Talen

Horton

Tucker

But yeah I agree.

GS - Wiseman (debatable value)... Paschall?

Lakers - not much

Heat - Herro (was meh this season), achiuwa...?

Knicks - Quickley, Barrett

And of course picks - I think the Knicks have the most young talent to offer in trade, but is it even worth giving up those two in a deal? Idk if a Randle/Lillard team would be much better than these blazer teams

+ Nunn + Robinson for the Heatles. fucked re draft picks tho which is what it may come down to if Portland blows it up.

Dubs have 7 and 14 this year

Who is Keldon Johnson?

Forgot about nunn. Robinson is restricted FA and I can't remember how that works for trade, imagine they'd have to sign him first

I also just learned his middle name is McBryde - imagine how much better he'd be if he went by McBryde Robinson

Dubs have 7 and 14 this year

Ah true that does sweeten their potential offer

young Spurs wing, definitely picked because Pop is the coach

He's decent but uninspiring to be on a USA team

those are pretty lackluster pick-ups yeah. team USA might be heading to another upset.

for a country with 60%ish of the elite basketball talent on the globe p god damn embarrassing

[Krandor]

Under fiba rules McGee will actually prolly do really well.

His tendency to get stupid goaltending calls under NBA rules are fair fucking game for international play.

[Moss]

I think his skillet is MUCH more valuable to this current roster than the corpse of Kevin Love

that's more an indictment of Kevin Love

if you want the rim-runner shot-blocker type you nab a Jarrett Allen, a Richaun Holmes, a JJJ, hell even a Robert Williams. reaching down to pick-up a braindead 33 year old journeyman whose best days are behind him? COME ON

[Krandor]

Allen is gonna be a (restricted) free agent and likely doesn't want to risk anything

I'm pretty sure Holmes and JJJ are also free agents of some kind so same story.

Edit : Jackson has one year left on his rookie deal, but there has been rumblings that Colangelo and some of the other people associated with USA basketball don't want the young guys for some stupid reason. I saw a thing on reddit where Lloyd Pierce (currently an assistant for the team) explicitly told them not to grab Trae Young.

Warriors would have to trade Wiggins for salary reasons if they go after Dame. I could see Jordan Poole being thrown in there too, as much as I'd hate to see that.

[KuroTsuki]

But also this

So I'm not sure what to think lol

[Krandor]

I think Dame is gonna be talking to the media after Team USA practice here in the next half hour or so, should get some answers then.

[Deejay]

I doubt he takes NBA related questions

I don't think the Knicks are quite close enough to warrant making a compelling offer but the degenerate knicks fan in me still wants to see it happen

[Deejay]

jk he already denied it (without really denying it)

[archibaldcrane]

Antetokounmpo OUT for game 5, COVID protocols

Spoiler: show

Thanasis

[Krandor]

I get you're memeing but I have to imagine he's likely been hanging out with his brother or other members of the roster the last few days.

Could be looking at more popping up at any time.

[archibaldcrane]

This game shows how important Thanasis is to the Bucks

Is he better at shooting FTs?
