The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[DJ]

And to think they traded Doncic for Trae in the first place

It's why they are the Hawks....

 

[DJ]

Can't wait for the 4 hour trade deadline extravaganza on ESPN. I look forward to that every year, wether or not the Lakers are looking to make moves.

Really good story on Forbes about the CBA.

@Stakesarehigh the Pistons are mentioned in it.

Would the Nets trade Bridges for Garland and pieces? I don't think they would but it is interesting.

Raptors' Bruce Brown May Be A Harbinger Of A New NBA Trade Trend

The recent Pascal Siakam trade could become a blueprint for rebuilding NBA teams with significant salary-cap space.

TLDR

It’s an abomination against well run and committed franchises

Older but he might fit better with a graybeard like Bron.

Depends on what they want.

The nets have a really good foundation for a title team…but no star

A first

Should be doable

Except again, you have little in expiring deals

So we will not get anything done before the deadline since teams only want expiring deals and picks.

Got it. Thanks for your input.

Bridges would be a great get for you guys. The mini me backcourt seems to be a playoff issue.

Bridges and somebody for Mitchell.

Not sure what detroit does.

It would seem if Weaver had any designs on remaining employed he'd spend on a semi reasonable player (s) with a future. But again the Pacers parlayed Brown for Siakam (kind of)

If the Pacers fail on Siakam obviously that's Detroits big target but after that it wouldn't be ridiculous to see them go after Miles and one other guy.

Not sure that would be Harris as the article suggested. But 2 for 40 is a lot more reasonable than 39 million he currently makes.

Bridges and somebody for Mitchell.

or that

 

[DJ]

Bridges and O'Neale for Mitchell.

That wasn't the question. Mitchell might be the guy you want to build around.

25-8 since the Mitchell trade w/o Garland. Mitchell and Bridges would be nasty. I highly doubt BKN would do that though.

Yeah, because he wants to be there.

LOL.

Miles and another guy might be your best bet.

You have like 50-55 mill in cap space?

Plus a bunch of guys to fill out the roster. You have like 7 guys under contract for next season.

Just looked up your salary cap.
