2021-22 Season: Draft, Trades, and FA Ideas Thread

[DangerZone13]

Nah man, Porzingis is nowhere near what the Raptors need inside. Considering his age, he's not moving very well out there, and certainly not well enough to fit the Raptors defensive schemes. Also ties way too much money into the 5 spot.

I'd take a swing on rehabbing and reshaping Thomas Bryant post-acl repair though.

I have to agree here. KP is not the answer especially for a 1st. He makes way too much money and does not impact the game like he used to. Our forwards are better players at this point offensively/defensively.

We need a defensive center or playmaking pg. I’d take a stab at Jarret Allen if possible. Maybe give up Siakam or GTJ/picks.

Collin Sexton looks to be on the outs of Cleveland’s plans. Could we buy low on him as a microwave scorer and sometimes starter?


Flynn
Boucher

The have a log jam at C and with Mobley getting better each game, maybe we can take Allen from them?

Yeah.. that's probably not enough.

We would have to pay him, there's no point imo.

What about Jarrett Culver for Boucher? Memphis is pretty loaded at the 2 spot with guys like Zaire, Bane and Melton. Adding Boucher gives them some more frontcourt depth, and complements Adams nicely.
For the Raps take a flier on a former top 10 pick.

[RonaldArtest]

Clippers might want to shed the last year off Bledsoe while still remaining competitive.

Bledsoe + Ibaka + Johnson
for
Dragic + Flynn + Boucher

Keon was a guy I wasn’t against the Raps drafting if they fell in the 9th spot this past draft. He’s got good 2-way potential and is an incredible athlete. Ibaka for C depth is a nice bonus.

Clips shed salary and also add 3 players who can help them win in the now. Flynn could turn into a nice PG to play alongside PG and Kawhi, developing into a pesky defender and spot up shooter.

I think Minnesota would love to pair KAT and Siakam.

There’s a deal to be made around DLo.

Siakam, Malachi Flynn, 2nd + Isaac Bonga (salary filler)
for
DeAngelo, Naz Reid and Jarred Vanderbilt


Minny gets an Edwards-Siakam-KAT core.

For us, all the incoming pieces add value:

Fred / DLo / Banton
Trent / DLo / Svi
OG / Svi Watanabe
Barnes / Achiuwa / Vanderbilt
Reid / Birch / Achiuwa


Trade Boucher + Dragic separately.

Toronto Trades: Pascal Siakam, Goran Dragic + 1st RP'23 protected

The Siakam for Ingram swap really intrigues me even if Jonas wasnt included .....I think Ingram is exactly what we need on the roster...As good as Siakam is his offense isnt as polished as an Ingram....Ingram is just a better shot maker

I would do a

Siakam + Flynn + Boucher

For

Ingram + Jaxson Hayes

I think Ingram would shine under our coaching staff as well

That's terrible. I don't want DLo anywhere near this franchise.

[Saul Goodman]

If Indiana is mired in mediocrity going forward I’d love to explore the idea of swapping siakam for one of their 5 men. Who would fit better?


Siakam
Aciuwa


For

Sabonis
Lamb



Or


Siakam

For

Turner
Lamb

Boucher is looking like a 1-year wonder, he's back to scoring in the single digits again (as he's done all but ONE YEAR), but you guys still want to trade him away as a big ticket item...good luck with that !!!

While Boucher isn't the burn he did, Culver is barely playing for the Griz.
The issue I have with adding Culver is even if he comes here and is functional (and that is a big IF) with the Griz declining his 4th year option he a UFA this summer.

If there is an interest here in Culver I would imagine the Griz will either buy him out or use him as salary ballast to get bought out by another squad and then we can always get a look at him that way which costs us nothing.

My thought on Boucher is that his reduced minutes and awful % make him far less of a threat to command Holmes money on the market next summer and if he is available for Birch money next summer I would just be more inclined to keep as bench depth.

My concern with Sexton is you trade for a guy who will end up commanding more money that GTJ to essentially come into Toronto to play a GTJ++ Role. Its very early and its only been 11 games but a lot of what made him an interesting player last season isn't quite showing this season as his percentages are way down so far.

He is also not a great defender which doesn't work well in our system;
As that "Lou Williams" bench guy he is certainly intriguing but if there is even a chance he commands more than 20m next season I am not quite so sold on him.

[CANsportsguru]

I think the best trading partner if we were to move Siakam would be Golden State they have a lot of young intriguing players we could pair alongside Barnes & OG. Pascal would thrive in their system alongside the splash Brothers.

To Bring in a better defender in Siakam and a backup plan for the possibility of Zion leaving them (Which could be possible) Siakam still has lots of value and is a champion....It all depends though what Pelicans are looking for Ingram is a little younger but Pelicans might want to try and start winning now which Siakam might be helpfull in that area

isn't Zion a RFA? there is no way Zion leaves unless he demands a trade. but what you're telling me is that NO is basically going to end up with Siakam and losing both Ingram and Zion?

Coby White is available. Boucher is the 4 man Chicago needs
