simply not available.


That’s a pricing issue in many cases. I just hope Griff will be flexible and has multiple targets in mind so he doesn’t zero in on one player to overpay for like with Adams. He’s going to make something happen.

The list doesn't have many really good players

That's why it's realistic :D
Bradley Beal, Zach Lavine, Luka Doncic (:D) etc aren't realistic imo.
If they want to be traded, they will want to play in winning teams...Pels currently don't win.

Jonathan Isaac has played 34 games in the last 2 seasons... I doubt he is as untouchable as yall think..

That said.. I don't really want someone with that injury history locked up for the next 5 years.

He's realistic imo but unfortunately too injury prone, that's why he isn't in my list, i don't want him.

Someone that covers the Kings posted a trade for if Richaun Holmes leaves in FA. Adams for Harrison Barnes. I would make that trade, so add Barnes to the list of targets.

We need to spend assets on the role players who are perfect fits. The team does not need to spend its assets on an expensive ball dominant star.

The team has plenty of ball dominant offense.

cannot see kings doing this.

barnes is still solid if unspectacular.

This wasn’t some Pels homer trade, it was a Kings beat writer. The question I have is if he thinks they’d trade for a $17 million center, are they not willing to pay Holmes that much, or does Holmes just want out?

I cant see them doing it either but Barnes is sort of a really nice fit next to Ingram and Zion because he can be your best defender and guard 2-4. Has improved as a passer and will do the dirty work.

But as you say, why would they? Harkless is a FA and wasnt very good, they would be left barren at one of the most critical positions when a guy 85% of what Adams brings can be had for a fraction on the FA market. Or, you know, just pay Homes that salary since he is the better fit and more versatile.

Now that the Heat have been swept does that open them up to any deals the Pels would be interested in? Maybe Griff can show them clips of how Adams defended Giannis really well.

Guess can add Collin Sexton to the people possibly traded list. The link is saying Cleveland might look to trade him because they don't wanna pay his upcoming extension.

Harrison Barnes would be awesome for this team if we are committed to Point Zion at the 5. Would be some crazy length 2-4 with NAW, Barnes, and BI. Need a PG like Brogdon to pair with that and you have something interesting.

Collin is a bit of a gunner, but he’s a dog (he’s the guy who went like 1 on 5 in college and almost won the game) and he’s a guard that can create his own shot which is technically what you need to win in this league. He also went toe to toe against Brooklyn’s big 3 and outgunned and outclutched them in their first game together this season.

I’d be all over trying to trade for him if he is truly available.

Barnes isn’t that guy anymore (if he ever really was). He’s had a worse DRtg every year since 2015, hasn’t posted a DWS over 2 since 2016, and hasn’t posted a positive DBPM since 2014 (his only one). The bigger issue is that he’s had his by far his most success in SAC playing down at the 4, which doesn’t help the Pels.

I would still strongly consider it and probably even make the trade, but it’s much closer than you think

Shamit Dua has been pushing for an attempt to get Duncan Robinson. I don't know what it would take to get him, but I agree with Shamit that he's the kind of player we really need to pair with Point Zion: someone with real outside gravity. Oh, and I like that Robinson has played in all 170 regular and postseason games for the Heat in the last two seasons.

Robinson is an RFA, and the stuff that I've read suggests that he's going to get a contract similar to Lonzo's -- are the Heat going to pay him? We could definitely look at a sign-and-trade opportunity.

But that's a big no thanks for me.
