2019 Offseason Speculation Thread - Free Agency, Well Wishing, Trade Spec, Oh My

Post #1 » by **Capn'O** » Tue Feb 19, 2019 7:15 pm

Let's start anew. Well Wishing had gone over 100 pgs and the FA thread...

So. Durant's probably coming. That's pretty cool.

You would need to trade Zion in order to get AD.

5 isn't possible as stated. NBA rejects that

Am I missing something on the AD trade possibilities? Can someone clarify for me

Even if we move - Lance, DOT, DSJ, Frank, Knox, Mitch it still doesnt match up $$$ wise

Lance can't be part of the deal bc you must waive him for 2 max slots.

The key to an AD trade is signing the '19 FRP and adding that salary to a trade for AD.

Frank
Knox
Mitch
Dot
'19 FRP #1 @ 10mn

Works

Anything additional is whatever.

riding with the young dawgs unless something magical happens.

Mitch
Knox
Frank
Trier
DS
Allen
Jenkins
Dot
Top 6 picks

All these guys are a solid foundation.

Keep acquiring assets. That is all.

Very solid foundation. If we sign 1-2 Max FAs, Perry has to decide if AD > Mitch + Picks + Knox Frank Trier....

I know AD is good, but is it worth all that to get him? Looking forward to the excitement of how this all plays out.

IMO no. If we get Zion i'd like to roll with him but if KYrie and KD insist on AD then ok but they do not get Mitch in that deal.

Now if we end up with the #2 pick(and New Orleans is still interested) then I guess giving up Mitch would be fair - I wouldn't like it though.

Who are we trading the DAL picks for? Hopefully it’s a young guy to add to the core

Pels are going to be asking for the #1 and Mitch as starters in the trade.
