2024-25 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

If OKC wins on Sunday they'll win the whole thing IMO. If Denver wins on Sunday, I think it's wide open. Minnesota has owned them recently and I think Denver/Minny/Indiana/New York are all fairly even. New York has to win tonight...right? Blowing a 3-1 lead with Tatum out would be an all-time letdown.

 

back to free agency--i'm very interested in how much paul reed signs for. he's not the answer at starting center, but he just seems like a guy who could provide some things we lack.

 

I don’t hate this idea. He could be more than serviceable and may turn into an underrated weapon on offense alongside Luka.

 

you mean reed, i assume? yes. it's possible he's just jaxson hayes II. but metrics i like have liked him for a while now, and i think he's what jj wants at center.

 

Rob came up with Williams out of the blue, maybe he'll surprise us once again. I doubt we'll get a better player (for the same assets) than the cripple though.

 

if by "out of the blue" you mean we didn't expect as fans...i'd agree. but the only reason i didn't expect it was because i didn't see why charlotte would be sellers. same with kessler in utah--if they want to move him, you may want to think twice about why.

i feel like basically every possible situation has been discussed on these forums at this point, so i'm not sure we'll be really surprised by whatever happens. there are degrees of surprise, but not "nobody ever thought of this".

for example, i think rui for nunn was a "nobody has ever thought of this" type trade. not seeing that on the center market.

 

You doubt we’ll get someone better than a dude who may have a very short career in the NBA? Come on, I think Rob will most definitely get someone at least serviceable.

 

Looks like OKC is going to get a huge break if AG is out with a strained hammy:
