I cannot see trading Jae because he is the only person that can properly defend LBJ. Avery for same reason would be as close for same reason s..Plus he is our top rebounder..
Would hold on to jaylen for a while ,it would have to be a great one sided deal ..

I have no untouchables. I like these guys, but would trade any of them if the right situation presented itself.

The only thing is that most trades would probably be a two for one deal.

That's ok. Basketball trades are almost always "won" by the team that gets the best player.

I voted for Jaylen. I think he is going to be a great player. Stevens has to give this guy more playing time, because he has earned it.

You would think with the injuries it would go up. He has the talent. And desire..When everyone was -22 or so ,he was in the plus.. He did lose that one game for us but he's a rookie... And what would Marcus smarts excuse be for throwing the ball away ?

I went with Jae first, Jaylen second and Marcus third. If I had a 4th I'd go with Avery. I like defense and these are 4 of the better defenders in the league.

I have no untouchables. I like these guys, but would trade any of them if the right situation presented itself. As much as I like Jae, I'd have to entertain giving him up for the right price. At the end of the day, a GM's has a tough decision to make, but he always has to make the decision that will improve the team (either now, or down the line). Fans fall in love with certain players, and overvalue them as well. I'm guilty of that. We grow to think of these as our own family, we attach emotion to them, etc. But a GM cannot do that. It depends on circumstances, I guess. I mean, if you can be like the Spurs, and magically keep drafting franchise players, then you don't need to trade away your David Robinsons and your Tim Duncans and your Tony Parkers. But most teams have to make the tough decision whether to move their beloved star player who can fetch young talent in return, in order to have a successful future. There will never, ever, ever be another Larry Bird

I would say nobody but I went with Avery. I think he brings everything IT does, but younger and cheaper

I'd trade any of them for the right price. Maybe I should have put that as a option.. You are I think the second person to say that.. So would that include the draft picks? I assume you mean a superstar. What is a list of names that you feel would be worth giving up starters and draft picks.

That's a good question. I do value the Brooklyn picks a whole lot. But guys that I'd be willing to give up some combo of our starters and Brooklyn picks for:
Anthony Davis Boogie Lebron Durant Curry Blake Griffin Westbrook KAT K. Leonard
Im sure there are a few others but those are the ones that first came to mind.

I think they are after a game changer..But I have the feeling it's someone unexpected.. I know that those picks are a great asset..
Another thing is that most of our talented people are affordable.. So we have to work with that also.. If we get a superstar, he is going to have a max contract or close to.
