RE: ROSTER TALK: Mar 25 TDL | DAL has had interest in Aaron Gordon since Nov - DanSchwartzgan - 03-17-2021 (03-17-2021, 04:31 AM)omahen Wrote: I don't think this is the case. They have actually clearly said they will not let him walk for nothing in free agency. I agree that Atlanta wants to be paid for Collins. No way he walks for nothing even if they have to match a big offer and trade him later. I agree that Atlanta wants to make the playoffs and needs to replace Collins if traded at the TDL without hurting their chances. But, there are big advantages to Dallas getting Collins now and using his relatively small cap hold to do other things this summer. Dallas has a history of this (trading for Noel before he became RFA and trying to do it with Kemba in order to have his Bird rights). They have Schwartz as the agent here to help smooth the way. He or his firm were involved in both the Noel and Walker deals. Atlanta doesn't have to have a PF back. Lineups with Hunter at PF have been quite good and you still have Gallo and Solomon Hill who can take minutes. Moving Hunter to PF frees up more time at the 2/3 for Bogdanovic, Huerter and Reddish backed by Snell. They are a little weak at backup PG and C right now. Point is, if the other compensation is satisfactory, I think you can make a deal for Collins now and Atlanta can still contend for the playoffs. The benefit would be certainty for both teams. As we saw with Parsons, there are ways to design RFA offers that make it unappealing for the current team to match...especially if their intent is to match and later trade.

They aren't going to settle for Dwight Powell. Take it up with Bobby Marks. There is still plenty of room for Dipo this summer after a Powell trade. They are getting an improved asset(s) for their trouble, so it isn't just settling for Powell.

But I also think a gentleman agreement between the three parties (Atlanta, Dallas and Collins) could be beneficial for everyone involved. Problem with dealing now - which good players at PG and C would you give to Atlanta to move the needle? Brunson and WCS are basically best we can do. Unless we include a third team. RE: ROSTER TALK: Mar 25 TDL | DAL has had interest in Aaron Gordon since Nov - Chicagojk - 03-17-2021 Stupid question and not a route I am endorsing, but lets say for argument we let Hardaway and Richardson go in FA. And used our cap room to sign Lowry and Derozan. Would we still have the MLE for someone like Holmes (SAC)? Is Lowry and Derozan an upgrade from Hardaway and Richardson? Lowry, despite being older, is just a dog. Maybe his play will slip, but having two of Lowry, Brunson and Luka on the floor all the time really keeps two playmakers always on the floor. Derozan has a chip on his shoulder and wants a championship bad. He is also someone who can create off the dribble. Luka Brunson Burke/Terry Lowry Brunson Green Derozan DFS Holmes Maxi KP Holmes Solid 8 man rotation. You have areas for our young players to grow into and could also use minimums to fill deep bench.

We'd already be dealing with NY in a hypothetical where Powell freed up the 2025 first. So, I suppose someone could come from there to Atlanta to fill a ST need.

F Gump made a good point earlier. If you have determined JRich and THJ are expendable, why not trade them now. If you can pull that off for the players you are targeting, then you could operate over the cap and have the full MLE. I'd have a hard time seeing both of those happen in-season, but maybe one of them (I'd prefer Lowry).

They should demand good money even if it's on short term deals. RE: ROSTER TALK: Mar 25 TDL | DAL has had interest in Aaron Gordon since Nov - SleepingHero - 03-17-2021 Signing 2 all-star caliber players in replacement for inconsistent 3rd/4th guys would be an astronomical improvement. But because DeRozan and Lowry are that good, the chances of signing both are slim to none. Heck the chance of even getting one I'd put our odds at extremely low. RE: ROSTER TALK: Mar 25 TDL | DAL has had interest in Aaron Gordon since Nov - HanspardShowerVoice - 03-17-2021 The Fisher article detailed how Gordon was almost traded before his high ankle sprain to the TWolves for Rubio and draft capital. That would indicate... a) The Magic do value a potential floor general point guard. b) They're not asking for some crazy king's ransom for Gordon. The TWolves don't have a lot of draft capital to throw around. They owe the Warriors a 1st round pick .. either this year's 2021 Top 3 protected or 2022 unprotected. Rubio this year has been ... not good ... and is due $18 million next year. So I don't know where people are getting this idea that Gordon costs 2-3 first round picks.

That would indicate... From today's Trade Deadline Big Board article at The Athletic as it relates to Gordon: Given that the team has time before it has to make a decision, it would likely take a real haul for the Magic to give up Gordon now. Would a first-round pick and intriguing young player get it done? It likely depends on how good the prospect is, but this might be the time to cash in on Gordon while he’s at the peak of his value, given that he still has two playoff runs left on his deal. RE: ROSTER TALK: Mar 25 TDL | DAL has had interest in Aaron Gordon since Nov - HanspardShowerVoice - 03-17-2021 Right, seems to be a rather large disparity from what Fisher reports on Gordon and what people "think" Gordon is worth. Fisher also reported that the Nets were trying to get Gordon before the draft for one of Dimwiddie/LaVert + a draft pick. The Nets dealt their 1st round pick for Shamet, so maybe that deal was already in place and they unsuccessfully tried to secure another 1st round pick for a potential Gordon trade. I thought the Athletic article brought up a good point regarding Fournier on how close the Magic already are to the luxury tax next year without resigning Fournier. They've already got $118 tied up for next year. Aside from paying Vuc high end talent money, they're paying premium for a lot of high middle class players like Isaac ($17.5), Fultz ($16.5), Gordon ($16.5) and Ross ($12.5). Then just sunk cost money on nearly unplayable guys like Aminu and Bamba (~18 million combined). I suspect they'll want to resign Khem Birch, as they consider him a breakout player to build on going forward. So I do think there is some imperative for them to move some salary either at the trade deadline or the summer.

It was from the failed trade on draft night, where the Magic turned down the Blazers offer of 2 FRP and Ariza for Gordon. Portland eventually did the same exact deal for Covington instead. Since the Magic turned down 2 FRP for Gordon, many assumed that's what the Magic are still looking for. Given the new rumors though, it seems like they're more motivated to move him now more than ever. RE: ROSTER TALK: Mar 25 TDL | DAL has had interest in Aaron Gordon since Nov - Mavs2021 - 03-17-2021 Maybe we can send Dwight Powell and an advanced stats excelsheet to the Knicks for Julius Randle. Okay my last joke on that matter. Just too bored to repeat how much I hate the Gordon idea,unless it's straight up for Powell.

Some of you want to argue, but the above items are all accurate. If you want to think otherwise, you can, but then you would be wrong. 1 Brunson has no option and CANNOT be made a Mavs' RFA this summer. While his salary for 2021-22 is indeed non-guaranteed, that is not the same as an option. To remove the 2021-22 year salary, he would have to be waived, which means (a) all rights and ties are lost, (b) some other team could claim him off waivers, and undoubtedly would, and © if no one claimed him, he would be a UFA with no "prior team." 2 Yes, JRich could both opt in and extend but (for practical purposes) it would be two separate and technically independent transactions, with the option accepted before his deadline and the extension happening after August 1. There is precedent for the Mavs doing this - they did exactly that with Powell. 3 Dan, I'm not sure I followed your explanation of the mechanics of charges for empty roster slots, to know what your bottom line was. But the max amount a team with cap space can offer a FA via SNT that uses all their cap space with no players outgoing, vs a signing, is exactly the same either way. It's as simple as that. (The mechanics of the cap charges aren't different at all in the 2 situations. I'll leave it at that, since I think I can be best understood by noting how to eat the sausage, not how it's made.)

That seems like a weird contract then to give a 2nd round pick bc aren't most 2nd round picks RFA's when their rookie contracts run out? https://hoopshype.com/player/jalen-brunson/salary/ reports that last year as a team option but https://www.basketball-reference.com/ says non-guaranteed. |
