Ball Security Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 https://sportsnaut.com/kristaps-porzingis-trades-washington-wizards/amp/ Do these four proposed Porzingis trades not seem incredibly lopsided in Washington’s favor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergasun Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Yes. The only one not is the Blazers.... is it a late first and a 2nd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Sucks to see two guys like Kuzma and Porzingis come to DC and get their careers on track only to be jettisoned. Next season is gonna be rough. Wizards 100% back to that team you buy tickets for because you wanted to see the other team instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBash Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Marcus Morris and “draft compensation” per Shams. Hopefully at least the 35th and maybe a future 1st Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Paul can be packaged with another player since he was recently acquired, but he can be traded alone. Unless the rule has changed? Someone here might know more.

CRobi21 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Have to think Morris will be dealt/dumped too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONAWARPATH Posted June 21, 2023 Author Share Posted June 21, 2023 Yeah, I'm not down with this at all. Personally, I don't believe this roster needed to be completely gutted. You just needed to remove Beal (his salary). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 1 minute ago, CRobi21 said: Have to think Morris will be dealt/dumped too.. Agreed. No point in a 34 year old forward here. But someone else will want him. Maybe not at $17M. But Washington could buyout or eat a bit of his deal if another team if they'll give back some other assets.

Remember that we got him for nothing and the Mavs even threw in a 2nd round pick to move him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball Security Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Anyone have some comparable deals to Porzingis? #30 overall while taking on a problem contract seems light. But I don’t know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TradeTheBeal! Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Porzingis was fun to watch. I wish him the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I don't believe this roster needed to be completely gutted. You just needed to remove Beal (his salary). I think we needed to start over from square one. The problem with keeping Kuzma and Porzingis is their age. At 27 years old, they aren't going to have the same career windows as the key guys we draft this year and next. Kispert, Avdija, and Davis are the only guys left who are young enough to fit into the same window as our forthcoming high draft picks. We have to try and salvage some value out of everyone else. Sucks though, I liked Kuzma and Porzingis. They are easy to root for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I don't believe this roster needed to be completely gutted. You just needed to remove Beal (his salary). I like Unicorn, but this is first time in long time he's been even remotely healthy. Law of averages suggest he won't play as many games as this year but possibly make more on a team that knows it won't be competitive with or without him. I don't like the idea of tanking, but some do, and looks like they are getting what they want today. I like Kuz, but didn't want to beg him with cash to stay...we aren't trying to back our way into a 10th seed and unfortunately this is what the alternative to that actually looks like.

Metalhead Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Looks like a solid trade. Normal value all around without the weight of an NTC lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad Boston's ownership group isn't cheap like Leonsis and is going to be a crap-load in luxury tax payments (something Leonsis has always loved as a recipient of it). They needed to gut the team and give valuable PT to any player worth developing. Boston became the EC favorites with this deal. Miami, IMO, should have been all over this deal. They could have offered Lowry+#17+filler. KP would have been a huge upgrade for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
