"Pacers want to keep Myles Turner while avoiding Luxury Tax"...also BOS, MIN specifically are facing SERIOUS financial complications if they don't offload some salary...how can we help?

Love a crack at Nembhard or, to a lesser extent, Mathurin or Nesmith
or...Divincenzo, NAW, Dillingham
or...Pritchard, Scheiermann, Hauser

some not at all realistic, but ...worth a call

Nembhard and Nesmith would both be worth a look imo.

So I'm pretty sure that we can trade contracts with a team option on the next season and as long as the acquiring team has the contract before the option window expires they can waive the salary.

Our team options should be super juicy for these salary crunched teams

Scenario…
BRK lands at #7 or 8 and ORL at #15

ORL sends: #15, Cole ($13m expiring), ORL 26 (top 5)
BRK sends: #8, DLo $13m x 2+1 SnT
*ORL drafts Maluach

He is currently projected at no 21 on nbadraft.net am I missing something?

Site is bad. It has Boogie Fland at 11.

Can debate if he is worth it or the best fit for us, but he will likely go lottery and potentially top 10.

I wanted Porzingis before Boston signed him. He is the perfect complement to Paolo and Franz.

Don't see why any of Bos, Cle, NYK, Ind would want to trade with us tho.

[pepe1991]

You get Porzingis, he plays next season with us , and where you go from there? Porzingis + Paolo+ Franz+ Suggs = $160M with 2/4 players injury prone.

#1
ORL sends: WCJ, Jett, ORL 27 frp (Top 5)
OKC sends: Nikola Topic, Isaiah Joe

#2
ORL sends: KCP, Cole Anthony, ORL 25 frp(#15?)
BRK sends: Claxton

Select with DEN pick #2

Claxton, Goga, Moe
Paolo, Isaac
Franz, TdS, Caleb
Suggs, Joe
Topic, AB

[Skybox]

* WAS lands at #2, drafts Dylan Harper and choose to develop AJ Johnson as a cheaper backup over Bub Carrington
* MEM is in a volatile state, perhaps coaching decision pisses off Ja and Mike Miller

ORL sends: WCJ, Jett Howard, DEN 25 frp
WAS sends: Bub Carrington, Richaun Holmes
Holmes has only one year remaining vs WCJ’s extension

ORL sends: Suggs, ORL 25 frp, ORL 26 frp unprotected
MEM sends: Ja Morant

Goga, Holmes, Moe
Paolo, Isaac
Franz, TdS, Caleb
KCP, AB
Ja, Bub

Here's one good nba trade:

Bucks get Chet, Dort and Joe, 2 first round picks
OKC gets GIannis

I’m betting Giannis is ending up in LA with Doncic.

ORL sends Suggs, WCJ, DEN 25 frp, ORL 26 frp (top 5)
SAC sends Sabonis, Devin Carter

Goga, Moe, Isaac
Sabonis, Isaac
Paolo, TdS
KCP, AB
Franz, Carter

Interior defense must be accounted for, so I show Goga at C, but Sabonis also spends much time at C-maybe with Isaac nearby. Franz isn’t really at PG, but his perimeter abilities make him the most capable of moving 1-4 in different lineups. Sabonis is as much a distributor as anyone we’d have, so our big 3 of 6’10 guys all would possess elite offensive versatility in an unprecedented combo. Sabonis is not known for defending, but his passing, rebounding and scoring are elite. Just the court vision alone will unlock our offense…I’d love to keep Suggs, but SAC is not likely to go full tear down and Suggs’ contract and trade value makes him the key for SAC. Sabonis needs no help developing offensive instincts and vision but maybe Mose can craft a team defensive scheme to compensate for individual weaknesses better than the way he crafted an offense that weakened individual shooters.

It'll be interesting what OKC does this summer. I know Williams will want a max extension. I'm not sure if Chet will get one.

How do we get McCollum?

#1
SAC sends: Sabonis, Devin Carter
SAC gets: Kevin Durant, ORL 25 frp #15

PHX sends: Durant
PHX gets: Suggs, WCJ, DEN 25 frp

ORL sends Suggs, WCJ, DEN 25 frp, ORL 25 frp
ORL gets Sabonis, Devin Carter

#2
ORL sends: Cole Anthony, Jett Howard, 2 srps
BRK sends: D’Angelo Russell (SnT, $13m 2yr + TO)
Largely a cost-saver, but DLo on a modest deal, in a limited but suitable role, could be fantastic. I see him largely as a spot up guy with the starters, but would also have some “green light” minutes with a largely bench lineup…so his minutes would be staggered quite a bit with Carter & AB earning minutes with the starters. If AB is ready in camp, D’Lo could even be a 6moy candidate from Day 1- getting equal minutes, or more.

No way KD ends up in Sacramento lol. I’m sure he’ll have a say where he ends up or have a “list”. Also, not sure Sabonis fixes our needs even being a great rebounder & playmaker.
