Too good of a player for a reasonable package we can send out, but yeah, I'd love him too. Since we're talking about Jazz players, I'd really give Malik Beasley a look-see.

I still would be very interested in Bamba too. Has upside and I’d like to see him play for an org that actually knows how to develop talent. The magic have squandered basically every kid they’ve drafted outside of Wagner for years now.

Not Celtics related, but Kyrie Irving is really the worst.

It’s going to be eye opening for him when he has to choose between not playing or taking a small one year deal

But I think there are lots of teams who will pay him max money for 1 year. How many teams can pull it off, cap wise? It'll have to be S&T. For the media, the good news is that he'll remain a story to write about every offseason and deadline.

The magic have squandered basically every kid they’ve drafted outside of Wagner for years now. I think we had Bamba rights for like 2 weeks then release him. I could be wrong on this but if we did dumb move on Stevens.

Shams reports the Jazz are looking for a first for each of them. I'd offer Pritchard first, yet I'd likely do a first for him. If he keeps improving his shot he could be Horfords long-term replacement. Really want him, Pritchard and a first is a darn good offer.

Seen reports Celtics won't trade Gallinari, yet it sounded more opinion based than actual fact. Yet if true, that limits you.

For accuracy sake, they trade him away. But the return (it was Bol Bol, PJ Dozier and a protected '28 2nd rd pick for a HIGHLY protected 23 2nd rounder) equates to a release.

We SHOULD be close but he still has allies within the NBA elite and they make many of the decisions. And for 1 year, owners will accommodate their current stars wishes.

Russ for Kyrie is the lock of the century

And for 1 year, owners will accommodate their current stars wishes. A sign and trade hard caps you; I’m not so sure who would be in position to do that. Also, the Nets would need to get a pretty big nice to make that worth their while. Ultimately, it’s the NBA teams are incredibly dumb so anything could happen.

Who knows, maybe Danny likes PP PP seems to want playing time Prichard is more than a year older than Vanderbilt (hadn't realized how young JV still is!). Would be a great get but don't see how it works without a 1st. Grant and PP for Vanderbilt and a filler? Danny gets first pass on a Grant extension or can do a sign and trade. Too much? I'm not even sure what we can sign Vanderbilt for next season; he's a steal at $4.5m and I don't know if we'd have Bird Rights or would be stuck with one of those crappy Salary+125% offers or something.

Note about Bol Bol. He’s seemed good when he was starting and the Magic were injured and losing. He’s been a bench player since they got healthy and started winning and he’s been bad off the bench. Basically, we probably aren’t missing anything as he wouldn’t have much playing time here to develop new look effective. Orlando should probably trade him now to a bad team who can just let him play. At least that’s what Bol Bol could use.

One thing about Kyries next contract would be if the Lakers were able to swing a deal for him this season. Then with LeBron there they’d have to give him a max long term deal using his bird rights. And quite frankly it’s worth that risk for them and their situation. I hope the Nets make him leave as a FA.

He's signed for next year, $4.7 million, last year of 3 year 13 million contract. So you'd have full bird rights after that.

Idk how willing to move Grant they’ll be. Seems to be a big part of the locker room and has had some big performances I’m not against it myself
