TheNorthCydeRises Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Siakam still provides the opportunity to have a true 5-out lineup, with a big that can also pass. If the deal is Hunter + Capela + AJ for Siakam . . . how many are against that? Starters Trae DJ JJ Siakam OO Bench Bufkin / Mills Bogi Bey Gueye Bruno Because Toronto has decided to wait, and if the Hawks don't show desperation to make a deal, you can possibly pull off a deal like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameTime Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I'm now a JJ fan so we're good at the 4 now. I just hope we don't start undervaluing AJ in our trades on here now the same way we did JJ. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member JeffS17 Posted October 31, 2023 Premium Member Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Siakam is still interesting for the right price, but only if we believe JJ can play SF and share the court with him long term. That also requires one of Siakam or JJ to prove out their 3 ball to a respectable level. We'd have to move Capela in the deal and get a big backup C too. And JJ is shooting well this year so far (on a tiny sample), but that's actually very surprising to me. I watch him a lot in shootarounds before the games, in the open practice, and the practice tape they post, and the guy bricks a shitload of threes. Open gym bricking -- I hope he's just truly getting better but I wouldn't be surprised if his three ball regresses back down to ~30% 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if JJ surpasses him, we're winning a chip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace AJ in that trade for Bufkin and im 100% on board with this move. If they want a extra 2nd round pick in value while we keep aj and they get bufkin im down with that as well. PG Trae / Mills SG Murray / Bogi SF - JJ / Bey / AJ PF - Siakam / JJ / Gueye C - OO / Fernando Could still look for a good defensive big to add to the bench. I like AJ alot more than Bufkin and im pretty quick to move Bufkin in trades so far lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I am because I highly value Hunter. Never liked the idea of trading him. Didn't ever care for any rumor with him in it unless it directly replaces him which this doesn't 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t trade all that for an upcoming free agent. While I don't agree with this. I definitely think JJ is a lot closer to that 86 overall potential this year than he was last year where he was much closer to his 72 floor. This year, he's playing like a 82. I wouldn't put that with Siakam 86-88, he's not far from that borderline All Star level of 86 which was Josh Smith zone. He would have to significantly improve on defense and shooting to get to a 88-90 which is Trae's current zone. Siakam is a legit 86-88. Depending on his role and surrounding personnel. That said, JJ is ascending, Siakam has peaked. That said, he has a really good peak. If he goes anywhere, i would think somewhere like Philadelphia makes sense especially now that they have a lot of draft assets. It was always idiotic to think you were going to rape Atlanta on a trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made that [] thread and this is what he's pushing. Trade Dre even as Dre putting up the numbers [he] was begging Dre for. [] Thank goodness he ain't Landry Fields. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
