I don’t love the rebounding but we’d be a much more balanced team

Oh, maybe that’s why we dumped Stew. 

Not bad actually

That’s what I’ve been praying for, glad to hear that Bucks fans are actually into that too

Begging for this, especially if we get Holland and/or a pick along with it

I’d throw in a pick to upgrade it to Ware instead.

Shame we do not have the assets to enter in this. Turner is one of the few veterans that would be a legit great addition alongside Flagg. Also a crazy good fit with Morez.

Don’t think saying “oh, PJ and Gafford” is enough for the Mavs to even enter negotiations, though, specially because Turner’s shooting makes a lot more sense to the Pistons.

Herro (33m) + Turner (26m) = 59m

the post explains Base Year Compensation and how it comes into play

Detroit is limited to counting 50% of Duren’s new salary in a sign and trade.

that means even Duren his maximum salary figure — at the full 30% cap supermax (which is then cut by 50% for salary matching), would not be enough to salary match the 59m returning salary.

tl;dr a Duren sign and trade would be for only Herro coming back to Detroit. or only Turner. can’t be both simultaneous. and a 3rd team would have to get involved

Not crazy at all.

Need to expand the trade to the 3rd team and somehow add LaMelo/Naz/Randle/Claxton trade to it, so we get a 7 teams trade.

Wow you’re cooking

I can’t believe you put this out there. Now if it doesn’t happen I’m gonna be bummed

Kinda makes perfect sense

Duren would have to agree to go to a bad Bucks team unless you wait until December when the Trade Restrictions are lifted.

Free Agents have no obligation to help their Teams especially in Trades to a location they may not want to end up in.

Duren and Ware on the bucks and you have to pay Duren?

I like it. I don’t love it, but it does make perfect sense

You are crazy

How does it make sense for the Bucks?

I think everyone after 1970 has been saying this

I’m not quite sure how Keith isn’t a cap expert for a team yet. He knows his shit

Aside from the fact that Brown is just a better player, I just really don’t like the Duren fit in Boston.

If the proposed swap of brown and Duren straight up was real, then I sure as hell hope we do. I think this fanbase would go scorched earth on Brad if he did that bullshit

We do have TPEs that aren’t big enough for Duren but are big enough to take back other players that would add to Detroit’s outgoing salaries in order to match.

But the fact that Beef Stew went for so little makes me think Boston and Detroit aren’t dealing.

Why are they trying to trade him anyway? I get for Giannis but who else out there is an upgrade?

Why’s everyone so down on Okyeka?

How about Herro AND Myles Turner? :)

I’m very glad you’re not the GM then. This offseason is starting out very well

Brother you have lived through much worse

Lakers, Nets, Bulls could formulate a deal and Detroit obviously

The Bulls are rebuilding. For a rebuilding team, Claxton is perfectly fine as a center: he does the things you need from a center to help the rest of the team grow.

Yep forced to keep an all nba guy in his prime. The absolute horror.

This whole saga has been insane to watch. I don’t see why they can’t be right back in the mix next year

Yea seems like it

Unless they reroute Duren to a 3rd team 🤔

Yes please (can we get Holland too?)

I would pass. He’s young but he’s also been in the league 4 years without developing a midrange jump shot or some reliable post moves. 

Rui would help Cade out so much offensively, sniper

We can even throw in Dalton Knecht and Vando 🤓

Pistons fans hate the idea of trading for AD but I’d take him for 50 games a year + playoffs.

I’m going to pretend I didn’t hear that. The Lakers are the only team in the NBA to me.
