Delly, Henson, 1st/2nd and Rodzilla for Hill/Dekker - Dekker to Wiz For Smith/Second POLL ADDED

WOW what a grade trade, only 1 mill guaranteed for Hill which means we saved 18 mill in cap, NICE

clear more salary and buy Giannis/Khris/Bledsoe a banana boat

attract that final final piece

keeping Lopez would be nice but I think he's gonna earn him way to a better contract being such a shooter now

One of the best parts about this trade - this season just turned into tryouts for Middleton and Bledsoe.

And I think Jerryd Bayless is going to be a free agent.

Delly and Henson gone in the same trade. Yeah, the league will reward Cleveland with Zion for this.

I can't say I'm upset by swapping Decker for Smith. Smith at least has the potential to be a useful backup center under Bud. Dekker is kind of useless as an NBA player.

skones wrote:He's considerably less efficient because Jason Smith is actually a jump shooter. He'll take those shots and has done so his entire career. Jason Smith, throughout his career has taken a LOT of shots from 16 feet to the three point line, and has hit 45.5% of them which is a VERY VERY good number, particularly for a big. He's going to get the green light to shoot from deep by Bud, and for a guy who's never really got shots up on volume from that distance, he's one of the more equipped bigs in the NBA to start doing so. He's far more bouncy and mobile than Zeller and as a result is a better shot blocker. He hustles, but lacks the defensive IQ Zeller has. Very blegh on the glass.

Think more along the lines of Miles Plumlee who pops instead of rolls.

TS%'s for Zeller last year: 59% for Brooklyn (when he shot 3's), 62% when he didn't. 5 out of the last 6 years Smith hasn't come anywhere near close to that. IIRC Zeller was shooting the 3 again in the preseason under Bud, then they cut him. Probably just cut him because they acquired Brook, were financially invested in Henson, and didn't want to give up on Thon after the fool's gold of a couple good games in the playoffs. Now replaced him with as bad or worse center with Henson jettisoned and realizing Thon is still a fraud.

I think it's for DeMarcus Cousins. Save this post.

I mean since we closed the deal before 6PM today clearly indicates it's not.

Trade Middleton + Brogdon for Beal --> Start Snell at the 3 in Mid's place to showcase him until the deadline --> trade him + a 2nd rd pick if he performs at current level only in expanded role.

Giannis + Beal + Max FA + go over the cap/tax to sign Bledsoe. Too bad they didn't acquire Dedmon instead of Smith, because I believe they'd have bird right on Dedmon, unlike Lopez.

Another move with Bud’s fingerprints all over it.

Hill played for Bud in SA for 3 seasons.

This will make watching Bucks games less emotionally vexing.

He can shoot the threes and has Giannis's "Good Housekeeping" seal of approval.
