That would be the Lakers pick fyi.

Was a fan of Bufkin during the draft cycle, but he hasnt shown much of anything. I guess it would depend on the protections on the 2031 pick.

Capela is an expiring and I like Bufkin, the LAL 2025 pick is interesting.

I'm just not interested in trading Kessler, so I don't know what an offer would have to look like.

I would never do it for the SAC pick which is top 12 protected without any future obligations (afaik).

Would have to be the Lakers pick to even start that convo. That what I suggested on the previous page, albeit It was less complex and just straight up Kessler for Zeller+LAL 2025 1st

There's literally no sign of Keyonte ever being NBA-level "great" at anything.
The fact that he's even mentioned in the same post with Mitchell is a joke.

Perhaps I didn't construct the idea the right way.
The post was intended to refer that coaches sometimes envision something different that what is the better for a particular player in a particular environment.
In that sense what Snyder did with Mitchell appears to me to be similar at what Hardy is trying to do with George.

Collins and Sexton have been playing well, so there is some hope a trade can happen at the deadline.

Thunder need Collins

I was thinking Eubanks.

Doubt they want to play a big that mediocre

I was just thinking of salaries. I doubt they want to spend a lot on a couple month injury replacement.

 

[HermanG]

Eubanks was signed mid-June so cant be traded until mid-December due to the 6 month rule.

Good catch.

OKC should definitely get someone as a temp replacement. They are currently playing guards and small forwards at center.

 

[SoberasHotRod]

Yeah, just checked the trade machine and OKC doesn't have the salary to match for Collins.

The only center we have that could work for them is Kessler, and I don't think they are trading anything significant for a temp replacement center and we're not giving up Kessler for anything less than significant.

Just for fun though... Kessler for Cason Wallace works....

With Zion out I wonder if NO gets more aggressive on Kessler too. Between LA, NOP I think we could get a decent offer if we really wanted to.

Kessler is definitely our best trade asset and I would set the line at one good pick. I wouldn't even care for two more crappy picks. In fact, I'd be interested in moving our crappy picks sooner rather than later.

How can the Jazz get their pick back from OKC? Is Kessler straight across for it underselling? If so, what would be fair to ask to even out the value?

I understand the Jazz can just keep tanking to duck the protections, but the Jazz have swap rights to both (either) the Cavs’ and Wolves’ picks in 2026 so it has way more value to the Jazz than it does the Thunder (I wonder if the Wolves just don’t have enough juice in the WC with an aging Gobert and Conley + not a lot coming down the pipe for Minny).

Kessler for the pick is way too much. I think OKC sees the writing on the wall with the pick. I'd wait until after this year to approach them unless they'd do something like the Cavs pick this year (later in the season).

Maybe they'd want Eubanks but he can't be moved for a month.

If Griffin out in NO is feeling the pressure this season that is the team to approach. They have some trade constraints with the cap but there could be a deal for Kessler that makes sense.

 

[KqWIN]

Yeah can’t say I care much about getting that OKC pick. We already have it as far as I’m concerned.

 

[The Jazz Wonderbra]

Doesnt the OKC pick convert to a second round pick if it doesn't convey in 2026?

Jazz just keep the pick if they beat the protections, period.
