Also... there is a report from Ian Bagley and others that it would take a significant package to get JC so for now I think DA is asking for a pick and Grimes... but that's a guess.

Paul Pierce calls for the Jazz to get Trae Young
Also hilarious KG thinks Ingles is so old that he played with Carlos Boozer.
Who knows but I think Ainge values those picks.you really believe we could get the laker rookie hood, get them to remove their lottery 2027 draft pick 1-4 protections and another 1st unprotected for Sexton? i love sexton, but thats not a real offer by the Lakers.
We'll see for sure. I don't think Portland is playing ball right now based on the reports and Brogdon likes it there supposedly. I think they SHOULD be moving him but IDK. I said in my older post the better value for that package is Brogdon... but they may not be interested in Grimes and may not have a third team willing to give a first (its hard to find teams in the 20s that could send a 1st).Yeah….I’ll believe it when I see it. And for the record, I think we probably see that by Jc not getting traded at all. There’s a difference between what we could get for JC and what it would take to get JC from us. Would not surprise me if we any to hold onto JC tight. I could see either side saying no to JC for Grimes because players can mean more or less to different teams.
My POV, I think Grimes has more league wide value than JC…and I say this after dunking on him most of this thread. JC+Ochai could be what it takes to get done. Otherwise, I think it’s much easier for NYK to go elsewhere.
For example, I think Brogdon is much more obtainable because POR should be much more willing to give him up than we would be with JC.
I don’t think that DA would hamstring us like that. Not this year with so little at stake. I see Clarkson as the top trade candidate for the Grimes deal as he’s the closest modern day version of Jamaal Crawford - a straight bucket especially in the clutch. Due to his age, the perceived potential of Grimes and the draft asset, this is a deal I think Ainge will take (if he can get a first).Say goodbye to playoffs once we trade sexton and clarkson.
Or maybe DA is cooking something else?
Like a contender?Add Trae young and we’re gonna look like Denver? lol
just lookalikeLike a contender?
I think what they were referring to is a team with a dominant, unique big (Maarkanen / Jokic) and a walking bucket to play off of him (Trae Young / Murray).Like a contender?
