    For real.

    Trading Jrue was soooooo fetch last off-season.

    We found out his best spot is off the ball and he's gotten to play that in four and a half games.......but let's trade him. Lol

    Not to be critical of anybody's trade idea, but I wouldn't trade SOLO and W johnson for Wall.

    Here is a trade idea that is doable but probably won't be too popular. Wes, Solo, and Randall for Hayward. BEFORE YOU ASK, why does Boston do this?? First, they have both Tatum and Brown to play the three. Second, they need a quality big like Randall. Third, this 4 mil salary break takes them out of LUX. TAX and Wes is expiring. They will need the savings to sign their point guards and the above mentioned going forward. Hate to lose JR, but G. HAYWARD. What say you?

    Would you want to pay Hayward about $100 million for this season and the next two? Not sure I would.

    At least Hayward is an asset, Solo clearly a liability. making the payout a little easier to swallow.

    IS Hayward an asset right now? He has worse numbers than Moore but is still owed 100m+ over the next 3 years.

    As useless as Hill is his entire contract is for less than what Hayward will make just this year. Hayward on his current deal takes us out of running for any type of trade or paying Niko this summer.

    Wed basically be a tax team and I'm not sure we'd even be much better, maybe even worse.

    Hard pass.

    im not giving up randall double double inside game....he is the only bully ball player we have..the only player we have that likes to bang in the paint and can score by doing it and i dont want to loose that part of our offense this season because we need to make a deep run into the playoffs to show our superstar that he can win here and randall will be a big part of winning with his style of play......the money with hayward is a problem also........

    i would just wait til the deadline and try to move hill and parts...im holding out for dallas to go south and see if we can get barnes from them since we ask about getting him....

    I understand that this move would handcuff us on future trade options. But how does it stop us from signing Nico? We have his bird rights

    Because we'd be in luxury tax and could very well be outbid by a team if Niko is offered a larger than we'd want to pay contract.

    Hayward handcuffs us in many way because of just the sheer amount of money he is owed over the 3 years and is playing at an all time low. If he doesn't drastically improve his contract will end up being one of the worst in the league.

    It's simply not worth it.

    Based on that, I guess our target is status quo.

    Until closer to the deadline, yes.

    Screw it. We aren’t getting a better than serviceable wing for anything cheap. I now say go hard after Kemba Walker.

    This I can get behind, Kemba is being wasted in Charlotte..

    Send them Hill and 2 1sts for Kemba, Wes is proving to be more than a serviceable 3 for us

Probably still better options, but we'd have pretty competitive potential for 2 years.

    Without Kemba, Charlotte becomes the most irrelevant team in the league

    Devon Booker is the player we should be trying to trade for.

    1. He’s from right down the street. Moss Point, MS. His family would be able to attend the games which goes a long way.

    2. He’s very unhappy in Phoenix and has already been talking about teaming up with Karl Anthony-Towns in a different city when their contracts are up.

    3. He has the Kentucky connection with The Brow and Randle.

    4. He adds a knockdown shooter on the wing and improves spacing on the floor.

    I’d be trying to figure out how to make that happen. John Wall doesn’t hit the 3-ball well enough in my opinion.

    Booker is their franchise just like Davis is New Orleans.
    Only way you get Booker is for Davis.

    Devin Booker would have to drink a kitten smoothie to even be seen in a bad light in Phoenix. And even then, we'd never get a trade for him.

    A player of that caliber on a rookie deal isn't in the cards. Not unless we want to part with Jrue or Davis. Which defeats the whole purpose of making the trade. Like Mac has been saying, some optomistic team with a player or two we could really use will need to fall ike 20 games below .500 so we can scoop 'em up as they embrace the rebuild.

    MM.... let's say I'm interested in Warren and Caanan from Phoenix at some point in time.... feasible in your mind or no?
