CTMagicUK 1,170 Report post Posted January 17 13 hours ago, Soul Bro said: I’d do Anthony, Ross and Bamba for Conley and Agbaji I’d love to get more stability at our backup point guard spot, and these guys are expendable to me. I don't think Utah would do this at all. Edit: to expand on this slightly, I imagine the price for Conley will be a first and matching salary from a contender. Agbaji was a lottery pick and they're a rebuilding team. Bamba has no value to Utah. Ross is just salary. They might like Cole but I don't imagine they'd trade Agbaji for him straight up never mind the inclusion of Conley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke_FfS 193 Report post Posted January 17 Also, Ainge again. We, as fans, always tend to overvalue the market of our guys, even of the ones we want to get rid of. If we can trade 2/3 guys we don't see in out long term plans, for one player that gives quality to our rotation, would be already a W. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Portland in no man’s land currently and trying to decide whether to make a run or not with Lillard …trade deadline Feb 9 …probably not enough time for Issac to reestablish his worthiness …was trying to figure out if we had anything to entice Portland since we need guards .

matthi32 5 Report post Posted January 17 Would love to trade for Vassell. Perfect Wing for our roster. Maybe a 3 tean trade: Cavs get: McDermott, Ross and our Nuggets pick Spurs get: Bamba, Cole, Okoro and our Bulls pick Magic get: Vassell, Rubio and Osman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't really see why the Cavs would do this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,230 Report post Posted January 17 Quote The Suns and Magic have emerged as potential free-agent suitors for All-Star guard VanVleet, league sources say. VanVleet — the 2019 NBA champion and one of the league’s greatest undrafted success stories — spoke recently about his pending free-agency status in the offseason and how he remains focused on the Raptors: “I’m completely focused on his team. My loyalty is to this team and to this franchise and trying to get us back to the level that we’re accustomed to around here. https://theathletic.com/4098049/2023/01/17/nba-trade-deadline-poeltl-collins-vanvleet-shams/?source=user_shared_article Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
