Now that the JailBlazers have traded for Ja, the PG room is full. I’d throw something of value at them to pry Jrue? Ime has history and probably fits the mold. Plus he wins.
Not sure who you would have to give up. They will not take another PG so I would keep FVV out of trades.
They might trade him for expirings (ehem Fred) plus a pick or so now? I'd favor him over other vet options.
Would you offer Sheppard or Jabari and a pick swap for Scoot Henderson? I would think about it. Scoot has looked interested in basketball lately… I could see a Chauncey Billups type scenario where he breaks out- at times he was very good in the playoffs this year
He is very talented and at times flashed an improved game and looked primed for a break out. It’s a risk but the upside is an all star point guard to run with Amen and possibly Sheppard.
I haven't watched him enough to have an opinion (because who the hell watches Portland?), but Reed+Swap sounds about fair. Add a bit more if needed. I hope he can shoot, because someone other than Reed & KD needs to
Jabari Smith Jr is 23 with a career high of 7 made 3’s in a game. We just traded Jalen Green who made 8 3’s in his 3rd NBA game for a 37 year old. Yes, Jabari is slow and good at 2 things, Jrue is fast and good at everything. He’s better at guarding power forwards and shooting open 3 pointers.
