Except you left out the question mark, which leads me to mistrust you. The question is for Tpup; I think the sequence of the posts is quite clear.
well, the question mark seemed to be aimed at the second part of your statement where as the first part came across as a statement of fact. and thus I asked a question. Sorry for inconveniencing you and not sure what any of my posts had to do with trying to get you to trust me. I never made a statement of fact.
Well if the goal is to create a better cap situation this summer then trading him during the season does make some sense. Like you I don't believe Olshey would actually pull the trigger right now.
It sounds like they aren't interested as much in Gordon for CJ but would rather move lesser parts and include a Draft pick of which they have one 1st and two 2nd round additional picks in addition to their own between now and 2020. @hoopsjock was correct in his interpretation but now I can't find his interpretive post. The Ringer was just a story of what a writer thought would make sense. Knowing Orlando would like to make some changes, I reached out to someone who is in the loop for certain trade discussions around the league. He indicated the above....that ORL would likely be interested in CJ but with a 1st round pick as the main piece coming back to Portland along with possibly a lesser piece or two for talent.
Sacramento and Orlando both send their picks to Portland. Or Sac sends their pick to Orlando. No fucking way Olshey does this, but I would.
Thanks for the clarification. So as far as we know, Portland has no interest in anything Orlando has, but Orlando is interested in CJ.
Sacramento doesn't have a 1st this year. It's unprotected to Boston (or Philly if it's #1) unless you meant a 2nd round pick (Sacramento has Orlando's pick lol). Do you prefer that or the same 3 team trade idea I had that cuts a ton more salary?
Fuck I forgot about Sacramento’s draft pick. That’s why I like this site (tradenba) better, they list the picks. Here: edit: You know what, nevermind. Sacramento isn’t giving up enough. Forget I said anything.
Do you think the Kings would take on Turner if they got Vucevic with no picks either going out or coming in?
http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=yaerrwmt Blazers get Orlando's 2019 1st too. Edit: I think we create almost an $18 million trade exception too.
I'm not a huge fan of it, because it feels like punting on this season for a cap space plan. At least by keeping Vuc and Turner, I think we can stay just as competitive as before the trade.
Here, I think this is a little more simple. I don’t think Orlando would be excited about taking on Meyers. Sac gets Vuc but they have to take on Meyers. We get Orlando’s pick. Bada bing bada boom.
