Ainge won this one. I didn’t think you could get value for collins.

Biggest winner here is Collins. Going from the crapshoot of Utah to playing with Harden on a playoff team during a walk year? Huge

Holy carp...Kevin Love is still in the league?

Oh and a Herro/Powell backcourt...no offense, but yuck.

Herro / Mitchell
Powell / Rozier
Wiggins / Highsmith
Adebayo / Jaquez
Ware

Not going to lie, I think that's a fairly solid regular season team.

Powell is a better player. I didn't like the idea of Beal in Miami in the first place. Miami has an excellent backcourt, now. Mitchell, Powell, and Herro is solid, along with guys like Larrson, KJ, and Smith to add further depth.

Wiggins in a Heat uniform looks better since he doesn't have to be the third option now. Still think we need some additional size and we have a roster spot open now so hopefully we can make another move or two.

Rozier won't play and Jovic will. I'd still like to see us add some more size.

We need to trade Slomo now. Lauri with any playmaking on the roster is too good to be a 20 win team.

I love this for the clippers. They have a very complete roster now, with solid talent at all positions. I think this moves the clippers up a level during the playoffs.

If all it was going to take to get collins was a 2nd rounder the kings should have found a way to make it work.

20 win team in the west. So a playoff team in the east.

35-40 wins and a Play-In birth.

Let's see what Chicago can do to match their Play-In rivals.

Slomo for Anfernee Simons.

I like this for the Heat.

Fine with it for the other teams. Now we see if Collins can be as productive on a team with real aspirations. If he can, it’s a decent deal for LAC to balance positions.

Utah cuts a good bit of salary, might flip Slomo for another 2nd or so.

I am slightly confused here.

They were saying Norm Powell had the value of an older Cam Thomas and now he gets traded for poop?

Something is brewing....

We won that last year with Jimmy trying to torpedo the team for more than half the season

I actually like this for Clippers.

Not big enough for Simons unfortunately. Who does fit?

jayjaysee · Post #40 » by **jayjaysee** » Mon Jul 7, 2025 3:31 pm

Yeah, I like this for the Clips. Feels like this is Beal and Collins for Powell and a second.

Like it for Miami either way, but hopefully this means a Terry trade soon?

Utah can turn this into a Collins TPE? Or are they under the cap? No idea what they’re doing. But a second is better than no second I guess, and saving 12-15 mil is nice. Anderson plays the right way to help the kids, if they do keep him.
