What will be MU's next move?

[Uncle_Si]

Masai's next move is to trade our pick and Terrence Ross for Faried.
-Then throw some money at Aaron Afflalo.
Lowry/Demar/Afflalo/Faried/JV

This is one of the more reasonable ideas I've seen. I just don't know about DD, really torn on what to do with him.

It all depends on what is offered for him. That's the part of the trading that we don't know ... only Masai does.

Very logical. I would replace Afflalo with Danny Green though. Just for the extra playoffs experience he has. Also the fact that no one talk about him being a FA. Could be a lot cheaper.

I think the first move made is a DeMar trade (for a high pick) at the draft. But I'm an optimist.

Draft night dream:

JV/Ross/Fields/NYK-DEN pick/2016 pick for DMC

JV probably has the highest trade value on the team right now. I don't think there is a better Center prospect that Sac-town could get back in a trade.

And here I thought you didn't do the Masai trade scenario game with us.

Not sure Fields is included in any deals since he is expiring.

I think Lowry goes first but in similar fashion. I don't think you risk moving Demar first and letting Lowry's mouth impact his value/situation unless a) he knows about the deal, b) he's on vacation somewhere without Internet.

honestly i think there will be quite a few moves over the summer. i think KL is being traded if he can move him.

Fields cannot be traded, unless it is via sign and trade in July.

Ehh, in terms of asset retention, DeMar needs to be priority 1. Ideally both move at the draft anyway, but if Lowry proves difficult to get value for, you've got a few years to increase his value, in the worst case. DeMar is potentially gone for nothing next summer, and his trade value decreases by the day as he approaches his player option.

Oh, I'm thinking both are traded within 2 weeks of each other. My point was more to the fact that Lowry has, in the past, been more likely to air his grievances in the media. Can totally see him saying some negative stuff if Demar gets moved and Lowry didn't know it was coming. We simply don't need any more bad publicity after this season and playoffs.

Masai's next move is the draft...i dont think anything exciting is gonna happen outside a few free agent signings.

[OldSkoolCool]

Moving DeMar isn't a tanking move. Even moving DeMar and Lowry doesn't necessarily mean tanking. One step back for two steps forward maybe.

Exactly, especially considering how shitty the east is

FA is a farce when you are a shitty team

[psrs1]

the new system involves 4 point guards...

4 guards plus JV.

[raptors999]

4 guards plus JV.

You misspelled 2Pats

[thead]

I think the existing roster can work with a few additions....I think it could work better with

Dragic, Affalo, Middleton, D. Green.... in fact I dream of this lineup often...its my current barely a hope in hell but still possible lineup
