Trade ideas

The tough part right now is that I think our guys are actually much better players than they have shown. Everyone has regressed under Hardy so far this year so we might as well keep any younger guys to see if we can rebuild value. I would look to move Clarkson the second we can. I think his selfish brand of basketball sets a bad example for a young team. He is a good fit for a more experienced playoff team that needs his exact skillset.
Well said
 
A lot of talk here (and in some of our other threads) about how to built our team and whether to keep Lauri. I’m definitely in the camp that wants to keep him. My reason for this is simply that this way we’ll have a chance to become a contender much sooner. I'm not a fan of waiting in our situation because trading Lauri and building through the draft and youth doesn't guarantee a better result.

Avdija is secretly having a career year. Currently averaging 12/5.5/3.5 on 50/40/80 shooting split. Not too often can you find a 6’9 guy who can handle the ball like a guard, exact reason he was picked ahead of folks like Haliburton. The upside is obvious.

Washington is a dumpster fire and their coaching is clearly the worst in the league by a fine margin(absolute criminal to not play Avdija 30+min a game). Avdija just also happens to be in the last year of his contract and should be very gettable. A Twolves first should be able to get it done. Would love to watch him and Lauri operating the pick and roll.

they just extended him....
 
Always hilarious when a bad team has a good young player and posters are like "We should go them, it will be easy"

Excuse me? Bad young teams want young players, not to give them away.

I’ve been a fan and mentioned him.

Just saw it... Damn. But whatever Wiz gonna be asking we will still be able to afford it.

It's not like they view him as the future face of their franchise or anything otherwise they wouldn't be allowing their HC to hold him back like that. The moment they fire Unseld Jr and bring in a proper coaching staff I can see him having a breakout similar to this year's Sengun. 18/8/5 shouldn't be unrealistic. That's why we should pull the trigger before he's priced out of our reach.

At a good price. He is still trade eligible. Worth a first for sure but we kinda already have a few players at his ideal position.
We simply lack playmaking across all positions... I see Avdija as a ball handling point forward who can operate 1-4. He will fit anywhere

Every point you made is a reason they wouldn’t trade him…
