Jae Crowder trade request

[Split T]

Looking at it, I think of the trades that seem somewhat plausible, I like the Chicago one best. Give me Coby White and Javonte Green or Derrick Jones Jr if they prefer.

The Knicks aren’t going to trade Toppin. I think I like the Atlanta scenario better tho.

[ShelC]

I'd prefer not to trade Crowder to a WC team. That might not matter to some.

Someone mentioned a Cavs trade for Osman which I thought was a good idea. I think the Cavs have to include Windler for salary purposes. But Osman would fill in that do-everything offensive forward role off the bench to replace Cam, Jae goes to another young, up and coming team that could use his perimeter defense, shooting and leadership.

Mobley plz

lol

I just hope we take care of this soon.

[Indy]

I think it will linger.

Dean Wade? I mean yahoo fantasy did list him as PG/PF/C last year so he solves all of our problems at once, right? A backup 1 and legit 4 with size who can shoot the 3.

If we're somehow able to pull off getting Coby White from Chicago, that would fill a significant need at the backup point. Plus, I think he's the type of player that would latch on to CP3 and try to learn all he could.

[Indy]

Maybe, but he just doesn't seem very good.

[ShelC]

I feel like he's a younger version on Payne...smaller combo scoring guard, probably more scorer still but a feast or famine type.

I think it will linger.

If you were a betting man, what lingers longer? The Jae Crowder trade happening or Ayton / Monty getting smoothed over?

[Superbone]

Maybe, but he just doesn't seem very good.

Maybe Cam Johnson can have a press conference where he gets wide-eyed and can't believe we got White for Crowder.

Gambo said he expects the Crowder situation could be resolved by Friday.

[Split T]

Coby shot 38% from 3. He’s bigger than Payne. I’d be pretty happy if we get him.

Gambo said he expects the Crowder situation could be resolved by Friday.

How does he know? Does he know if we’re working on anything specific?

I have no idea, but it sounded like he thinks it won't linger.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Jae technically on the roster at Christmas.

I think there will be bad blood between Ayton and Monty for a long time. Coaches don't easily forget when players quit on their team. And Ayton probably feels like the team/coach quit on him by trying to ship him out last trade deadline, then again all over the place this summer.

I hope the market is hot for Jae. I think his value has gone up given other teams’ current needs. I could see Cavs and Heat salivating. JJ just needs to take the best offer.
