If Minnesota is looking at someone at 14, I think Yabu and 14 is extremely reasonable for a very good, bench role player like Saric. Plug him right into Morris' slot and save some money. As for him becoming a RFA, the year after, so what? We still control where he will be that following year.

I think this would be a good use of the 14th pick as I have no faith in landing anyone who will be as good as Saric in the teens or the twenties of this draft.

Good idea.
Completely agree with your post

I don’t. We need to focus on bolstering our starting lineup before anything. Why y’all worried about a “good bench player” when we don’t even have a solid starting lineup yet? Seems ass backwards to me.

So basically a trash player and two trash picks for a talented rotation player? 

Yeah... sign me up, dawg.

More realistically... #14 + #20 + Yabu... seems more reasonable.
It's almost as if picks in the teens can lead to talented rotation players, isn't it?

Actually, this draft is much deeper than people may realize. I don't think it's as top-heavy as most drafts. If you look at some mock drafts, there's some pretty good talent projected from #10 all the way through I'd say #25 even. Maybe not franchise players, but guys who can be contributors in their rookie years.

Let’s hope that’s the case. I still don’t trust danny with the picks he has.

Only primary trade targets I want are;

Karl-Anthony Towns
Myles Turner
Mo Bamba
Domantas Sabonis

That’s it

i like your list.  i said yabs, 20, and 22 for sabonis on another thread,

Wish we could trade Yabs for Siakam, after all he was drafted ahead of him... But now we could offer Yabs, 14 and 20 and the the Raptors will say no...
This is how a player development is so vital in improving a franchise.. Our player development has been horrendous.

We could offer Jaylen Brown, 14, and 20 and Toronto would still say no. This just further strengthens your point, though.

I'd be mad at Danny for that one.  Siakam's game is a bit ahead of Brown's maybe, but Brown has a higher or equal ceiling to Siakam I think.  Brown can really score in bunches when he's one of the focal points of the offense.  And excellent defense.

Who said the team wouldn't be also looking at other areas to add to the team? Not sure that anyone discussed that at all. This is just one trade to increase the talent on the team. No one is saying it will be the only one. I trust Ainge is able to multi-task and be able to try to upgrade the team in several ways all at the same time, being able to do this trade and others that could address your concerns.

Wouldn't mind giving up #14 + Yabusele for him.

I personally would be looking more at someone like Sabonis, but I think it's unlikely he'll truly be available.

Karl Anthony Towns is now the dream target after AD, but he won't be available until probably next summer at the earliest.

He hardly gets playing time for crappy Minnesota. I like his board work but he is a low 30’s 3 point shooter.

Yup...Towns could now be Ainge's next target. And I suppose if the TWolves have another losing season (which they probably will), he might request a trade next summer.

It's just so hard now to get behind targeting one certain player after we got burnt with this AD fiasco.

It wouldn't kill Indiana to move one of Sabonis or Turner for wing help. I don't know how psyched people would be if we dealt Brown, but that's about where the offer would begin.

It's a tricky one for sure. Turner is locked up for considerably longer at $18m a year until 2023, and he's a better defender and shooter. However, Sabonis is probably due some money in 2021, is the better rebounder and passer, and is a more aggressive scorer.

Sabonis is also a month younger and has less of an injury history. Personally I'd prefer Sabonis here. His season he put up in Indy was awesome. He'd also be easier to trade for salary-wise.

Moving Brown would be a gut-punch though.

Yeah, matching Turner's salary would be tough, but he comes in at a pretty good price. JB will likely make considerably more than that starting next year.

Turner is still only 23 and he seems like he could really grow into a perennial all-star type. Sabonis has that kind of game that everybody loves, but I am not sure about his ceiling and his inability to stretch the floor is somewhat of a concern for me. He is really solid, though - don't get me wrong.

So I guess if I am moving Brown and both were up for grabs, I would have to go with Turner.

I swear y’all are weird. Why the heck would you move brown? You have a 1st team all defender and 3 1st round picks this year. Like cmon y’all.

I don't think we're saying we would, it's just food for thought really. Plus, good wings are a lot easier to come across than good bigs.

I think I'd rather keep Brown this year and see how our young wing duo goes, but who knows what Danny has planned

Instead of trading for Saric, which will be very costly. Why not sign a center with the MLE and sign Theis again. Then give Theis and Horford minutes at the 4 spot.

We'll have better interior defense and won't have to give up any players or picks.

I actually think Theis is as good as Saric. He might be even better if he didn't have to play center.
