Wild Idea, Trade Brown and white

[rondohondo]

I don't see either of these players being in the long term plans for the C's. White is 32 and hitting the back side of his career.

Jaylen wants to be the man, but is not as well suited to be the man for the c's because Tatum has always been the better player.

So say you can move D white for a guy like Aaron Gordon(maybe someone less injury prone)

Then you move Brown for either sengun and wing or Giannis


Your core becomes

Pp
Hugo
Jabari smith
Tatum
Sengun

Plus whatever you get for white. (Aaron Gordon level player)

With a lot more cap flexibility

Or

Pp
Hugo
Scheierman
Tatum
Giannis
Queta


I think in a Houston trade you might have to include Queta to get back Parker or Reed.

Build it around Tatum, you'll never get more value in a trade for Brown than now. White is reaching the backside .

[slamtheking]

bad trades based on 2 false premises you're projecting onto White and Brown.

you really seem to be cranking out lots of new threads trying to give away C's players.

Well, I would say he's at least using trade ideas for players that are reportedly likely to be traded this offseason. But they aren't exactly original ideas.

They aren't necessarily horrible trades, but they don't make sense together. If you are getting Sengun and Smith Jr, then you're not going to trade for Gordon, as Tatum is already a valuable PF. So that frontcourt would be too loaded. And I really wouldn't be all that happy trading White for Gordon.
