Another big ol beal trade idea.
NO : Beal, Ish, J.Robinson
OKC : Westbrook, Robert Williams III, 2021 SRP from NO via cavs, 2021 SRP from NYK via pistons
Boston : Hill, Burtans
NYK : Reddick, Ball, Justin jackson
WIZ : Ariza, D Miller, Smith Jr, Nitillkina, hayes, alexander-walker, prichard, nesmith 2021 first from NYK via MAVs, 2022 first from boston, 2022 first from NO, 2023 first from NO via LA, 2024 first from NO, 2025 first from NO via bucks, 2026 first from NO, 2027 first from NO Via bucks.
A little different from my last idea
WHY?
NO : same as before they make a big 3 along with two good starters and have one of the best young cores and one of the better starting 5s in the west. They get some depth back in ish and robinson and are isntant players in the guy out market that will take place in late Feb. This team is a play off team in the west and can challenge an aging lebron with some good depth added. Yes that's a lot to give up but, they still have a FR pick every year except 2026. They are trading away extra picks. Yeah those are a lot of picks 6, but they arnt emptying their coffers all the way and this helpa them more than those picks do big threes are hard to put together and that is a legit one. Maybe take a first or two off but considering they are all gonna be late round picks with that one in 2026 and 2027 being up in the air it seems fair.
OKC again same as before they need some young bigs williams give them a good young rebounder and the seconds along with williams pays for them taking westbrook. Why do they want west brook, well their cap room isn't much good in a tank and having him helps the young team and he's a home town hero who I'm sure at this point is content just putting on a show.
Boston. It's an arms race, adding bench weapons like Burtans and hill help them compete with a thin nets team. Prichard is playing minutes but Hill is the more experienced and better player and Burtans out shoots any big they have. They don't have the pieces to trade for beal and hoenstly they shouldn't try, they have brown and he's good and affordable. This also keeps beal away from the heat and other east contenders. Honestly beals would make a few east teams better than boston but they get him out of the east and make their team better in the process. They are trading a couple of ayers that don't see any minutes or few minutes, guys that have redundancies on the team ( williams - fall, prichard- edwards, nesmith- langford) for two players that can push them over the top, also they can be players in the buy out market and add some 3 and D.
NYK : thai team is doing much better than they even hopped. So they flip 2 players they aren't playing, and two picks that arnt theirs for 3 pretty decent pieces to add depth. Ball and reddick would work well on that bench and taking a flyer on jackson would help that team make a play off push.
WIZ: yes those are all later picks. I get that . But 8 firsts are 8 firsts, I don't care if they are late having two firsts are good because you can make trades they are assets and one knee injury away from being "good" picks . That being said the young players we get may not be blue chips but they are promising. Once you cut some dead weight. Ariza miller and smith jr are probably cut right away. You probably trade or cut one or more of nato, lopez and gill. You have a choice to make about nitillkina do you take a flyer and keep him on the team or cut him too and move on ? Idk. Prichard is really interesting to me so it alexander walker. Hayes is still raw but he's what 20 and bigs as we know develop slow And nesmith is an unknown but a good prospect. Also, you dump westbrook in a trade where you get 8 firsts and young players and you don't take back any back money to do so. Also you are left with a lot of cap room to go take a contract for an asset form a team trying to get under the tax or make a trade happen. That's a young team with a lot of good young players. Get rid of brooks and rebuild. End of story.
