2021 NBA Draft Preview (new thread)

Locke... "the 30th pick could be an asset... or a financial hamstring because its a guaranteed contract..."

Eff you @FAILED STATE I will ignore all this evidence and believe we going to shoot the moon tonight... you can't tell me how to live my life!
 
I wonder if the Jazz could trade Clarkson, get a pick back then trade for Eric Gordon and get a pick back

Basically the Jazz sell high on Clarkson, buy low on Gordon, rehab Gordon's value back to being an elite 6th man.

Not sure how this would work, but I think it's plausible?

I would love this but it doesn’t work salary wise.

Its not that hard. Clarkson makes 12 million a year, Gordon makes 18, Favors makes 9. You can easily send those two out and get Gordon back and save a little bit of money (though it might not ultimately be enough to appease ownership, I dont know). It would have to be a multi-team deal.

I heard Houston might use Gordon as a way to move up to 13 with Indiana… Gordon 23&24 for 13 and expiring contracts… kinda wild because I figured his value was ****.
 
A two step deal that Nets you a pick for Bogey and Clarkson then routing Favs for stuff is something I’d really be trying to do. Allow yourself to use taxpayer MLE and net a trade exception. Adding in some good youth is important imo.
 

This kinda sucks for us. I assume kings keep Montrez and now are out the Favs bizness… unless they want to swap Trez for Favs and expand the deal.

Buddy a solid pickup for the Lakers but maybe he has too much Kings stank on him to be a winning piece.
