Catalina Maria 64 Report post Posted July 27, 2019 There’s chatter on Instagram about us wanting Derozan. Is there any way this could involve Okeke? I hope not. Derozan is not really good anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted July 27, 2019 It's too difficult to make a DeRozan trade now because we don't have the matching salaries. A month ago it made sense because we could trade fournier and Augustin then replace Augustin in free agency with the MLE. We can't do that now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All depends on 1) our thoughts on MCW or 2) if they involve White or Murray, they got Mills too, but he’s too pricey. But, we’ve also had this same conversation many of times. If we were trading Derozan we wouldn’t have stretched Mozgov Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OnlyFranz 292 Report post Posted July 27, 2019 I agree with you about them being leaders in the community. They just set this franchise back far enough all these years to make me want to dislike them with all the boneheaded decisions they’ve made in the past. I hope they have really learned their lesson and let WeltHam do their job and build this team the right way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we're looking at trades (assumption 1) using okeke's rights it has to be for guys on low money contracts or else why not just sign him 3 weeks ago? Maybe they shop LeVert (assumption 2) because he's not as valuable as a complimentary player as we saw last year when he couldn't really coexist with Russell. But I don't know if LeVert is available. I don't know if they'd be interested in Okeke. Maybe we're not shopping Okeke at all. Maybe we're just sitting around waiting to see if anyone becomes available like Kyrie did that one year and if nothing happens in the next few days we'll sign him. It's just a weird situation that doesn't really make sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaylen Brown, Caris LeVert, Malik Beasley, Malik Monk, Luke Kennard, Lonnie Walker, Josh Okogie? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously, JB and Caris are 1A and 1B, but also would probably cost the most and are least likely to be dealt. Brown, LeVert and Beasley are all due to be RFA next year, which is a risk in itself considering how much money we already have committed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
