Brunson + Kleber + Wright for Oladipo

Back up PG, back up PF and another back up PG for a potential all star guard? Not going to happen. Not even to mention, Indy has already Brogdon and Holiday at PG, even McConnel can be potentially kept. Picks are more valuable here and THJ can produce more than the three mentioned guys plus he is a direct replacement for Oladipo.

Is Brunson truly just a back-up PG though?

I think you have to have an exceptional 18th pick to find a better PG than Brunson.

14 starts this year (25+ minutes)

13.3 PPG, 5.7 APG, 3.7 RPG, 37.7% 3pt FG

For comparison

Brogdon (full 2nd season stats)

13.0 PPG, 3.2 APG, 3.3 RPG, 38.5% 3pt FG

Oladipo (current season)

14.5 PPG, 2.9 APG, 3.9 RPG

Oh, come on. You are not trading for the current season Oladipo and he is not valued based on current season production. If we go into smaller sizes as you have, he was averaging over 20 points in the last three playoff games. If you are trading for Oladipo you are trading for him, because you are convinced he will be back to his old self. And Indy is selling at that price, not at 14 ppg price. Indy is selling, because they don't want to max him due to their cap situation. It's fine if you think he is not max player and don't want to trade for him because of that. But that doesn't change the fact, that Indy would trade him for a bunch of players that don't make them better.

Are you trying to imply Indy would see Brunson as more than a back up PG - as a substitution for Brogdon? It is even doubtful, they would see him in front of their current back up PG A.Holiday, who had even slightly better overall production than Brunson. Kleber as more as Turner? Do I need to bring in Wright and where Indy would see his value with their current point guards?
