After a lot of discussion about how to make the Hayward S&T happen I think it would be a worthwhile exercise to rank our various assets. Below is my list, but definitely interested to see others. I left off some of the 2nd rounders as I don't really know where to place them at this point.

Tier 1
Ball

Tier 2
PJ
2021 1st
Graham

Tier 3
Cody Martin
Miles Bridges

Tier 4
Hayward
Monk
Zeller

Tier 5
Rozier


Note: Mods I thought about posting in trade thread but thought it warranted it's own thread. If not then feel free to merge.

Tier 1
2021 1st
2022 1st

Tier 2
PJ
Ball
Graham

Tier 3
Rozier
Miles Bridges

Tier 4
Cody Martin
Monk
Zeller

Tier 5
Hayward

In order

Ball
PJ
2021 first
Graham
2022 first
Bridges
Monk
Rozier
Zeller
Batum- as expiring contract
Cody Martin


Did not put Hayward in here yet because technically we are not able to trade him.

Tier 1
Ball
2022 1st
Devonte

Tier 2
PJ
Hayward

Tier 3
2021 1st
Rozier

Tier 4
Miles
2022 2nd
Zeller
Monk

Tier 5
Batum
Carey Jr
Cody Martin

2021 1st
2022 1st

PJ Washington
Lonzo Ball
Devontae Graham

Miles Bridges
Malik Monk
Terry Rozier

Cody Zeller
Cody Martin

Gordon Hayward

Ball could jump into the top tier or drop a tier very quickly depending on how he looks once the games start.

So a team says to you yeah we can give you player x for either Ball or your 2021 first. You would rather trade Ball?

I'd rather not trade Ball or our 1sts for the next two years. I don't really know what to expect from Ball because we haven't seen him play in the NBA and I haven't personally scouted him thoroughly. Thats why I said I would potentially move him up a tier after getting to see more of him. Hes the one asset that I don't feel confident either way about where I placed him.

Tier 1: Graham, PJ

Tier 2: future 1sts. Ball

Tier 3: Miles, Monk

Tier 4: McDaniels, Cody Martin, Carey

Tier 5: Hayward, Rozier, Zeller, Caleb Martin, the other 2nds we drafted

Tier 6: Batum

1 - MJ
2 - Kupchak
3 - JB
4 - Honeybees
5 - Ball
6 - Hayward
7 - Devonte'
8 - PJ
9 - Miles
10 - Monk
11 - Rozier
12 - Carey Jr.
13 - McDaniels
14 - Cody Martin
15 - Del Curry

For me personally it's:
1. Graham/PJ
2. Future 1sts
3. Ball
4. Cody Martin/Rozier
5. Monk/Miles
6. Caleb Martin/McDaniels
7. Zeller/Hayward (he's that low due to money not ability)

Fwiw cap space would have been 3rd behind Future 1sts if we still had any but lololol.

I think GMs around the league probably see it more like:
1. Future 1sts/Ball
2. PJ/Graham
3. Miles/Rozier
4. Monk
5. Zeller
6. Cody Martin
7. No thanks

But it's tough to guess what front offices value, we see some wild contracts and trades due to a GM coveting a player out of nowhere.

1: 2021 1st
2: Ball
3: 2022 1st
4: Devonte
5: PJ
6: Miles, Monk, Terry, Hayward
7: Twins, Carey
8: 2nd rounders
9: Everything else

By the allstar break hayward will be the top asset other trams will want

Its not likely that any player will be more valuable than Hornets future firsts. Whatever choice you make will likely change quickly as the season moves forward. So many question marks.

I'm guessing Ball has taken a massive leap on most people's lists. Devonte and PJ to a lesser extent have been the biggest fallers.
