How many Hawks owed picks can Atlanta get in that deal?

This would be amazing for Spurs. Murray to lead the win-now team, and picks #1 and #4 to build long-long term juggernaut around Wemby.

Wemby
Sarr (#1)
Sochan
Vassell
Murray | (Topic? #4)


Don't see the Hawks landing the 1st pick to just trade away along their second best player to get their own picks back

Not sure why it wouldn’t be Caruso, I’d pay a big asking price to put him in between Trae and Ingram..

But if he is not available.. I’ll go Thybulle is very available.

Probably lets Atlanta get 21 and Portland clears their tax issues and settles for seconds..but I’ll go;

Thybulle, Ingram, 34 to Atlanta
Capela, Murray to NOP
Liddell and 21 to Portland

Portland tax problems go away and upgrade a draft prospect.


I just have the Bulls likely running it back (incorrectly so) in real life.

The Thybulle version is threadworthy... is there a future 1st NOP could trade instead? The Blazers have a lot of picks in this draft


I think you're right about the Bulls running it back and could see them keeping Caruso until his contract expires (either re-signing him or letting him walk). However, I think they should move in a new direction and trading Caruso makes sense.

He also makes sense on Atlanta, but if I'm the Bulls GM I'd ask for something else. Maybe the Sacramento pick and AJ Griffin? I'm not sure what would be needed to make the salaries work out.

Trail Blazers get:

Something like that. I’d rather it with Caruso. And think Portland owes 34 to Atlanta. Thybulle isn’t worth a first.

Atlanta should only do it if Ingram is resigning. Someone else pointed out the CBA allows 20% jumps in extend-and-trades now. Ingram could take a 4yr170ish contract. But even if he just agrees to add 2 years.

Can’t trade a good contract for an expiring one when the talent is so comparable IMO.


Wonder where they seen that?

This is from the new CBA

4) The following rules apply to Extensions entered into in
connection with a trade pursuant to Section 8(e)(2) below:

Why? Perfect draft and lotto outcome to do just that. No Wemby to be had at #1. Playing with house money after moving up from #10 to #1.

Franchise changer landing #1 doesn’t mean drafting #1 for Hawks.

In my scenario they still win now trading Murray for Johnson - who is nice age and fit next to Trae using a Murray trade to accomplish. Still drafting #8 (better spot than when they went into lotto night) AND get more draft capital.

Trae for Towns swap should be put on the table. Wolves don’t ideally want Trae next to Edwards (fit and money) so enter Spurs…

To Spurs: Trae + Moore Jr

To Hawks: Towns + Johnson (or Vassell works too) + Spurs Draft Capital

To Wolves: #1 + Capela + Jones

Wolves solve money crunch and exciting outcome getting #1 overall for Towns (yes even in this draft). Being Sarr or Risacher to backfill and be longterm fit with McDaniels.

Hawks move one of their guards (Trae) and improve their draft capital. Draft capital from Spurs could be #4 or #8, all own picks back, really in combination they prefer in such a trade.

Okongwu | Towns
Towns | JJ or Hunter
JJ | Hunter (could be dumped on Spurs if priority)
Johnson or Vassell | BB
Murray | #4 or #8

Edit: I didn’t read…

But that almost reads as it’s the first year of the extension. Not the first year of the contract?

So 120% raise and then 5% raises.

But maybe I’m reading that wrong. We’ve had varying opinions here

This thread is bizarre and, more importantly, WAY overthinking things.

The Hawks will trade Murray and Capela for players that can help them on the wing and maybe a future pick.

I disagree. Sure this draft is not viewed as one of a time, but the difference from pick 1 and 8 exists.

Johnson is a terrible fit for the Hawks too, zero defense, terrible at everything except scoring(which is also average).

Seems like there's better trades for Murray to land a much better player for the Hawks that alows them to compete. I don't think they can tank even if they get Johnson for Murray either way.

I hope Johnson proves me wrong, but I was so disappointed in him. I get that controlling it's future is important, but if Hawks will keep Trae, they should not trade Murray for picks. IF they decide to trade Young, then I'm all for it getting those picks back

No, I got that, it's just such a bizarre premise. Johnson + #8 for Murray feels like it's in the ballpark, but then you're effectively asking what it would take for Atlanta to move the 1st overall pick, with a specific focus on reacquiring their own picks from SA? So to answer that question, all of them?

Pels:
Ingram and Nance for Ayton and Brogdon

Blazers: Thybulle, Brogdon, and Ayton for Ingram and Landale

Rockets: Brooks and Landale for Murray

Hawks: Murray for Thybulle and Brooks


Move 2024 picks around until everyone is happy.
For the Pels, Ingram went out on a down note, they're losing Valanciunas and they get a big man that won't clog Zion driving lanes. PG improvement. No long term commitments to anything. Can prob package three mid first rounders and move up if they want. Or they could try and hit with 3 role players and shed salary in future years
For Hou, they get someone better than Brooks and the back court always has two of FVV, Jalen Green, or Murray. Opens time at the 3 for Amen/Cam/Eason. Likely get 7th back from Portland.
For Atl: They build defense around Trae and likely another pick... prob 14 from the Blazers. Maybe 14 to Pels
For Blazers: Get out of cap hell and get the no 3 pick for 7 and 14

Not married to the pick movement, just an outline.

Correct. When Hawks are dealing with Spurs, they have unique opportunity because Spurs own Hawks future.

Imagine Hawks organization, going into lotto, if you said to them: “Instead of picking 10th, how is 8th, which will cost you Murray for Johnson swap - BUT - you get ALL your draft capital back from Spurs too?”

I see Hawks having zero interest in Spurs Keldon Johnson. The team desparately needs better defenders and would easily choose local boy Devin Vassell over Johnson in any negotiations with San Antonio. He can both score and defend.

I actually think it is starting be more likely that they keep Dejounte Murray and trade Trae Young instead. While Young is a better scorer, Murray is a much more complete player AND Hawks were far better defensively when Murray ran the team instead of Young.

If Spurs want to deal for Young as well as potential number 1 pick Alex Sarr, then Hawks could get a haul that includes all their picks back, #4 and #8 in the upcoming draft, as well as Devin Vassell. It will allow the team to properly rebuild.

Cheers!
They make these so hard to follow

*EDIT
ok now I've read the full CBA regarding these rules!

Extensions for trade
If they sign extension prior to July 1st, they can only get 5% (105%)

After July 1st, they can extend at 20% (120%)
Not confusing at all right!!!!!!
Yes, quiet day at work, LOL
