    Once we know the plan or direction of the team we can answer that

    I am fine keeping Grant since the offense is going to need some talent. He can give you 20 plus a night with good efficiency.

    I am also fine keeping Grant. Just don't run so many ISOs. I want to see more...."Player movement; Ball movement."

    can't believe we're in year 4 of sharpe's career and we're at 'well, jerami grant has to start to keep his trade value from cratering inside of the existing crater.'

    Don't worry - it will only continue until 2028.

    Kind of like a poor man's SGA actually.

    Good at attacking, garnering FT's, solid wing defense.

    Stay or go, time to get this back to the top spot.

    1. A 3 forward rotation of Deni, Toumani, and Jerami is strong.
    2. His contract ends when Jrue’s does.
    3. His fashion sense ups the overall average of the Blazers.
    4. When Dame comes back, he has Grant as an ‘old’ buddy.
    5. His dollars going on for a bit prevents other bad signings (mostly).

    We have only pulled 2 trades with LAL in our history according to the internet. Last time was 1980. This is the team we have traded the least with. The last time we got a 2nd rounder that turned into Kersey.

    So sounds like the Lakers wouldn't even want to ship off their crap unused parts for Grant?

    upload_2025-7-2_16-33-35.png

    Same salary this year and Vanderbilt has same 3 year contract. So for LA its basically getting 3 years of Grant for $40 million total - not too many dollars. But sucks if we can't even get rid of him for such little/zero value.

    I always hated the idea of having the increasing salaries for all of Nurk/Ant/Grant... we were projected as a lottery team every year we signed these guys. We should've done declining dollar deals so they at least had a bit more trade value at the end of their deals.

    Gotta be honest....... I'd rather keep Grant. That's a steaming pile of shit and Cronin has shown that he won't offload a contract just to offload it and bring back garbage.

    Could Vanderbilt play a defensive backup role for us? If so this gets us out of 2/3 of Grant contract.

    If we think Grant can accept a reduced role probably better to roll with the roster as is and see how it goes.

    Problem is that Grant can shoot. Or at least he has shown in the past that he can shoot. It's all going to hinge on his attitude.

    it's not the worse thing in the world, like I mentioned somewhere else, he keeps Deni and Tou from being complacent,

    Has anyone floated this one? Bulls are sick of Patrick Williams, I think, and might want a veteran influence on their team.

    Alternatively could they re-route Okoro (unless they actually value him)?

    Don't forget that Washington BROOKLYN is literally required to ACQUIRE salary ($11M?) to reach the league minimum, so...
