Has anyone mentioned the Celtics?

Please elaborate. How would Hood fit there with Tatum, Brown, and Hayward? So would Hood be happy being the 4th wing? Would Boston want him for the long haul or would they rather his anticipated money on another position of need?

I think Hood's best situation is Atlanta. They aren't a premier free agent destination (but they would have his RFA rights), they have money, and he could play tons of minutes.

And they have the late draft picks (Houston and Minnesota) to use to get him from us.

The only thing I would want from them is their own pick or Collins. They are not giving those up. Late first round picks are a meh asset, hardly worth anything.

I kind of think he fills their position of need this year and it may be a little leverage play against Smart in the same RFA.
 
I didn't think Burks had the nasty in him, but after seeing him lose it on that smart phone I think he eventually ends up speculating in some form of human trafficking. Probably southeast Asia.

What's the goal if we dump Burks? Who are we trying to sign?

I'm not very sure. What is certain is that Burks is out of favor and a waste of 2018-19 money for us. He is not an asset we could trade for an expiring by himself.

Hypothetically, we could target a massive salary dump deal using Favors and JoeJ if we knew we didn't have to pay Burks his $11+ next season.

So give up and asset (like Hood) to get rid of Burks, just to take bad salary back to get an asset? Don't see the point. Yes Burks is on a bad deal but if there's no glaring reason to need the space, then it doesn't make much sense.

Disagree... first round picks are gold in the NBA... late aren't amazing obvi, but there is value there. Maybe you do AB and Hood to Atlanta for one of those picks and flip the pick for Niko.

Would you trade AB and Hood for Niko? I probably would... so you involve Atlanta and get the 1st necessary to facilitate the transaction.

I think Hood has to be be pretty significantly more valuable than Mirotic on the trade market. If we use him simply to get Mirotic and offload Burks, I'll be super disappointed and sad to see him gone.
