Re: Jaylen Brown trade ideas
I think I’m doing Jaylen for Paul George. It seems semi realistic, maybe Clipps want a more durable guy. Dicey health though for us when we already have a few of these injury prone guys…

Deal has been discussed a lot. We get scoring diversification and save money on a long term extension.
Trade #2:
BOS gets: Huerter, Holmes
SAC gets: Smart, GWilliams (S&T)
Deal works if Grant signs for a $14M salary in year 1. SAC adds Grant (a rumored target with their cap space) to improve their stable of forwards without renouncing the MLE or Harrison Barnes' bird rights by sending out Holmes. Smart helps their ailing perimeter defense on the ball without having to play the offensively unplayable Davion Mitchell.
Trade #3:
BOS gets: Finney-Smith
BRK gets: Pritchard, Hauser, Muscala, Kornet, '24 1st rounder
BRK cashes in on their forward surplus for a pick while returning a good bench shooter in Hauser to replace him. Pritchard and Muscala would be 2nd on their depth chart at PG and C so that's more playable depth and shooting for them.
Our new lineup:
White / Brogdon
Huerter
Tatum / DFS
Siakam
RWilliams / Horford / Holmes
I like that mix of players. I think our offensive and defensive versatility gets better there.
I think we definately overpay everyone in that deal.
#3 and Simons is an overpay for Siakam.
Brown and nothing to Portland for Simons and #3
Brogdon and #3 for Siakam

Why would Portland want 1 year of Jaylen?

Dame wants a win now player. By all accounts that offer of Simons/#3 is on the table for Brown if we want it. You can debate if that's the right move for POR, but seems to be there for us if we want it.

Tatum is signed long term. He could ask for a trade I suppose.
If Tatum wants to be a general manager like LeBron, he should hang them up and finish his degree. As a player he doesn't have the chops. Zero rings.

Any real world trade of Brown is gonna require Brown commitment to the new team. They're gonna have to work together.
I know you can't sign and trade him now but you could trade him and the team and Brown have a understanding that come next off-season he's gonna sign that 5 year deal.
Otherwise, Celtics gonna have to keep this guy for I more year.

Re: Trade Thread Tread pt.2 2023-24 - (Off-season)
Can someone explain to me the mechanism behind actually moving JB? Is it basically not offering the supermax and trading him with a year left on his current deal, or can you still move him if he signs the supermax? If the former, will other teams be willing to trade for him with a year left?

What's one year of Brown worth to the Celtics? As far as I'm concerned, he played himself out of a max contract offer last night.

Re: Trade Thread Tread pt.2 2023-24 - (Off-season)
Is Siakam really gonna be that much cheaper than JB? He's more next season. Then you take his ~$38M and do a 140% extension and you're at $52M. He's an UFA after next season and should put up great numbers next to Tatum, so it doesn't seem unrealistic it'll take that much to resign him.
I really like the idea/player, but I don't know if it's material financially vs JB supermax starting ~$50M in 2024.

You can't trade a supermax for 1 year. So it would be trade without the extension. But the receiving team can extend him. It used to be up to 120%, but new CBA makes it 140%. I'm not positive if that part kicks in this summer or not, tho.

It' literally all over the internet in any NBA site. They want to re-sign Jerami Grant, insert Sharpe into the lineup at SG because they love him and trade Simons/#3 for an all star SF.
Dame
Sharpe
(all star SF)
Grant
Nurkic
Brown/Bridges are reportedly their top targets. Would consider Siakam too but that means Grant to SF and a little clunky. OG been rumored too but not considered good enough.

I can see Jaylen having interest in staying with Atlanta (Hometown team) or Houston (Ime).
Portland dealing #3 and Simons for Jaylen seems like a big gamble by Portland.

He was playing with an injured wrist. Miami's biggest player fell on the wrist in game 1 - same wrist that JB has surgery on.
You also don't base personnel decisions (especially decisions this big) on a 1 game sample size.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything

"Regular" max extensions are limited by the cap. For a "normal" max, both Siakam and Brown would be limited to 30% of the salary cap in year 1. Their extensions would start in the '24-25 season, which has a projected cap of $143M. 30% of that is $42.9M.
A "regular" max extension can be for UP TO 140% of their current salaries but they get capped at the max salary for the year they started. Both Brown and Siakam can sign max extensions which would be for 4 years, starting at $40.9M in '24-25 season with annual raises of 8% of the year 1 salary. Deal would go:
24-25: $42,900,000
25-26: $46,332,000
26-27: $49,764,000
27-28: $53,196,000
Total = $192,192,000 over 4 years
Brown is eligible for a "super max" extension. That allows his extension to start at 35% of the cap vs. 30%. It also allows him to get a 5th year vs. 4 on the extension. 35% of the cap would be $50.05M for year 1 of his extension:
24-25: $50,050,000
25-26: $54,054,000
26-27: $58,050,000
27-28: $62,062,000
28-29: $66,066,000
Total = $224,224,000 over 4 years, or $290,290,000 if the 5th year is added on
In total, we'd save $32,032,000 by trading for and extending Siakam over the next 4 years vs supermaxing Brown. We also wouldn't have the 5th year committed. That ~$8M/year would be very useful in staying below the new second tax apron.

Re: Jaylen Brown trade ideas
Can we just being in a coach that puts player sin a position of strengths and not isolate them in there weaknesses.
If Spo can put a bunch of ham and eggers with multiple weaknesses and hide them can't we do the same before we start the trade Brown?

Ahh, thanks! I missed the cap on the normal extension part.
