DAL: T. Young
CHI: D. Powell
DAL: M. Leonard, D. Waiters, J. Johnson
MIA: T. Hardaway Jr, C. Lee
Trade 1 would be awesome - pairing JJJ with KP would be sweet and would be easily the best young 3 core in the league by a mile. No chance of that happening for a Memphis team that is trying to build around him and Morant.
Trade 2 makes us worse. We are not deep at the 5 - certainly not deep enough to trade DP and not get back a 5. Young is an upgrade on DFS (albeit an older one - actually, Young is what we all hope that DFS turns into, right?).
Trade 3... Puke.
Trade 1 it's Josh Jackson, former Suns 4th pick, would be just a throw in.
Trade 2 turns KP into a 5 for good. Young would be like a Millsap kind of guy, but good point on not having deep big rotation.
Trade 3 Is not that bad if you think that is a Lee for Leonard (we try Leonard till the end of the season and move Powell to the bench mob) and THJ for Johnson and Waiters (both will become expiring next season and Waiters could probably fill the THJ role while Johnson could provide more defense and phisicality). I could be wrong, haven't watched those guys in years but at least Leonard can shoot and probably rebound better than Powell (not sure about his defense, but in playoffs last year with the Blazers played really well overall).
