I don’t think so…I can’t say I’m up to date on Agbaji though

I’d trade Nurk and a 1st for Kelly Olynyk and Ochoa Agbaji.

Where does that get us, though? Is Kelly Olynyk worth losing a 1st for?

Is Kelly Olynyk worth losing a 1st? No, he is not.

….but losing a 1st for Kelly Olynyk AND Ochoa Agbaji while getting rid of Nurk’s ass? Yes, I think so.

Agbaji is having nice year. Still on his rookie deal, shooting 40% on 3s. Hes an nba rotation player. Hes a shooting guard tho, but the way this team gets injured, he’ll play a decent amount probably. Reports are he can be had for couple 2nds. Olynyk is a good 3pt shooter and passer, him and Richards would be nice center combo actually.

It would be a solid deal to me, you are getting rid of a waste of space for two decent rotation pieces, you probably can get a pity 2nd from Toronto too. I’d call it right now tbh.

Both would also be expiring contracts next year and both are good enough players that you could easily flip for multiple 2nds next year. The asking price for each is couple 2nds apparently. So Nurk and a pick that will be a late 1st is fair.

No thanks. Honestly I'd rather send Nurkic home if that's all we can get by spending a 1stR. Equivalent talent to Agbaji at a different position (forward, point guard, younger C/PF) I might consider it.

Pretty sure the Raps sent a first last year to the Jazz for Olynyk and Agbaji.

Just adding some fun slop on this Friday afternoon.

Fox is going to the Texas Rangers. He’s taking a page out of Michael Jordan’s playbook.

Yeah lol.

Their pinned tweet called Soto to the Mets days before it happened but that’s baseball stuff. Hey, It’s Friday, why not?

Apparently Gambo said there was a trade idea with Beal to sac, Fox to spurs, butler to suns, expirings to heat…obviously picks to kings and heat too

So maybe that’s the one they are talking about

Beal would waive his NTC to go to Sacramento?

That would explain why Don Harris referred to the trade as being complicated. Not sure how reliable he is as a source but you know if Gambo reported about it, then there’s certainly some truth behind it.

Ugh. Lakers would be getting Claxton in this potential deal, wouldn’t they?

Probably Paul too if I had to guess. Him and Bron are buddies.

Hopefully, the league steps in and rescinds Paul to the Lakers again lol.

I know this isn’t a popular opinion, but I genuinely think Beal knows this isn’t working and isn’t happy here. He’s a career starter coming off the bench here right now. I think Beal waiving his ntc isn’t as big of an issue as people think is. I think he’s ready to move on from here and as long as it’s not a dumpster fire, he’d go.

Yea I guess as much power as a NTC gives a player, it's kind of useless if both the team and player are unhappy and both want to move on.
