What would you give up to rent Conley?

GVC said:
This is incorrect. That rule only applies to non-expiring players who are waived after a trade. The Grizzlies could trade Conley, and still re-sign him in the offseason.

Oh. Thanks for the clarification. That makes sense.

You wouldn't give them trey? I would like to have conley for the rest of this year and the playoffs instead of trey burke and then idgaf if we dont have him after this year. We have dante to start for us next year and neto too. If we want to find another short chucker of trey burke's caliber next off season, then im sure we can.

Short rentals of players are not always bad if you aint giving anything up.

Sure they can have trey... He's got the Hood poopies right now though.
 
Landing Conley without giving up Exum, Hayward, Burk, Hood, Lyles, Favors or Gobert would be huge. He would make this team very good and have a decent chance of resigning him. But I doubt he is getting moved and I doubt it is for a late 1st and Burke and fillers.

I dont think there is anyway to guarantee that besides his word, so no. But if there was some way to get an extension signed right away then probably a yes. I love Exum and think he is going to be all-star level and a perfect fit for this team but its hard to pass up Conley who is a top 7 PG and that contract would be very good. Conley plays hard on defense, is a good shooter, great in pick and rolls and a good leader.

Sign and trades happen all the time.

But yea, unless I'm overrating him, he would never settle for $18 million a year.

Good question.
I really dont know what i would do. Im on the fence.
I worry about conleys age a bit. I dont have allot of faith in exum being a star either.
 
I thought the title asked what I'd give up for Cooley. Bummer, I had some good material.
 
Today's moves are the beginning of the end for MEM. Cutting salary and collecting assets. If the writing is on the wall and Conley does not intend to resign, MEM will be heavily considering a trade at the deadline.

Would Burke/Booker/picks get it done?

If we trade them our OKC pick AND our GS pick, maybe. But I still doubt it.

6'6" PG's with shut down D don't come around very often. Exum has all the potential to be great. No way do you trade that for an above average Conley. I really think people on this board underestimate Dante's value. If he'd been healthy this year you're looking at a player averaging 12 and 5 with extraordinary defense and blossoming play making ability.

12 and 5, huh? So doubling his assists and increasing his scoring 250%? That's a wildly optimistic guess. I'd be interested in seeing who the other 2nd year PG's are that made such huge leaps. And only those who also averaged >20 mins/per as a rookie, Obviously there might be some that played sparingly as a rookie and then got 20+ their 2nd season.


Ok. I'll admit it could happen. That was nearly the leap Jarrett Jack made, His minutes also increased from 20 to nearly 34, so not as impressive when adjusted on a per minute basis.

It took this guy 3 seasons. And he wasn't 19-20 either. . .

Not quite. Stockton averaged 5 assists his rookie season in 18 minutes. He was a play maker from Day 1! He also shot 47% when he DID shoot. Exum shot 35%. Also, Stockton was not a wuss and not afraid of contact. I saw Stockton play as a rookie and Exum is NO Stockton.
