Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Chicagojk]

Guys we are not trading with the Lakers again lol

We sort of already did twice in the draft.

I get it though.  I see no reason to trade PJ to the Lakers....if they had an interest.  Vanderbilt has proven he fizzles out when the games matter and has two years left.  That is not a good contract.  The pick swap may be worthless.  There is a chance Dallas has the better team when that swap happens.   

I can certainly see PJ may not be a great fit here.   I was disappointed in his play last year.    I am fine with seeing how he responds next year.  Maybe he is moved in a year.  Maybe he is here for several years and stays here when this team is good.    With a good cap sheet, I am in no hurry of getting off solid to good players.  Those days are gone.
