Lol 2 minutes ago, JayBirdHawk said: I guess the question is - does this deal make sense for Toronto in taking Oladipo and Turner, where both Dipo and Lowry both become FAs next offseason? Honestly the reason I felt like raptors may do the deal is because it would free up even more cap for Ujiri to go after Giannis but it doesn’t matter now since @thecampster said that’s not the deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pascal is definetly a better defender than John and he can decently spread the floor with Capela. He shoots about 36% from three on six attempts per game. He's much better defender than John and he wouldn't be looked at as the number 1 or 2 option here. He's a perfectly good #3 option. The only thing he is better at is defense. I just don't see him as clearly better in any other category. That role can be filled by JC just fine and he can be #3 behind Trae and Hayward if we sign him.

These little details are moving a TON of capscase. At a minimum moving Caris Lavert, Tauren Prince, AND Spencer Dwinddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deal should be 3 years about $85 million per year and declining salaries. I think that's a solid deal for both teams and it doesn't kill the Hawks cap sheet.

h4wkfan Posted November 15, 2020 Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 I know it’s already been shot down, so it’s not really trade related, but I feel like a lot of you are overrating JC’s impact to winning basketball and underrating Pascal’s.

Premium Member JayBirdHawk Posted November 15, 2020 Premium Member Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 Here's a really CRAZY one from out of left field: Dipo and Turner to Jazz (Jazz don't have to pay Rudy the max) Rudy Gobert to Indy (Indy prefers paying Rudy a max vs Dipo) Bogdanovic plus salary to Hawks.

Here's how I see it. Toronto paid Siakam as a #1 option that would take over after Kawhi left, turns out he isn't. JC is a piece of the puzzle here and I don't think he'll be paid a max contract. At the start of the season, I had Pascal ranked high above JC, now he may still be higher just not as much since JC has added his 3 point shot with improving defense and just turned 23. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC is under contract to the Hawks for this year. Hawks have the right to match any deal next year. Teams offering an RFA tend to either offer less because they worry the team will match or over offer. There will only be a few teams who will be able to over offer for JC next year. We control his fate for 5 years if you look at it right. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a fan of contract either. I guess ultimately (especially with Trae) I don’t know if (and am really hoping I’m wrong like more times than not) we could win it all with JC. I’m a huge JC fan, but the raptors don’t win their ring If they switched teams. Even if it was Collins from last year on that team. I guess we could. Just a lot more has to go right for Trae + JC to win than something like Trae + P would in my opinion. Like I said. I’m more wrong than I am right. Hope JC stays and proves me wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
