    Nothing, but they're waiting for a dumb team to give them a top 10 pick...i hope it doesn't happen but you never know...

    apparently Portland offered up Crabbe and the 15th and 20th pick and Indy said that it doesn't move the needle for them

    Crabbe (a 20M bench guy) is negative value at this point, that's a pretty bad offer imo.

    Gordon + Dekker + 1st would be way better than that.

    Obviously Gordon is worth more than Crabbe, but could Dekker get even the 20th pick in this draft? I'm not confident about that.

    Rockets can't trade a pick at the moment though, right?

    I feel like we are just waiting for Beverley to fetch us a mid-1st the George Trade to break.

    Just waiting for the Bulls to let go of the 16th for Bev.

    I think Gordon is worth way more than Crabbe all things considered, on Dekker i don't know...but i think his value should be similar to a 20th pick

    The Bulls need to decide wtf they want to do, cause if they trade Butler they won't have interest in Beverley, if they keep him though...they must also decide what to do with Rondo, his contract becomes fully guaranteed if they don't cut him this month. If they cut him before the 1st of July it's only 3M guarateed.

    How high of a 1st do u think Beverley could get?

    The Lakers offer is straight boo boo if it's still Clarkson/Randle + the 27th and 28th picks.

    The Blazers offer isn't great.

    Cleveland is out.

    There's still San Antonio with LMA.

    The Clippers are out.

    Am I missing anyone?

    I think Beverley is worth 12-17

    so let's split the difference and say he gets us like the 14th pick

    What do u rate a deal of Ego, Sam, and the 14th pick out of 10 for Indy? What about Ego, Sam, the 14th pick, and our 2018 1st? What would that rate out of 10 for them?

    I was reading somewhere Minnie is also looking at George if they cannot trade for Butler.

    As for Pat i don't really know, i'd say his value might be worth a 10/15 for the right team, but can we find it as today?

    10. Sacramento
    11. Charlotte
    12. Detroit
    13. Denver
    14. Miami
    15. Portland

    Eh...Sacramento wanted him two years ago and offered him more money than us, not sure they still want him though, and not sure they would trade a 10th pick for him...

    Other teams here i don't know...they're all pretty covered at the spot, maybe Denver...

    We also know Detroit want to get rid of Jackson, but i think they're looking at a ball handler more, to play with Drummond, not sure Pat fits that...assuming this actually what they're looking for.


    EDIT: i know i already said this yesterday but...the Knicks were after both Gordon and Beverley last summer and two years ago, pretty sure Phil would love to get them (they're without a pg)...but for the 8th pick? Mmmh...

    maybe Charlotte, they've been linked to Donavan Mitchell and Frank Ntilikina if either 1 is available at 11...those are both defensive minded guards

    Charlotte is trying to win now, and Bev could run with Kemba in the backcourt

    Kemba
    Bev
    Batum
    MKG
    Dwight

    that might appeal to Charlotte

    Oh ok, didn't know that about Charlotte, i guess that's why Clutch mentioned Charlotte in the last tweet than.

    Btw Codman just dropped this in the "Jazz interested in Beverley" thread:

    Seems like the Bulls are a difficult fo to deal with...but that deal with OKC...ugh, it was that bad, i would love to see Morey screw them....even though i'm kinda feel bad saying this since Pat is involved, really love the guy and would suck so much to lose him...

    LMA + 29 to Sacramento
    10 + Green + future SAS 1st to Indiana
    George to San Antonio

    Not sure any of those teams say yes, but there's a reasonable outline.

    I hope they don't do that, imo they would be super dumb cause LMA would absolutely bolt them next summer...also, not sure Green has any value for Indiana...seems like they're talking about him with Cleveland btw.
