Trade deadline discussion


this is the issue with the injury... while some said he only had value as an expiring I knew if we found a deal we could flip him for a different expiring and get some light value by expanding whatever trade we did.
 
Why is Boston trading Smart for a first in 4-5 years and a guy that can't play. He is playing well and they have picked it up lately... if they want to do a meh deal later they can. It doesn't change their cap room situation and might actually hurt in FA because they could use Marcus in some sign and trade situations. They will want an actual player if they move him and some draft capital.
 
I believe Royce isn't a starter in the NBA and shouldn't play the amount of minutes he does for us. We won't win anything with Royce in our starting lineup. Let's stop fooling ourselves. We should upgrade him or get draft picks that can easily surpass him via a trade
 
We won't do it because its too NBA twitter. Neither guys are name brand and giving a first for a non-name brand player is not how you win the press conference. I do think it could have a wild effect. Muscala actually plays the drop and can move really well. I think he could play a little with Rudy if needed but he's a true stretch big. Like if Lauri Markannen was putting up his per minute numbers people would be going nuts.

Kenny is the perfect in between player and now that Joe is done we really need that. He might be a defensive savant based on his on/off numbers. They could also just be really wonky. He also might be the second coming of Alex Caruso (different types of players obvi) where he is actually like an all-nba level defender but because he looks a little different or it isn't obvious like with GPII you dismiss it.
Could you imagine our homerism if Kenny was a guy we found? We get attached to certain guys without realizing how attached to other guys we could be.

I mean some in our front office though Miye Oni was our best perimeter defender. So yeah... I can imagine.

I'd like to know what the deal with Sacramento was. It must've been a 3 team deal with Joe going somewhere else because the 18-34 Kings would've had no use for 34 year old Joe Ingles. I wonder what the Jazz would've gotten back?

I think they likely wanted him... Vivek is all in on getting into the play in cuz he dumb. I think it would have been either Joe to Kings, Bagley to OKC or Detroit, and we save money and get a second rounder from someone.

It also could have been a deal where we send Ingles/Clarkson for Hield maybe... Maybe it was something ridiculous like Joe for Thompson to save us a few million... ****... that seems like the deal we'd do... sad.
