Get a first rounder in there and we have a fucking deal.UnFadeable21 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 5:11 pm Shams says the Sixers are interested in Jimmy Butler now.
Fultz and Covington. It’s a done deal for me.
Wolves would have 3 number 1 overall picks to bound around. Covington solid as hell 3-D guy.
So many desperate teams out here for us to swindle

Fultz is still kinda brutal out there. Trading for him as the center piece is really rolling that dice.

Laughable to think we'd take Fultz. Unless of course Taylor is taking over. Then par for the course. They'd tell Glen he was the 1st pick in the draft and with his awesome knowledge he'd bite.

Fultz has skills. Obviously. Playing him off the ball at the 2 isn't doing him any favors in Philly. He needs the ball. If he ever shakes the yips, he can be great. That's a lot to gamble on at this point in time. Covington would be a very nice piece to add. And Saric is really solid. They have intriguing pieces.Thrillkill wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 6:35 pmLaughable to think we'd take Fultz. Unless of course Taylor is taking over. Then par for the course.

Who ever shakes the yips? We are supposed to trade for him and his value is what he might be if he can completely learn to shoot again because he has a mental issue? What's the value of that?YBBR wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 6:37 pmFultz has skills. Obviously. Playing him off the ball at the 2 isn't doing him any favors in Philly. He needs the ball.

It happens. He's so young he can still put it together. He easily has the highest ceiling over all the guys in the conversation. If you can get a Covington or Saric and Fultz, maybe a little sweetener somewhere. That's good value. I would do that.Thrillkill wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 6:40 pmWho ever shakes the yips?

Covington and Fultz is a WHOLE lot better than this Rockets deal that would likely be a bunch of late firsts and we have to wait 7 years to cash in on all of them. Fuck that.

Not sure which i'd want, Saric and Covington or Richardson and Whiteside.
As TJ put it, Barf to Fultz and barf to draft picks.

I would do Richardson/whoever too. Not keen on Waiters or Whiteside. I think getting decent return on Butler and moving on from that drama is the best thing for the team.

Richardson is literally the only guy I want from any of those trades. Sure plenty of throw in's or picks that make me happy but the main guy so far it's Richardson and no close 2nd.

He needs to be the primary ball handler.

No, he means in general. I would agree. But obviously dont take the ball out of Simmons hands. Dude is too good.

Yes this is correct.
Simmons runs better at point. So does Fultz. That’s why it’s not working with both of them in the starting line up in philly.
Jeff Teague is not the future here. Fultz, Covington, and a pick. Get it done this weekend

Get JRich or Saric, a pick, plus whatever. Just don't take on any shitty contracts.

Re: Butler requests trade -- Houston offering 4 first rounders 10/25 update
I did post a few weeks ago I'd do Butler for Rich plus whatever contract they want to get rid of/that works. Dragic, Whiteside, Johnson. They want to sweeten it by a protected pick? Where do I sign?
I'd still do it without the pick. This team needs to move on and not burn this season with it.

Re: Butler requests trade -- Houston offering 4 first rounders 10/25 update
The team has clearly quit on the coach. He should be canned but who is going to make the Jimmy trade and potentially if that happens, then it may as well be a borderline tank year/play all the young guys. I know I don't want Glen making personnel decisions. But basically anyone on the roster other than Towns or Okogie should be tradable.YBBR wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 11:20 pm I did post a few weeks ago I'd do Butler for Rich plus whatever contract they want to get rid of/that works.

Take the 4 picks Houston is offering! Its a no brainer if its on the table.
Problem is, neither Thibs, nor Glen are in this for the long haul, so they don't/won't see the benefit in that.
