Trade Deadline Thread

Richaun with Vuc? Hmm, not sure I understand that fit there. I feel like Barnes is an absolute glove fit for them and would be better suited for their win-now timeline. I'm still trying to will the Pat Williams/DJJ for Barnes deal into existence.
Dosonmu has looked dang good though. If you got him and a FRP pick for Richaun, you do it.

How is he on defense? Weren't some on this board ablaze with you can't win unless you play defense? Then Fox went down and apparently scoring matters too. Need wings? Check. Plenty of tweener 4/5's? Check. For a Mitchell/pick package maybe the value isn't half bad but it still is what it is. I'm starting to feel like the same set up as last year. Expect something, come back with peanut peripheral moves.
Is he suddenly going to learn to shoot and play defense… okay, maybe defense on a team that preaches it at all but he kind of is what he is, I don’t really expect an immediate blow-up if he moves on. Maybe in 3 years he’ll have the Tyreke level later into his career three to expand his game.
I personally just keep Fox over Sabonis though, I’m not for that trade.

Why do we need to make a big splash ?
This season's dead.
Just tank and get a top pick.
If you want to do anything trade Barnes Richaun Hield or whoever for young pieces or picks.
And if you have a trade for Fox that will make the team fit better and be better long term than that's fine.
But please no splashes as a desperation move to make the play in or something like that.
No one wants to see that.
It's just junk and we've already seen the results for the last 15 years.

Easy no. My guess (with absolutely no basis other than the fact that he missed a lot more time than he should) is that Issac's injury is much more serious than was let on. Even an averagely 20-something-yr-old doesn't need 17 months to come back from an ACL reconstruction. The Magic drafted his replacement. It looks like they are not counting on him to come back anytime soon... and he's signed to three more seasons after this at $17.5M per. This looks like a guy you should stay far away from.
Until we see him back on court and playing like he used to. Issac shouldn't even be considered, imo. His trade value right now is a salary dump (by the Magic) until proven otherwise.

my guy.
We all know this. My grandma who doesn't even know the Kings are a pro team knows this. Everyone in human existence knows this except the people actually running/owning the team.
Which is why it's so dumb we follow this team in the first place.. ugh. Should have made a better decision 20 years ago.

I just don't see how fox and hali can co exist unless fox improves his off ball or 3pt shot considerably. At this point it's obvious you'd want hali doing majority of the ball handling. How often have fox and hali gone over 20 points in the same game. In two years I would guess I could count on 1 hand when both played great. I feel like it's inevitable.
I certainly don't envy monte and the predicament he's in. Tough choices to be made.

I read the article. I like Butler. He’s smooth. Though it wasn’t confirmed by Fleischer. More spec from STR. That said, I’m over these after the fact, would could’ve been trades from Monte. Dude has a clear pattern. He’s always processing rumored on the table trades, but somehow fails to pull the trigger—bogi x 2, Buddy, now Ingles…we’ll likely see a few more by the deadline. Results matter, Monte. Pull da trigger.
Of course he didn’t, but Monte is either the most cursed GM ever where random weird sh*t blows up his trades or he’s just sitting on them for way too long.
Since he’s been here:
1. Woj torpedoes a potential trade. Bucks def carry more of the blame, but it’s not like Bogi was roped into the sign and trade beforehand.
2. Monte refuses to take on Snell’s salary and thereby is unable to get a protected first for Bogi. Rumor was he was given an hour to decide, so he passed.
3. LA apparently uses Monte and Montrezell as pawns.
4. Now Ingles ACL blows up a potential trade.
5. What’s next?
