2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

IDK, the Jazz can't get hit on every fringe prospect.

I agree... I'm not saying DL should have gotten Morris... just saying it's a not funny coincidence. Maybe we like something about their program or it may just be coincidence we ended up with Niang and Long.

I agree you can't look back at drafts like some on this board and say we could have picked xyz prospects because they were drafted after we picked.
 
Gallo and Jabari have, essentially, the same contract, other than Gallo's is guaranteed for next year. In that sense, I don't see any more for Jabari as a move for Gallo would come first, and be much more likely to happen for Favors straight across, rather than Chicago wanting something besides expirings.

Trade Exum and Thabo to San Antonio for Mills and Bertans to help Pop beat the league without threes.

Hot take... if Gallo is healthy he helps us more than OP Jr., Niko Mirotic, and maybe Khris Middleton. And his contract is a better value than what those guys get next year.... but you can't ignore injury and that is the only reason I think Clips would trade him mid-season.
 
Gallo was also one of the names mentioned when Hayward was boning us... the front office had interest... not sure if the feeling was mutual.
 
Gallo shooting 47% on catch and shoot 3s... gets to the FT line almost 7 times per 36 and shoots 92% when there. TS% of 62% (Rudy is 67.5% for reference).

He also had this quote after hitting clutch free throws "free throws are such a mental game and it's just you and the basket. I have a great relationship with the basket on the free throw line and so we kept the relationship going"

I'm in!

I've always liked the idea of Gallo, and he would help us if he stayed healthy. If we don't make a major move before the deadline and we strike out on our primary free agent targets, I would be very interested in trading for him if the Clippers sell him to open up cap space.

Over the past 4-5 hours I’ve totally turned over to the Gallo side. I’ve always been pretty lukewarm on him, but let’s heat this stuff up! He’s a good now and later move. Just dust off those Exum trades and get him TF out of here.
 
@Saint Cy of JFC and I rehashed his (Gallo) injury history a while back... and I think I came to the conclusion that he's not as injury prone as you'd think. Last year he tried to come back to early from the glute injury then broke his hand. His knee injury cost him a year in Denver, but they botched the surgery so it cost him a lot of the following year. So it's really one injury.

Also, maybe he can help our other guys develop a relationship with the rim.
 
Alright, so follow-up any Gallo trade with the following:

- To NOP for Solomon Hill and 2 second rounders, or 1 second rounder, or just Solomon Hill.
- To Detroit for Ish Smith.
- To Brooklyn for Jared Dudley.
- To Atlanta for Jeremy Lin.
- To Atlanta with TB and Tomic for Dewayne Dedmon and Vince Carter.
 
Ok... so do two moves. Send Exum to Atlanta for Deadmon and Carter, +/- Bradley, and trade Favors +/- Bradley to LAC for Gallo and Beverley.

Rubio / Beverley / Neto
Mitchell / Carter / Allen
Ingles / Korver / O'Neale
Gallo / Crowder / Thabo
Gobert / Deadmon / Udoh
