I’d trade for Lonzo with the idea of starting him next to Jalen so he can guard POA, but I wouldn’t trade Hart for him with that injury history.

Best we should be offering for someone like him is a s&t of Achiuwa @ 1yr/10m and the Wiz 26’ protected 1st.

Bulls really have no reason to keep him since they just suck and should be fully rebuilding and likely won’t get much value for him anyway.

Jalen / Lonzo / Mikal / OG / Towns… I’m good with that

Agreed to that

Lonzo secondary playmaking / pushing the ball up the court will create opportunities for our wings they haven’t seen yet.

Mikal and OG better work on catch and shoot transition 3’s

If you had a coaching staff that would treat him like the Clippers treat Kawhi, kept his minutes in check between 30-33mpg, didn't play him in B2Bs on some days, and basically did everything in their power to get him to the playoffs healthy and fresh, then it would make a little more sense. But, trading for KD, and having Thibs coach him? He will burn out just like he has with the Suns and Nets.


I also feel like we're a week or two away from people floating PG13 trades as well.


It’s amazing that through all of our trade discussions somehow Josh Hart feels like he’s dodging bullets. I love the guy but his defense is bad and he is a terrible shooter who has somehow evolved into an unwilling one. From a scheming perspective teams will be covering him with a C for all 82 and we will try to award him the minutes MVP again. NDOS fix this





Josh hustles, the coaching staff loves him, and his best friend is the franchise player. The odds of them moving him are low, but I agree with you. He's a 6'4" PF/C on the wrong side of 30, when his falloff happens it's going to be really fast and nasty.



I been looking for trades too, but it's hard to find any

Image


He's going to make $19 million next season and if he's moved to the bench he has zero chance to outplay that contract, he needs to be turned into 2 bench players.


Rose fired his homie.

If he finds a deal that improves team which moves Hart. He will make it.

1) KAT, Hart, Deuce, picks for Giannis in 3-way
2) KAT, Mikal for JJJ, Bane
3) KAT for KD, Dunn, 1st
4) Duece, Tucker, Dadiet for DDV
5) Mikal, Mitch for JJJ, Clarke

I don’t mind grabbing CP3 for the 1yr Tax MLE and then run it back with Mitch in the starting lineup under a new coach.


Yea a few were mine 8-) worked out to for salary matching purposes as well.

Give me 1,2,4,5 ...1 year for an older more injury prone KD to give up 3 years of KAT doesn't work for me. But if its Bridges, Hart, Mitch, Tucker for KD, Nick Richards, Ryan Dunn that i could do. Bridges only has 1 year left if he doesnt want to extend here though the coaching change might alter that.

This is the same man that signed F0urnier and Kemba, he's not above questioning, and since we're all questioning things, I'm questioning you sticking up for upper management.

Giannis can't shoot that well. Knicks playing Giannis and Mitch? Doesn't seem like a recipe for success.

I think whoever trades for Giannis has to sit him down, and explain to him that he should be playing center now. As he gets older that would make the most sense for him positionally, and would expose teams to having to defend him with their C if the other 4 players can shoot.

Oh, I know he had made plenty of mistakes. Thats why im tepid about his latest move. Also, im not sticking up for Rose or any management for that matter. I just know a cold heart when I see one.

We dont have any real shooters on this team outside of kat and he is moving for Giannis.

Tbh, I dont love either kd or giannis. Giannis being on the wrong side of 30 is prolly a 3-4 years away from turning into Russ and kd is a carton of milk that is past its expiration date.
