IMO they can probably get some of the Raptors guys ...
Trade up? What are you willing to give up?
- Thread starter stitches
- Start date
I was listening to some podcast and they said Lamelo and Scoot actually have a friendship already. IMO it's probably premature to assume they wouldn't draft Scoot and keep them both and try to make it work. Their transition offense could be special with those two...
Another hypothetical Scoot-> CHO idea, this one is more realistic. CHO really wants Scoot and believe in him + Lamelo.
Would you take Terry Rozier in a salary dump? He has about 3/$75 left on his deal. CHO owns the 27th and 34th picks in this year's draft, and don't forget that Ainge is the guy who drafted Rozier. If we get some picks to come along with Rozier, we could use them to move up to 6 with ORL.

We know Danny likes Rozier ... there used to be "untouchable" jokes about Rozier for a while when he was in Boston, because Ainge supposedly loved him. I can see such a move happening. Not sure I'd do it... I have to crystalize a bit my thoughts on where this team is and what our goals should be. It just feels like the wrong type of deal. We already have tons and tons of picks. In a few years we won't have enough roster spots to roster all the picks so... late 1st, early 2nd right now is not very appealing to me. If we get a lightly protected future pick... that's something else...
I don’t think 27/34 is enough for me to take on Rozier at 3/75M.
Fair....that was my first instinct as well. But I think 27+34 might also be enough gas to move from 9 to 6.....and when you put it that way I think I would do it if you really like someone at #6. I'm sure CHO has some future picks as well that could be included as well.
Whatever a fair deal is for taking on Rozier, I would be interested in having that conversation.
I see it more as an avenue to get more gas to trade up in this draft. Like would you take on Rozier if it meant we go from #9 to #6?
I also don't hate the idea of giving Rozier a chance at redemption. His value is at his lowest right now after a tough season, but I could easily see him getting back to neutral (or just less negative) value after a season with us. I do think we should be in the business of flipping players like flipping houses.
That's the thing. Do we not already have plenty of assets to use for such a move without sacrificing the direction and building possibilities of this team? I'd understand it if we didn't already have like 20 1st round picks in the next 5-6 years...
I would be more inclined to do it if we weren’t brining back Clarkson so that would be a factor to me.

The blazers guy was a hard no on Beal, Towns Lavine… he covers the team so not an infallible resource but said the defensive oriented wing is what they’d be after.
It’s basically the raps deal to lose and I stated such but… Massai works on his own timeline and several are skeptical he will trade one of OG or Pascal. It just seems like they might move Simons no matter what they do with the pick and I’d have interest in the pick or Simons… feels like a deal we can work into and Porty has given up excess value in other deals and are really at a tipping point here with somewhat of a deadline.

Lamelo is super talented but I have my doubts on him. Think his trade value might outweigh his actual value to a high level winning situation. Charlotte is such a bad organization that it might be that stink sticking yo him unfairly. I’d be concerned in the reoccurring ankle injuries. That might be one to revisit in a year if his value continues to decline. I think they will either take Scoot and make it work with Ball or take Miller and avoid the whole issue.

Can someone more knowledgeable and/or diligent than I tell me if it’s possible to extend-and-trade Clarkson on or before draft night (officially or UNofficially)?
With extensions now able to raise at 140%, it might actually make sense to extend Clarkson where before it didn’t. If he were to opt-out and extend, his max starting salary next year would be $18,676,000. That honestly sounds about right to me.
TLDR; does the CBA even contain the possibility that Clarkson can be used on or prior to draft night for a trade?

Black at 17… yowza.
He can be extended and traded but the max is a 5% increase and only two additional seasons added.

I know. I had him just after Wallace until recently. I keep going back and forth on him.

I like Black at No. 9 but I also thought Jimmer was going to be a sure fire NBA star so that shows what I know.
Whaaa? Can you cite the source (I acknowledge my laziness)?
Just a terrible, terrible idea. Get rid of the most improved player and guy with amazing stats. First guy ever to hit 200 3s with 100 dunks for a guard who cant shoot 3s. Great idea if you want to suck forever.
Similar to a sign-and-trade arrangement, a team may sign an eligible player to an extension and immediately trade him to another team. Such an "extend-and-trade" is limited to three seasons, which include any seasons remaining on the player's current contract. The salary in the first season of the extension can have a 5% raise over the last season of the existing contract, and subsequent raises are limited to 5% of the salary in the first season of the extension. The 5% limit also applies to both likely and unlikely bonuses.
