    Sharpe, Scoot, Grant and 10 1st round picks for Sabonis.

    They don't have any interesting prospects. That includes Keegan Murray.

    Well Siakam hasn’t said anything, so I have no idea. All we know is Siakam said he wouldn’t re-sign with Sac. Sac would for sure be willing to pay him the max.

    May fever dream trade deadline... a lot of trades

    This one has to be a four team trade

    This one could be three seperate two team trades if the Siakam deal falls through

    I realize these deals put the Nets way into the tax but I think it gives them improved offense and depth on both ends that would make them into a team that could win a playoff series or two and they're in New York so I doubt they really care about the tax.

    We would buy out Fournier immediately. Robinson would probably sit out the rest of the season but we would have him and Rob Williams to dangle in trades in the off season.

    We would have to pick up a couple of GLeague guys. Rotation of Scoot, Shae, Tou, Walker, Duop, Dick, Jabari, Kris, Ibou and a GLeague PG prospect. We pick up future first round picks.

    If that's your thinking for the deadline, you'll be severely disappointed. Miami gives 2 1sts for Brogdon? Toronto gives a recent lotto pick for Dinwiddie?! 4 1sts for Simons and Thybulle? 2 1sts and Walker for Grant? come on
    No wonder people get so worked up at the deadline

    I thought the rule was a team can't sign a player they traded away for a calendar year after the trade?

    besides that, looking at the Raptors cap situation in light of the rumor, they'd have hardly any cap-space to sign any free agent, especially one who wants as much money as Siakam

    I’m not even sure Knicks would do this. I’d do this even without the 1st honestly.


    I don’t think either of the Nets or Lakers would give up a 1st for Hield or Russell. And I’m going to disregard that 1st trade which is a pipe dream lol.

    I’m down for the third trade. It’d be fantastic to get off DA’s contract and get Robinson for two cheap years. Robinson/rookie/Reath/RobWill is a good big man rotation.

    Pritchard only does us a favor by sending that much for Siakam lol. It makes me think an overpay from either Mavs or Kings could be coming for Grant, assuming Kings don’t pull ahead for Siakam like how Boston ultimately topped LA’s trade package for Holiday.

    no doubt that would be a decent trade for Toronto, especially if you assume Siakam might not sign there

    I was just suggesting that if two of the three first's are this year's, Indiana might view it as risking only one meaningful first for Siakam. The Pacers would be really solid in the back court, even after moving Brown & Hield. Siakam could theoretically make them a contender, or at least a dark horse in the east

    That’s a fair point. Raptors subreddit already has a post up about what to do with those two ‘24 1sts. I guess RJ is now being viewed as a positive asset, and some of them think trading for someone like Murray could help Barnes and Barrett contend. They’re basically not planning to rebuild at all. I’m not all that excited about their roster, so I see this as a possible mistake, but we’ll see.

    I didn't see that he would not resign with Sac. Have a source?

    Only thing I saw was that 'sources' claim he doesn't view Sac as a long-term fit

    You’re right, it did, my bad. It’s kind of saying the same thing. Saying he won’t commit has been acting as a no trade clause of sorts, and he’s kind of choosing where he wants to go.

    I really don’t think he’d re-sign in Sac, especially if a team like Philly can make the room for him. Your prerogative if you think “he doesn’t view that place as a good fit” and “he’ll won’t re-sign” aren’t correlated. I see reports Sac would still trade Siakam without assurances he’d re-sign. I hope it happens so we can see who’s right.

    I have no idea why they wouldn’t entertain offers for grant. Hopefully it’s just posturing.
