Trade & FA 2023-24: HOU Targeting Mikal Bridges again!| Mitchell is LAL #1 Target

[omahen]

What are the chances of doing these moves after signing Grant Williams and if Portland does not match the offer to Thybulle?

Trade THJ + Josh Green + McGee to Cleveland for Jarrett Allen + Isaac Okoro
Trade Holmes to Charlotte for PJ Washington

Luka.................. Curry, Exum
Kyrie.................. Okoro, Hardy
Thybulle............. Williams
Washington........ Kleber, O-max
Allen.................. Lively, Powell

That asking for too much or are too pie-in-the-sky?

Stein thinks Mavs don't have the assets for Allen. I don't think Josh Green has that much value. I think he is somewhere on par with Okoro. So, if you exclude their equal value, you have THJ+McGee for Allen. I doubt Cleveland would have any interest in this. Even if we add 2027 pick.

In my opinion, Cleveland would trade Allen if they are getting better. They just signed three wings and have no use whatsoever for THJ. Even Green would be difficult to get minutes behind Mitchell and their newly signed SF brigade. What they could use would be a big wing to play next to Mobley or a better fitting center next to Mobley at PF. The theory of Kleber would fit description of this kind of player, but we all know about his durability issues. I doubt a contender would count on Kleber as their high usage starter. That is why I find a direct Mavs trade with Cleveland unlikely. Perhaps, if we could get in with our assets in a deal with a third team who has the piece for Cleveland but doesn't really need Allen.
