    No one is saying this is a sustainable process. You also can't make trades if you don't have anything good to trade.

    Whenever Morey has had tradeable assets he's turned it into Harden and Paul.

    not convinced that DJ would want to come here to be a backup once Capela gets back, but we’ll see

    Capela and 2 future firsts for AD is better than any other offer except for Tatum if they could get him. It would turn us into favorites for the title this year. Although okafor is putting up crazy numbers, this allows them to use okafor or capela as a trade chip.

    If we get DJ we could try and get someone like Tatum.

    I would try that and if not go for brad beal.

    Clint chriss and fillers with a 1st round pick for beal would be amazing.

    Sell wizards of clint and wall playing pick and roll all day. They’d prob be pretty decent in the east.

    I love Clint but he’s whats going to get us another star if we can get one.

    Jordan/fareid can man the center spot.

    I think Jordan can be resigned for 10-12m a year if it’s multi year deal. I don’t know Morey would create space but in sure he could figure it out.

    If we pack Capela and fillers for Davis:

    C: DJ
    PF: Davis
    SF: Tucker
    SG: Harden
    PG: Paul

    Killer.

    If we can get Jordan and somehow turn Clint, fillers, and first round picks for Beal I think I would lose my sh**. That lineup would be ridiculous.

    I have seen a lot of people bringing up Beal, can he defend SF or is the idea to move Harden to SF?

    I don’t think so. You can always use a high motor player on the floor.

    This might show my ignorance, but isn't Beal just a better version of Eric Gordon?

    Is he really worth Clint, fillers AND picks?

    Lmao within the first hours of this rumor we already have people thinking about how to trade capela .

    Do the Stephen A trade

    Clint and 4 firsts for AD .

    Chris
    James
    Gordon
    AD
    Jordan

    Or start pj over Jordan and have a lob city bench unit .

    As for my opinion. Get farried working on his shot if he wants to play . We have room at backup 4 if he can hit a corner 3

    Personal opinion, i really like Beal and yes he's a better version of Gordon, definitely better btw. Just not sure he's worth Capela and multiple picks, especially considering the Wizards are without centers unless you consider Dwight a long term solution for them...Gordon and multiple picks however, that's definitely worth it.

    Pretty sure both Jordon and Capela are massively improved free throw shooters this year.

    What is Wright’s record with these kind of predictions?

    Haha. Honestly. We went from not being able to get AD to only having to give up Clint and picks. And no one even considers the fact that we wouldn’t have much to pay Deandre next year.

    Oh man. This forum is going to be so annoying if we strike out at the deadline.
