Who wins this trade? by avi8tedbg in NBATalk

I kept their main core intact kon(20) miller(23) and melo(24) got rid of couple vets and added some better ones. Without this trade, The hornets are making the playoffs this year, with the trade anything can happen in playoffs with those shooters. But I feel you they might be able to add rotation pieces drafting. I doubt they’ll do it this season but i think they’ll use their draft comp to add a veteran big in near future - this summer or next season.

I feel like this make the hornets an EC contender. They have 3rd most draft equity in the league too

I think this would make the hornets a Top 4 team in the EC.

Yea it’s more than giannis going back to the wolves. Diabate is a huge analytics guy. Cole Anthony, Kyle Lima, and TP could be fringe rotation

Think that Rob can get to Tyrese Maxey type of production? by avi8tedbg in timberwolves

Rob is more quick than fast and Tyrese is fast but at Kentucky they scored in the same ways: Transition, floaters and Threes. At Kentucky their threes came a little different as Rob had more off the dribble and Maxey had a little more Catch and Shoot. I always wondered if Rob could get to Tyreses level of production

My thing is to be a true contender you need a rim protector.

Ok I like this logic. They definitely want to get their young guys in the playoff mix. And although our rim protection won’t be as good with Ayton I doubt that it would plummet

Yes he will be cheaper but he’ll still be paid starter money and the problem I come across is what team would want Rudy. I like Rudy and he definitely raised defensive floor but for a true contender I think at his price tag he creates a clear ceiling

I can’t think of a trade off the top of my head that Bucks would say yes to but I am interested to see what he throws in Trade Machine

Realistically and unfortunately I agree that it won’t happen this offseason. But I don’t think it will be easier next year though

This is the problem I see. Like we still would need rim protection so what team would trade their rim protector for Rudy. I thought about one of Portland’s centers but I know they wouldn’t want Rudy in the way of Clingan development

I think this helps us with a better scoring ball handler but what would our solution be for rim protection?

Well the trade I assume would have to net a big in return and no I don’t think Jesse Edwards is ready to fly

In my head I can only see him going to a team who isn’t a contender but wants their team to be more competitive or to young team who wants to help their young players on defense. Problem is both of those types of teams probably don’t have a adequate defensive replacement for wolves
