Official Jerami Grant trade rumors/ideas thread

They only have three and a half months to do it.

 

Brooklyn... Not Washington.

 

Cam Thomas QO is about that much.

 

why would we trade for p will? just to get rid of grant? i don't think this move excites me, curious what others feel

 

In answer to your question, YES. The advantage of PWill is simply that he would be lower down the hierarchy and there would be no sense of obligation to start him or play him x minutes over the guys we want to play.

 

I'm going to go back and correct it!

 

Jerami Grant will be a Blazer at the start of
next season. If not, it would be done by now.

 

Sell him on being the focal point of the second unit. Him and Scoot(not that I like that part). If he complains he can stay home with an “injury”.

 

That's not how this works.

 

Grant for Kuminga

 

Yeah we will see. This transaction window isn't closed yet. The teams who struck out or didn't even try may think they need someone with Jerami's skillset. Another thing that I've been thinking is that I wonder if other GMs really do view Jerami with his contract as a negative value asset, or if they're just trying to bait Joe into including a pick with him. I'm not even sure if Joe is trying to get rid of Jerami.

Another thing that I find interesting is and correct me if I'm wrong but we still haven't seen the Jrue trade become official. A lot of stuff is up in the air for our team and roster. It will be interesting to see how things shake out. I'm assuming that we pretty much have the roster that we'll start the season with but I'm anything but sure about it.

 

Book it bro…

Some other people have figured that Grant would be a deadline move. Don’t hold your breath waiting for a Jerami Grant move this summer.

 

what are we waiting for? for him to increase his value? at the cost of tou and deni's playing time?

 

I'd love that.

 

As a critic of Cronin, we can't say he hasn't been aggressive. I don't think we need to bend over backwards to move Grant, but if there's an opportunity to move him and it makes sense for the cap sheet and our roster, yes.

 

1st unit

Jru
Sharpe
Deni
Camara
Clingan

2nd unit

Scoot
Thybulle
Grant
Murray
Yang\RW3

Honestly we probably need his scoring looking at that.

 

I think at this point Jerami knows he's gunna have to outplay both Camara and Avdija to see the floor, his salary is no longer a ticket to guaranteed minutes

 

Last year we just benched Sharpe the games all 3 were healthy - so maybe that's the plan.

 

I hope you're right as far as whose playing time is prioritized but I doubt any of the three of Deni, Tou or Jerami will play less than 30 minutes per game. I know it likely won't happed because Jrue Holiday is Jrue Holiday but I just wish we were going to see Scoot, Shaedon, Toumani, Deni and Donovan as our starters on opening night with vets like Jrue, Jerami, Tisse and Rob as vets off the bench. I won't be mad if Jrue is starting just a little disappointed, however if Jerami is starting and any or Shaedon, Deni or Tou aren't, I'll be pissed.

 

If he's startimg, playing well, and we're winning, no one will complain
