re: Pels not eager to trade Graham

I never said that we should trade for Duncan Robinson or that he is the ideal fit/ contract. I’ve always advocated for Sexton, Brogdon, Oladipo type players that would be 5th-6th in rotation.
I agree with y’all that we shouldn’t trade Graham and Kira for another mediocre 7-9 in rotation.
Hayes, Kira, Graham, and a future 1st can land a good player. If we get rid of Hayes then we can let Murphy/ Herb play some 4 and draft both a PF and C. That frees up space at the PG/ SG for our lottery and whatever player we trade for.
Other than this scenario we should keep Kira and Graham. I just think the emergence of Jose/ Nance makes this realistic.

With the four big salaries we need as many guys as possible in rookie contracts.
Hayes is going to expect starter money in free agency. He is not going to be a starter for NOLA when Zion returns so we can’t really pay that. He needs to be moved for future assets so we can keep bringing in young talent every year to support the starters. Hayes ha some value right now. Let’s get a future 1 for him if possible
Kira needs to show out next year or he is in the same boat.
Herb, Murphy and this years first are the next building blocks. When they have to get paid, you make moves with older guys like JV and CJ. We are fortunate to have a lot of legitimate NBA players with many future draft picks at our disposal. It is a unique opportunity to keep bringing in cheap, young talent and not have to overpay for a guy like Hayes down the road.

quote:Again, it is not just the player, but the salary. Without corresponding moves to reduce salary, we cannot trade 3 roster spots for one roster spot at a higher salary. Other than maybe Oladipo, that is what you would be doing.
