Everything Trade Chatter

[3inthekeon]

For those wanting a cheap one year PF rental, Omri Casspi's name has come up in trade rumours and has been getting DNPCD's.

Henson is a guy many of us have talked about in the past. His minutes continue to slip and are at 15.1 for the year. I wonder if the Bucks have given up on this guy.

He's inconsistent and lacks motivation. Kinda like Ross in years past with less talent. We'd be stuck with him for years if he doesn't work out and we'd have to clear 12m in salary to get him. I'd rather not myself. Good thinking outside the box tho.

Philly has two 2nd rd picks in 2017. They would send one to Sac. Sac has no picks at all in 2017. We would send both our 1st rd picks and our 2nd rd pick to Sac.

norm would be used to back up 1-3. delon 1-2.

Realistically how can we upgrade the PF position? who's our best trade chip and who's out there??

JV for possibly LMA

Or you waste a pick plus CoJo, Ross + some other pieces for Milsap, Ibaka...possibly Favors

Both have been discussed to death, other than that it's a mystery and what's left is either too young and their respective teams probably won't trade them or you can trade for guys who won't move the needle like Gibson, Jeff Green etc. Alternatively you can pick up a guy like Josh Smith for pennies on the dollar and hope he can be more useful than Anthony Bennett last year and if not you have to wait it out for next year's draft and see if there is a promising prospect (which there certainly will be) or see what you can trade for then.

As a reminder, this thread is for discussing actual rumors involving the Raptors, not your own crazy trade ideas... keep those in the Trade Proposal Forum.

Thanks for the reminder

No need to download. You can use the web version for free, and crop the section you want to share (so you don't share you entire desktop).

Sully would be an upgrade once he gets back.

I almost think we need to start looking at players that can slow down LeBron. Doesn't need to be a star...even Shawn Marion played a big role in making things difficult for him when Dallas beat Miami.

There's not really any such thing as slowing down LeBron tbh. What Dallas did worked because he had no post game back then. What you have to do is prevent anybody else from having big games. If you're letting Frye hang 20+ here and Kyrie or Love are doing their thing you're not winning the game/series.

And about Sully, I just don't like him at all at PF. Slow, can't make threes, won't be able to guard quicker 4s.

Anybody willing to take a big chance on Bosh when the Heat waive him?

He probably wouldn't be eligible for the playoffs by the time he gets waived, but in theory, he's the perfect piece going forward.

I agree.

You want a big that can switch on the perimeter and protect the rim. Lebrons so strong at getting to the rim and kicking out. Gotta live with other guys taking the big shot or letting lebron shoot from distance. U r still probably fucked. I thought biz was really our best lebron defender.
Sully's best attribute is rebounding. This is also jvs strength. Conditioning problems with a broken foot don't give me a lot of faith.
