The BoyPax jokes are fun and all, but it's time for them to stop kidding themselves. This team is trash, most these guys are, at best, looking at Bogans type $1-2m roles in 3 years. These guys should all be shuffled out for late 1sts or best-available 2nds. You just need to think of playoff teams that might benefit from them.
Meanwhile, it's very important they actually position themselves for bottom-3 record so that we can draft better than #7 again.
Valentine - The guy is a 15mpg slayer. Send him somewhere where that low-minute burst makes sense (10th man on a contender). We'll take a late 1st (25-protected) or two 2nds ; pretty much that's the theme of all these players, maybe top-20 protection if possible. LAL, LAC, HOU, PHI
Hutchinson - No thanks to praying for him to learn how to shoot. Might have to use him as filler with one of the other trades, cause on his own, I can't think of any trade scenario where you get anybody remotely interesting. A defensive specialist wing who can't shoot nor stay healthy? I actually think Kornet might have a little more value. I know you can always trade him for a player who doesn't really play anymore (Sefolosha), but question is if Morey has any picks left after that Westbrook trade. HOU, DAL, LAL
Kornet - Terrible defender, but he can shoot. PHI, HOU
Dunn - OK, the kid can defend and hustle. Nevertheless, he can't score, and we drafted Coby. Any contender likes him off the bench, though. LAL, LAC, MIA, MIL, DAL, HOU
Sato/Thad - Dragic is better, but maybe MIA bolsters its depth and adds some salary instead of expiring over the cap. You need to get a little creative here, as their salaries are too rich for most contender's liking. With how mediocre these two vets really are, I just don't know. I think you hope for an expiring and late 1st. HOU, PHI, LAL, LAC, MIL, MIA
Otto - Hm.
decided to give this thread a look. So many hot takes lol
