CWood21 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Just now, Raves said: @Bianconero Love isn't a dump, he's an all-star and his contract is perfectly fine. TT is a little overpaid but he actually does bring value to a team and isn't a contract you would dump as it would be hard enough to find someone that can give you what TT does with what money the Cavs would have. Some team might be willing to take him on as part of salary matching as they make a post season run that needs someone that can defend multiple positions and rebound at an elite level. Love's contract isn't "perfectly fine". That's being generous. He's due another $49.7M over the next two years, and he's not a top 2 option on a championship team. At best, it's a push. As for Tristan Thompson, he's a bit more than a little overpaid. It's a bad contract. Maybe not toxic, but it's definitely a bad contract. They're going to have to attach assets to move him.

YogiBiz Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 If it's true the Grizzlies want to compete would they take this trade: SG Tim Hardaway JR SF Lance Thomas PG Emmanuel Mudiay Pick #9 2020 Top 12 Protected (2021 Top 7 Protected Draft Pick) (Top 3 in 2022) (If not conveyed by 2023, turns into 2 Second Rounders) for SF Chandler Parsons Pick #4 Would give them the chance to still grab Mikal Bridges or whatever guy they have their eye on by staying in the top 10, get a back up PG, and two wings that can shoot the 3. Add in the other pick(s) and it looks sweet enough to entice them to me. For the Knicks, it would give them a higher chance to grab a star caliber player at the top of the draft. IMO the only way they should do this trade is if Luka Doncic is sitting at #4. Jaren Jackson Jr. wouldn't be bad either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's tremendously talented, but he's an inefficient scoring guard whose got one more year on his rookie contract and has dealt with knee injuries the past two years. He's probably got more value to the Nets than he does the rest of the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know how the Nets view him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the 29th highest paid player in the league last year, and is set to be the 27th highest paid next season, with several guys still to get contracts. I think that's perfectly fair market value for Love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t want to be put into a situation like Blake Griffin is in with the Pistons after signing his long term deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he is not a top 10, 15, or even 25 player in the league but the guy has played in the finals 4 years in a row and been a big part of that. He may not be a top 2 option, but as far as 3rd options, he is well above average. With the contracts that have been dished out across the league I am not sure how you can look at his as a bad contract... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love that, but I don't think Mil would do that straight up. Maybe take back Delly's contract, send Jr Smith who only has 3.8m guaranteed after 2019. I still think they would want to swap picks, or maybe even shed Snell's contract to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
