Trade & FA 2023-24: Stein-Ingram Trade Inevitable| LAL Want Lebron Back On Any Terms

[DallasMaverick]

What do you think it would take to get a Bruce Brown, DFS or Thybulle this offseason?

I am just wondering if Hardaway just may not bring back much...even as expiring.  He is more important to us that what he brings back, but we really need to balance the roster out there.  There are several shooters who may be available either via FA or there teams looking to move them.  Hardaway may just not have value.  In fact, his value to teams may be more of an expiring than anything he does on the court.  He is much better than Fournier but Knicks couldn't find any takers for him....until they found a team who does weird things.

So I wonder if Hardaway plus 4 seconds would be enough for one of those guys above?  I would think Brown and DFS may get better offers.  Thybulle?

Traditionally, guys who can score almost always are valued more highly than guys who can play defense. So I’m guessing Timmy still has significant value, especially with his reasonable contract.

A team that acquires him as an expiring can probably have confidence they can re-sign him at a moderate price. He doesn’t have a ginormous ego. Just a competent player who fits in and knows his role.
