The trade machine is going wild for me this year even with the Aprons. 

Like this works: https://www.espn.com/nba/trademachine?tradeId=27fsyhq5

Celtics Get: Steph Curry, D. Melton both from GSW

Lakers Get: KAT & Schelerman

Knicks Get: LeBron and Boucher

Warriors Get: Tatum & Jake LaRavia

Not saying I would do that but like it kind of makes sense and it would be so fun

Whatever you're on I want some of it.

Echoing others, no way am I giving up the best player in this trade for an almost over the hill Curry and Melton

Another guard who I like and I think ill have in the 1st round.

PJ Haggerty, he is a 21yr old combo guard from Kansas State.
https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/5106275/pj-haggerty not a traditional PG but to average 20+ppg for 3 seasons in a row at three different schools is impressive. Reminds me a little of Caleb Love in that he is a really good college player who just doesn't seem to carry draft hype. Not a stretch to picture him as a 6th man type scoring guard.

how does torpedoing the C's make sense or be some sort of fun? 

C's give up the best player in all of this and a prospect for Curry who plays a position we're already set at and doesn't fill any of the holes we have AND is at the end of his career.

Maybe he started drinking early this morning?

If Brad traded for him, don't expect Joe to play him much this year.  Garza helps the team more this season.

If I am looking at this correctly (which is often not the case), the trade could be only a pick from BOS and BOS takes Missi back with a TPE.  Is that correct?  Is that what people are thinking?  Or BOS could send back a player such as Minott who has a team option after this season.

I don't recall seeing Missi play.  Based on stats and measurements, seems a lot like Queta (not necessarily a bad thing).  Low FT%

Missi can dribble and drive a bit from the top of the key as well, but otherwise, he is like Queta was two years ago. Raw with potential. He's also a bit thinner than Queta.

I think Minott probably needs to go. His body language has not been great.

That?s crazy. I never thought he would just outright be available. He?s exactly what we?re looking for. Cheap, controlled, won?t be mad playing behind Queta, but can also do Queta like things.

It honestly makes too much sense and even our first this year is going to be pretty low. Trade off Tillman and Boucher in the process to clear a contract

Looking at this class im really impressed by the PGs, this is only an on the surface look but Kingston Flemings, Mikel Brown Jr, Labaron Philon, Christian Anderson, Darius Acuff, Meleek Thomas, Brayden Burries and Sergio de Larrea all look like 1st round picks. Sergio de Larrea maybe more of a wing in the NBA but for now ill consider him a pg because thats what he is listed as.



Christian Anderson, particularly stands out to me as a guy projected on Tankathon as a second round pick but who clearly looks more towards a lottery pick. He cam into college with the small guard tag given that he measured 5'11.5" 155lbs with a 6'4.5" wingspan at the 2024 basketball with out borders. He is currently listed at 6'3 and clearly looks like he has grown (Dad was a pro in Germany and is 6'6). His combine will be interesting but im assuming he is around his listed 6'3 in shoes with around a 6'6 wingspan. Skill wise he is a great shooter, great passer, and at this point in the season he is finishing at an above 65% at the rim.
sounds like a PP-type player --> that a fair comp?

One thing that I think is often over looked about PP is how big he actually is. He weighed in at 206lbs at the combine. 6'0.5" 206lbs is not a big guy buy nba standards but the strength/weight that he carries alows him to hold up better than some taller but lighter guards. This is also true for Brunson, Lowrey, and Vanvleet.

In terms of playing style and role I think Anderson could fill a similar nich.
