The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[The Q]

you do realize Detroit RECEIVED 2 2nd rd picks to get him right? lol

Now he's going to land someone Murray?

Come on fam

You don’t get how this works?

The hawks don’t want any 2024/25 salary

They want an expiring

It will likely be something like russell and some lakers 2s from Murray deal for Harris

 

[Stakesarehigh]

My whole point being if the Hawks POV is moving off Murray and getting draft compensation and expiring deals then they'd be seeking a bad team to deal with.

Maybe LA loops in a bad team to fit the bill on draft picks but what are they getting in return then?

My entire premise is looking at this as Atlanta thinking they could pair Trae with D Lo (which btw is an absolutely horrendous defensive backcourt) and get draft comp back.

But giving away Murray for some weak firsts seems pretty insane.

Not your fam, lol.

He's a matching, expiring salary that can provide a skill to the Hawks for the remainder of the season. If 2nds are needed, I'm sure that's not an issue. This would be in lieu of DLo, along with JHS, a future 1st and a pick swap (reportedly).

I do get how it works. It's absurd to think Atlanta is just going to give away Murray for what amounts to weak draft compensation.

Then what?

Whats their path from there?

So basically they traded 3 firsts and a swap for a year and a half of Murrray to get

a worse first rounder and a swap and JHS?

lol yikes if so.

Well.....the trade didn't work out with Trae and Murray so now they are moving on. And they probably aren't getting flooded with offers that are blowing them away so....

Better go get something and move on.

I'm with @thunderc at this point. The whole league must look at LA as a welfare case or something.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Like Mecca said they traded Collns for very little and it's not exactly one of the better franchises....

 

[dtgold88]

if he does it's solely to fill salary. He's borderline unplayable at this stage for anyone with any kind of aspirations.

Have to admit I did not even know he was on Detroit.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Yes. to extend Murray and Okongwu (sp) and get under the cap lol. And they got a exception.

Good God man this is Washington Bulletesque shit if this goes through as that.

 

[Shanemansj13]

The Hawks plan is to get so bad defensively they lose games and get a top pick. Sorry...too late for that, should have thought about that before you gave up 3 1st's and swap for Murray.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Quick reminder the Hawks made the ECF in 2020 2021

How many times in NBA history has a team been built around a young star (not superstar)...make a conference finals and then go full Washington Bullets within 2 years?

His trade value is cratered

And the teams that need a guy like capela don’t have expiring deals

They’re in a bad spot

They should sell trae first, then let Murray rehab his value at his Normal spot


But they won’t

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

 

[shopson67]

Celtics trading for Cedi Osman?

That's wild.

Well, they are not doing so well at the moment so why not blow it up?

 

[The Q]

Celtics trading for Cedi Osman?

He would make sense

Not an ideal fit but a guy who could help

 

[DJ Fieri]

I think the Knicks make another move before the deadline.
