Hearing MLK start time then a shortened season to start the playoffs on time. 

That’s a great time. I still think they should normally start in April.

Mid January start sounds reasonable.

Mid to late November and be done early mid July. They are only sport on TV for the Finals then and still allow Athletes to complete in Olympics

maybe cause I pretty much only watch 6ers games and he never does anything against us, but I have the impression he sucks. Even if not, as a 6ers fan, thats still a completely meaningless addition for the celtics.

Off of just stats none of his numbers jump out at you other then shot blocking. Everything else is bench type numbers

A career 35% 3P Shooter, Embiid has to respect it, and blocks 2.5 shots a game while only being 24. He will absolutely make a difference. That would be a massive upgrade over Theiss who can only rebound. 

That trade would definitely strengthen the C

Potential back up big in Vernon Carey in the draft. He has lost 25lbs or so since Duke and looks like he is ready to go. 

Seen a jazz fan saying Mike Conley for Horford. I couldn't accept that trade fast enough. Problem is we will probably have to include draft picks. 

Is Elton tipping his pick again? We will see. Remember this name on draft day.

Most know a Grizz fan and watched Conley his entire career. He has been become a reliable 3p shooter shooting 38%  his career and is a great pass first point guard. Him with Embiid would be deadly. Gasol and Conley were great in the pick and roll and if Embiid can work on that FT jumper then match made in heaven. 

I think last year with the Jazz it was never the right fit for him with Mitchell also being the initiator of the offense. That can throw off your rhythm as a ball dominant guard. 

 

Still no place for Ben to play. He can't shoot a jumper, can't shoot a corner 3, like where he go on the floor when running a dominate pick and roll that is a mismatch nightmare. I hope they trade Ben asap. 

This isn't really a three team trade it was just easier to put in that way. Chrome suggestions keeps giving me different trade ideas from rifles from other cities, so I added two together to see what you people think. Horford and a second for Conley. Simmons for Lavine, Young, and two firsts. 

Yep let's do this trades 

why would the jazz want Horford?

According to the article to dump Conley because he plays too similarly to Mitchell and to gain someone to stretch the floor. 

Assuming players the caliber of Tyrell Terry will be gone by 21 I wouldnt be mad at all about Isaiah Joe being the pick.

His shooting looks spectacular. And its not just spot ups. He can make the side dribbles and hit it. He even has step backs. And it looks like he has potential for a nice mid range game to beat aggressive closeouts.

Hawks shopping 6th pick to immediately improve playoff chances. Looking for shot creation with Trae.

Simmons sounds like a fit.

I don't think they don't have the players to make it work

I believe they have cap room so they dont need to match salary. 

Though they apparently want to do this to immediately improve playoff chances so Im not sure how much else theyd be willing to give up in addition to the 6th pick. Obviously, we will want a bit more than that.

I just assume all nba teams are over but turns out they aren't.

You know, Horford there is a solid idea. For a team said to be looking to bolster playoff chances, AND has cap space heres a veteran big who can help spacing to free up Trae Young too. 

I would take less 1st round picks if theyd take on that contract.

I would like to at least try for Huerter though. 

I looooooove Collins as a player and think the Hawks are making a mistake because they are shopping him. 

Per 36 is 40% on 3.9 attempts from 3, 80FT, 3 offensive rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 23ppg. 

Those are perfect stretch 4 numbers to me

I like Embiid Collins Harris. Guards would obviously need work. I'm not a fan of getting rid of Ben but just going through trades. Collins is due for a major contract. He averaged a double double last year and has the ability to step back and hit the three. Huerter doesn't really do anything for me and Id rather have Richardson back than him, allowing Richardson to be more ball dominant. 

Either way here's Huerter added and a draft pick out. I went with a later year pick because I think the Hawks will find a way to screw things up by then
