I started off last season's thread the same way. Where will the Toronto Raptors play in 2021-22? You'd think they would know by now with 10 weeks until training camp. In Toronto Blue Jays has finally gotten an exception to play home so I expect the same for Raptors

Some teams have been trying to put a Lowry/DeRozan reunion together to entice both players to come Knicks reportedly tossed that idea out earlier but I mean I wouldn't mind it if you get boy guys on 2 year deals, Give them both $20-$25 mill a piece I'd lowkey look out for Miami to try to cut that type of deal since they have players they can leave off and get cap and pull sign and trades Lakers are limited and idk why people keep trying act like Kuzma trade is a winner. They can probably pull off Westbrook with that contract but I can't see them getting Lowry or CP3 unless they really want to be there. CP3 might ring chase but Lowry has options The proposed trade from Bleacher Report of Kuzma/Harrell/#22 for DeRozan doesn't sound so bad right now. Either that or DeRozan for Oubre and #14 from Golden State would be options that wouldn't be blockbusters but could help both teams involved. Don't either deal as enticing to Pop Either way you get two contracts and a decent pick for a player who can walk. Kuzma/Harrell and a pick sounds nice on paper but Spurs have been spending money and doubt they want to add more contracts on their payroll and not be any better than they were before

Does 7, 14, Wiseman and Wiggins for Beal get it done for both sides?

Does 7, 14, Wiseman and Wiggins for Beal get it done for both sides? Throw in some seasoning like Nico Mannion or Jordan Poole and it should I don't see GS giving up both lottery picks tho Wiseman, Wiggins, 7 and Mannion should do it with a pick swap later

Does 7, 14, Wiseman and Wiggins for Beal get it done for both sides? Not at that point in this draft. Beal should get a PG-esque return.

Eric Gordon to Pacers could be done soon, most likely draft day
Eric Gordon and the number 23 pick for the 13 pick. Pacers are also exploring Myles Turner deals
Considering Mitchell Robinson is entering his contract year, I wouldn't mind if Knicks wanted to flip him for Turner

Buddy Hield for Kuzma is being talked about While I don鈥檛 love it, It opens up the SG spot for Hali, and is kind of a move of necessity. Terence Davis sticks around as the features backup guard. Helps the Lakers more than the Kings because Buddy playing off-ball of LBJ and AD would be pretty nice.

Well, to add a little more Lakers are basically offering Kuzma and KCP to everyone so if the Kings make that trade, that's what I expect it to be Not a bad deal for Kings as two rotation players added to the mix for the cost of Hield who menaced his way into a big contract

Honestly, I鈥檇 rather just keep him and hope for the best over trading him for peanuts but whatever. Both sides are likely too salty towards each other for it to ever work.

Sixers season is gonna be real interesting. Their championship window is getting narrower... and some big decisions gotta be made.
- Do you get rid of Ben Simmons? What do you get for him that could be a decent return? Is it good enough to in fact justify trading him if it's not for a Lillard or a Beal? - If it comes down to it do you trade both Maxey and Thybulle? Or do you try and keep them when it comes to the raw talent? - Can you keep Seth Curry and possibly Dwight Howard? Who I think were two key pieces to last year even with Howard's foul troubles. - The Draft will be interesting. Do they try and take the best shooter available? That seems to be the biggest need.
Daryl Morey's usually an offseason and even mid-season wizard... it's gonna be really interesting to watch who goes where and especially who goes to The Sixers. The Process if over... they gotta show results this year or shit's gonna get really rough. Embiid is a generational talent... they cannot afford to waste his time.

You don't need Dwight Howard Part of their downfall was not having a backup Center who actually could stretch the floor. He doesn't fit the scheme they need

I think they go after another vet This won't be a young team outside of a few players, the window is closing

I think they go after another vet This won't be a young team outside of a few players, the window is closing If they keep Maxey and Thubulle and the newest Draft Pick? That's gonna be their young core if they keep it. No clue on Ben Simmons. Beal or Lillard aren't exactly spring chickens though if they were to try and gun for one. Or you keep Ben and try and make it work... I just don't think he fits here anymore and has shown zero improvement in the places needed. Without a doubt though they NEED to keep Seth Curry. He had a career year this season. What they need are more consistent three point shooters WITH Seth Curry.

I still don't see the obsession with trading the picks + Wiseman. I'd rather let him get him some seasoning and play time as a stretch 5 and add to the team's depth with some talent by staying pat. But I'm not the Warriors' GM, so *shrug*.
I'm not too high on the ROIs for a potential trade. I don't like Beal's game at all, Simmons is a hard pass (almost literally) and Dame is reductive compared to Steph is a negative on defense.
