**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

Randle has a $9M player option. Probably not going to be there.

Ahh forgot about that. Good call

did my guy say marcus smart and the 14 for AD? that was + tatum too right? lmao

He said Smart + 14 = Kuzma or Ball value wise

 

[sohi 23]

I wonder if the Suns try to get Zo again with the #6 pick or get in there with a 3 way trade. They got shafted the worst tonight.

Knicks and Lakers need to include their pick.
I would say Tatum has a similar value to a top 5.

Marcus Smart + 14 would be say worth Kuzma or Ball (depending how you value each) from Lakers and DSJ from NYK..

According to this Chicago would give up 7 for Lonzo.
I would pass but something to consider.

Think PHX would trade their 6th for Lonzo like MVP was saying.

hmmmm...
debatable
i think I'd rather have Kuz lol

Jazz won of all contending non-lottery teams. Grizz gonna build with the Ja + JJ future and ship Conley off. Their chances of getting him exponentially improved

 

[addict4sneakers]

if I don't see another Zion meme

 

[QU!K]

Conley would be a good fit on the Spurs

For AD, it’s a 3 team race... Knicks, Lakers, and Celtics.

Knicks and Lakers need to include their pick.
I would say Tatum has a similar value to a top 5.

Celtics have to include 14. And need to salary match, which means Marcus Smart gets included and a cheap asset.

Marcus Smart + 14 would be say worth Kuzma or Ball (depending how you value each) from Lakers and DSJ from NYK.

Now it all depends how bad they want AD. Knicks have Mitch, Knox, Trier. Lakers have BI, Zo or Kuz & Hart. Celtics have Jaylen Brown, Grizzlies protected 2020, 20th pick and 22nd pick.

Leaving out the Knicks picks from the porzingis trade

Also leaving out the fact that New Orleans will not trade him to the Lakers

David Griffin has won the #1 pick 4 out of 5 times he's been a GM. Absurd luck

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

The real young core is in Memphis. You heard it here first

 

[lawdog1]

David Griffin has won the #1 pick 4 out of 5 times he's been a GM. Absurd luck

Is it really luck?

 

[nick.]

David Griffin has won the #1 pick 4 out of 5 times he's been a GM. Absurd luck

Well if he practiced & mentally processed winning the lottery is it luck or skill?

 

[Kinfolk]

It was always a 3 team race for AD. Celtics and Knicks packages got worse and the Lakers got better. I don't think a smart GM like Griffin is intentionally going to take the worst package of the 3.

Louder please.

 

[solefx]

Knicks gets trolled but have others looked at where the suns, cavs and bulls landed?
Theyre about to throw everything for AD and if it works it puts them position to have a big 3 of AD,KD and Kyrie

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Steph isn't a great defender in the sense that he's not locking anybody up but he plays like a great defender. Meaning he does what he's supposed to be doing and not just lollygagging out there

Not saying it’s doesn’t have value but 2023 draft is a long way away. And it’s top 10 protected.

Ya love to see it

NT Celtics fans, I like you guys. Collectively, you’re a really knowledgeable group. But Bill Simmons makes me want to hate your team.

It doesn’t matter who has the best package what matters is who actually offers the best package.

 

[sohi 23]

24K Magic really in the air

Just a year ago, the Sacramento pick was a top 3 trade asset for a Unibrow trade. 1 year later, the Lakers got the 4 pick and Boston has the 14th.

Look how the tables turn.

Of course the Bulls end up with No. 7.....again. Three straight years. Cam Reddish here we come.
