I don't *want* us to trade for Siakam, frankly, unless he agrees to sign an extension to stay. I want this team to do a soft rebuild or at least wait for the offseason to unload guys and get a third star.

I also have to be honest with what I'm hearing from my sources. It isn't the same as my opinion on things.

I'm preparing for the usual let down.  Probably trade Patty Mills for Dennis Smith Jr. and they'll shrug their shoulders and say 'we like our team'

Would love to see Bufkin play tonight. Less Matthews minutes, please.

Pull the damn trigger Landry!

Do not let a 4th or 5th option role player mess up a deal for Siakam.

This team is going nowhere without a major move. Trading for more role players is NOT a major move.

Do not let another team trade for Siakam. Don't let it happen!

 

 

As Soo Yung said in Rush Hour ...

"PUSH THE G-- DAMN BUTTON!"

The rumored offers for Siakam:

 

Pacers: Buddy Hield + Obi Toppin + one young player

Kings: Huerter + Barnes + one young player + pick

Hawks: Hunter + AJ + filler + pick

 

Which offer would you take?

If I was the Raptors GM I'm looking at this squad sans Siakam:

STARTER	2ND		4TH	5TH
Scottie Barnes	Immanuel Quickley	Dennis Schröder
Immanuel Quickley	Gary Trent Jr.
RJ Barrett
	Jalen McDaniels
Jakob Poeltl	Chris Boucher

Of the 3 offers, if I don't want Scottie at point and if I don't want to re-sign GTJ.. I pick Hield and Toppin but I want a unprotected FRP instead of young player.

I put Toppin at PF and Hield behind Barrett or GTJ

If Indiana won't put the pick in I take the Atlanta package and try to sign a PF in the offseason.

Good choices.  I'd take the Hawks offer but if Pacers add a pick i'd take that one.

Why not use the TPE for Drummond.  I bet Chicago would consider that move.  He's big and apparently can still play a little.  He dominated us like Shaq a few games ago.

Let me add he could the go to guy in the post and help this team tremendously now if he's in shape,  wouldn't cost a arm and a leg.

Why do people keep making Kat trades on other sites is their something im missing about him not wanting to be there that i haven't heard?  They seem to be doing great but i keep seeing his name popping up alot lately.

If they want to move him which i still don't think they do now but if they did i would wonder if a 3 team deal could get something done.  I would much rather target Kat than Siakam if i had my choice.   Maybe something like   Hawks, Knicks, Wolves    Murray to NY, Kat to ATL,  and whatever from both NY and ATL to wolves to make them happy?

We need another center, whether it's claxton or Drummond.

People can't imagine going that far into the Luxury Tax...   Soon they will be paying KAT, Gobert, and Edwards all at the superstar level.   Since KAT's haven't kicked in yet, people may believe that Minny's owners will do like the Hawks owners do and try to make a money move.

 

[theheroatl]

We won’t be trading DJM, JJ or Trae.

 

Im definitely on board with a Drummond or Claxton a herb jones type wing and a Caruso type guard… easy as pie.. get it done

Ah yeah i didn't even think about it from the lux tax pov. You could be right on that one if they cheap as heck like Ressler seems to be over the last few years XD

Twolves have a lot in the C position. KAT is playing out of position at PF. I would love to have him here.

If they move him it will be for a kings ransom. What we gave up for DJM wouldn't be enough.
