2022 NBA Offseason thread

[The Q]

The idea would be Tatum not play terrible

Lol yes. So true

Ideally him and brown still develop into actual legit dudes there

That consistency historically comes with time and experience

But they have more experience than typical top 3 picks tend to have

I’ll take Ben Simmons

The one thing the Celtics lack is a real primary distributor

I’ll give them 23 and 25 firsts for Simmons
But I’d need to work on the salary matching issues, might need to take someone like Duncan off the heats hands to get another first

Celtics would have acquire Simmons first....?

3 team trade

Celtics have a 17m tpe

If they can get a salary match there, they can fill out the rest

Who would you have going to the Nets?

Some amount of firsts

Payton Pritchard
Nesmith

Salary match

Going in blind since Simmons hasn’t played in 18 months

I’m curious how many other teams would gamble on Simmons at this point

I read some teams backed off so we’ll see

He's an interesting risk. A bit rich for a Dray role (which seems to be his best fit), but to the right team? Sure.

.Apart from basketball, anyone who believes the world is flat is going to be consistently unstable and def flipped. This is what you get from Irving.

For the Celtics he’s be their starting pg since they really don’t have a true pg

Broussard suggested Irving and Simmons for Butler and Bam.

LOL.

I would think that the Lakers would be interested in him if there were a way to get him. He would provide elite perimeterdefense that they desperately need. Unfortunately, there just isn't a way to do it.

Yeah, someone would have to take Russ

You should let K2T know

Sure, but you don't really want him playing on the perimeter, since the defense will sag back off of him.

Need to hope someone like Jordan continues to be cheap and wants to dump salary for 2023.

 

[shopson67]

Broussard suggested Irving and Simmons for Butler and Bam.

LOL.

I suggest Broussard stop day drinking.

 

[DJ]

LMAO.

Riles would laugh his ass off and hang up.

You would want that headcase?

 

[Shanemansj13]

Didn’t NYK trade a 1st for Cam?
