2024-25 Trade Rumors Thread

It works in spotrac when I used another teams RMLE but what does that even mean since they missed out on the other thing. shrug.
Its not handling the PPP right... so never mind it doesn't work.
 
Kuzma is such a horrendous fit. What are the Kings thinking?

It doesn't really make sense. Their only backup big would be Alex Len after a Kuzma trade, just awful. Collins can be the backup 5 and play the 4 next to Sabonis. I'm really not sure what Kuzma adds to that team more than Collins, they don't need more chucking.

Additionally, Kuzma has a longer deal (bad money) and is older than Collins. Collins is a better player, is younger, a better position fit, and is on a better contract.

Yeah but Vivek has heard of Kuzma... he don't know this Collins fella. Giving a first for Kuzma would mean the Kangs are all the way back.

It's a damn shame. It would be awesome if we could get a little compensation from the Kings for Collins and then get more by rerouting Huerter to a team like ORL. I know we're all biased here, but it makes a great deal of sense for the Kings IMO.
 
Not only are Sexton and Collins not involved in trades, they're not even in any rumors. I mean these dudes don't even seem to exist to the rest of the league.

Not surprising. They both had negative reps to begin with, and now the stench of tanking covers everything.
 
Playing around with the Spotrac trade machine. We still have our taxpayer mid-level exception to play with. Let's say Milwaukee wants to make a move to drop below the second apron to save some money or make another trade (they could aggregate salaries then). We send the Cleveland 1st this year (we already have a roster crunch) take back Pat Connaughton and get the 2031 Milwaukee pick unprotected.
Can you use the room MLE to absorb salary? Also, wouldn’t there be numerous teams that could do something similar (SA, OKC, Detroit come immediately to mind as possibilities)?
