Who are some inexpensive Jalen Green replacements that can be had?

Coby flash really good games, but he has the same inconsistencies as Jalen. If Coby comes, you're still banking on some potential. That might be ok, since thread topic is a player who's not an A1 and at reasonable value.

Coby might get a big payday, but Chicago might overpay slightly since they're a bit stuck in mediocrity. As much as we nitpick Jalen here, Bulls fans could be happy getting a Jalen (new hope).

A scenary change could be good for both Coby and Jalen.

On trade specifics: Jalen's contract provides more certainty. With Coby, Stone would have to negotiate, Coby, a 2nd ,and whatever filler for Jalen. As interesting as a Coby, I just wouldn't sell Jalen too low.

 

Can be traded for any shooter who can regularly score 20+ points(with %33-35)

 

What's the use of a shooting guard with no space to operate? Until we get a offense with movement & spacing or Sengun develops a 3pt shot, players will just camp in the paint

 

I like the idea of moving up to 4 using Green, Whitmore, and 10...

Then use Josh Green / Edgecombe.

Both are 3 and D guys.

I think Amen will be the finisher when game on the line. Needs to improve free throws obviously but I would expect that to happen.

 

The only reason for Boston to deal Derek White is to save money. Jalen makes more and is the lesser player.

 

At this point, trading for Coby would be selling high. If we can find a team who still has some hope that Jalen will reach, at least, some of his untapped 'potential,' then the Rockets should not hesitate to act. Chicago seems like a good team for this. They took a chance on Giddey over picks and that has worked out quite well for them.

 

what about handsome ziyon? green + 10th + vanflit + chuck hayes should do it

 

Take out Chuck and I think it’s fair.

 

Yes and that roster is expensive, plus new owner and with Tatum's injury, Pritchard filling in well for them in backcourt depth, one never knows if Derrick might shake loose.

Derrick also had a year with Ime, so they're not strangers.

 

I think I would be okay if we replace Jalen with a "lateral move" kind of guy who fits better, i.e. better jump shooting, more consistency, but maybe less upside. That said, I think it also wouldn't be a bad idea to simply reinforce the backcourt while keeping Jalen. Make him compete for his minutes and starting spot. Anyway, I think my list from the other threads mostly fits here

Just cross off Trae, Bane, and Herro I guess?

 

It’s a long shot but I would call Philadelphia and see if Maxey can be had for Green, Picks and other players not named Thomson, Smith or Sengun.

 

I think Maxey's more of a Morey player than anybody we could offer him. Morey probably thinks Jalen's the worst player ever, he lives by the metrics.

 

He's already on the team, his name is Cam Whitmore. He just gets zero playing time and is never in rhythm because he's benched all the time.

I have no doubt if Cam got the leash Jalen had his first 3 years, Cam would've developed into a much better player by now.

It's too bad this franchise is picking Green over Cam even though Green never earned his starting spot unless you count getting drafted #2. Cam's gonna be on another team next year, I hope he goes to a tanking team and then can develop his game.

 

As disappointing as Green has been, I think we would still need to replace him with somebody that commands a lot of defensive attention like he did during the playoffs, not sure many of these names would get it done. Otherwise it brings more attention to the rest of our putrid offense, which would be bad.

 

Both Sexton and White are similar scorers and much better shooters with better % than Green across the board.

Either would be an upgrade.

 

I can't believe Morey continues to hold onto his job. They are totally screwed with Embid and PG (one of the worst signings of all time). Trading Maxey does nothing for them except build up draft picks. Morey is not a guy that cherishes draft picks. If they had a new GM you might be able to entice a Jalen and 3-4 picks for Maxey trade, but not with Morey. PG has 3 more years on his contract and that is the soonest the 76ers have a chance.

 

I think Jalen, Jock, Holiday might work for two rentals in John Collins and Sexton. We would definitely be better next year, but they could both walk the following year unless they got significant raises. We would still need to move FVV or let him walk to be better. FVV is the bigger problem than Jalen. Maybe Ainge would take FVV, filler, and #10 pick for Collins and Sexton because he could let FVV walk or use him at the deadline, but I doubt it. My real target is Collins and to get rid of FVV for another shooter/creator.

 

I agree... but only because Ime is an idiot who would rather lose than not try to get his favorite guys as many minutes as possible.

Ime might bench Jalen at some point, which would limit the damage he does to the team.... but I don't think he'd ever bench FVV or Brooks.
