mikal Bridges, Matisse is probably a guy Dame most supports bringing in.

 

I think Matisse is ridiculously good on ball. Vando is terrific as help. But it would be tough to hide both on the other end.

 

To POR:
- Korkmaz
- Thybulle
- Vanderbilt

To UTA:
- Keon
- Winslow
- minimum player from Philly
- seconds

To Philly:
- Hart


Does that work? We get further below the tax and have an extra roster spot as is to absorb a guy.

 

Agree. It would be more situational if we had both on the floor at once.

 

A defensive lineup of GP/Thybulle/Grant/Vando/Nurk is very enticing, ngl.

 

There you go!

 

That seems like an overcorrection on wing defense (especially weak shooting wing defense- could you ever play Vando, Thybulle, and GP2 at the same time in non-defensive-only possessions, or even two of the three?), but overall, that's not terrible value.

 

Oh it's not my idea. I think if Vando can be had for Justise, Keon and a couple of SRPs then those SRPs should come from us and Josh should be traded for depth in the post.

This would be two separate trades and would also give us the room under the tax line to pick up someone off of the buyout market if we wanted.

 

I'd agree, although I've only seen Reed briefly a couple of times.

really don't want Korkmaz, at all. And unless Utah want's him, for some unknown reason, or it's necessary for matching salary, I'd keep Keon if the Blazers are trading Winslow

if Portland is trading Hart, Winslow, and 3 seconds, I'd think Vanderbilt, Thybulle, and Reed should be the least the Blazers get back. Be nice to get one of Milton or Niang but that might be asking too much....actually it's not if Philly really wants Hart
