NBA Trade Thread # 3

According to this article the Bulls are interested in Oladipo and Lowry.

Names that have been mentioned as potential trade targets are Victor Oladipo and Kyle Lowry. It would seem that Lowry would be the better target right now.

Speculative targets by other execs. That said, I see Oladipo and Wall as our best targets. I like Wall a little better. His deal is terrible, but it, at least, has him tied up - where Dipo could walk after the season. Otto plus filler for Wall or Lauri plus filler for Dipo both work for me.

Wall is nothing. He is overpaid and does not make us better. Why would you want a 41mmillion dollar guy who cannot stay healthy. He has missed 10 games this year.

I disagree. Wall has shown a very nice bounce back, and I think he'll be able to remain very good for 2-3 more seasons. IMO, he's a better PG than anyone else we'll likely get via trade or FA.

He is overrated and overpaid. It is dumb. You desire Wall why? He does nothing elite, he believes he is a superstar. He is overpaid trash.

Lowry makes sense because he does not hamper the future. Plus he actually is a better player.

Overpaid, sure, but there's such dreck out there, the money doesn't really matter...especially if we keep Lauri. I just don't see us nabbing someone who will be better over the next couple seasons at PG. I also think it will be easier to bump Coby to the bench, without doing permanent damage, because we've brought in a known PG. I like Lowry better this season, but he is so old.

All that said, I would much prefer nabbing Dipo, but he'll cost more in trade because there'll be competition and he could bolt.

Victor is hurt and Wall is not worth it. Do not buy trash just to make a move.

I wonder if there are non-Vuc ORL deals to be had. I like Bamba more than most. I wonder if they'd like to be out of a couple contracts to give them some FA flexibility. Was thinking Otto/Hutch/Gafford (would be willing to throw in a couple of 2nds if helpful) for Bamba/Ross/Aminu.

If Bulls trade Zach lavine to Sixers we riot . What the F is that trade rumor F that

No chance... What do the 76ers have that could even possibly interest us?

Ben Simmons?

The common consensus is that Philly have no interest in trading Ben, besides you put Simmons next to Lavine not trade him for him.

Ben Simmons would be a disaster on this team.

I agree that their goal would not be to trade Simmons, but that's the only asset of interest to many of us. That said, Coby/Simmons would be a good pairing. You might be able to get away with Lauri at C, with Simmons/Williams out there to cover up for him.

Wall is still good, but he cost way too much money and he not putting up the production to justify it. Adding him you are pretty much locking this roster into lavine wall and the rest we have. We won't be good enough to get out the 1st rd. Basically a basic version of wall and beal except it would be wall and lavine.

Drummond, Dipo, Lowry. Don’t believe any of it.

Let’s see what AK does in his first trade deadline. I wouldn’t be surprised by anything. He’s hit on his coach, his pick in PW, and his FA in Temple. 3 for 3. Let’s make it 4 - 4 at the deadline.

I dont think AK hit anything yet and temple is too cheap to call it meaningful.
I would never understand why AK wont try to get the team better when he can easily trade for all 3 right now.

OPJ for Drum. Sato,Lauri,Carter for Lowry. Felicio, Hutch, White for Dipo.
You literally added 3 high level starters with 2 of them that can play all star in playoffs without sacrificing a pick and ship out under-performing deadweights. I just dont understand why not roll with Lowry/lavine/dipo/pw/Drum and evaluate the roster instead of watching the same roster for multiple yrs and evaluate Lavine whether he is max worthy. Experiment Lavine as a number 1 option in a 3 star team and trade him if he underperforms for a top 2022 pick.

There’s really no Otto to GS trade that makes sense, I don’t think. I was hoping Oubre + Looney would do it, but I don’t think it does and I have no interest in Wiggins.

I don't think they'd go for Wall.

Dipo is interesting depending on what he costs. Can you get him something like Dipo and Exum for Porter and Lauri? I'd do that. I think Dipo could be really good here and would be a dynamic and athletic backcourt with Zach. It's a good chance to try it out before you've got to give Dipo a 100 mill+ deal. Lauri could always be moved to somewhere else in a 3 way to return a 1st to Houston.

Otto for Wiggins. Their salaries match, and GSW can get out of Wiggins' contract a couple years earlier.

Let's get KAT here also and we can be the Chicago Timberwolves.

One thing AKME is good at; like the draft, I have no idea what they’re planning. Zip. Buyers? Sellers? Mixture thereof? It’s all plausible. If I had to put down money I would say nothing happens but it’s certainly more exciting.

If GS sending that wolves 1st with Wiggins then please yes

Keep in mind Wiggins has turned into a really strong wing defender. Still 26. Not an ideal player, but I doubt GS is so keen to get out of that contract.
