We'll have Conley, Sexton and THT.

If not any new trade comes, Butler, Lee and Johnson get the boot

The simple thing that keeps Bolmaro for us is that he plays forward. We have way more guards than forward.

He's 25, had off court issues in his past, gonna be a decently enough coveted UFA for a Salt Lake City based NBA franchise in its year 1 or 2 of rebuild with no previous ties to the place, and after all his real NBA role is 6th man (but has decent efficience and reliable 3pt shot, which drives...

I think Beasley is the guy that has a real market because unlike Clarkson, he's actually efficient, and also has a team option. And that I see lots of talks over Vando's value, and I doubt he's highly coveted before he adds a jumper to his game, as there isn't many teams out there with as a...

Pretty much sure the only reason to start Clarkson (even If trading Beasley, the one I really think gets traded before the season, as I talked in other topic) would be to maximize his numbers. Bring Conley off the bench should make sense, but I have real doubts they'll go for it

I don't think that Olynyk helps winning that much, while actually giving us a needed extra body at center (and one with the added bonus of versality with shooting, that is kinda mandatory with THT, Bolmaro and Vando shooting), but that the real bad part being that not only they choose not to...

I kinda believe the one we might actually be able to trade before the start of the season between Conley, Beasley and Clarkson is Beasley, as there's the team option and he's way more efficient than Clarkson. Any other trade i think might be either someone taking a surprising shot at Gay, and/or...

Conley Sexton Fontecchio Markkannen Olynyk I believe it will be that (not that i'd prefer it)

Olynyk at center may be better than desired for tanking, but i disagree with the notion that we didn't need another body there. Doke been shooting for Exum's injury history, Kessler is a rookie (and was injured for Summer League), god knows how much minutes and contact will he be able to absorb...

I'll go as far as say that the main reason for not doing the same trade (2 Lakers frp), but with Beasley instead of Conley would be to save Ryan Smith money this year (Lakers would still need to be interested on doing that, but...)

I mean, can only think of that, with the bonus of making Detroit better (maybe the best part of the deal)

For sure, but right now there's enough parity (at least perceived) in the league that the tanking race is more about 8 franchises (maybe less), when few years ago it could be about 10 or more, with up to another 10 either considering themselves going for it or under heavy outside pressure to do so

The Cavs team that got Mobley was also much better in how they played on the court than the record that awarded them the 3rd pick, but they got tons of injuries that made imposible for them to show a record on par with how good could they play

Right now they have to cut at least two The more players they add up, the more they'll need to cut. At what point It gets pointless to acquire players as we're cutting them before they become assets ? Not really far from that.

Also think at some point we need to start offloading more players in trades rather than acquiring

Clippers series games 5 and 6 happened

Maybe Markannen gets an invitation for the 3 point contest (or Clarkson/Bogey if somehow they're still around), who knows

I imagine that at least Bogey gonna be traded before the season starts, and that some other guys like Mike, Clarkson, Beasley or Gay (not all, but at least one or two) gets moved too, all for mainly draft considerations, not taking back much winning impactful players for now. Taking that into...

I'll root much more for one than the other, but i'll wish success to both of them.
