No, they wouldn't be. Indy would want Jrue

Yeah reason #1 why I'm confident Jrue won't be traded to the west. The odds should be 50% chance he returns to the pelicans and 50% chance he is traded to a eastern conference team.

How would a Hawks insider know this?
Unless their source is fricking Woj, this guy is full of shite.

Disagree, our window is 3-4 years from now, we should just take the best deal possible.

Suppose we do a deal with the Nets....
It’s possible there will be some shake-ups from the last few years playoff teams. Which team would take on Levert if he’s not the player we want, and who could we get either young player, veteran, or pick from that team?

I'll never understand this. WHo cares if he goes to the West? You don't get to make the playoffs just b/c you won your division. This isn't football. You want to win a championship, you have to be the best, which means you have to beat everyone else who thinks they are the best. If you don't want to trade him to a team b/c you think they'll be too good, that's one thing, but not trading him to a team simply b/c they are in the West is idiotic. If a West team gives you the best deal, you do it. You don't go take a lesser deal just b/c of conference affiliation.

East vs west doesn’t matter

Yes, you get the best value. Even if it meant trading Jrue to a rival. West v East doesn’t mean jack

There's also value in not helping a division rival who you play 4 times a year and you are competing with for the division title. Even if Dallas had a lot of assets, it'd have to be head and shoulders above everyone else's to get Jrue. Kind of like how the Lakers weren't just bidding against themselves for AD, they were also bidding against petty spite trades.

So basically he’s how Crews is now?!?!

I see your point tho

He's the beat writer for the Charlotte newspaper.
If Charlotte would do a Wiggins for Batum swap to move up to #2 from #3, then they could definitely be a facilitator.

Pels talk:
“Nicholas Batum”
Posted on 11/10/20 at 9:13 pm to jprdbulldog20
I wonder if some framework of this would work:
Pels:
3
Dinwiddie
Charlotte:
LeVert
Allen
Brooklyn:
Jrue
Not sure if Brooklyn would feel like they are giving up too much. If so, the same trade would work with us getting Kurucs instead of Dinwiddie. I only included Dinwiddie because there were rumors earlier that he could be had.

What would that deal look like for the Pels?

Charlotte wouldn’t do that. They want Wiseman.
Only thing that would make sense is some variation of
Pels: 3, Batum, Looney
Hornets: 2, Wiggins
Warriors: Jrue
Can’t figure out how to even up value about here though. Don’t love it.

Bruh, you mean I can finally get Batum on this team and you don’t like it 
ETA: obviously joking about the Batum part, but I would definitely take it. Picks 3 and 13 in this draft without taking on long term salary.
