Trade Board Cooperative Mock Trade Deadline - Step 1: Board Vote On Players Traded 

Post#1 » by NYG » Sun Jan 26, 2025 5:07 pm

I'm working on an idea where the board works together to come up with multiple deadline deals. I guess we can start with nominating the 5 best players you think will get traded pre-deadline. I'll go to the next step when we have a few common names included and can come up with deals for them. You can nominate any players you want, it doesn't need to be from the list below...

Jimmy Butler (9)
Kyle Kuzma (5)
Bruce Brown (5)
Brandon Ingram (5)
Cam Johnson (4)
Nikola Vucevic (4)
Bradley Beal (3)
Khris Middleton (3)
Kevin Huerter (2)
Clint Capela (2)
Luke Kennard (3)
Collin Sexton (1)
Zion Williamson (1)
Dennis Schroeder (1)
Simone Fontecchio (1)
Obi Toppin (1)
Jericho Sims (1)
John Konchar (1)
Marcus Smart (1)
John Collins (1)
Bobby Portis (1)
Pat Connaughton (1)
Nickeil Alexander-Walker (1)
Julius Randle (1)
P.J. Tucker (1)
Bones Hyland (1)
Jordan Hawkins (1)
Jaylon Taylor (1)

Nominate yours and I'll include anyone with 5 or more votes in the next step...

I'll be the contrarian and not have Butler b/c that seems fun and at least possible:

Brown
Capela
Huerter
Vucevic
Kuzma


Also, I think John Collins is more likely to be traded that Collin Sexton if only b/c his archetype is more rare. If he's added I would replace Kuzma with him.

You can add anyone you want... you can even list more or less than 5 guys. I counted your votes for both Kuzma and Collins

Am I the first to say both PJ Tucker and Bones Hyland? Because either they want to upgrade and those expirings make good matching or they want to duck tax and both offer paths to that. One of them will almost certainly be traded.

Jordan Hawkins
Brandon Ingram
Jimmy Butler
Luke Kennard

Jaylon Taylor!? CLE is only $2.7m over the tax. Obviously the team is worth paying the tax for, but it would be smart to sneak a year under the tax if possible. The problem is finding a non-rotation player making the right salary to trade.
