He's Atlanta first choice and we are his.

Sounds like the Hawks getting runner up status again for the 100th time.

The bottomline is unless they want Dedmon and to do a 3 way deal for a big they covet like Adams or Drummond, or they are giving us a draft asset for Hayward's TPE, it doesn't make sense for Atlanta to do this.

If Dedmon is the only sacrifice for Hayward I'm still for the S&T

Have you heard anything about Smart being in the deal with Hayward?

I have a feeling Smart is included. Why else would we even do a SnT if Hayward is our first choice and we are his

Ohhh plot twist for me.

Dedmon is huge for them, it gives them the ability to be a player for a starting big with one of their picks.

Ya'll gotta stop talking about Smart, Boston sees him as integral

Agree that this is the only way it makes sense to help Boston.  They have picks to spare, too.  In fact, I'd demand #14.  And when they whine, say, "Okay then #26 AND #30 then."

Worth mentioning that sending them Dedmon reduces the TPE...

If that's the case how does a SnT benefit either party? What else is in play? Smart?

Unless Boston takes Dedmon or gives us a draft asset, it doesn't. 

Dedmon would be massive for Boston. Its unlikely he would play a second for them but he can help them get Adams or Drummond and ultimately, that's 100% of his value for them

I assume if Dedmon is part of the deal, the “mega trade” is even more dead than it likely was?

We get an asset for facilitating, Boston gets a TPE the value of whatever Gordon's salary is, it's valid for 1 year for them to use to acquire a player(s) equal to the value of the TPE.

Dedmon is a filler. If anything removing Dedmon in return for cap space adds a lot more value to the deal.

If it's draft capital then fine. Sounds good. Ask for 14. Then trade 6 and 14 to GSW and take Antman. LOL

[capstone21]

So does this mean the ‘mega’ trade is over?

Is the 3 teamer still on track to be completed at the draft tomorrow or when FAcy starts Friday?

Trying to make sense out of why we’d be willing to do a SnT for guy who apparently already wants to come here.
