re: AD Trade Scenario Thread - Put yours in here

LAL: AD, Conley MEM: Ball, Kuzma, Hill, #4, 2020 LA 1st NOP: Ingram, Hart, #2, 2021 pick swap, 22 1st We get Morant to pair with Zion. Memphis gets 2 guys that fit their timeline, drop Conley and his salary, plus get a future 1st, and all they have to do is move down 2 spots.. LAl gets 2 "stars" to put beside Lebron, with Conley matching LBJ's timeline.

Wow I love that. Ingram and Ja would be amazing top 2 pieces.

You think Zion will have any say in the trade?

Absolutely not

NO-NYK-ORL

New Orleans:
Davis to NY

Orlando:
Vucevic to New Orleans

New York:
Ntilikina to Orlando
Knox to Orlando
Lance Thomas to Orlando
Plus 2019 #3 Pick and Both Dallas Picks

Robinson to New Orleans
Dennis Smith Jr to New Orleans
Trier to New Orleans

We give Orlando incentive with the picks and a solid squad right now with Gordon, Knox and RJ Barrett.

New York gets Davis.

New Orleans looks prepped to compete with a starting line up of DSJ, Holiday, Zion, Vucevic and Robinson or Randle at 4 and Vucevic at 5 for more offense.

Actually, Vucevic has been a premier offensive big for years, his draw back is and always has been the defensive end. Thats why you take Robinson, rim protector, rebounder and you let him and Vucevic learn from the other. That's consistent, night in night out production. The only problem I see there is the small backcourt but when your PG best position is SG you improvise. You also lack 3pt shooting in that starting lineup.

Truth is you have to take a chance on somebody to make it work in NO. You are not getting a superstar right now unless its through the draft. I think you need shooters around a player like Zion BUT you are gonna need offensive and defensive production down low to go with it. That trade I suggested gives you a wealth of pieces to start, that you can still trade and play with because youd be way over player limit anyway. Trade Davis without getting a wealth of pieces and you will end up in the same talent vacuum.

That would be horrible..

3 1st rounders for a guy who basically equates to Randle??

No way

You have to put players on the floor that can play together and compliment each other. The names I put there do that and fit into Gentry's system. They can run, score and could have 2 to 3 elite defenders starting. Its not just about putting names on the floor. Names that dont compliment each other still wont win anything.

As much as yall love Tatum and Ingram, they are both ball dominant players, who dont score unless they have the ball. Does not work well with Jrue who is also ball dominant. You need to spread the floor and give him an ability to play P&R with someone and in that scenario, you have 3 players who take an open lane and get a bucket pretty much at will. Like I said before all your missing is a kickout threat but you even can go post up. Multitude of was to score, multitude of bodies on the bench that can score. Cant do anything with 5 uncomplimentary starters and no bench

Not to mention giving up a top 3 pick, plus 2 more 1st rounders for the white Julius Randle....

Horrible

Other than the trade not being possible and the return for us sucking, I hated it.

Don't think you're elite board material.
