NBA Draft Trade/Pick Rumors

[colincb]

Among the teams the Nuggets have talked with that have warmed to a trade for Faried, a source said, is Minnesota. New coach Tom Thibodeau has long been a fan of his. Thibodeau was part of the Team USA staff when Faried competed in the World Cup in 2014, and has had an affinity toward him since, and the ex-Bulls coach would like to acquire a big man who can provide interior toughness to pair with Rookie of the Year center Karl-Anthony Towns.

interesting, you think a trade between the two would probably involve Pekovic to the Nuggets? possibly a late first rounder if they own one or conditional first for Faried ?

Lavine/Wiggins/Faried/KAT sounds like a good core going forward

Not interested in Jabari Parker. Very bad on D, doesn't shoot 3's, doesn't pass. Not a good rebounder. Negative BPM and VORP. Nowhere even remotely close to being worth the #3 pick.

That seems like it would be a good trade for Minni, but I don't know that Denver would want a C like that unless Nurkic gets moved.  It would probably need a third team

Faried on the Wolves would be a great fit, though

To be clear: No indication that ATL will blow it up after Teague trade. Just saying they could be candidate to do so with aging core/FAs.

Celtics could offer package including No. 3 for Millsap/Korver/etc. Both on expiring deals but that makes BOS enticing for FAs immediately.


Brian Robb ‏@CelticsHub 20m20 minutes ago Watertown, MA

I've said this before, but will repeat. If Atlanta is looking to hit the reset button, wouldn't sleep on C's going after a guy like Millsap.

Sign me up.

Millsap is already 31 - I REALLY like him as a player, but would have been much happier if this were like four years ago. I would trade for him, but not with the #3.

Korver, at 35, doesn't seem like the greatest fit either.

If Philly likes Schroeder, which they should since I think he's probably a similar prospect to Dunn (though I'm not high on Dunn at all, especially with his injuries), then a three-way deal with those teams could happen.

Boston - Milsap, Noel

Atlanta - Amir, JJ, 3, and 16

Philly - Schroeder, Young OR Rozier

A Noel for Schroeder, Young/Rozier deal seems like fair value for Noel, who will be getting paid this coming summer. I'm just not sure how they view Schroeder and if Atlanta would be willing to give him up for the 3.

If so, who in the hell will the Bulls even have on the roster with Butler next year? Gasol is gone for sure, and many assume that Noah will be, too.

Butler could demand a trade if that happens and they don't get much better. Why would he want to play on such a team?

[colincb]

Bulls need Dunn? Is there a deal that makes any sense?

Jonathan Givony ‏@DraftExpress 6m Bulls has been heavily targeting point guards in the draft for months. Now we know why. Wanted Kris Dunn but couldn't get him. Wade Baldwin?

Back to Hawks: Sources say they'll now try to trade their two first-rounders (one from the Teague deal) to make re-signing Al Horford easier

[TwinTower14]

Anyone buying Felger's logic that the C's and the 76'ers are haggling over Embiid?
