If I were the Cavs: if you like RJ that much try and trade up. If not, you can trade back with the Hawks and you still have a good chance to get two targets at 8 and 10.

My pistons fan friend said the hawks were working on a Blake griffin deal.

OUCH! Not a fan of Blake's at all, especially with his contract. $115M over the next 3 years. Maybe your Pistons' fan friend is wishful thinking?

That can only get you so far, especially with the new draft format.

You gotta be able to find the kawhis, capelas, klays, Paul George’s, and Draymonds who are outside the top 10.

Yeah I'm not so sure the Hawks want to uproot their rebuild to be a lower seed playoff team at best and take that huge contract for an injury prone player. No thanks

Clippers Not Willing To Include Gilgeous-Alexander In Davis Offer

June 7th, 2019 at 11:30am CST by Arthur Hill
The Clippers are among the teams reportedly trying to trade for Anthony Davis, but rookie guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander won’t be part of any offer, ESPN’s Bobby Marks said yesterday on The Sedano Show (hat tip to Larry Brown Sports).

The 11th pick in last year’s draft, Gilgeous-Alexander quickly became a starter in Los Angeles, averaging 10.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists while playing all 82 games. He also proved to be a capable playmaker and an aggressive defender.

Still only 19 and with a $3.95MM salary for next season, Gilgeous-Alexander would be an attractive asset to offer the Pelicans, but the Clippers seem determined to hold onto him. That makes it more likely that young, affordable players such as Montrezl Harrell($6MM in 2019/20), Jerome Robinson ($3.57MM) and Landry Shamet ($1.995MM) will be part of the Clippers’ offer. Danilo Gallinari ($22.6MM) may have to be included for salary-matching purposes unless L.A. uses cap room to absorb Davis’ salary.

The Clippers were on the list of four preferred destinations that Davis gave the Pelicans when he submitted his trade request.

crazy think about Crabbe is that you could just re-ship him at the trade deadline as an expiring contract if you wanted to take back some long-term bad money and probably get another asset.
Yep.....might eventually do that with Brandon Knight.

Sure, but at some point you want to stop wasting roster spots and cap space and chase FAs instead.
Probably gonna need to build via a trade I think as tough to get FAs to come here.

They might as well just announce they're not going after Davis.

I agree with this.

I think they may be really into either Hunter or Culver. Moving up guarantees them 1 of those players.
I like it for Atlanta...trouble for them is if Cavs like those 2, as well.

They have some picks to give up for other teams, plus Robertson who was a lottery pick and shamet, who showed some promise. It’s possible. Probably not the best offer though.

No probably about it... that's not the best offer... not even close.

Celtics, Knicks and Lakers all have that crushed.

If you love someone at 5 ya gotta take him. Though could take someone there for Atlanta who you like also and move him if someone you like is there when Atlanta picks.

Yeah IF you do. All I can go by is rumors but it seems like the Cavs have a few guys that like, if thet is the case I wouldnt be totally opposed to them trading back and getting two top 10 picks, possibly future picks as well

Trading a guy like AD, the best offer will not be the most collective talent, but most top tier talent. The Clippers would need to get a third team in there to see if they could put together a more solid package.
