You’ll get Moses Moody at the 5 and you’ll like it.

I suggested Nic Claxton on the Warriors sub last week and that did not go over well lol.

I figured he’d help when paint defense drops off a cliff when Draymond sits, since Horford has not been it. Like sure, Claxton might not be closing games, but 25 minutes of rim protection and being able to finish at the basket when dumped the ball at point blank are kinda glaring weaknesses that would get fixed.

But of course the sub wants someone who can do all that, plus shoot 40% from 3, and play 38 minutes a game, etc. for…Kuminga lol. Good luck.

They refuse to offer anything more than 2nds for Vooch who is a good fit 🤷‍♂️

Y’all don’t have the shooting for most of these guys. Draymond/sabonis/jimmy/pods would suck from 3

Vuche homecoming for Isaac? Sign me up.

im positive i have only heard about Robert Williams III through trade rumors and signed contracts. i have no proof he exists (sorry Blazers fans)

Came here to ask who paid for this bum to be getting advertised like this

He was always destined to retire a Warrior.

He can still play well.

as someone not familiar with clam chowder, what city is that?

Why? He’s already in Boston

19 mill expiring is pretty valuable these days tbf

For 24 mins per game he gets: 7.5 points, 9.6 rebounds, 3.5 assists.

That’s not bad.

Thybulle still exists?…that’s honestly shocking haven’t heard his name in a long time

has Timelord been healthy for y’all? I miss his effort & blocking a lot

I agree. Clingan has been looking great in the last handful of games but he’s still plodding and gets worn out and in foul trouble sometimes. Williams bring a much different dynamic at that position and I feel like has been great in that role (when healthy). The Blazers still have a logjam at center but Yang isn’t there yet and Reath (as fun as it is when he lights it up) isn’t really someone you want soaking up big minutes.

Thybulle also (when healthy) has been effective this year and fits that “hardcore annoying defense” identity that looked awesome at the beginning of the year.

I think it’s smart of the Blazers to dangle those guys and see if they can catch a big fish, but 100% agree that they hopefully aren’t too eager to move them. Thybulle can still be a game-changer and maybe a big team tries to grab him for an Alex Caruso-style role. Same with Williams. But if I’m the Blazers I’m keeping the price relatively high on those guys.

Any team honestly. The issue with him would be the salaries

Hed be a great fit with the spurs or nuggets but neither would really pay up for him. Raptors or pistons would be interesting but idk of a realistic package for either. Clippers could desperately use him but they dont have anything to give.

I think an interesting trade would be to the warriors once kuminga is available but idk how salaries would fit in a possible deal.

Unironically hed be a great fit for us too but Idk if we have anything that would work for him without giving too much up

I’m thinkin’ Lakers.

I think he’d form a good tandem with Mobley. The Cavs should consider moving from Allen as they are a very small team especially against the Pistons and the Knicks. AD would give them a powerful defense and a great offensive option.

Maybe Hawks? Send back Zingis NAW and Kennard and then pick(s). Gets the Mavs expirings and a goo bench player in NAW, and Hawks a dominant paint defender which they kind of lack right now despite their forward situation.

But you’d be forcing AD to play center coming off injury. Or limited minutes with him alongside Okongwu

Not many teams have the salary to do it without completely gutting their teams

How desperate are the Bulls front office?

Knicks with him over KAT would be contenders, easily. I think the health concerns are the only reason to not pull the trigger because the fit is completely immaculate.

The heat? he would be fire with Bam like in the olympics

There’s not really any teams that are pushed to contender status with him on the roster without gutting their team

Like…I can see my Raptors making a swing for him for example (Toronto loves big swings involving injury-prone stars, what can I say?) but bare minimum we’d have to include RJ Barrett and another starter (Probably Poeltl) to match the salary. That’s a lot to move just for money matching purposes.

The Lakers

At this point, I would say the Knicks could be on the table if they want to move KAT (although how will they fit AD and Mitch is beyond me), the Bulls getting overexcited with their start or the Kings doing again the “I’m one piece away from being relevant”. The Warriors with a Kuminga S&T would also make a lot of sense (for them, for us the last thing we want is to add another non-shooter around Flagg).

It’s not like teams will need 4 FRPs and a young player. I don’t think the Mavs are looking more than expirings or 2-year deals to match salaries and a pick or maybe, if lucky, two. My daydream, though, is still somehow, someway, doing a multi team deal that sends Lamelo to the Mavs.

send him to the Lakers, ask in exchange some fat expensive white european guard.

I mean neither are finished with their careers yet.

Let’s see how it plays out 

Hindsight is obviously ²⁰⁄₂₀ but there was a legit discussion to be had for a while. People forget how offensively gifted Nurk is. Dude was great in Denver and most of his stint in Portland.

Obviously we now how silly the debate was back then, but back then we also all thought Hartenstein was a fucking scrub who couldn’t hold either of their jockstraps and now he’s one of the most sought out role players in the league

Mavs medical staff had serious concerns about an Achilles injury if AD didn’t recover properly and AD and his staff is probably pushing for him to play ASAP. If he injuries his Achilles, we’re talking about waive and stretch. Not to mention that we had a sample good enough to see that he not only does not fit with Flagg but actively hampers his development.

Cut the bait, forget sunk cost.

Then you take the chance on him getting injured again and he loses even more value.

Teams know how dominant AD can be when he’s healthy, but he just isn’t ever healthy. I think the Mavs betting on that to change to try to squeeze out a few more drops of water from that rock is a fool’s errand.

Also, it seems more likely that he’s just gonna keep sitting out/half-assing when he does play because it’s obvious the Mavericks are completely dead in the water, so I’m not sure waiting until summer to trade him is fruitful at all.

Well yeah, obviously.

All OP said was they are available and could be moved.

Duh?

No shit…

If the opposition team has a bad center he can have a good game. If not it’s over before it begins unless he catches fire from 3 randomly.

He can’t rebound.

Said every Nurk team ever.

Florida does kinda suit his off court lifestyle tho

Sabonis for Hali?

i don’t want a single dude on this list, i’m frightened about how this will turn out

But for who or what? I’ve always assumed we would need to give an asset to get off his contract, not actually get something of value in return.
