As long as his contract is better I'd do it too. If he gets a full MLE offer does anyone think the Warriors match? They have luxury tax issues and he normally doesn't play for them.
He turned down 30 mil a year. You'd need it close enough to match Grant. I think it needs to start at 23/year to have a chance.
wait...in the "Big Swing" thread we're talking about Kuminga? There should be a "Big Swing & Miss" thread
Except he's not even in his prime and he's already shown to be very productive offensively. Both of which are very different from when we got Evan. Also, Kuminga is an elite athlete.
Ok, Id trade Ayton, Scoot, Simons, Grant & picks for Banchero, Suggs, da Siva & salary match. At the very least an In the Park hr.
We don't really even know what we have in the backcourt. Let's not jump the gun. After a season of Scoot and Shaedon starting we can reassess.
That makes total since to me....besides Chauncey and Joe have another 5 years? to hit the grand salami....
If the Blazers truly want to play an uptempo style, I think Kuminga would fit in better than most of those discussed.
Kind of mind boggling we still haven't tried that after multiple years of "building the team around Scoot and Shaedon" as Cronin said we were doing. There's a total of ONE player who had been on the Blazers roster longer than Sharpe.
TRADE PROPOSAL (if we don’t get Flagg) Portland sends to Denver: Grant Scoot Williams III Denver sends to the Blazers: Gordon Porter Jr. 2031 unconditional #1 pick (Denver’s own) ————- Ayton / Clingan / Reath Gordon / Walker* / Draft pick Camara / Porter Jr / Murray Deni / Sharpe / Thybulle Simons / Banton / Draft pick * or free agent signing vet PF
wut? Denver trades away the 2 best players in the deal and also have to add an unprotected 1st? c'mon man
….why would we EVER trade Simons to Orlando for Black? the Blazers are going to need scoring. If Ant gets traded, it best be for a shooter.
