[Mugen]

Detroit trades Grant to Portland for a 2025 1st

Woj

What kind of protections? That could easily be a top 5 pick.

Think they said it’s a Milwaukee pick they own in 25 so I doubt it’s all that great

[CGD]

Now I have to wonder if Portland will actually draft Sharpe at 7 or trade that pick for a player?

There was another rumor that they were looking to trade back to 11 to get Burks from Knicks.

Can def see NYK taking Sharpe there

It's the Milwaukee pick they own ...not their own...

Ive been saying Richardson + 9 for 7 makes sense….Burks is out for a while still

It's Milwaukee's pick and something like 1-4 protected. Also get a couple SRPs.

Agree on NY... I could also see Portland trading 7 for a Keldon type player (not KJ specifically but a young guy that can shoot a play alongside Dame/Grant and is on a rookie contract) and future draft capital...let's them add something now...capital down the road if this blows up...and if it works they'd own bird rights to go over the cap in a year or two..

[DPG21920]

Save y’all some time:

2025 first round draft pick from Milwaukee
Milwaukee's 2025 1st round pick to New Orleans protected for selections 5-30 or to Portland (via New Orleans) protected for selections 1-4 (Milwaukee's obligation to New Orleans or Portland will thereafter be extinguished)

That does make sense now too...

You'd waste Richardson to move up 2 slots?? Sheesh.

[vy65]

if the Spurs draft Dieng at 9

You SOn oF a , I’m IN

[scott]

With Grant going to POR, doesn't Duren start making a ton of sense with them at 7? Dame, Simons, Hart, Grant, Duren?

[mo7888]

Richardson would bring what on the open market? A late 20 something pick maybe.... it'd be like moving 9 + 25 for 7... that could be the difference between Davis and Mathurin/ Keegan...

They'll resign Nurk instead..

Terrible.

[mo7888]

Terrible.

9 + 25 for 7 is terrible?...hmmmm...ok...

[Mr. Body]

9 + 25 for 7 is terrible?...hmmmm...ok...

That's not what you said.

[objective]

So if I understand correctly, Dieng played like ass his entire career all over the world until the last month or so in Australia for the worst team in the league where nothing mattered

Sounds like a Wright pick for 9 all right

He can dribble behind his back though.

It’s not an automatic thing; but yeah, if SA loves someone that wont be there at 9 IDGAF about losing Richardson to get him

[objective]

Also I can't believe Grant was so cheap. Spurs could have equaled it easy, even beaten it easy

Probably spending all their time looking are 30 year old bench players to give a 3/42 deal to

[mo7888]

That's not what you said.

I said Richardson is worth a late first, which is equivalent to the 25th pick (incidentally that's what timvp said we are asking for Richardson)...so 9 + Richardson is = to 9 + 25

That's not terrible..

Speculation is that Pistons clearing space to max Ayton.

I value Richardson more than that. I don't value moving up 2 spots much at all.

Maybe not...but that's the value the Spurs are asking for Richardson....
