Trade Thread Tread pt.2 2023-24 - (Off-season)

[Hal14]

Not sure the Pistons would be open to moving Isaiah Stewart, but if I'm brad, I'm at least making the call to find out..

He's still young, too. Just turned 22 so still getting better with untapped potential.

If I'm Brad, I'm watching what happens with the pistons draft pick closely. They're picking 5th - if they take 1 of the PF's in that spot (jarace walker or taylor hendricks) that would probably be the last straw that pushes them over the edge to really be open to trading Stewart. 

Perhaps Pritchard + filler gets it done?

We could use a guy like Stewart who is tough, a bada%%, doesn't back down from anyone, not afraid to mix it up and get physical. An enforcer type.

That better be some sweet filler, lol. But would definitely be interested.

That's true.

How about:
-Detroit drafts jarace walker at 5, so no longer needs stewart
-Celtics trade 2024 1st round pick + pritchard for stewart
-We make stewart our starting PF of the future. Rob starts at center. Al (who will be 37 yrs old) is moved to the bench as our primary backup big man

Then maybe you trade either Muscala or Gallo in a separate deal since the 2 of them are kind of redundant with what they bring, and with Stewart onboard, there's less minutes for them anyways.

Layup city reborn!

I am not against trading Brogdon for the right deal. But too much hate going on with him. He had a really good season with us. Became 6th man of the year. Tops in 3 point shooting etc.. Finished poorly due to mainly an injury to his shooting arm.. But in some cases we are practically giving him away..

He is not a part of the core that has disappointed us for the last 4-5 seasons. I will acknowledge fans have all kind of opinions. But damn... Let's keep the core of Low IQ players who seemingly always lose because of stupidity .. with a absolutely lame HC and trade Brogdon..

[Celtics_Champs]

Kyrie loses again. LeBron gonna recruit CP3 to LA. Makes much more sense for them to go with Paul over Irving.

I'd do it for sure.

Of course, if I was DET I'd probably draft Cam instead and keep Stew.

Stewart is already no longer Detroit's center of the future with Jalen Duren, plus they have Wiseman and Bagley. Stewart started shooting 3's last year because his only place on the team, at least as a starter, is at the 4. He is at least more attainable than he was last year. Detroit supposedly wants to contend now and they have cap space. Would they take Brogdon for Stew? It would solidify our frontcourt and save us a bunch of dough.

[Shamrock23]

Boston needs CP. We have one of the worst passing rosters. No one can pass in this team it’s ridiculous!

[titlebound1]

Can't fault guys for wanting to live in Florida over Boston.

That said...Dame has zero say. Portland doesn't owe him anything and he's locked in long term. Tatum and Dame would be the best duo in the league, and it wouldn't be particularly close. A perfect fit. But there's a 0% chance it happens

[EWINGtheory]

Dame doesn't want to be here. Cross him off the list and move on. This org views Smart is untradeable anyways so it makes sense to focus on proposals to help the front court. Guys like Trey Young or Dame, they don't want to be here and deal with the weather and the lack of nightlife and lack on endorsements and taxes. All of those things together make Boston very unattractive. This is a place where the players would choose over somewhere like Charlotte or Indiana or Utah for sure. But these players don't really care about winning and the ones that do only remember one title with this franchise. 17 Titles don't matter to them if you missed 16 of those.

Huge difference between Miami or Brooklyn being your top choice and not willing to come to Boston at all and it’s a big leap to make that assumption. Dame just spent a decade plus in Portland Oregon and refused to leave time and time again , how’s that nightlife?

He was drafted there and they could pay him the most. Boston is a solid tier below LA Miami and NYC. Its just how it is.

No question about being a solid tier below Miami and LA but there’s also a huge difference between not willing to play somewhere like Boston and preferring to be somewhere else

Brown, Brogdon ,G Will, future 1st to Port
Lillard , Grant ( s n t) to Bos

Goodness gracious you’re making me hard.

CP3 will end up with one of the LA teams. He’s a dork.

I like Stewart. Not sure what the price tag would be. They would probably shop Bagley before Stewart

[Mr_Mojo_Risin]

It would be awesome to have an experienced true point guard like CP.

On the other hand it seems like his body falls apart every year at the worst possible time.

I desperately want this, but only if CP3 would be willing to come here on a smallish contract and play off the bench. In this scenario I would trade Brogdon for value in another position and keep PP.

We could even come to an understanding that he migrates into an assistant role at the end.

However CP3's smarts and playmaking are things our team desperately needs to stop the stagnation.

Hmm, interesting. I'd probably do that.

And we keep our 2024 1st round pick to trade away for a different player (we all know Brad is gonna trade that pick at some point haha).

If CP3 signs with a team not named the Suns, Lakers, or Clippers I’ll be shocked.

[flintsky21]

Count me in the Isaiah Stewart train. He checks a couple of boxes for Brad too (6'9 or shorter, shoots the 3).

I'd probably want something else back if we're trading Brogdon. PP < Stew < Brogdon, imo.
Even just Burks and Stew or something. Somewhat defeats their win now, though. But Brogdon is an upgrade.

I wonder if he'd take whatever the Celtics could afford. The guy is a supreme choker but he'd be an upgrade at PG.

Me too, I’m prepared for the likely disappointment.
