2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

I wonder if Charlotte has a more than usual interest in Grayson Allen since he spent so much time in Carolina. If we added him as a sweetener to a Charlotte deal to make it:

Favors, Thabo and Grayson
for
Batum, Bridges, and their 2019 1st rounder

Would that be fair for both sides? Are we giving up too much? Taking back too little? I hate to give up on Grayson so early, but Bridges projects to be a starting SF or PF for us down the road, Batum helps some now, and who knows what the 1st rounder could be. The only thing we really sacrifice in this trade is summer cap space (which we aren't guaranteed to get anything) and Grayson Allen (which I'm not sure where we stand on him).

favors?
I think we need more to let him go
trade by a player who solves or has high potential
and Bridges it's not that dude
 
I don't watch them either, but his FGA/36mins and his usage rate is the lowest of his career, and his usage rate is amongst the lowest on the team - only Biyombo is lower. His minutes are still up, his other stats are still around his career marks, and his percentages are very good. He looks like he's the 5th option on offence no matter who else is on the court with him, so I wonder if coaching is the issue, not the player. Maybe our egalitarian offence would benefit him. And he's still a good three-point shooter.
I've watched enough Hornets games to feel confident in saying that his FGA and his USG% are at career lows because he simply isn't the same athlete he was a few years ago. In Clifford's system there was a case to be made that he was being misused, but with Borrego the Hornets are playing much faster and Batum is back at SF instead of forced into the SG role, but he simply can't get by his man anymore and while his other numbers might be around his career averages, he's got paid on the assumption that he would provide closer to his numbers in the first couple of years with the Hornets instead of his current form. He can't really play point forward consistently either anymore, so I'm not really sure where you'd be able to find the production from him to make swallowing the contract even close to worth it.

He might be able to play stretch 4 but at the price tag I think you'd be better off paying Thabo vet min money or close to it, and using that money and finding a better option.
 
No thanks to Love.

No thanks to Batum.

Jazz blow all their flexibility for years by taking on those contracts.

I still think Favors, Exum and draft picks will be our best trade package for down the road.

If there’s no real good options heading into the trade deadline, then maybe you make a move to get a guy on an expiring that you want Bird rights for and then look to make a big deal leading up to the draft - just have to hope that Favors and Exum stay healthy and ball out for the rest of the year.

So let's break it down: Wiz want:

1st round pick - we give 2019
1st round pick - we give 2021
Young Player - Exum (they just said young player :))
Another Player - Favors

Is that fair? Is it what Washington wants? Is that something we would/should do?
I would do it I think.
How long would beal be under contract?

if allen gets traded he'll just end up hooping well for another team like how hield ended up going from new orleans to sactown
 
I would give up X and the 2 firsts.
Gotta take a big swing at some point. Beal is as big a swing as we could possibly hope to take.
Beal, Spida, Stifle tower could be a legit big three.

Do any of us think X will be as good as any of those three? Do any of us think favors is part of the plan going forward? Do any of us think that a late first round pick will be as good as those three?

We would still have korver, Crowder, Ingles, and Rubio who would probably suddenly look much better with some combination of Crowder Beal Spida Ingles or Rudy starting with him.

Niang could play some back up 4 and udoh back up 5 (we could pick up some other dudes too.)

That starting 5 could be deadly if DM is who we think he is.

Are we giving up too much?
Lmao
I should be more positive like @fishonjazz
Wish you would be, but feels like your shooting for the moon with that one
love is an excellent option
possible trade
The problem is the 4 years of contract
Oh my good god!! You’ve got to be joking.

I still think that dispensing D-rose last year was a mistake

Hindsight is 20/20. He was horrible before that game he went off on our jazz.
