    Williams is a big-bodied PF/C who can't be trusted to stay healthy
    Pritchard is a back-up PG who presumably wouldn't play if Scoot and Ant are both here and healthy
    An unprotected first from Boston will likely never be in the top 20 between now and 2030

    We can most certainly do better than that for Holiday.

    Ayton and Camara both IG official, nothing on Jrue. I think he's gone by Monday

    I've had a few in the Jrue trade ideas thread, including a variation on your Boston proposal. Chicago is currently my favorite

    I ask again: why does Chicago do that? It vaults them from first round exit in a sweep to... also first round exit, but maybe they win a couple.

    They thought they had something with the Levine, demar, ball trio, they just extended their center, so seemingly not ready to pull the plug.

    Because they’re still trying to win with LaVine and DeRozan. Why did the Twolves trade their future for Gobert? Dumb GMs do dumb GM things.

    Ball/Lavine/Derozan/Vucevic were 1st in the east in 21-22 before Ball got hurt. If Chicago thinks they can recapture that by replacing Ball with Holiday, maybe they make that deal.
