No player movement has happened but we are in the process of losing our coaching staff outside Willie.

The perception is that any coaches who had to deal with BI won’t want him in their new jobs.

There have also been numerous reports coming out of Cleveland that they dont want anything to do with paying BI a max. (This could also be posturing but /shrug ).

Its F5 and lie season, but one thing seems to be becoming certain is that BI going out for an All-Star is becoming less likely.

And the funny thing is that we don't know that at all, but most of us believe that perception. Because...well...

We are familiar with his play

I want a good fit more than an all star.

Dollar quarter dime theory is what it is but I want something that fits together right rather than throwing shite against a wall and praying it works.

Absolutely nothing has changed.

The only (2) allstars "available" are Trae and Mitchell. Mitchell solely dependent on himself.

Our other (3) options Garland/ Allen/ Murray are very much open. A trade for Trae is still very much open.

No one wants to pay BI the MAX at the COST of a trade.

No team wants to give up (1-2) 1st and (2) young players or (1) star for a max BI.

They want to spend less assets if they have to max BI or guarantee a lesser valued deal before giving away assets. That's the game, that's the hold up.

I've been thinking lately a lot about how knowing if Trey can be a true #2 or #3 is more desirable over keeping something that you already know. Depending on if the team is willing to take a step back for a year to figure this all out might mean we take three steps forward in the future.

Regardless if you let BI walk for nothing (worse case), we would have a max slot available as soon as this next offseason. So I think if I were Griff, it would be my prime operative to figure out:

Is Trey a #2 or #3
Can Dyson and Hawk give real minutes
Does this years draft pick (assuming we take) has a decent role going forward.

Assuming the test cases are answered above, who do we need to expand what we know to be true. For instance, if Trey's ceiling is a great #3, then our search should pivot to finding a #2.

If Hawk or Dyson (or both for that matter) give significant value to the team from the bench can we then use some money for a few years to fix any other holes.

If BI's value @ 100% = (4) 1st

Then BI w/ max contract = 125% (4) 1st and max

Teams wants to trsde (3) 1st w/ max contract to = 100% value instead of overpaying.

That's why we hear Houston/ Detroit/ Magic/ Spurs thrown around. A Trade helps them regardless and they have the cap space. They aren't worried about the (125%).

2025 offseason -

Actual cap allocations-

$40m Zion (non guaranteed)
$30.67m CJ
$14m Herb
$7.7m Dyson (TO)
$4.7m Hawkins (TO)
$2.48 Ryan (TO)
$2.3m Liddell (TO)

Trey’s new contract, this year’s first, and several roster charges also go here, so that is $101.85 for all contracts, plus about $5m in roster charges, plus Trey’s new deal, plus a guaranteed pick slotted at 21 as of now, so probably in the $140 range.


That doesn’t appear to be max money short of moving CJ, even if the cap keeps increasing.

Trey isn't getting more than 30mil and the (21st) pick will get less than 5mil

Should be closer to 132 mil

Which would give us 40 mil for upgrades/ assets. If you throw in CJ then we would have (70 mil) cap space with:

Dyson/
Herb/ Hawk
Trey/ Ryan
Zion/ Liddell
21st pick/

Trey can replace CJ's production in the starting lineup. I like Murray because he can replace BI's productivity while adding more ball handling and 3 point attempts.

With Trey replacing CJ in the starting lineup, you only need Hawkins to replace Trey's bench production. You almost need to move CJ to let Hawkins grow into that role.

You would be trying to moneyball BI and CJ, but I think you have the pieces to do it assuming you can get at least Murray for BI.

I think to myself, well at least this will all be over now in like 9 days. Then I remember that Donovan Mitchell wasn't traded until like September.

Yeah, I think that there's a 50-50 chance it gets done on draft night, but no more than that.

BI's value sucks because teams realize all he'll do is get you to purgatory.

He's the Derek Carr of NBA players. Not a real star and just good enough to get you to mediocre.

Any team that maxes BI will never win shite.

Yeah to me, it has become really apparent that we are looking to trade him a year too late.

His value has to be at its lowest

To reference Frank Drebin, “They say Nordberg’s got a 50-50 shot, but there is only a 10% chance of that.”

So like I said, nothing has happened.


The perceptions from fans is entirely irrelevant.

Nothing has happened as of right now that should make us fear anything with a BI trade.

This can be a good thing, meaning we don’t need to give him a max either if we keep him. Let the market dictate what his extension should be.

Saw this on twitter. Not looking good.

quote:

I have been told that the league views BI as 75% of Siakam -- as far as a trade asset (vs Siakam when Pacers got him) Raptors got a solid rotation guy on a bad contract (Brown), a C-minus first and a D first in a bad draft, and a B-minus future first for Siakam


A poster on a hawks site makes a good point. If BI value is this low, just hang on to him and extend him and look to dump CJ. Maybe rehab his value some and trade down the line.

Nah, disagree. Take the best BI offer we can get, even if it's not good. That's the best route forward IMO.


Keeping BI and trading CJ would not be good, unless Trey is shooting 20 3s per game


It should be trade BI/keep CJ or trade both...no other options IMO.

Didn't feel like waiting so i searched it on Twitter, it's Mac



Man, you guys gotta stop believing the shite he's making up, this is wild that you're still falling for it.


ETA: Just did a quick perusal of his latest tweets. He's getting you folks all riled up by saying all the BI "offers are trash"

He has no earthly clue what all the offers are, and let's be honest, we haven't received all the offers for BI or even close to it.

He's quite literally just saying shite to have Pels fans freak out. Stop falling for it.
