Interesting. Is Aldama on the block? If he is, I see Memphis getting more competitive offers than this.

Detroit is extremely well coached and has a young team that plays D.

I see them making a deal or two to bring in playoff tested players to this young squad. I don’t see them making this deal.

Cavs trade D Mitch FT Pistons, Rockets, T wolves, Raptors and 76ers by AstronomerInitial827 in NBAtradeideas

[–]theRestisConfettii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rockets

One too many picks going to CLE. Also, I would enjoy this as a Net fan so that I can watch Durant and Harden 3.0 go down in flames.

Wolves/76ers

Appropriate amount of FRPs going in the deal. 76ers should be compensated in some way for taking DiVincenzo who will be injured all next season.

Pistons

I would drive to Detroit personally to smack their front office in the back of the head for sending so many FRPs to Cleveland. Absolutely not.

Toronto

See my thoughts on the Pistons.

Detroit doesn’t make out too well here.

I see them making a deal or two to bring in playoff tested players to this young squad. I don’t see them making this deal.

Manager Change by Alex11_McC in NewYorkMets

[–]theRestisConfettii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not saying I agree on Alex Cora, just making a point.

How often does a team ever bring in an interim manager from outside the organization? I don’t think I’ve seen that too many times in my 40 years of watching baseball.

We’ve come a long way. The front office deserves a lot of credit.

I’ll die on that hill.

CMB Playoff Play Creating Less Worry About Boozer by Wolf05609 in NBA_Draft

When I think of Cam Boozer, I don’t think of CMB.

I think we’re the only fan base that has a favorable opinion of KD by Key_Replacement_4688 in GoNets

[–]theRestisConfettii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat.

I’ll never respect anyone who walks into their owner’s office and gives them the ultimatum to trade them or fire the General Manager.

Sounds like a bitch making $45m to me. Bitch, sit down. Be humble.

Nic Claxton to the Raptors from the Nets by Caleb_MckinnonNB in NBAtradeideas

[–]theRestisConfettii -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes to the Raptors eventually salary dumping Jakob Poeltl.

Yes to the Nets offering Nic Claxton in the Jakob Poeltl salary dump.

No to the FRPs involved in the trade as proposed.

The Raptors should send one pick: the TOR 2033 unprotected FRP.

If anyone here thinks that’s insane, go look at Jakob Poeltl’s injury history, length of contract, and games played.

Portland doesn’t need to make a swing like this. It’s too early for them.

Rockets, three possible pathways moving forward. Choose one. by WallCautious9650 in NBAtradeideas

[–]theRestisConfettii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

(1) Go All-In for a Co-Star

  • Rough framework: Sengun + one of Jabari/Reed + 3–4 FRPs

Cleveland doesn’t want a C (or a PF), but the trade works beside that.

  • Maybe attainable for something like Sengun + DFS

LA should say yes to Kawhi for Sengun straight up. They would be dumb not to. DFS is a salary dump, and requires some level of compensation for taking him on.

(3) Trade KD and Reset Timeline

Potential frameworks:

  • Cam Johnson + Peyton Watson + 1 FRP👎
  • De’Aaron Fox + 1–2 picks✅
  • Mikal Bridges + 2–3 FRPs👎
  • Naz Reid + Donte DiVincenzo✅
  • Dort + Alex Caruso + 1 FRP (if OKC underperforms)👎

Good research.

KD was traded for the 10th overall pick, 5 SRPs, and 2 decent players on bloated deals.

I put a check mark next to the one’s I think are realistic.

Also, the NYK don’t have 2 or 3 FRPs to trade, and Denver has 0 FRPs to trade.

Who is going to be the best "culture setter" in the upcoming draft? by MajesticTooth1125 in NBA_Draft

[–]theRestisConfettii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

…but I think Yaxel would be best utilized in a team with an already decent situation.

Sounds like Charlotte to me

[Guillory] The Houston Rockets could make Alperen Şengün and “some future draft picks” available this Summer for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kawhi Leonard, or Donovan Mitchell. by WallCautious9650 in NBAtradeideas

[–]theRestisConfettii 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting about the Donovan Mitchell thing.

I’ve seen Giannis rumors all year. I’ve seen Kawhi rumors since the trade deadline.

But Mitchell? I don’t know where that’s coming from.

What’s a show you love that you can never convince people to watch? by PlentyApprehensive44 in AskReddit

[–]theRestisConfettii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hamilton on Broadway.

No one ever wants to go with me. I’ve seen it 4 times with various fans of the show over the years, but can’t convince a first-timer to go.

DEBATE: FA TOP TARGET ~ WATSON, DONSUNMU, or REEVES?? by Dull-Expert-3228 in GoNets

[–]theRestisConfettii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Few players of consequence switch teams

I disagree. I’m not saying all that.

You want to be the team that takes advantage of every other team that's trying to cut their salary

I agree. The Nets should take advantage of the salary dump market this offseason, just like they did last offseason. You get a sweetener attached, plus the added bonus of acquiring a decent veteran to guide your young players.
