Sure but you're proposing 4 team trades that move out four of our best players to different teams. There's almost zero chance of that happening. But coming up with a possible trade between the Knicks and Blazers for Brogdon..... is not 99% unlikely.
Anyone could come up with a better trade than this. For example: A chair from the blazers locker room For Cash Would be a better trade. But that's just an example.
i'd buy Meyers Leonard's old chair. There's a hidden compartment for his micro machines star wars toys.
Thank you for giving it a shot! HOWEVER: I really don't see Orlando swapping Wagner alone for Anfernee, let alone Wagner and a pick. We should be so lucky.
This could be split up but I'll put it all in one trade to end them all. I just want to say that I still think Indy should be going after Jerami to play SF with Siakam at PF. Had to do two trades because fanspo won't do 6 team trades but realistically it should just be on three team trade and a trade or trades that could be done as a 4 team trade or a two team trade followed by a three team trade. We waive Oladipo and Harris but keep Green on for leadership. Scoot, Shaedon, Walker, Smith Jr., Deandre, Black, Tisse, Tou, Bari, Duop and Green would be an 11 man rotation where we could keep constant pressure on defense with player and ball movement on offense. We would be above the salary floor but if the Nets didn't want to go into the tax they could throw whatever salary(ies) they didn't want back at us to keep them out of the tax.
He's actually good now - they like him! Plus the idea of having him on our roster makes my skin crawl.
Debated other swaps to find players, but this was a full OKC route. We nab 3 more picks, and we go in to the offseason with close to 60 million in cap space to take on more unwanted salary to grab more future assets.
I admire that you have accepted that Portland will never sign an actual free agent they want, no matter how much cap space we have. You have successfully killed the dream!
I think those here who hold hope that winning is just a move or two away plus a little time passing are likely ways off... they'll need to add some big pieces to this mix even if it does develop. Clearing the decks of bad contracts and loading up on picks may be the fastest most realistic path to becoming an actual contender instead of just another team in limbo without real hope fluctuating between one and done playoff appearances and the outer orbits of the lotto. If management were to take such a tact (& assuming there were multiple top picks coming back), to me it would indicate that they have belief that their young core will develop. I'd be excited. STOMP
