Exactly this. We have no need to make any offer to Phoenix. Wait for them to come groveling. They have the opportunity to get three picks back,...
You’re right. It’s not enough return for Brooklyn. They can two picks for Cam alone. They aren’t getting enough return for parking Beal’s salary...
Definitely Phoenix. If this gets done, it’s probably going to be some super-complicated four team trade.
We aren’t already?
I think you can use Jabari’s injury as an excuse to “bring him back slowly” off the bench for the remainder of the year. You can point to Tari’s...
This can’t be upvoted enough!
They’d be swapping one declining $50M player for another, so I doubt there would be drastic improvement. But the Suns seem like the only team that...
He’s really just an example of the type of upgrade we could make. I was using it as an illustration of how much havoc it creates when you make a...
It’s a pretty good comparison, but would anyone trade for Jaden McDaniel right now? Minnesota gave him that contract based on his trajectory at...
You’ve got to have quite a bit of confidence to walk around with that mustache.
I don’t think it’s as easy to simply make a trade now and then dip under the luxury tax before the end of next year as you make it seem. Those are...
Overall, it’s probably about the best we could hope for. Jock for Olynyck works straight up salary wise, but it’s probably going to cost you...

Don’t expect a deal bringing back salary beyond this year. If we do nothing but pick up our player options (Fred, Jock, Holiday) and let all our...
But Detroit wouldn’t be inflexible the way Phoenix is. And Beal isn’t a bad player, he’s just a bad fit in Phoenix. I would expect his numbers to...
It's not the move itself, but the fact that a team he put together is #2 in the division. We are not catching OKC no matter what we do, so a move...
I think it makes us a better team. I just don’t think any GM would have the fortitude to actually pull the trigger on that kind of deal with a...
It would be unprecedented for the #2 team in the division to trade away their 3rd leading scorer and top assist man in the middle of the season. A...
But until we actually acquire that player, we have to pick up the option. We have no backup plan. We should turn our expiring contracts into...
I get them confused all the time
