2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

We should have snagged Monte Morris from Denver. He would have been great next to Mitchell. At least he can shoot the ball unlike Rubio.

You did ask a dumb question.

One that in every conceivable way you failed to answer or even address in any way that wasn’t a non-sequitur.

Also not a dumb question. I’m assuming you’re just trolling like you do because that chain of correspondence is ****ing non-sense.

First point: What teams do we think Favors would be most valuable to? I can only think of two teams that are trying to win (so exclude Suns, Bulls, Cavs, etc.) who would significantly improve with him: 1) Washington, and 2) the Clippers. Are there other similar teams that I am forgetting?

Second point: If these are the two teams for which Favors is most valuable, it seems like they would have to be the most likely trade partners. That being said, I will be surprised if we don't trade Favors for OPJ since: 1) DL liked Porter and he tends to fixate on players, 2) Washington's GM (Ernie Grunfeld) is on the hot seat and this trade would allow them to perform better this year and have better cap moving forward, 3) OPJ is overpaid so there won't be too much competition, 4) OPJ is out with knee issues so he is not likely to be traded before Jan 15th, and 5) the Jazz 2019 cap space is less valuable than before since their major FA targets (Mirotic, Middleton, Harris) are likely to stay and there are a lot of teams with cap space.

Favors would make a difference in Boston (where he could start at the 5 next to Horford at the 4) and in Philly (where he'd back up Embiid and play some 4, basically replacing Amir Johnson).
 
Russell went for 22 and 13 as Brooklyn wins 6th straight beating the Lakers. This quote makes me think of what he and Donovan could be. But half y'all hate him so doesn't really matter I guess.

Denver will have a “decision” to make when IT is healthy... monte Morris is tearing it up and they’d be dumb to give him less minutes for old man IT... so wonder if he’d become available for nothing... a semi-healthy IT gives that second unit some scoring and creation it needs... even if it isn’t all star IT efficient.

We’d get lit up but the second unit isn’t amazing defensively anyway. Just a thought I had.

Yeah, I’d mentioned this a bit ago. I’m down. But bring back Jerebko and bring in Olynyk.
 
This is a very interesting read. https://www.sbnation.com/2018/12/19...oklyn-nets-rumors-free-agent-trade-salary-cap

Russell is the best player we can pursue who helps us now while also a core piece for the long term. We could entertain guys like Ntilikina and Fultz, but they aren't ready to help our aging roster right now. We could also look at guys like Collison and Lin, but those guys are band-aids who don't tip the scale for now or the future.

When I talk about an "aggressive" move, this is the type deal I'm referring to. Brooklyn definitely considers themselves a "big free agent" destination. In order to target the big fish, they need the money.

I propose that we get Russell AND take on Crabbe. By doing that, Brooklyn is able to dump their worst contract while they lose Russell. They would have money for two big players by doing this deal. Since they might lose Russell for nothing this summer anyway, this would be wise for Brooklyn.

Russell and Crabbe for Rubio, Thabo, Niang and our 2019 1st rounder
