    There's no way toronto would trade OG for Nurk.

    Ya, that's the obvious hang up here. I dunno if a pick would sway them.

    Hard to trade an injury prone player on the last year of his contract for value.

    i would flip him in an instant for PJ Washington (if we get Simmons) and have posted similar ideas in this thread, but it's prolly a pipe dream.

    The post you responded to didn't say anything about Simmons; it was regarding Sabonis and Nurk.

    No way Toronto would consider OG for Nurk.

    I'm pretty sure you are right and we would be selling low on Nurk.

    Just thinking out loud here - but Indy also has a player whose value has cratered due to injuries. They take on Nurk for a one year audition, we take on TJ Warren??? Big gamble!

    Right Sabonis and Nurk would never work but Simmons was in the proposed trade being discussed, so I thought why not bypass a whole lot of the moving pieces and just bring Simmons here.

    Can we wait with this trading Nurk till, maybe, December?

    I would like to see us try to get Myles Turner. He’s not being used as much this year. Would be much better than Nurk.

    If you just have trade ideas that you're pitching, regardless of what player they're for, you can just post them here. If you making a thread that's about discussions regarding trading a player and whether it would be prudent then that's probably worth a thread but starting threads just for trade ideas for RoCo or just for trade ideas for RoCo and Nurk seems kind of absurd.

    Mods you can feel free to merge those other trade idea threads with this one.

    I’m sick of seeing Nurks whine face every time he’s called for a foul, usually 3-4 times in the first half. If you can flip him for value do it, highly unlikely he resigns here for any reasonable contract.

    If there is a way that we can come up with Grant and Turner for CJ, RoCo and Nurk, that would be transformative for our franchise. I think this trade could actually get done. I happen to think that RoCo still has a lot of value around the league. So if Indy is looking to retool their roster instead of rebuilding completely, I think CJ and RoCo would be good for them. Giving up Ant would probably be necessary to get Grant. LeVert has shown throughout his career that he is capable of running the point and playing the three. They're two separate trades.

    Not sure why Indy would trade Turner now? he's dirt cheap for two years?

    Well, CJ is a great scorer and would fit really well in a back court with a Brogdon, RoCo could start at PF for them, moving Sabonis to the 5, with Brogdon and CJ freeing up Sabonis to do his thing and like us they haven't been successful with their roster as constructed and should be willing to shake it up.

    I’d love to trade him. But he sweats the fuck outta Dame and would come back if offered reasonably

    bro this thread was buried when i created the roco thread. http://www.sportstwo.com/threads/roco-trade-ideas.371374/

    happy for it to be consolidated, though.

    today's thread.... i dunno about that one.

    Yeah, I think putting them both in here makes sense because they're both trade idea threads not so much player discussion threads.
