Trade deadline discussion

Who is the best perimeter defender we can trade for? That's the only thing I care about right now. Who is that? Who fits that description?

Donovan for jerami Grant, straight up.
 
LoPo said:
Lol.

We then take a step back since we would have nobody who could score the ball come playoff time. Have you seen our last couple playoffs?

Have you seen Grant at all?

Yeah. Grant is great. He's the alpha dog on the league's worst team. Like the saying goes: "in the NBA, somebody is going to score". Doesn't mean they would be successful in the playoffs. I love Grant, but no way he can do in the playoffs what Don has done.

Gordon is good... Bojan plus a first is what that deal would look like.

Then there is a grab bag of guys... Nwaba and Brown from Houston are solid... will Quin play either over Niang or Oni or Ersan?

The current apple of my eye is Jae'Sean Tate. He fills a lot of boxes and is cheap next few years. That one would require a first and even then I'm not sure they do it.

Torrey Craig was just offloaded for cash... that is probably as good as we could possibly do and we didn't get in that deal.
 
Danny Green is ancient but still good at defense and shooting threes... If he went to a team in a Lowry deal I'd be okay swapping Bojan for him.

Been a while, so I guess it's time for a trade idea thread. I mean, what do we have to lose right?

I threw one out there for Tate... it came back with mixed reviews... from why would we give a first for a scrub to why would they trade a good young player.

Would he be the first person to win a title with four teams?

Lauri is basically a younger version of Bojan that may not stay healthy or ever be as good as Bojan is now. I just don't see us doing that sort of move.

Fun fact, Locke's new "PAAC" rating was stolen from me when I was in high school and he was still using something called "Locke Offensive Rating". I can never prove this, but who cares. His rating is basically TS%....Locke is easily one of the worst representatives for sports analytics out there.

It sounds confusing. He had a rating system when you came up with your system. But he renamed it to PAAC so he might have stolen it. A few million nerds each year come up with rating systems but that doesn't mean it was copied from someone. He at least compares it against the current year average. So a PAAC (points above the average created) rating of "2" the previous would actually be a -"4" if the entire league on average got dramatically more efficient/better. This stat is more than just TS%.
