Potential Trade Targets

[KqWIN]

I’m ready to just blow it up and do the process for real. Definitely understand the costs of standing pat. Maybe getting smacked in the face the next 4 games will push us one way or another. Consolidate… sell off… push some chips in… idk but we won’t stand pat through the deadline I think.

Yeah….Lavine isn’t the most amazing option. But what are we actually doing by overcrowding our rotation with mediocre players who don’t fit together? Congrats, we get the 9th pick again and he will probably be buried on the bench. Meanwhile another year of Lauri Markannen just wasted away.

I don’t care which direction….but we need to start making progress moving away from our current position. Lavine can be seen as a win now move, but if we trade 2 or 3 for one that also opens up another space in the rotation.

Honest question, what's the difference between Kerr's treatment of Kuminga and Hardy’s treatment of Kessler?

Sounds like Hawks are doing a one year rebuild dip… or aren’t opposed to taking a step back. So our assets would be acceptable if we wanted to go get Murray if that report is true.

Ochai, JC, and a first for Murray and Mills… we throw in some bedazzled glass frames for Quin so he can take his look next level.

Oh yeah I'd go along with that. But I think I'd try to hang on to Ochai a bit more to see what he's up to next season.

He’s basic. Quin will love him.

Who uses the term "bland and garish"?

We should call Atlanta and say, "Hey, we've got a big man who might interest you. He's shooting 37% from three and is averaging 13.8 per game. You interested?"

We should remind them we made a down payment… that’s for sure.

I know you are thinking this because Royce, but Royce always had a sense of hidden versatility to him. IDK if that makes sense, but he always seemed like a really smart player who was capable of doing more, he was just limited his actual skill level and/or athleticism (kind of the theme of the Quin era role player). But he would have flashes of finishing, dribbling, passing and he was able to hit shots from 3.

Ochai can basically only finish in transition and shoot corner 3's, and the latter is ice cold for the past 2-3 weeks.

I feel like that was Quin's thing, smart players. Not basic. Not that Ochai is some dummy, he just doesnt process basketball at the speed Quin would like.

I'd rather have Bogdan from Atlanta than Murray tbh.

Also CP3 is out for 4-6 weeks. Might make Golden State a bit more motivated to deal sooner rather than later.

Royce was also one hell of a defender. I sometimes think Ochai is a great defender, other times not so much.

Clarkson to the Knicks makes sense with the IQ trade. They have no bench scoring currently.
