2018-19 Trade Rumours and Discussion - Deadline February 7th 2019

[hotfuzz]

Why wouldn't pelicans just wait till summer to field offer from Boston?

[bertarapsfan]

New angle;

Either we get AD, in Masai we Trust, or Lakers do; give the Warriors a helluva run. Shaking their confidence and the NBA to its core, Raps walk into Oracle and close out our first championship.

I want the trade to be done by the deadline regardless of who gets him. Strictly because it takes boston out of the conversation.

AD says I'm not resigning crushing the value, Knicks get 1st overall decide Zion is better value, Teams looking for a rental throw the everything and the damn sink at them pre deadline.

After seeing this snowfall Kawhi is leaving. We need this Masai!!

[c-troop]

What do they have to offer? SAG and Tobias who will have to be paid this summer? Dont think clips have the assests for a trade. They need to hit the lottery in free agency

Harris, SAG, Harrell and a 2019 1st Rnd Pick + whatever else NO asks for honestly.

- Harris would be a solid starting SF/PF beside Julius Randle PF/C

- SAG will be the backup PG for Jrue Holiday next season allowing NO to clean up their cap situation this offseason and let all their 1-year rental PGs go

- Montrezl Harrell is Pascal Siakam statistically... https://bit.ly/2RSpOls

+ a 2019 First Round Draft pick

Compare that to what we have and the Lakers have:
Harris >>> Kuzma > OG
Harrell = Siakam > Ingram
SAG = FVV/Wright = Lonzo
1st Round Pick > JV > KCP

Now, JV could be the deal breaker, yet it really depends how high Demps & co. value a 1st. The Clippers have the pieces to build a competitive package, and if they pull it off, we can all say goodbye to Kawhi ASAP.

In theory AD value is at its peak right now. A team acquiring him now has him for TWO playoff drives and 17 months of recruitment. That's significantly better than 1 year rental

And specifically for a team like say I dunno, the Toronto Raptors, if they offer a godfather deal this week it would come with the obvious caveat that the offer is not going to be the same in the summer time.

If Masai pushes too hard NO could send AD to the Clippers and spite us and the Lakers simultaneously.
and then watch Kawhi head down to the clips next season. Masai and Bobby gotta be careful not to be too pushy or too cheap with these offers if they are serious.

I think at this point, the last worry we should have is Masai Ujiri not knowing how to negotiate with people. That's basically his bread and butter

[MixxAOR]

Yeah lets not invent problems.

[planetmars]

So who's the Danny Green equivalent from NO that we could snatch up?

True, yet the Pels head office is 100% an angry beehive right now.
You gotta know Demps is in full F*ck Lebron and F*ck NBA Tampering mode right now. anything to spite Lebron would probably satisfy.

That's exactly when I want MU to call, just ask Dolan how that's been

If that the case it only improves our chances
