Everything Trade Deadline 2023

[slaw]

There were some stories recently about how Brooklyn wasn't really engaging in new contract discussions with Irving. Easy to infer that he took it personally and doesn't want to help them win anymore.

Meh. They will give Kyrie the extension he's looking for.

not when he wants it though they will play hardball with him

Surely Lakers will be heavily into him. Bodes well for us as that’s another suitor in the summer that won’t be able to afford GTJ, bringing his price down

If the 20m rumours are true we absolutely should be keeping GTJ

Does it bode well? That's another seller on the market when we're trying to extra value for our guards.

KD is back on a menu boys

Masai's been playing 3-D chess. Fred & Pascal for KD & Kyrie. Let's go.

LOL JFC Kyrie

Kyrie saw Raptors being the team leading the trade market at the moment and wasn't having it.

Most centers need about 3 years.. so it could be a bit early. But I want to try and win (ie, make the playoffs). I think we'd need a more polished center and have Koloko back him up. I have Precious playing the 4 more than the 5 in this system. He's going to be our OG replacement.

He's already an excellent shot blocker at the NBA level. He just fouls too much. If he cleans that up he could start no problem.

The question then becomes if they would start Koloko over Precious.

lord no

lord, yes. We need some legit Pure Hoopers on this team.

Getting Kyrie would be like breaking-up with your really awesome girlfriend to start dating the clinically insane super model. Fun when it's good, life changing bad when it goes wrong.

That being said the numbers work for

Nets get: Birch, Trent, Boucher, FVV and OG
Toronto gets KD and Kyrie.

The allure of Kyrie, Barnes, KD, Siakam, Precious would be enough for me to focus on the good and deal with the bad when it comes.

I don't know how you can say this based on what we've seen. He had a couple good games in a row in limited minutes a couple weeks ago but before that he was completely lost out there and he has no offence. It would be nice to roll him out there after the deadline for 15-20 every game and get a better look at him.
