Roster Addition Wish List

I think Washington is willing to write the year off... that's kind of what they are signaling if they are willing to put Wall and Beal out there. So saving $20M (depending on if OP will waive the trade kicker) and getting rotation guys... Koufos would start for them (they are a **** rebounding team and he's a good rebounder) and Shump has been good this year. They get a young player to say they didn't just dump him for expirings.

If we could put Favs on the table now I think we'd have better offer. I don't think they'd have a lot of interest in keeping Ricky.
Jazz arent going to trade Ricky if they are getting Porter.
 
So what are you
If we get Porter, the starter issues with Rubio arent as glaring since OP can shoot. Also, we keep Favors so that means he can beast the 2nd unit with Crowder.

Starters:
Rubio, DM, Ingles, OP and Gobert
2nd Unit:
Exum, O'Neale, Crowder, Favors

Grayson, Niang, Neto fight for that 5th spot in the 2nd unit.

So what are you saying the Jazz trade is to get Porter?
Alec Burks, Thabo Sefolosha, Tony Bradley, Ekpe Udoh, 2019 1st?
 
@Roy_McAvoy I would say multiple 2nd rounders in my first offer. I like Porter but he is a bad value. I think Washington looks to shed the contract. We have a lot of expirings when a lot of teams dont.

So they do the 4 for 1 trade then or wait until January when Favs can be traded? Hope Washington doesn't get a better offer in between now and Jan 15th? Put Crowder in the deal?
 
When it comes down it, I actually think the Wizards will hold on to Porter and try him with their new nucleus and trade Beal or Wall. Beal & Wall seem to have a lot more trade value given Otto Porter's contract. I don't think it's worth it for the Wizards to trade him. He's worth more to them just keeping him because teams aren't going to give up much to get Porter with that contract.

Wall has a really unique trade kicker issue. Some NBA smart dudes have commented and asked league office how it would be interpreted. If he's traded this year it could cost an additional $15M this year and a little bit over the rest of his albatross contract. If they wait until next year it isn't as costly.

It is complex but it is a enough of a thing I don't think a Wall trade would happen until next year.
 
I don't think we can wait for January. I think Washington will look to trade somebody but only make one deal involving Beal, Wall or OP. That deal is gonna happen soon and we need to be it.

They are good enough to do okay enough to make the playoffs with 3 of Beal, Wall, OP and Oubre. Come 2020 when Mahinmi is gone, they can add another player.

They got to wait. Everyone waits. Rarely does a major deal get done before those dates.

Bledsoe and Griffin were traded early last year. It is not unheard of... not everyone waits. If they have an offer and don't want to risk injury with OP they will pull the trigger. Not like we would be offering a huge return that can't be beat.

Shams also tweeted out they had a pretty contentious practice... there may be some urgency here.
 
Washington won't wait until January. They have too much talent to risk missing the playoffs over chemistry.

It's weird. This team could replace Porter with Burks and somehow be better due to chemistry. Oubre and Morris would start and Burks plays 6th man. This Wiz teams just needs a jolt.

Washington will make a move pre- January 15th... NO could sweep in after 12/15 because Randle is eligible at some point.

If we wait here we will not get the deal... which may or may not be fine.
