    Just hope there are some contenders out there that have enough disposable assets to send back.

    So

    Boston
    Philly
    Miami
    Brooklyn
    Toronto
    LAL
    LAC

    Am I missing any contenders that would love Jrue Holiday?

    I still think OKC should kick the tires on it. They're on the cusp of breaking out.

    New Orleans would definitely welcome him back, no?

    new orleans apparently. herb jones is trade eligible on 10/4. if Herb becomes available, NO would jump to #1 for me. He's the absolute perfect fit at SF for us in this next iteration.

    I actually think picks 2026 and on are going to be the most valuable to us. Imagine having Scoot and Shae just entering their prime in 3 years and having an extra 1st (maybe lottery) every now and then even when we are challenging for HCA.

    wait, does Fanspo have it wrong? Spotrac says Herb is only trade eligible on 12/15.

    nvm. :(

    If that’s the case, then I’m starting to come around to him even more.

    This forum was giving me a heart attack with the OG crap lol.

    They have like 35 future picks. They have like 4 or 5 next year alone. They're already cutting recent traded for 1st rounders. They don't have the space for all their picks. They can easily trade us like 8 picks(obviously unrealistic!) And be mortgaging nothing

    I would love Herb Jones too. Not sure how to make the money match without including CJ.

    Herb would be a home run for sure. Cost controlled for a whole 4 seasons at a steal. Scoot + Ant + Herb + Grant + Ayton starting with Shae off the bench is a crazy lineup for a ‘rebuilding’ team.

    Olshey would say “we’re just re-tooling” lol.

    CBA question - I understand that Jrue can be traded immediately but only by himself.

    Can we only take back a 1 for 1 deal?

    No, they can take multiple players back, they can't trade him WITH someone though.

    no. we have to only send out Jrue alone. Can take back how many ever players as long as salaries match

    Not that they would do it, but if I'm OKC, I offer up a chunk of the draft cache. FFS, they have 8 (!!) picks over the next 2 seasons.

    I'd start throwing out some of those picks to Portland, to see if they'd bite.
