Jrue to Portland / Simons to Orlando

[djFan71]

Yeah I agree. I like the Boston part as a Boston fan but if the goal of the Magic is getting Simmons and the goal of the Blazers is adding some solid value for him, it does seem like Boston is not needed here.
I think Portland would have to want Holiday for this to make sense. Maybe they would?

What do we like from BOS end? Ending up with KCP is bad for 26-27, imo. Reap is a nice story, but we only save $8.5m next year and are stuck with KCP, or need to use an asset to move him by next summer. I see it got edited, was it better for BOS originally?

Boston does save about 13 million in 26/27 and 37 million in 27/28.
There might be better offers for Jrue…IDK,
KCP is a bad contract yes but he is still a useful player.

Fair, I had a phase where I talked myself into KCP as well. But not after he pissed Al off, lol.

I can see Orlando using a first round pick for Simons, but not for 2.

2 FRP for Simons is too much.

No need for Jrue. Simons for 16 and Isaac works fine. This is the deal, it's long been foretold by the wise men of our village. It is prophecy.
