Yeah I’ve mentioned Conley.

Makes alot sense to me

But I don’t think you get vandy on the deal. Maybe gay

I assume Gay would be an easy throw in, but looking for that sneaky piece for the future.

Maybe they're just talking about how neither wants him lol? Although, if you could move Duncan Robinson for him?

Yeah that would be the way. But still doesn’t solve their biggest issue

Worse was never should have happened.....ball was OOB on Utah and we should have gotten the ball.

Do they not look at these like they used to (a lot)? Is a challenge needed to get them to look?

Did you see the nice ovation Mitchell got when the starting line up was announced?

Warriors need to make a trade in the worst way. This roster just ain't cutting it as it is right now. I get it the team has a bunch of injuries and both Lamb and Jerome are playing well, but there's no way they should be relying this heavily on two way players.

I've been playing with the trade machine and one trade I think could help both teams would be:

James Wiseman and Moses Moody for Alec Burks and Isaiah Stewart. Wiseman and Moody fit the timeline with upside for the Pistons to develop. Burks isn't of much value to them long term but he can be a bucket for the Warriors. Stewart would be the high energy hustle guy the Warriors desperately need.

For a 33 year old? That asking price is too much.

Depends. What teams area really trading for him? It's not going to be any high lottery eligible teams. It'll be contenders. So the unprotected pick is kind of meh. Young player I can certainly see them wanting something else of value.

Has to be a starting point somewhere.

Burks won't command a 1st. Bev to match salaries and they cut him. Plus a few 2nd rounders.

Yeah....not gonna take much to leapfrog those teams. Especially if AD returns in the next week or 2.

Why would they give him away

That was really nice to see/hear. Glad he got some recognition for his time there.

Some of these teams going to drag these trades out until 2/9 trying to wring out any extra value they can.

No surprise there. Asking that for a 33 year old is silly though.

No doubt about it. Even the Jazz announcer said Mitchell's name differently than the rest of the starting line up and the arena cheered. Glad their fans realized he didn't demand a trade. Ainge got rid of him.

That's a good question. Will any contenders want him? It'll be interesting to see what the Pistons get for him.
