Heck yeah. Notice we don't have to absorb Monk in that deal. Let the Kangs feel like we got fleeced. That's the only way we get a deal done with...
Trade 1: Knecht + 2031 1st unprotected for Ellis + 2027 Charlotte 2nd Trade 2: Rui + Vincent + 2027 Charlotte 2nd + 2032 2nd for Wiggins
The reality is, on a team center around Luka/Reaves: Rui, Lebron, and Ayton need to be replaced. -Rui needs to be replaced by a POA defender who...
Sounds like Lakers might go with a nuclear option on or after January 14th. Something like Reaves + Rui + Kleber + 2031 1st unprotected + 2032 2nd...
Yeah, but you do have to give up something in order to get something. Jake has a positive history with Sacramento, and we would be selling high on...
Kleber + Vincent + LeRavia + 2032 2nd + 2030 swap + 2032 swap to Kings for Ellis + Monk. Kings might go for this because it enables them to tank...
I'm down with that, but we should also try to get something for a Rui. Luka and Reaves should be the only non perimeter defenders the team, but we...
I feel like Ayo is being over rated by the media, basically because he is more known. Ellis is obscure. Keon is a much better defender and...
I mean if someone really wants to nit pick they could say that Ellis graded out as an F in screen naviagation last season, and a C+ this seaon pon...
Interesting that Grimes is on there. His situation is a little more complicated. Can't be traded until Jan 15, needs to waive no-trade clause, and...
Lol yeah Ellis is devisive. Look, we are not going to get the perfect player. I mean Herb would be the closest thing to that, but thats really...
Check marks the athleticism box, the timeline box, and reliable trade partner boxes for sure. Is having a bad season both from three and on...
Getting Ellis would be like the Kiki acquisition for the Dodgers a few years back.
Okay, I get what you are saying. And I feel that we do need both. There are just not that many out there right now. You almost have to develop...
Respectfully, what do you mean? You don't think we could use somebody who is 11th I'm the NBA in steals per game and 9th I'm deflections per game?...
Are STEALS and DEFLECTIONS considered advanced analytics? Ellis is pretty damn good in both categories. This season he is averaging 1.2 steals in...
Gabe is already out of the rotation in this scenario, and that's okay. He's expiring anyway. I'm not concerned with getting Gabe minutes. Thiero...
It would be great to see Thiero and Smith get reps. Smith does seem to have a knack for getting steals and deflections, although he is not...
I agree with this. But, I do feel like he is going to be more expensive to trade for than people think. Its a supply and demand issue with the 3...
Idk I was thinking maybe Tree Rollins?
