Darius Garland

[Handlogten's Heros]

BTW I love Garland. Better passer than Don. Would be over the moon if we got him. If he can stop getting weird *** injuries that would be great. I think they were kinda dumb to go for Don with him on the roster... if it rocked the boat enough to get him to ask out that is some 3d Chess by DA.

I think you may be able to build a contender better around Garland than you can around Donovan. Even if Garland isn't as dynamic as a scorer.

I don't think we want Donovan 2.0 in a small lead guard like Garland (even though he's great). I do think we could potentially facilitate an interesting 3 way trade though.... something like this: View attachment 14745

The Cavs are trading an all-star for Gary Trent JR, THT (on a 1 year deal) and Simone?

They have 4 really good players, but have pairings that don't have a great fit. I ultimately think they trade Mitchell to BKN.

Brooklyn, NY, or Miami maybe. Nets for Harris, DFS and picks. NY Barrett, Quickley, picks. Miami Herro + picks.

I think Brooklyn and Miami make the most sense and I think Brooklyn's package is a lot better. Those Suns picks could be really juicy... they also have some Philly picks. I'm sure Nets would try and have the Cavs eat Simmons deal but that would be a no go unless they add more stuff.

Speaking of dumb PG ideas, what about Ben S**********.

Kidding, or am I?

If he’d have 2 more years on his contract at about $25m per year, I’d actually be interested. But 3 more years at $35m-$40m is just too much.

He has 2 years $78M left on his deal.

Fair point -- probably would make sense to route both of the picks to Cleveland instead of Toronto.

You’re absolutely right, I didn’t look closely enough. That does make him more interesting to me. One year to try him out and if it doesn’t work out he’s a big expiring the year after. Still too much money though, but he’s the ultimate reclamation project that could benefit from a fresh start in a small market. Shame he probably doesn’t have the mindset for it. He’s got the size, playmaking and defense we’re after.
Also a shame he’s a bit of a douchebag.

If they are trading Garland they are trading him for win now pieces. Why are the Jazz giving up their win now pieces for a 6'1 guard?

A thread is a thread, but there is no deal here.

We can give picks to TOR, Garland to UTA, OG to CLE ?

The asking price for OG has been insane. Why are we giving up that many picks for a 6'1 guard? I'd rather get OG tbh.
