| If we're trading for a guard, Gafford would be the odd man out (although PJ is also expendable). Hardy/Martin/Powell are fillers and depending on the type of player we get, I'd be inclined to include the '29 LAL pick and PJ:
Tier 1 - Bonafied 2-way starter, borderline All-Star in their prime. I'd trade PJ, Gafford and the LAL pick for them
D. White
D. Bane
Tier 2 - Bonafied starter in their prime that can handle the team till Ky's gone and can play with him. Would trade 2 of PJ/Gaff/'29 LAL 1st.
A. Reaves
T. Herro
I. Quickley
Tier 3 - Starter-ish player that'd be relegated to 6th man upon Ky returning. Would trade 1 of PJ/Gaff/'29 LAL 1st.
M. Monk
A. Simons
C. Sexton
C. White
J. Holiday
J. Green
C.J. McCollum
I think we all are kinda leaning towards tier 3 and this is where I'm at (Gafford/fillers for one of these guards). So looking towards this tier, here are some notes and my preferable targets:
1st) C.J. McCollum - Experienced player that is an excelent volume shooter and has carried a lot of offensive load throughout his carreer with good PnR management. Very reliable and expiring this year (dont need to commit to him). Could be a better fit than Klay for that secondary ball handler with Ky.
2nd) A. Simons - Great volume shooter and good passer that thrives on the PnR. Doesn't draw many fouls, very bad defender (as is Sexton). Not sure Gafford or PJ are interesting to POR so would require a 3rd team.
3rd) M. Monk - 2nd best defender out of this group. OK PnR player, best passer of the group, but streaky shooter (2nd worst out of this group) and not that much of a volume shooter. Not a good driver and doesn't draw that many fouls. Locked up for 3 years in a decent contract.
4th) C. White - Good volume 3-pt shooting, mid passer, goes to the line well and is an OK PnR player. Expiring expecting a big payday given the season he just had (extension number is low, so he'd turn down). Not a good defender and won't be pleased to come off the bench when Ky returns in his contract year.
5th) C. Sexton - Consistent shooter that doesn't shoot that many 3's and isn't reliable on the pick-and-roll, more off the bounce stuff. Worst defender of the group and is a mid passer. Expiring that could be extended at a reasonable level and I expect him to be OK coming off the bench when Ky returns.
6th) J. Holiday - Best defender and highest BBIQ. Very consistent, but doesn't get to the lane and can't carry a high offensive load. Gives us versatility for defense/offense when Ky returns. Very big salary (3 years of 30M+) and oldest player here.
7th) J. Green - Younger player that could still develop some aspects of the game. Worst shooter of the bunch and worst passer. Won't be pleased to come off the bench when Ky returns.
Best case scenario:
Gafford + Hardy + Martin for McCollum
Do a solid sending him to a team that he'd become a starter while dumpimg future salaries in Martin/Hardy. Signing Jones to a vet-min and we're set. |
