Hmmmm pretty solid move for both teams since Raps apparently never want to rebuild. Rebalances rosters.
I am definitely against trading Lauri, and I get the concept of "well we don't want to trade him so you have to absolutely blow us away", but that is a fantastic haul for him. Yeah, the Clips picks are nice but cmon. Cason is absolutely a blue chip prospect in my mind, the 2024 Rockets pick is more likely than not to be lottery, getting our own pick back would be massive, Dieng is an interesting young stretch-4, unprotected picks 5-6 years out are always valuable (even if OKC is primed to be a juggernaut, **** can definitely happen), I wouldn't have to watch THT anymore.
Still against trading Lauri, but that trade seems to be a massive haul beyond what I think we can expect.
Well, one of those picks *could* covey at some point if things go right for those teams. It will also eventually become a 2nd rounder, which would be a high 2nd rounder.That's like one of those fake OKC packages for Lauri in which they included all of their own picks that will likely be in the late 20s while keeping all the Clipper firsts for themselves. Why would we accept such low-ball?
Except we don't really need the cap space so we can just sit and wait on all the long term deals to become short term deals in a couple of years. Plus if we don't want those long term deals for ourselves, why would any other team want them? We might have to accept other teams low-ball offers if we want to move JC right now whereas expiring contracts like THT and KO are the leagues most sought after commodities that will always have value irregardless.
Woj says they are still trying to move him.If Toronto was able to pull off a similar scale last year for FVV, they'd be sitting real pretty right now.
Still, a future with Scottie/IQ is still pretty great.
Will be interesting to see what the plan with Siakim is now.
He's had a meh year compared to last season, will be interesting to see what he goes for.Woj says they are still trying to move him.
Atlanta has been mentioned with him consistently. Not sure what the package is… maybe a three teamer with Murray.He's had a meh year compared to last season, will be interesting to see what he goes for.
Can't think of any obvious team off the top of my head.

Yeah, no sense. You dont want to take the ball out of Williams/SGA's hands to put it in Siakim's. Not a floor spacer at all.OKC?
Non floor spacer next to SIakim at the 5. MehhhhAtlanta has been mentioned with him consistently. Not sure what the package is… maybe a three teamer with Murray.

Yeah, I know, I just can't see Atlanta making that move on a fit that feels so flimsy.Just telling you what has consistently been reported… not what makes sense.
Yeah, but they get 4 picks. Collin Sexton is from right outside Atlanta. They save money .Pretty sure they’d want Keyonte.
