How can Iggy ended up in Warriors??
Iguodala to Hawks for Crabbe(exp) or Turner(exp)
Then Hawks buyout Iggy's contract
Then Warriors can sign him again..
1.) 03 Oct 2019 14:58:55
Is ATL giving Memphis the draft pick that Memphis wants for trading away Iggy? I don't think so, but that is just me.
18 Sep 2019 09:23:44
DeRozan to Heat with Belinelli
Winslow, Olynyk and 1st pick to Spurs
DeRozan pairing with Butler plus a sharphooter Belinelli on the bench.
Spurs shed 7million on the trade, plus getting a 1st pick, Winslow is a more SF player than DeRozan and Aldridge will play PF with Olynyk or Poeltl playing center

How does Miami take on $7 mil in salary when they only $1.3 mil below the HARD apron cap?
2.) 18 Sep 2019 13:48:04
^trade exemption from Ryan Anderson trade.
3.) 18 Sep 2019 21:18:08
First, can't add trade exemptions to other players in a deal. You can only accept a player for that exemption.
Also, trade exemptions do not allow teams to exceed a HARD salary cap that was put into place when Miami accepted Butler in a S&T.

Twolves:
Chris Paul and M. Muscala
Okc:
Serge Ibaka and G. Dieng plus 1st picks from Toronto and Minnesota (lottery protected)
Raptors:
Andrew Wiggins and N. Noel
Minny: Paul-Okogie-Culver-Covington-Towns 6thman:Teague
Toronto: Lowry-Powell-Wiggins-Siakam-Gasol 6thman: VanVleet
OKC: SGA-Fegurson-Gallinari-Ibaka-Adams 6thman: Schroeder
1.) 18 Sep 2019 11:09:35
Ibaka+first>Wiggins.
2.) 18 Sep 2019 12:49:01
Also, the Ibaka+first can probably get you Derozen back in Toronto.
3.) 18 Sep 2019 13:48:59
There is no way they are trading for DeRozan back though. All the reasons that they traded him in the first place still apply. (Choking in the playoffs) besides, that'd be an even bigger slap in the face than trading him in the first place.
4.) 18 Sep 2019 20:14:13
I disagree with everything you said Chuigi. The reason they traded him was to get a top 10 player in the league. If they could get him back for cheap (Ibaka and a first) and stay competitive in the east, they'd do it.
And taking him back to a place he loved isn't a slap in the face. I guess if they said to him "well, we lost Leonard, so you're better than nothing" it would be. But if handled right, it would be a pretty easy transition.
5.) 18 Sep 2019 23:06:28
Totally fair. I agree he could understand, maybe even be cool with it. I just think there is a good chance there are still some hard feelings between him and the organization. Obviously this is just my opinion and I you understand that it is probably a little biased.
6.) 19 Sep 2019 02:37:21
Take out the 1st from TOR and i think it could work. Noel and Wiggins for just ibaka is more fair than Ibaka and a 1st. Any situation OKC can get a 1st while moving Paul would be a win and they bring back Ibaka for a homecoming. The only reason i don't say take out the 1st from minny too is because they get out of Wiggins, and also Dieng if it was just Wiggins they don't include a 1st.
7.) 19 Sep 2019 02:54:03
Plus, throw in that the man (Lebron) that kept beating Derozen is no longer in the East helps in bringing Derozen back to Toronto.
8.) 19 Sep 2019 06:43:58
After the damage Jimmy Butler’s meltdown did to KAT, I think that there is no chance they would trade for Chris Paul. They want KAT to be the alpha player. After the way Paul demanded the ball from even James freakin’ Harden, I don’t think they’d risk alienating Towns by putting CP3 anywhere near the Wolves.

Celtics and Grizzlies trade:
Hayward and 1st rd pick(less favorable) for Iguodala, Crowder and Howard
Iggy will help Tatum and Brown to develop, Crowder plays well with the Celtics and Dwight is given a chance to redeem his career..
Hayward gets opporunity to play an allstar level in Memphis, which he cannot do in Boston because of Walker and Tatum..
S:Walker-Brown-Tatum-Crowder-Kanter
B: Smart-Langford-Iguodala-Williams-Williams-Theis-Howard
S: Morant-Jackson-Hayward-Jackson-Valanciunas
B: Jones-Allen-Brooks-Hill-Anderson-Clarke-Plumlee
1.) 09 Aug 2019 18:57:57
Iguodala turns 36 in January and doesn't have much left. Howard is a clown who has had several chances to redeem his career, and failed in all of them. Too many issues. Crowder would gum up the bottom of the rotation and hurt the development of several rookies.
Boston would not give Hayward even up for those three guys, let alone toss in a first. Also, with the Celtics owning Memphis's No. 1 next June, why would they do anything that might improve the Grizzlies?
2.) 09 Aug 2019 22:54:24
Yeah would like to see how Hayward plays this year no excuses he has to perform . Celtics will be a top 3 eastern conference team this year can’t wait for the game against nets.
3.) 10 Aug 2019 00:13:51
Oh my supercollider great white hype still dreaming of the next Larry bigbird.
4.) 10 Aug 2019 04:26:54
I think this is one of the best Hayward deals I've seen. I think Boston first has to decide what they want. If they want to win now they need veterans like Iguodala and Crowder. The rookies won't help in the PO this year, maybe never. As I think Hayward won't get back to his old level this gives Boston a chance if Philly and the Bucks get problems or have injuries. Boston also creates cap space for the next summer.
5.) 10 Aug 2019 07:58:15
After looking at it as a Boston fan, I believe the Grizzlies won't do that. For Iggy and Crowder they will get at least one second rounder for each of them. But they won't like to take on 34 million in 2020 unless it's a player they like. Maybe they might even get a first from teams like Portland if they send both.
For example Whiteside and a first for Iggy and Crowder when Nurkic is healthy. That gives the Grizzlies cap space and even without a first rounder they might prefer this.
Also the Nets don't have depth at the wing until Durant is healthy.
6.) 10 Aug 2019 12:20:40
others valued Hayward and others are going for Iggy and Crowder.
thats why i had to put a 1st rnd pick, could be 27-30th pick, to compensate on Haywards contract.
since Grizzlies "could" be waiving Iggy and Dwight, why not trade them and get a draft pick.
Celtics will not have a problem IF those 3 players don't fit, they could easily be waive or trade them. they are one year contracts and they will be useful in trade deadline.
Hayward could also hinders Brown and Tatum potential and vice versa for Hayward. Iggy is a veteran and he will not outshine those two like what he did in Golden State.
7.) 10 Aug 2019 12:22:32
Memphis could be lucky if Hayward plays like an Allstar in Utah.
16 Jul 2019 13:21:45
Chris Paul and Steven Adams for John Wall and Ian Mahinmi plus 2 1st rd picks..
1.) 16 Jul 2019 14:12:13
Washington does better to "wait and see" about John Wall.
I only consider this if Beal signs extension.
2.) 16 Jul 2019 17:25:45
Even if Beal extended, is Paul/ Beal/ Adams more than a fringe playoff team? I could see that team miss the playoffs behind Orlando, Miami, Detroit, Brooklyn (and the obvious Bucks, 76ers, Celtics, Pacers) .
Keeping Beal seems like a mistake for Washington in any scenario I can imagine.
3.) 16 Jul 2019 18:09:32
They become last years OKC team, but in the East.
4.) 16 Jul 2019 19:37:52
I guess you could argue that Washington would have some solid assets to go out and another good guy or two though? I probably wouldn’t, but with Beal in tow, I don’t think it’s horrible. Plus wall looks like straight dead money.

Here are the 10 finalist in Espn top 100 players..
LeBron James
Anthony Davis
Kawhi Leonard
Paul George
Giannis Antetokounmpo
James Harden
Stephen Curry
Damian Lillard
Joel Embiid
Nikola Jokic
And kindly rank these players..
1.) 25 Sep 2019 17:12:24
Giannis
Leonard
Curry
James
Harden
Lillard
Jokic
Davis
George
Embiid
Leonard, Curry, James was probably the hardest trio for me. I could probably make an argument for them to be in any order. Lebron ended up at the bottom because of his age.
4-10 could probably also go in just about any order, but that's my opinion.
2.) 25 Sep 2019 18:02:29
Not taking health into acount, so assumimg they are all healthy.
Leonard
Giannis
Davis
James
George
Curry
Harden
Jokic
Embid
Lillard
I agree with Bmiller almost all of them are close and can go anywhere. They are all good at offense so to seperate them defense plays a big role. that's the reason Harden and Curry aren't higher. They can play decent defense but they can't play lock down defense like the ones in front of them. i'm sure some will disagree but there is my list and i am open for changes the only ones i'm certain on are top 2. you could easily change my mind that's a tough list to rank.
3.) 25 Sep 2019 19:22:52
Leonard
Giannis
Bron
Curry
Harden
Davis
Embiid
Lillard
Jokic
George.
4.) 25 Sep 2019 22:59:12

Antetokounmpo
James
Harden
Davis
Curry
Jokic
Embiid
Lillard
George.
6.) 26 Sep 2019 16:04:26
I was shocked to see McCollum at 13. He definitely deserves an all star appearance.
7.) 27 Sep 2019 18:53:32
Kawhi
Steph
Harden
PG
Embiid
Lillard
Giannis
Lebron
AD
Jokic.
8.) 28 Sep 2019 20:09:23
I was shocked to see Trae Young higher than Fox.
9.) 28 Sep 2019 21:22:53
Giannis
Kawhi
Harden
Lebron
Curry
AD
Embiid
Jokic
Lillard
PG.
10.) 04 Oct 2019 02:39:13
LBJ should be number one.
11.) 07 Oct 2019 13:01:06
Lebron isn’t the default #1 anymore. He has to prove he can retake that spot (which I don’t think he can) .
12.) 14 Oct 2019 08:29:08
Put lbj on the Cavs for the 2018/ 2019 they win nba finals with lbj play from last year.
13.) 14 Oct 2019 15:38:43
You think the Cavs would win it all when Lebron couldn't even make the playoffs with the Lakers?!? He probably drags the Cavs into the playoffs, but they likely would have been out in the first or second round.
Saying they'd win it all is just delusional.
24 Sep 2019 11:11:49
Andre Iguodala requested out in Memphis, which team will trade for him since the Grizzlies don't want to buyout his contract?? Is there anyway that Gsw can get Iggy??
1.) 24 Sep 2019 16:50:57
The only "reasonable" way GSW can get Iggy would be in some trade with Russell leaving around the trade deadline. Not sure if Memphis is interested in Russell thou (with Morant) . Perhaps a three team trade is with Minnesota is doable.
2.) 24 Sep 2019 16:51:09
Likely no. They couldn't trade for him, they don't have the matching contracts.
Dallas, Houston, both LA's all make sense. I've heard Portland too, but I don't see it.
I also don't see Iggy being worth a first. He just isn't the full time player he was. He's a great regular season 8th man (playoff's more like 5th), but for someone like Dallas and Portland, they need someone that can play 15-20 minutes a game all season.
3.) 24 Sep 2019 19:51:45
GSW trades Russell to Minnesota
Memphis trades Iggy + Crowder to Golden State
Minnesota trades Teague + Culver (or RoCo + Dieng) to Memphis
Culver becomes the "1st round pick" that Memphis is looking for Iggy. Add whatever draft picks may be appropriate.
4.) 25 Sep 2019 14:20:10
Why would you trade Culver to get Iggy for a year?
5.) 25 Sep 2019 14:21:56
My bad they get Russell. I don’t see it for GS. 2 rotation guys for a locked up 23 year old coming off an all star nod just isn’t getting it done.
18 Sep 2019 14:21:42
My USA TEAM for 2020 Olympics
C: Davis/ Drummond
PF: James/ George/ Williamson
SF: Durant/ Leonard
SG: Harden/ Booker
PG: Curry/ Lillard/ Westbrook
1.) 18 Sep 2019 19:16:30
Would add Thompson or Beal over Booker.
2.) 18 Sep 2019 20:24:41
I'd be shocked if Klay wanted to go to the Olympics that shortly after his return from his injury. But yeah, Beal or McCollum over Booker.
Unless Zion looks amazing his rookie year, I think I'd take Middleton, Beal/ McCollum, or Draymond over him.
I want to see a Curry, George (or Lillard), Leonard, Durant, James ultimate death ball lineup. 5 guys that can score from anywhere. 5 guys that can control the ball and push the fast break.
3.) 19 Sep 2019 17:17:02
I am more intetested on who will be role players. Who can swallow their ego and just play D and get rebounds?
4.) 19 Sep 2019 20:48:14
No Melo for ghe Olympics? Wade?
5.) 20 Sep 2019 20:31:17
Davis, George, Leonard, Beal, McCollum, Green, and Middleton all feel like the Olympic role players. Maybe Curry too, he isn't one to let his ego take over like some of the other guys.
Obviously not all of those guys are for defense and rebounding, but if Curry and Lillard are on opposite wings with Lebron/ Durant/ Harden controlling the ball up top, they stretch the floor like few others. Those two could play top of the arc extended and pull defenders 5 feet outside of the 3 point line. You just have to convince them to play primarily off the ball.
6.) 20 Sep 2019 21:07:00
Good point about playing off the ball.
02 Sep 2019 18:03:37
what if the Warriors sign JR Smith, will he fit in??
1.) 02 Sep 2019 18:20:49
Not sure JR is better thsn anyone they currently have on the roster.
02 Sep 2019 18:00:28
I think the Rockets need to sign additional big man either Faried or Nene..
18 Sep 2019 13:48:04
^trade exemption from Ryan Anderson trade.
02 Sep 2019 18:06:43
havent seen LeBron, Davis and Howard playing together. so can't decide whos better trio.
10 Aug 2019 12:22:32
Memphis could be lucky if Hayward plays like an Allstar in Utah.

26 Jul 2019 14:06:37
I like the idea of these 3 teams making a trade.
Simple trade:
Chris Paul and 2021 Miami pick to Miami
Gordan Hayward, Goran Dragic and Boston's unprotected 1st pick to OKC
Steven Adams and Kelly Olynyk to Boston.
I forgot Draymond Green! No. 24 for draymond, no. 25 Carlos boozer
Im very sure
LeBron wins SEASONS MVP. Avg 25+ppg and 5+ each in reb and ast.
Davis wins Defensive POY. Top 5 in shot blocks and steals.
Parker wins Rookie of the year
Kerr wins coach of the year
Klay could snag MIP and Thomas for 6th man
Shoot. I forgot Anthony Davis.
Harden
Wade
Lebron
Griffin
Curry
Gasol
Lillard
Howard
Rose
Dragic
Bledsoe
Dirk
Melo
Walker
Bosh
My top 10 would be:
1. LeBron
2. Durant
3. Paul
4. Curry
5. Carmelo
6. Harden
7. Griffin
8. Love
9. George
10. Dwight
