Top 5 Targets for Summer 2018

[Handlogten's Heros]

I've wondered the same thing but HH seems certain he's a significantly better player which is basically good enough for me tbh.

I haven’t watched him a ton so don’t read too much... when he shoots I think it’s going in every time... also he has some game off the dribble... when I have watched him I’ve been surprised at some of his moves.

I like him enough to do 1 or 2 years at MLE.... I’m really leery of doing anything that screws up our 2019 cap space unless it gets us a key building block. Wish Belly was 5 years younger.

What do you guys think about a trade built around:

Bucks get Gortat
Wiz get Udoh and Jerekbo
We get Dellavadova and draft considerations.

Seems like the Wiz could use the massive savings, the Bucks need a big man, and we could harness the Aussie irritant. Plus, we should end up with #15 if we help both these teams out...

I don't think we need to worry about adding a third stringer PG. Let's get someone who can make a real impact.

Ideal signing would be Paul George. I'd be happy with a shooting big like Bjelca, but I don't think he's a meaningful upgrade over Favors.

I don’t think he’s any kind of an upgrade over Favors.

So they actually weren't a luxury tax team last year, but they project to be this year (around $5 over) and definitely next year. If they want to keep Oubre and Satoransky and the rest of the team intact, they will stay over the luxury for quite some time.

Porter is indispensable to them, they will keep him and trade Oubre this offseason. They will try and package Mahimi's toxic contract with Oubre.

 

[Coach Ellis]

A.) Swap Alec Burks for DeMarre Carroll (plus a future 2nd round pick if needed.)
B.) Draft two high upside guards, wings and/or stretch 4’s.
C.) Keep Thabo Sefolosha.
D.) Extend Favors and Exum to short (2/3 years), but fair contracts.
E.) Make a financial decision about Jerebko/Udoh once you have the contracts for Favors and Exum figured out.
F.) Use the MLE to add another offensive guy like Joe Harris, Mario Hezonjia, Nemanja Bjelica or Tyreke Evans.

Run it back and hope someone like Favors, Exum or O’Neale makes a significant jump, plus a bump in productivity from Mitchell, Rubio and Crowder from their 2nd year being with the franchise and having an offseason together.

That's what I was referring to. I think we could make a draft day deal which lessens their luxury tax impact for this budget year and saves them a ton towards next year. Something like our nonguaranteeds for Gortat.

I think the rule about the non-guaranteeds went into effect the minute the season ended. Their salaries don't count in a trade.

I believe Jonas is the only one who has a guarantee date in July, so this is not possible with Udoh, and I’d imagine Exum and Favors would likely hang around on the market past July 6, or whenever, anyway, but I suppose by then we’d have a better idea.

NM. I guess both Jonas and Ekpe guarantee on July 9.

 

[Medianz]

much better range. He can absolutely fill it up from very deep range

Better IQ. He was a Point Forward in Europe. He would excel under Coach Q.

 

[Ron Mexico]

Porter is indispensable to them, they will keep him and trade Oubre this offseason. They will try and package Mahimi's toxic contract with Oubre.

I would prefer Oubre, I wanted us to draft him. He would be great here. He can defend 4 positions.

I would take on that bad contact to get Oubre.

I think the draft considerations are the whole point, but considering the lack of specifics, maybe not?
