Trade ideas

Not any more. I was shocked at his defensive rating. 117 is not good. He doesn't block a lot of shots. He doesn't get a lot of steals. He is not a great rebounder. Maybe he is just sick of Toronto is not not trying this year.
Defensive rating doesnt mean **** for perimeter defense.
 
OG is a tough situation for Toronto because they can’t just lose him for nothing. I don’t think they should confidence in resigning him. Here’s what I think happens:

1. PHI trades what they got for Harden for OG.

2. Follow up trade is to trade for Lavine w/expiring salary.
 
I considered that and that is why I included young talents in THT and Sensabaugh. The problem with Toronto is they are probably going to lose OG for nothing this summer. Whoever gets him has to have the same fear that he will not sign with them this summer. I do not think OG is worth a max contract. I would love his bird right to pay him something in the 20 to 25 million and still be able to go over the tax threshold. I MIGHT consider 2 FRPs but then they might just be able to offer him this summer and win. Especially if they are winning. Toronto is in a very tricky situation. I just don't see a lot of offers out there for a player that is 3rd best on a good team maybe 4th on a contending team. his stat line is average at best.
Anunoby signed his current contract on December 21st 2020. This is over three years ago and means that he can be renegotiated and extend.

OG makes $18,642 million this year. With the 140% rule, the most Toronto can offer him on an extension is a deal starting at $26,1 million. If this was enough for him, Toronto would have extended him already.

If we trade THT, Sensebaugh and some picks for him and find someone who can take Olynyk, we have enough room under the cap to renegotiate and extend him. If we can get him up to $25 million this year, the extension can start at $35 million.
