The fact that Jordan Hawkins is being treated like throw-in trade chaff is crazy. I know he hasn't finished the season super strongly, but he is a young talent to watch, and looks like he can develop into a solid secondary or very good tertiary scorer, while provided spacing due to his gravity alone. You don't just throw those types of players into trades on a lark. I'm not even a Pels fan, and I don't see how they could even begin to entertain that trade. Both Pelicans players provide more value in terms of upside vs contract than Dejounte Murray. While I like Dejounte as a player, and his cap figure isn't crazy at this point, what Hawkins projects to do over the next three years on a rookie deal allows far more flexibility than Dejounte, and that ignores losing Brandon Ingram (Pels fans, lmk if Ingram is not worth his contract, I don't watch much NO basketball).

Do you mean for the Knicks? Knicks should take that in a heartbeat. Nets on the other hand, hell nah. Bridges > Randle and Bridges fits better on all 30 NBA Teams too

The BI and Trae trade is a bit too nutty. The others i wouldnt say are completely outrageous.

Pels wouldn’t trade Bi for that. They didn’t even include him in deals for KD

He’s a good #3 option on a championship squad, but I don’t see any future where the Knicks trade Julius Randle for anything less than as a piece of a larger package for a 1A/1B to Jalen Brunson. Plus the Nets are totally delusional in thinking Mikal can lead their team to anything

Im just gonna say 1 thing. All these trades dont really make sense. Theres always clearly one loser. Or it doesnt fit the teams time line.

I think trade trae for 3 young guy and 2 first round, pick 2025 is top5 where this Claas is strong is a good deal

@tjpots9133

15 күн бұрын

Its top 5 protected meaning if it falls in top 5 nuggets keep it. So both those picks arent in the lottery and will be late first. And the jonathan Isaac is decent but they already have decent 3 guys. The other 2 young players we havent seen anything from yet so you cant value them high. So basically the return here is pretty bad. And with allot of the better players right know being older i would take my chances. The Hawks already have a bunch of young guys they should try to develop. Having to much youth isnt going to improve that. I also thinks how much Trae brings to on offence you only take a deal thats impossible to resist and this deal is definitely pretty easy to resist.

The lakers and the warriors are trading to get better since they finished at the bottom of the western conference , however with the west tenth place is ten games over 500% , I. Don’t know is one player can do the trick and the lakers played better and won more without Labron is saying something and the problem with the warriors is the head coach who doesn’t play his young players, the same with Miami Heat coach

Chripy, tell that to the the Top level management of The cleveland cavaliers? Austin Reaves, has to share The scoring with ANTHONY DAVIS, and LEBRON JAMES, Thats Reaves PROBLEM. The problem with RUI ACHIMURA, is that he is a True power forward, and LEBRON JAMES, plays the Power forward position, Because JAMES, cannot Play small forward, at his Age of 39 years. Also, Austin Reaves, is not a True point guard, his a Scoring guard, and D'angelo Russell, takes his playing Time. So Austin Reaves,. Has had many problems,.he Needs to be a complete Starter. Now Jaylen Hood Schifino, is a player which Many teams want, they Have seen him play in the G league. The chicago press And New York press, know About him, and most NBA TEAMS are intrigue, with his Future. My friend, every team From Chicago, to NEW YORK. Wants AUSTIN REAVES, because they do their home Work. Do you do, your home Work?

That's a terrible trade for the Cavs. We would have to get many more 1st round picks to make this fair.

the TY trade is hilarious

No way they said Mikal Bridges for Julius plus all those picks. Bridges is good, but he’s not that good. Crazy that this is even a thing.

As a magic fan I never want Trae young anywhere near my team

The first trade is just terrible for the Pelicans

Israteeg. RUI ACHIMURA, is a True power forward, not a Small forward. With the lakers, LEBRON JAMES, plays the Power forward position, not Rui Achimura. Because, LEBRON JAMES, at his age Cannot play the small forward Position anymore. That's the Problem, with RUI ACHIMURA. No playin time, as a true power Forward. Last year, Rui play Power forward, in the Playoffs, and James small Forward. Check it out, and See how he play in his Natural position. Do your Home work. Before you Talk. To me, cleveland is Going to be a power house With Austin Reaves, Rui ACHIMURA, ans a young Jalen hood Schifino, who Remibds me, of a young Donovan mitchel.

@@juanjuan799 In his case, playing any of the forward position has nothing to do with it. I've seen enough games of Rui Hachimura as a true power forward with the Wizards.

that randle trade proposal is garbage, no way we should give that many picks.

That last trade is one of the worst I've seen for Atlanta Atleast

Pelicans will not trade Ingram to the hawks unless they get both Jalen Johnson and dejuante Murray back

All of them awful trade scenarios, the Donovan Mitchell trade possibly with him probably gonna leave in FA

Julius Randle is a 3x All star, Mikal Bridges has yet to make and all star apperance

In that Nets-Knicks one, honestly, the Nets should be giving up the firsts, not the Knicks. Randle is a far and away superior player to Mikal
