Good list.
I know beal doesnt make your list but would he be #1 on that list if he were get-able?

Where would you rank brogdon?

I would put Beal #1 because he is under contract the next couple years and I think he fits next to Donovan.

Brogson isn't on my list because I don't think there is any reason for the Bucks to trade him for anything we would trade.

The trade for Tobias won't happen since the Clippers are in competition with the Jazz for a playoff spot. I do like Winslow a lot as well as Porter.

I think Winslow is only possible if we can get Miami off of the contracts of Olynyk and Waiters. And if we can get them out of the luxury, even better. We need a 3rd team.

The Clippers keep their first rounder if they miss the playoffs. They have lost 5 straight. If they keep losing and Harris shows any sign of maybe not staying this summer, I think West might trade him. The pipe dream for West doesn't include Harris so losing him for a 1st isn't the end of the world.

We could offer Favors and Exum for Beal and the salaries would match up but then we would be pretty shallow inside and I doubt Washing would accept. That's why I believe Otto Porter would be the best option. Still has 3 years on his contract like Beal but he can be a SF/PF combo and we would have a really good stretch 4 which this team needs IMO.
 
Favors is so damn underrated here and is on a great contract with a team option for next year. No way we are giving him up + a pick for a half year rental of Harris or Mirotec who are unrestricted free agents this offseason.

I guarantee that the Jazz are getting calls on Favors. They aren't going to give him away for peanuts.
 
What is the underrated aspect of Favors game? Serious question.


Being a really good dude doesn’t make you an underrated basketball player.

But do you buy that the extremely tough early schedule played a huge part in our disappointing early season win loss record now?

We were playing ***** basketball. That's why we had a disappointing record. I don't know why so many people on this board look for a crutch or excuse when we just aren't playing up to expectation. Its okay to say it if its true. Sure, a tough schedule doesn't help when you aren't playing well but it doesn't take away the truth that you still aren't playing well. It just doesnt.

This winning streak against bad teams has been great but we still aren't playing as well as last year. And I'm still leery of buying in and jumping back onto the belief train. Our defensive rating is a point and a half behind last year's defensive rating. And we've had a healthy Rudy all season. Last year he was out 20+ games and we had a better defensive rating? Not a good sign at all. We are giving up nearly 5 PPG more this season. Our defensive rating and opponent ppg during our big winning streak last season puts our defense at any point this season to shame. We still haven't returned to the level of defense we were playing last season. And as a team whose identity is defense, that is not good. Our offense is not benefiting from the rule changes at all. We basically have the same offensive rating as last season despite it being easier to score league wide.

I still see us winning 45 ish with this current group. And I still stand by my claim that we have taken a step back. Although I would LOVE to be proven wrong this time.

I don’t think the argument is that he’s underrated here - we all know what he’s capable of - the argument is that he is playing out of position. He’s a MODERN DAY CENTER. Not a PF.

If he’s happy with his role as mostly a bench guy to come in for Rudy/Crowder/and eventually someone else - great. But he could really flourish as a C on some other team. And he should ONLY be moved if we get that perfect PF for our system in return, or the perect PG.

But I’ll say it again. We’re going to need him against GS. Cousins on that team is downright frightening.
