I say dump the chest for Claxton and Mikal.

Lets ride with that crew for the three year window and see what happens.

Well the reason I’d move pretty much anything for those guys is that

CJ
BI
Bridges
Zion
Claxton

Probably gets you the 1 or 2 seed next year if those guys are healthy

O dear god please no Griff. This one might send me over the edge. Sending out prayers now that we don't make a deal for him.

I'm driving the Bridges/Claxton bandwagon but I will say you only get those 2 for this season and next season.

Bridges is already making $20mil+, so short of moving one of our Big 3, we would have zero chance to keep Claxton after next season.

I'm not saying we should not do it for that reason, but just something to ponder in how we'd want to maneuver that, short of just letting Claxton expire after next season.

I mean if you can send graham + kira for duncan + 2 1sts then do it. Worst that can happen is you use a 1st in a year to dump him and you still have an extra 1st

Absolutely not

If you have to spend two 1sts to trade him, what makes you think we'll be able to trade him while attaching only 1 1st?

He has 3 years left on his deal...after this season.

I don't want any part of that, we are not a team in a position to be messing with that type of deal. THat's something a rebuilding team does.

Claxton will likely get 15-20 million on his next deal. Also remember that CJ’s contract starts declining after next season, and with the expected rise in salary cap may not be bad to keep all of them.

Because he would have 1 less year on his deal and his last year is only partially guaranteed. Graham + Kira make the same amount next year as duncan so it wouldn't affect your cap next year. If he bounces back you have a shooter and 2 1sts

ANything short of a deal for OG or a giga Claxton/Bridges deal will go over like a wet fart in church.

It would severely limit our ability to make the next move.

Wouldn't be excited about an OG trade unless we got a huge bargain.

Probably reading way too far into this, but KCB tweeted “today will be fun” a couple hours ago.
