2024-25 Trade Rumors Thread

Get him and let him rest and trade him again in October after he plays a few games. I mean we would win more with him on the team so we had have to find a way to pump his value without adding back too many wins.
Isn’t Brandon Ingram a free agent next year looking for a new $50 million per year contract? You trade for him now, it’s to let him expire and clear your books or it’s to get his bird rights.

I thought the reason the Jazz wouldn’t trade for him before was because the deadline to extend him had passed and he resisted being traded to Utah. They didn’t want to trade for him - just to have him leave this offseason.
 
Supposedly the Pistons are looking at rerouting KJ Martin and are angling for a bigger trade. Could be Sexton or Collins potentially
They were under the tax so could have done Tech for Sexton already but they grabbed a couple seconds.., maybe like a buttload of seconds for sexton? Orlando or Detroit still make so much sense.
 
Doubt we see a Collins, Sexton, or Clarkson trade. I think Collins -> SAC was real as everyone has reported, but Sexton and Clarkson likely never had much of a market at all. I'm guessing we got offered a couple of seconds Sexton and decline, Clarkson zero offers unless we were paying picks.

He's not getting that contract from anyone, so it may be worthwhile just to have his bird rights for a potential S&T?

Orlando makes no sense because they don't do trades and love all their players on a team that ranks 29th offensively. I mean, it makes sense but they themselves do not make sense.

Detroit/Utah have a history of trades so I could see them working a deal under the radar of leaked rumors

And they do have a boatload of good seconds that could be packaged to a contender with tax concerns that have a first. Tech I think could be rerouted but dude forgot how to shoot.

Orlando is big dumb if they don't do something.

Orlando isn’t going to make a move. They should, but their history says that they’re more comfortable being sellers instead of buyers on the market.

I feel like the Jazz still have another move to make, but I can’t think of what it could possibly be.
 
Man, I think I would have taken this for Collins? Crazy to me if Milwaukee wanted Kuzma over Collins
I think the salary implications were really important. Kuzma also is more perimeter-oriented which *theoretically* compliments Giannis more. Collins is for sure a better player, and it is worth noting that Kuzma was complete booty next to Lebron. I think he is basically a fraud in terms of real contributions.

Collins would have gotten them under the second apron too.
