This team would be a first round exit...lol

I'd rather keep Capela. 

I'm also confused how you are saying Atlanta can get two first rounders.  Seems like they would trade the pick and only have 4.

Hell no! That squad is f***ing insane. Top tier defense and everyone can play off the ball outside of Hunter and Trae. This also raises our floor massively.

If that Huerter deal is really on the table, Schlenk better stop there. Jaden Ivey is not worth #8 and JC. Much better off taking Daniels if he's still there or AJ Griffin then take a SG at #16 since we'd still have it.

Right now i'm super happy that most rumors don't come true.   I mean is there a Garrett Temple III that i'm not aware of?   Or are we talking about 36 year old Garrett Temple as an upgrade to the bench?

out: JC, Kev, Gallo, Capela  in: Bojan, Temple, Gobert, Ivey.   If i got that right i say No way unless someone convinces me that Ivey is prime Paul George or something.

yes... okay... fair enough...

But... the exchange also yields more of this...

I'm throughly confused after listening. 

Are you saying the Phx suns are bringing Ayton back and trying to ship out Cam Johnson? I just think that's a smoke screen to raise the asking price in negotiations for Ayton. 

Can you write the trades out because following along listening I got confused.

AJ Griffin

This is the dude. I thought the same about Saddiq Bey a couple years ago coming out. Him and Keegan if we get high enough for me. Again though we can’t go the rook route, we are on another trajectory right now, or should be with Trae. He’s a top 10 player in the league.

I think if we can pull of a heist like Huerter for #8 and filler you have to do it. There are multiple prospects in this draft that could surpass him by year two, and we don't need them to be immediate starters if Bogi's knees can be managed.

No. I didn't say nothing about Ayton. As far as I know, he's going to be available for a SnT. I can just confirm that Cam Johnson was offered to NO for 8. That's all I can confirm.

What I said was don't put your eggs in one basket, Brook Lopez 101.

Teams like Kevin a lot more than I feel the message board does. Even the organization loves Kevin and his beautiful contract

That would be a really nice starting 5.  Gobert/OO front court defense would be so good that our floor would be like #6 seed.  I don't know much about Ivey though so that piece is a question mark for me.  I would be very happy if that's the 5 we ended up with.  Gobert will be a 20 ppg player alongside Trae.  He will help open up our offense as he is the best screener in the NBA.  His defensive prowess playing alongside other good defenders will be like a multiplier for our defense.  He's been playing with minus defenders his entire career.  I hope we can retain Wright as well though as I love him off the bench.

[txsting]

I like 7/Hart for JC followed by 7/16 for 4 (Ivey), if that is in play.  I'd still be concerned about offense at PF, but rebounding would be insane when Hart/OO/Capela take the floor.

Kev is a turnstile on defense and we cannot have that next to Trae.  We really need a SG that is a plus defender

Haha, happens every Supesday.

And sorry @NBASupes but I cain't get excited about yet another team who can only score by being spoonfed by the smallest guy on the court.  Como se dice, MIA gameplan all over again?

ETA: And, I don't care what nobody says, OO is not a 4.  He just isn't.

Exactly what I was thinking. No way is Ivey worth #8 and JC. That is a massive overpay in my opinion.
