Not crazy about Aaron holiday but it is a solid move. There was no way Jackson was going to be able to play in the front court as crowded as it is all of a sudden

Indiana has the #54 in R2 -- that's not what's coming to us obviously.

Doesn't make much sense. Holiday is on the final year of his deal. If he does well, then you have to go pay him.

Holiday is a decent backup. Definitely going after Dinwiddie.

This guy finishes kind of like Daniel Gafford. He has the Rashawn homes Nerlens Noel with a lot more Bounce

The pick shocked me, but yes - he's Gafford. I think he's a fine value here, but I never would have guessed he'd be our pick. Gotta wonder, are the Wiz going to convert Gafford to PF. Otherwise, is Bryant going to be traded? And right now, they also have Harrell.

So we traded down? Well the board should be happy guys beg to trade down every year.

This move reeks of Ernie “We’ve had our eye on him for a while” Grunfeld.

I doubt Cooper will be there at 31. At that point, might as well just take best player available or best Euro.

So we trade 22 Jackson for 31 and Aaron holiday. I am ok with this. I don't mind trade backs and if we get springer at a discount I'll love the move I like holiday.

Too bad Garuba is off the board.

They traded 54 and 60 plus a future 2nd to Milwaukee for 31.

Probably not the smartest of moves by Milwaukee, lol, because they could have just bought late 2nds.

Got the best shooter check
Got a young back up point guard check
Got athletic energy dunker like Montrezl Harrell check
Got some competition for Rui and Deni In Kuzma
Our bench just got 10 times stronger

Davis Bertans?

He is a shooter along with Casper but this lineup is looking very janky all of a sudden. Going to be some serious battles for playing time on this roster

Where are you getting his contract info? Hoops Hype has him under contract for next year.

I don't know anything about Aaron Holiday.

EDIT: And the 31st pick. Which makes this a bit more tolerable but still pretty crappy, IMO. Aaron Holiday is a dime a dozen.

Oh, so we have 31? Got it, I'm slow, lol. This is kinda making some sense.

payitforward · Post #858 » by **payitforward** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 2:34 am

Aaron Holiday maybe? But that's just a wild guess, given that we don't really have a PG at this point.

Last year of his rookie deal

Wow. Holiday is a replacement level player. Any rando vet on a minimum salary can give you the same overall impact.

I don't understand that trade.
