If Collins is off the table:
- Huerter
- Hunter
- '20 Brooklyn first rounder (lotto protected but will convey)
- '20 ATL first rounder, unprotected
- '22 ATL first rounder, unprotected

I wouldn't make that trade. Atlanta with Beal is a playoff team in the East. So basically, you are trading Beal for 2 nice role players and 3 non-lotto picks. If I'm trading Beal, I need at least one guy with All Star potential, and preferably two. Get me Collins or GTFO.

I think eventually they're a playoff team - but that's a really bad defensive team right now - and they added Jabari Parker and Chandler Parson - oof. I think they'll lose a lot of 125-120 type games - I think it's still lotto in 2020 and really gotta wonder if they have smart people running the organization. We'd also have a lotto - and we really should - we're not winning anything this season. I'd have to consider that trade - with Bruno and they take Wagner. Hunter is such a sure thing all-around player - though not a superstar. That's a lot of assets.
The RingerThe Summer of Star Movement Isn’t Over Until Bradley Beal Says It’s Over
Beal reportedly has no plans to accept the Wizards’ lucrative extension offer. Could he be the next star to hit the trade market? And if so, what will his trade market look like after several teams paid heavy prices to load up on superstar talent?
On Friday the Washington Wizards offered Bradley Beal a contract extension to pay him as much money as they possibly could, for as long as they’re able to. Time is on Beal’s side. Waiting until next summer would allow him to tack on an additional year and bring the total value of the extension to $154.6 million through 2025...The numbers will skyrocket even further if Beal makes one of the three All-NBA teams this season. Based on current projections, Beal could be looking at a five-year, $253.8 million payday next summer to stay in Washington ... if, that is, he decides that’s where he wants to be.
While Beal is “grateful for the gesture”, that still leaves the nettlesome matter of the Wizards being very bad, even with Beal putting up historic numbers in an effort to carry them. Washington will carry a top-10 payroll for what is projected to be a bottom-five team this season, and the pain isn’t likely to end there.
“It would be great to play in one place forever. But at the same time, you want to win and make sure you’re in a position to do so," Beal told reporters last month.
Beal...said before free agency opened that he wanted to take some time to evaluate how the new front office operated and what additions the Wizards made. As difficult as it would be to entertain trading away the lone bright spot in D.C. basketball, it’d be even more painful to fail to build a credible contender around Beal and then watch him walk in two summers with nothing to show for it.
Beal is the only chip this franchise can cash in to restock the coffers in an effort to build the next competitive iteration of the team down the line. The longer the Wizards wait to put him in play, the less time he’s still under contract at a below-market rate, and the lighter the return they’re likely to score.Spoiler:
...will teams that think they could get Beal prefer to keep their powder dry and wait the Wizards out, knowing that every day he doesn’t sign that extension or otherwise commit to a long-term future in D.C., he gets one day closer to free agency, and his price tag drops a little bit more?

What's the absolute maximum you would give for Bradley Beal?

I'm old school, so I hate trading a star to a conference rival. Secondly, I don't want us to be the team to decide whether Brown is worth $25 million a year.

Atlanta had their chance with those picks. Now, I wouldn't accept less than Collins.

I actually think of ATL as a sleeper team to make a move in the next 15 months.
If you want Beal I assume Young and Collins are off the table as you want to compete.
So Huerter and Hunter are the first obvious assets (No interest in Reddish).
Then comes the picks. 2020 & 2022 draft picks seem reasonable.

I was definitely of the belief that Hawks were interested in Beal and am still onboard with acquiring him.
But this past draft was the time for us to strike. We had 6 draft selections (3 in the top 20 -- two in the top 10) that could have served as currency to acquire Beal with two full years under contract. Instead, we sold most of our second rounders and traded away #8 and #17 for...De'Andre Hunter.
That's five picks right there. At this point, our GM seems locked into building around the core group of players he's acquired. For better or worse.
And for the record: I suggested last Fall a trade for Beal built around J Collins (and that Mavs pick). Your mod referred to it as a poo poo platter. It seems unlikely we'd move the kid now that his stock has skyrocketed.
payitforward wrote:Yes, & you also referred to yourself as something approaching all-knowing ("remember where you heard it..."). Moreover your proposal was, in effect, Collins & the Mavs pick for Beal. The other pieces were more or less valueless.
I don't know what your projection was on John Collins back then, but you seem to be saying that there is reason to be higher on him now than there was last year, so I'm guessing you didn't project him to be the player he's turning out to be.
Which means, in turn, that maybe your offer didn't seem as rich to you back then as it does now, looking back with your all-knowing retrospective eyes? Right, huh?
Don't mean any offense, but if you climb down off that high horse you'll be greeted here with warmer welcomes. I'm guessing you're smart enough to work on that, right?
