Spud2nique Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Let’s grab Serge and go in a surge. Seriously Ibaka might be perfect. The only thing that stinks is his nagging injuries lately but then again with load management I forget who is injured and who tends to just play less and sit out for periods in the season aiming for the critical playoff time. Serge would be my top 3 free agent big I think. He’s been through it all with OKC and the Raps. Lotta experience, true vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kg01 Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 If we end up trading Gallinari, anybody think making a short-term run at Derozan would be a good idea to replace his production? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomFan Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Don't laugh but Kelly Olynyk would be a viable, much cheaper, option for Gallo. Obviously not as good a player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we want to replace him. If you can get a great return for him, he is the best option to move this off season. I'd love to run it back though to see how far this team can go. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomFan Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Gallo is our highest paid player. Let that sink in, lol. And yeah, it's not a question of want to move Gallo, it's just following the smoke and making speculation. I love Gallo for what he brings, BUT that isn't worth $20M if we can spend that money more wisely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. I like Derozan right now if he buys into his role of coming off the bench to be our 2nd unit go to guy. Every other times he’s been brought up the last 10 years I haven’t wanted him. Now, it kinda fits. His price and role may be too much though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not as good a player. Not at all laughing that slim ball can ball a bit. I hated him ever since 2013 when we got Dennis and the Celts took him and even in our playoff experiences against him. Lets put it this way. He’s craft, knows how to play and works in the second unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t tell this to Stu, he said the chances are very slim. I still say there’s an 18% chance Gallo is flipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTB Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Only reason we should ever do a trade with Minny at this point is if it gets us KAT back and the chances of that are very slim . But if i were schlenk im staying away from Minny on anything else. just to venture off on the impossibles and since we talking about trading with the T Wolves…. I would be willing to do a deal that would SnT Collins, Bogi, Gallo for Towns, Rubio, Malik Beasley. The deal should work salary wise assuming Collins gets a deal with atleast 22 mil per season. Hawks Starters: Trae, Cam, Hunter, Towns, Capela Minny Starters: Russell, Edwards, Bogi, Gallo, Collins Hawks would be betting on Trae and Towns to deliver heavily on offense while as the 3rd option offensively Hunter can do some damage there as well and add his pts , of course play top notch defense on top of all is that. Minny Minny does it only if Towns isn’t happy you but outside of towns this trade puts a ton of pieces around Antony Edwards who to me is the real star of the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators macdaddy Posted July 23, 2021 Moderators Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Gallo fills a lot of roles for us including leadership which is important. But also a great role model individually for players to realize that if you keep adapting your game and play your role then you can still make $20 million at 30+. The dude was a starter when he signed here and said "I'm happy to backup JC and help this team win". He'll be easily tradeable after this season. No reason to be hasty to move him. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
