Trade Ideas Thread

Curry's has been up around 15-16% though. CJ has the ball constantly and Seth is usually off the ball. Seth isn't a ball-stopper. Hes a spot up shooter.

 

Yeah, I was trying not to exaggerate his defense because that is tougher to judge by stats so I went with a safer answer.

 

I'm not trying to hate on Seth but the next time he passes out of a pick and roll will be the first time this season. That's obviously a slight exaggeration but not by much.

 

Well Seth doesnt play with Dame, or Nurk much so getting assists passing to ML, Or ET is much harder to do. I guess I dint really think of seth as a black hole but Ill have to look for a few games.

 

I started watching for it about 20 games ago. It's shocking how little he passes.

 

Honestly when the bench comes in I pretty much get straight to being annoyed that theres 5 bench players out there together. then I desperately start hoping that its not one of the nights where as a group they decide just suck... Ill watch for it more.

 

I'm with you on that. Part of me wants CJ back in with the 2nd unit and part of me wants them to just run a completely different offense. Curry should be running off at least 2-3 off ball picks per possession. You are right with who Curry is playing with but ET gets assists to those other guys, why can't Curry?

 

Hes only ran like 5... lmao. Hes barely had the chance to run pick n roll, after having a year and half off and switching teams.

And hes shooting a pretty good clip out of the pick, so it's not a bad thing. He's not stopping the ball by doing that.

 

Blake Griffin is target 1A IMO. Hopefully the Pistons continue to lose and decide to go full rebuild.

DET Gets: Evan Turner, Maurice Harkless, Zach Collins, 2019 & 2021 POR 1sts
POR Gets: Blake Griffin, Reggie Bullock

Lillard (36) / Curry (12)
McCollum (36) / Curry (12)
Aminu (15) / Layman (15) / Bullock (18)
Griffin (30) / Aminu (18)
Nurkic (31) / Leonard (12) / Griffin (5)

 

And then do this:

WAS Gets: Meyers Leonard, Al-Farouq Aminu, Caleb Swanigan, Nik Stauskas, 2023 POR 1st, RTS Another 1st?
POR Gets: Otto Porter Jr, Jeff Green (TPE)

How good would this team be? Contenders?

Lillard (36) / Curry (12)
McCollum (35) / Curry (13)
Porter (33) / Layman or Bullock (15)
Griffin (18) / Green (30)
Nurkic (31) / Griffin (17)

 

Why would New Orleans want those two for Davis? They'll be rebuilding. They'll want picks and young talent.

That Griffin trade is possible if they reset. Two firsts and a high-level prospect. Pretty solid.

 

New Orleans says no.

 

Honestly, I don't think it would cost us two 1sts for Blake. His contract will deter most teams from trading for him which should lower his value quite a bit.

 

Do they say no if we mortgage our whole future? If we do a Boston/Brooklyn deal? They get CJ and Zach our picks in 2o19, 21 and 23 and the rights to swap in 20, 22, and 24.

Someone told me that we can't get AD to play with Dame anyway because they're both max players or something, does anyone know if that's true?

 

Incorrect. Because we signed dame to his extension, we can still trade for AD. The rule is you can not trade for 2 players with their distinction, which is why Boston can not trade for him , they already traded for kyrie

 

I have a feeling Kyrie might be gone from Boston after this year and possibly as early as the trade deadline but more likely in the off season. Boston has lots of guards and wings especially ones that can handle the ball and they have Rozier that they would like to probably get more playing time and has been the starter with Irving out. If it's the difference between Davis or Irving, I know which one I would choose and Boston has plenty of quality filler with young players and picks.

Also for the record, Lillard's contract is not a max contract as when he signed his extension he agreed to take less than the 30% of the cap he could have.

 

Well ET doesnt get assists to himself heh. . I get what you’re saying though.
ET’s also the guy with the ball a majority of the time.
