They got picks too, right?


September 27, 2023: As part of a 3-team trade, traded by the Portland Trail Blazers to the Milwaukee Bucks; the Milwaukee Bucks traded Grayson Allen to the Phoenix Suns; the Milwaukee Bucks traded Jrue Holiday, a 2028 1st round draft pick, a 2029 1st round draft pick and a 2030 1st round draft pick to the Portland Trail Blazers; the Phoenix Suns traded Deandre Ayton and Toumani Camara to the Portland Trail Blazers; and the Portland Trail Blazers traded Keon Johnson, Nassir Little and Jusuf Nurkic to the Phoenix Suns. 2029 1st-rd pick is MIL own 2028 1st-rd pick is a swap 2030 1st-rd pick is a swap

Also, Holiday yielded a pick: 2029 BOS, The 2024 pick was a swap that has added Bob Carrington who was sent to Washington.

October 1, 2023: Traded by the Portland Trail Blazers to the Boston Celtics for Malcolm Brogdon, Robert Williams, a 2024 1st round draft pick (Bub Carrington was later selected) and a 2029 1st round draft pick. 2024 conditional 1st-rd pick is GSW own 2029 1st-rd pick is BOS own, Portland also receives a trade exception

And Brogdon's trade to Washington?


July 6, 2024: Traded by the Portland Trail Blazers with Malcolm Brogdon, a 2028 2nd round draft pick, a 2029 1st round draft pick and a 2030 2nd round draft pick to the Washington Wizards for Deni Avdija. Portland also received a trade exception 2028 2nd-rd pick is GSW own 2029 1st-rd pick is POR own 2030 2nd-rd pick is POR own. So, it cost a FRP to dump him.

Klutch work hand and hand with Joe Cronin. This was yet another Klutch under the table deal with Cronin to free up Ayton to sign the min with the Lakers.

Wash, rinse, repeat.


Don’t say stupid **** if you don’t want it thrown back in your face when it’s clearly wrong :lol:

Not that all agents aren’t shady but Klutch is openly doing shady deal after shady deal every year. Same thing getting Lebron his guy for nothing that would cost other teams draft compensation at minimum

They don’t need scary, the just need someone with size who has a soft touch and can rebound a play defense.

That not touching the elephant in the room of Luka getting in shape and motivated to dominate. He might have an mvp type year next season.

Don’t see Duncan leaving but also figured his new deal would be leaked by now if he was staying. Maybe he really is gone

It could have been discussed that it would be in his best interest to opt out and play the market. Something we could have slow dragged till July 8th not in his best interest if we released him and everyone spent there money already. Writing was on the wall that we needed his money off the books. Maybe we work a S&T with him that works out for everyone.

We have 12 million to spend under the tax line. Sign a solid three point shooting wing who can play defense. Thank you for your service Duncan

Duncan is going to slay us every chance he gets. I bet he shoots 45%+ from beyond the arc in his next job. I can't wait to see the trade board inflating his value on the next time. This is fine. This is fine.

His next coach will want him shooting threes and not fooling around doing other things like he was asked to do here as his career went on.

A perfect replacement for Beasley. Detroit might be ready to move on given the gambling allegations.

Return to Miami Heat
