I guess Heat have to pay to get rid of Rozier, anyway. Might aswell get a good player in return, their salaries are near-identical.

He averaged 15/10/1/1/1 on 63% TS% shooting, including 39% from 3 in the 2021 ECSF against Giannis and Milwaukee. He was their 2nd leading scorer behind Trae Young. He was 23 years old then. He's considerably better now at 27, almost 28.
The three teams that exist in the NBA are Miami, Los Angeles, and San Antonio.
One is trying to get everyone but doesn't want to pay anything, the other one wants to get everyone but doesn't have anything to offer and the third one doesn't actually want anyone.
A faction of ST hates him now. The Why Waiters.
Does the Kornet move inmost people's opinions on acquiring Collins?
"Aggressively shopping" implies the asking price is low, and Collins is on an expiring, though large, salary. Trading for him should be a no-brainer for many teams.
Maybe the Jazz are insisting on only getting expiring deals in return, or extra draft capital if the Jazz have to absorb salary, and teams are balking at that?
The Ainge kid is probably taking notes out of dad's playbook and not making any deals unless he's outright fleecing teams. Probably asking for FRPs
They aggressively shopped Clarkson before Collins and had to eventually buy him out.
Teams know theyre cleaning house. No need to give in to demands.
Yeah. Teams might just wait for him.
i would imagine with the spurs the hangup would be the jazz insisting on getting HB's expiring
though who knows, the friendship crew might prefer to keep keldon anyway![]()
Just wait for him to be bought out. No reason to trade assets. If he is not bought out now he will be by the trade deadline. I’m not make any deals with Ainge. Period
he will never be bought out. Plenty of teams want to trade for him and would offer an extension.
I got the topic le at the ready, tbh.

Get it done, Brian!
That’s cool with me! Let those teams trade for him
If the price is SRPs we're going to trade for cash anyway, plus Keldon... then it seems like a deal we should do. I'm not even a big Collins stan, but he's a low commitment option at PF. And could still be flipped at the deadline if the mythical "star deal" materializes... in fact, he'd probably be more valuable than Keldon in that regard to as an expiring (on an even larger contract). Just don't extend him if we do trade for him.
collins is definitely an overpay this year, but we're operating above the cap and wouldnt be approaching the apron anyway. and he winds up as another expiring deal in addition to HB, instead of being committed to another year of keldon
Pretty much. It's hard for me to understand how anyone wouldn't be willing to do something like Keldon + Branham + one or two SRPs (don't we have 4 next year?) for Collins. Obviously if Ainge is demanding FRPs then it's a different story.
i'd comortably give 4 second rounders
Holt Jr looks up from behind his phone, where he's texting his YPO buddies about the Summer 2026 Cabo trip he's planning with that SRP cash "the you would, bucko"
Andre Drummond exercised his 5 mill contract for the Sixers next year so word is they are trying to move him. Still grabbed almost 8 rebs in 19 minutes per game.
Not saying he is perfect, but maybe we can unload a player and fill Mamu's spot if nothing else is available
there zero market for this guy too much money not a modern player. probably wants an extension and starting position.
Spurs may be holding off on trades and waiting to see if a disgruntled NBA star gets put on the trading block. No reason to rush.
