N/P Atlanta trades for Jeff Teague

Yup. Straight up tank trade as you mentioned. Interesting.

Is Robert Covington crewz favorite player?
Pels talk has been obsessed with this average player for a long time

If two 2nd could get Roco he would already be on the team

He is an average player, and he's paid an average salary. His +/- stats say he's much more than an average player though.

The fact that you think Covington is an average player let's me know to not take an of your post as anything of value

---

He'd be a good fit for almost any team and provide a lot of value / make other players around him better. But his career PER is a 13 and last two years PER is 14.5. That's average by definition

Yea RoCo is much more valuable than an average player and he fills a role that this team desperately needs.

Minnesota is intensifying its pursuit of Warriors star D’Angelo Russell.

I don't think Jrue would fetch all of this

Crabbe (buyout), Covington, Culver, 2020 Minny 1st, 2020 Warriors 1st

I think one of those assets would have to go to GSW to even get the convo started

Jrue is better than Russel and fits alongside Curry and Klay better than Russel. This is exactly the kind of move GS had in mind when they signed him.

We may not be able to get Warriors 1st, but I would want at least 2 1sts no matter who they come from.

But if you think Jrue wouldn't fetch that, you haven't been paying attention to trades lately

And every single time I've proposed a Jrue trade it's an overpay, which is exactly what it will take to get him.

If Minnesota really wants to keep KAT happy, they will overpay to get Russel alongside him
