Replace CJ with expirings, add a 2nd rd pick

They get 70MPG players to cover 1-4.
If there was a trade for a center it would've happened, TPMLE + Hayes + vet min cover the center position

Might aswell go all out then and trade Luka. No chance he takes the blame for pelinka another contract for not being able to get 2 playable centers to anchor defense

I don't see Cleveland looking to move off Hunter so quickly. I would either remove him from the deal, or just cut out Cleveland entirely.
Well at least we're not Detroit!

I like Rui, but I'd rather have Hunter. I think we need to see what happens with Merrill and Ty. I think they both may be gone early in free agency in which case the pressure to move Okoro subsides. In fact, they may choose to keep him.

It's not bad from Washington's point of view except they probably don't have the roster spots to take on two guys.

Also, I think they want to have McCollum do a little mentorship of the youngsters before they move him. They probably wouldn't agree to a deal like this until January or so.

Did you jump ship to Luka's Lakers now?

Isn’t there enough overlap between the roles of McCollum and Mann that it’d make more sense to just bring Mann back if you’re Charlotte?
Rest in peace Mamba. There'll never be another Kobe.
