No doubt. He’s a nice player but next year I think that salary is like $37 million. That’s just disgusting.That's a tough sell. He's makin bank

cmonThis year's free agent class is beyond weak. Andre Drummond may go down as the biggest name on the move in that department, which should tell you something.
Don't get your hopes up on Russ being traded. Perhaps this is the year Portland finally looks to move on from Dame, but they wouldn't exactly be selling high...
It's not especially likely that Brogdon is moved either, though I would look to pawn him off on a desperate Laker or Dallas team. Maybe Washington if they are able to match his salary in a deal.
And for God's sake if I'm Kemba Walker, I'm opting out of that trainwreck in New York in any way possible, even if I have to accept less money to do so.
MLE for Looney? lol.Looney is limited but he's valuable for what he brings. He's a big who can switch out and defend on the perimeter, rebound and defend at a decent clip. I think MLE is around his value because there's no real upside to him. He's pretty much maxed out on ability and production.
LOL you right. I didn't realize the MLE was all the way up to 10M per. That's too much.MLE for Looney? lol.
KCP, Hachimura, and the WAS 2027 first would be a good haul for us in a Brogdon deal.cmon
itll be interesting to see the Lakers do everything possible to rid themselves of RW and see what vet. min. guys they bring in.
Cavs should be interesting.
Your pacetrs should be fairly intriguing too now that they should have some cap room.

Killing two birds with one stone. We'd officially be handing over the keys of the franchise to Haliburton and getting Rui would allow us to wash our hands of the burden that is T.J. Warren's foot.
I’d still do it. Pritchard probably won’t, though.Why would the Wizards give up all that for a player you are itching to get rid of?
Stop dreaming.
Brogdon is a good player, but he is always hurt. The Wizards would probably take him on, but it would be more like KCP and Hachimura for Brogdon and a 2 from the Pacers.
You ain’t getting a 1st and a young player for Brogdon.
Take that back... You guys hosed Dallas in your last deal. I'd demand the second rounder you got in that trade.I’d still do it. Pritchard probably won’t, though.

You guys need a PG like fish need water. Demanding a pick that isn’t even yours shouldn’t be a dealbreaker. That Dallas trade was the ultimate fleecing. To score a pick while unloading one of the worst contracts in basketball in Bertans is robbery.Not happening.
You can’t have your cake and eat it too.
You want Brogdon gone because he is a bad contract. You don’t get multiple assets in return for a bad contract unless you are also taking back a worse contract.
That isn’t happening in your scenario.
While I don’t think Rui + KCP has Much trade value, I think that duo has more than Brogdon who was negative trade value.

Rui would be the price for the Pacers, and even he has minimal value to the Wiz being parked behind Kuz and his stat-stuffing ways. KCP would just be a one-year rental for the Pacers at best…
Below is what T.J. Warren had to say about the Pacers upon his recovery… Sounds as if he wants to be back. That said, if we’re able to land Rui in a deal for Brogdon, I would let him walk in a heartbeat.KCP is a contract match, nothing more, nothing less.
Rui is an asset.
You don’t get 2 assets and an expiring contract match in exchange for a bad contract.
That just isn’t how players are valued in NBA trades.
So yes, you are being unrealistic asking for Rui and a pick.
Any hopes of Kyrie and KD switching teams was all for naught, and frankly I couldn’t be more thankful for it. Dejounte Murray, Malcolm Brogdon, and Jalen Brunson are now the biggest possible names to switch teams…Offseason been sooooooo boring
You don't think much of Ayton or Bridges?Any hopes of Kyrie and KD switching teams was all for naught, and frankly I couldn’t be more thankful for it. Dejounte Murray, Malcolm Brogdon, and Jalen Brunson are now the biggest possible names to switch teams…
Sorry Burks not Burke, but you know thatI'm trying to figure out what is in it for the Pistons to be helping out the Knicks clear up so much cap space. Eating Kemba's contract to get #13 pick, okay, but Burke and Noel?
I wouldn't call that helping...help clearing space to overpay a very good player. We all thank you Detroit!! This will put New York into purgatory.I'm trying to figure out what is in it for the Pistons to be helping out the Knicks clear up so much cap space.

I think Detroit likes their young core and they don't think they will get Bridges or Ayton so from that aspect it makes sense. Those are all expiring contracts, Noel and Burks have clubs options next year and Detroit will still have ton of cap space with more options next season. Let your young core get experience together, still 2-4 years away anyway.
