2020 NBA trade deadline discussion

Keep an eye on Glenn Robinson III for Golden State tonight. He could be a sneaky pickup for the Jazz at the trade deadline. He's playing starter minutes and put up 14/6 with 1.3 stls in his last 5 games. He's shooting 39% from 3pt. He'd give us another versatile defender for our 2nd unit, which might help us survive with Tony Bradley as our backup 5. He's about 6'7" (with shoes), 225 lbs and can guard 4s.

I think some team is going to pick him up.

His D is good? When I hear his name, I think of his dad and his dad's body and think, "no, that dude can't defend the way we need him to."

He's probably about as good of a 3 and D option as any that we could get. I think they'd like to keep him for next year, but not sure how they do it capwise as they don't have bird rights and likely have better options with their exceptions.

I think he's a better option than Niang in the playoffs.

He's cheap. He's on a min 1-year contract of $1.6M. That's like NWG + 2nd to do a deal. He'd spell Royce and bring a lot of the same things to the table.

They still owe us a favor or two for helping setup their dynasty. I think we could flip Mudiay to Minny for their trade exception and cutting a little salary would help GSW to drop enough below the hard cap to sign Ky to a minimum deal. Word is they want to dump Evans... I'd take a flier there if GR was the sweetner.
 
If the Spurs are going to trade out DeRozan or LMA and call it the end of an era, they might also trade us Poeltl, who is on the last year of his rookie deal. Defensively, he's better than Bradley, though I think the Jazz like Bradley.

I'd feel a whole lot better about Bradley if I knew GRIII was on the court as the big wing instead of Niang… My biggest worry is we won't want to put anyone in front of those guys because they are our development projects.

Poeltl is out of our price range asset wise. I think he'd be a part of their re-build... he's restricted and I could see a team like the Hawks making a dumb offer for him, but he likely stays put.

Poeltl is much better on D than Bradley. But I agree with HH: we ain’t getting him
