re: 2021 NBA Trade thread BREAKING: Bagley to Pistons in 4 team deal

I think it’s the Thunder getting Harris.

The Thunder have $34.6M in cap space, so they can make a trade for Tobias and only send out a minimum salary pretty much to make it work. Tobias makes $35.9M. The Thunder actually have to add salary to their team b/c they are around $20M under the minimum team salary you have to carry right now.

The Sixers are going to be able to improve their team, and get under the tax comfortably.
I think the Nets get better as well trading Harden for Simmons, assuming Kyrie and KD actually play. Have 3 ball dominant guys like that isn't ideal, and KD and Simmons can guard every position on the court, and do it at a high level.

I'm sure the Thunder could care less about Tobias, and just want more picks for absorbing his massively horrible contract.


Have no clue how we fit into this, unless we are moving Nance for someone, but i honestly don't know who we'd want from any of those teams, at least someone that was willing to be let go, so you'd think someone from OKC. I seriously doubt they give up Dort or any other young player with promise.

Maybe Patty Mills to the Pels? He fits into the remaining TPE space.

I can see us sending out Larry for something

I'm glad Griff is looking, but I just don't see any obvious moves that are better than keeping Nance.

PJ WASHINGTON. a 4 that can actually make 3's.

Y’all are thinking too small. The blazers are going to be added as a 5th team. CJ will end up in OKC, we give up another 1st, maybe a player and SGA/ Cam Thomas come in.

I was gonna disagree with this until I saw PJ also had another year of contract. Would be fine but I wouldn't want to give up assets for it so I don't see why Charlotte does the deal. I don't think he's enough of an upgrade to give up even a protected first. Unless you have reason to think we could do a swap for a second or two.

I think we ship Graham out, despite I’m not personally in favor of trading guys who just signed with us.

Beasley in ‘Sota is a guy I would target in general.

im hoping for Huerter. Idk if the money works but just blindly wishing without checking the numbers

Super valuable is a stretch. Would also depend who we got in return for him. Because if we were to acquire another shooter, it’s all good. Slide Jose in for Grahams second unit spot.
