Yeah, I meant players of equal value but not necessarily same position. So no one on this team is going to return Davis or Durant. But if you want to trade kyrie for a center of equal value, then sure.
The Morris green trade is exactly the kind of thing I’m thinking about, and I think a good idea.
As for brown, he’s just too erratic IMO. And yes he’s a good defender but we can trade him for another good defender or a sharpshooter. I think those kind of players would fit the team better and like I said, I have little concern that we’d be trading away a future star.
Looks like we disagree on Brown's value.
There's not a lot of players that can replace Brown's defensive ability and versatility, shooting, open court ability, and driving (as well as the potential playmaking we've seen in the preseason).
He's already surpassed Carroll, Prince, Richardson, Barnes, Warren, Barton, Hood, KCP, Crabbe, Bazemore, and Lee as a wing player.
His current value is roughly Tobias Harris, Porter Jr., Covington, or Gary Harris. I like Brown's versatility on defense better than those guys.
I do think he has a higher upside than anyone I listed also.
