Yeah, I also don't really like RJ that much given how much he is getting paid. I'd rather just keep Bojan. He's essentially getting $24, $26, $28, $30 million over the next four years and yes he is still young but currently he has a lot more he needs to do.

It's the same reason I wouldn't like giving Bey a 4 year $80 million contract.

If we're going to give someone 4 years $100+ million I'd rather give it to a guy like Cam Johnson this summer.

Well, we’re getting Wemby in the draft….

So really just need to deal for a legit 3&D guy

Ivey
Cade
*3&D
Wemby
Duren



I would strongly consider flipping Bogey to the Nets for Cam Johnson and fillers

I would rather have RJ Barrett than Jon Collins tho. But I would rather have neither. I'll continue to pray for Weaver to not do anything stupid (unlikely, he always does)

Hoping there is much more to the Bey/Wiseman deal.

Bey >> Wiseman IMO.

I mean I guess deep down, we all knew Weaver was gonna try to acquire more C’s. Right?

I disagree. If Durant hadn’t become available, we would have made a deal. Very encouraging.


But it's not clear who we would give/receive. There's still hours left. Troy usually makes a good deal around this time.. Getting Hami, for example.

Next step is to stretch and waive a few of them.

We better not sell low on Saddiq during the same deadline where we refuse to sell Bojan high

Noel Bey for Moody Wiseman maybe makes sense? I like Bey more than Moody tho.

Would be underwhelmed with a Bey for Wiseman swap. We're already set at the C position with Duren for the future so why add a guy who has looked markedly inferior so far? Unless there are other pieces attached that make it more worthwhile.

2nd rounders are weird. I don't feel like they have a ton of value, but we're seeing 4 and 5 of them included in deals like for Crowder. I'm not quite sure I understand the appeal of amassing so many of them.

Weaver must think really low of Bey to consider a Bey for Wiseman swap unless some other stuff was coming from GS.

Dubs fan here and I agree with you that the Wiseman fit with you guys already having Duren is odd.

A min salary scrub who was just signed was traded for 3 2nds, that's the weird trade imo. How Thomas Bryant net you 3 2nds :crazy:

Wiseman could be long term backup instead of Bagley.
