i think he will make a trade if he finds the right one. He just has to be pretty sure about it because we basically have access to only one or two first round picks unless we put no protections on them. If he does wait until the offseason and we stay out of the top 12 in the draft we would then have more ammo. The day after the draft we would have ‘26, ‘28,’30 and ‘32 first rounders plus we would regain control of 2 second rounders tied up in the Atlanta trade. That’s 4 first rounders and 3 seconds to move.
Again, maybe he decides to trade for Cam or Collins or Kuzma but there are some red flags with all those guys. I’d rather try to get Toppin/Nesmith in a package if the Pacers are serious about the Cam trade

Huerter and Lyle’s are both movable and huerter should be moved. We still lack size Huerter and picks should be able to get something we’re in tenth place acting like we’re a top four team frankly it’s embarrassing if we stand pat. Fox even sees this nonsense now I’m glad klutch did the meeting imagine how he felt seeing other teams get better and we got cash considerations
it’s a possibility. I think it’s going to come down to the trajectory of the team. Is Fox excited about Doug? Is he excited about being surrounded with Dawg defenders like Keon and Devin that make his job easier? My guess is a John Collins or Cam Johnson addition isn’t going to be a deal maker for Fox. And hey if he still wants to go we will just have to deal with that then.
We don’t need a major shake up Huerter for Val works we need size center or big wing we need one or the other.
I think Cam makes us a dangerous team and we can win a series or two depending on matchups. If monk can be convinced to coke off the bench and get added Cam that’s two elite players off the bench to go along with Carter while balancing out the starting lineup

Contenders know what they are, the Kings don't yet. I don't how a GM that adds a team altering piece like DeRozan doesn't at least give it a season before putting on the finishing touches. Teams get into trouble the most when they just add, add, and add and use big money or value to do it assuming they're finished. Look at the Suns. Look at the Kings when they ran it back. Now the Suns were in a place of desperation that the Kings aren't necessarily but if your finishing touches lock you in and you aren't at the peak of where you need to be, you're basically just as stuck. PJ would have been a nice get for sure, but the get is still DeRozan for better or worse.
And the great thing about a Fox trade is now Monte at least has some decent intel on what the team left in it's wake might or might not look like. If Monte couldn't work out an immediate star for star trade, he has enough talent here to maybe stack draft capital and wait for opportunity while raising the value of the players still on the team.
If we find a deal for Kev without giving up first round picks that isn't a guard I think we should take it even if we "lose" the trade. This includes a straight up Kuzma swap though I find him distasteful. Otherwise we should just reduce his role as we move forward with Keon and Carter and see if someone will take him as an ender in the offseason and use the MLE (we'll have both exceptions next year?).
I think if Fox won't sign an extension we have to move him. I assume he can still get his stupid Super Max if he doesn't hit but does next year and we keep him?
I love Fox but don't want to pay him the dang thing. And if he can't make a commitment beyond next season in June or July he needs to be moved on draft night.
I am all for keeping him if we reach the post season or he'll sign a non super deal.

No one is trading two future unprotected firsts for Cam. And if they are protected you could make an argument that 2 protected firsts are worth less than one protected first and a good young prospect like Carter (depending on the protections of course.) Evan is framing that as a reduced rate and I don’t think it is.
Again, I'm very confident Huerter+13 for Cam was probably on the table this off-season. Cam's had a monster year and Huerter's regressed, so the "price" has gone up on him. But I think Monte's shown how much he truly values Carter.
You just can't do it. Even if it's for the simple fact that Fox's contract situation is still in flux. What happens if you make this deal and then Fox still wants out this off-season? Oops.
