We need to Godfather offer OKC for SGA

The guy is an absolute monster and could seriously put us in title contention

I absolutely agree with you. We should be looking to buy now on guys who are coming into their own. None of the well established players (Dame or Beal)would be all in if traded to the Pels. SGA would be great with our core in my opinion.

Plus Presti owes us one for reaming us with the Adams trade

SGA is fantastic but not only do I very much doubt OKC would give him up (why would they? They need to rebuild at some point, the very reason we want him is the exact reason they would want to build around him, and they already have more picks than they can possibly use) but I don't think he'd immediately launch us to title contention either

They already have something like 16 first round picks in the next 5 years :hihi: at some point they're going to want some actual players to do the rebuild with. They're not going to trade SGA for like, the 24th pick and the 27th pick from the Lakers and Bucks from 4 years in the future, it just makes zero sense.

My bad

We can trade for SGA with 6 second rounders

Again, the only way it makes sense for OKC to trade SGA is if they surmise he hurts their own future picks so much that they have no chance at Chet, or the french kid or a real franchise altering player

That said, we have called and SGA is not getting traded this summer

After seeing his last name, I don't blame you. I think Chet is gonna be amazing though.

Chet is fantastic, so the fact that he's not even the best defensive big man prospect in his own class is pretty wild.
