And I'm hearing teams have indeed begun to inquire about availability of Mason Plumlee based on belief Nets willing to move young big man

Wonder what it would take to get him? Depending on the price, I would think we would have interest.

I bet Brooklyn does it for just one of their picks back. Not sure we do it. We could maybe do something like KO and Turner and 27. I think I would do that.

I think he's more of a Plan C type option if everything else falls through lol But they probably want to use Plumlee as an asset to move one of their less desirable contracts or to gain a better pick this year. We could send them 28 for him  ;)

If he's available, it's because he's not very good.

Umm… is your point just about Plumlee, or is that a generalization on all players being available?

Plumlee was terrible down the stretch. If you're interested in him, don't expect to be getting anyone who's better than Tyler Zeller, i.e. a second-unit big.

Exactly.

He's a bench big on a good team. Not much interest from me.

Kyle Lowry, Dwayne Wade, 13th pick in even numbered rounds, 18th pick in odd numbered rounds.

It's often true about players that are available, but this is mostly about Plumlee.

He's a pure center in a power forward's body, has absolutely no range, and is a terrible free throw shooter, at a time when shooting all over the floor is valued higher than it ever has been.

I would like a Tyler Zeller for Mason Plumlee swap.

A downgrade on offense but more defense and rebounding + physicality and athleticism.

His defense isn't as good as you think. That's partly why he fell out of the rotation.
