Grizzlies/NBA trade deadline 2021 and beyond
GrizzTigerFan replied to BigHunkALove's topic in Grizzlies Team Talk
6 mins ago – via Jake Fischer @ Bleacher Report Dragic appears likely to head to Toronto in such an agreement, which sources around the league expect to include Precious Achiuwa. There is a belief among rival executives that both Dragic and Achiuwa could be rerouted elsewhere in subsequent trades. And while the Heat still seem focused on finding a path to bring on DeMar DeRozan as well, that does not sound like a requirement for Lowry to join Miami. Maybe we can sneak into that rumored TOR MIA Lowry deal. See if they are willing to give us Dragic for Bledsoe+Grayson. Bledsoe could be a decent fit in TOR as a low-rent Kyle Lowry. Grayson gives them shooting. I don't want Achiuwa. -
Only starts at 6 eastern time

I've been lurking forever after making that thread.... I've seen this phrase 1000 times! Y'all are hilarious! I'm officially etched in Grizzlies message board history!😂😂😂 But nah for real... James Ennis was better than Justice Winslow was!😂😂😂

The teams can still do a sign and trade after an offer sheet is signed. It's more of issue of finding a way so it's beneficial for both teams. Like the team signing the player to the offer sheet might want to get off some salary. The team losing the player gets something. Main thing on a sign-and-trade is the team receiving the S&T player is hard capped for the season. Can't go above $143Mish in salary. So they lose flexibility.

I have a hard time seeing anyone wanting Bledsoe unless its the Knicks. It would be much much easier just flipping Tyus and keeping him as backup if he wasnt such a headcase. -
Can I take a second and talk about Jontay Porter and Killian Tillie
GrizzTigerFan replied to grizzgolf's topic in Grizzlies Team Talk
keeping Tillie means we have to move off of someone else because he takes us over 15. -
How do sign and trades work again? I thought if a player officially signed an offer sheet, you couldn’t subsequently work out a sign and trade.

Agree with you both and I see not enough fans are familiar with Adams game. They keep focusing on losing JV and not that we picked up Adams. The fact that he won't demand the ball on offense is why i believe his fit will ultimately be better. He also can operate in a faster paced offense much easier than JV could. He is more versatile on defense too and won't be glued to the paint like JV. As far as fit IMHO i think we completely won that trade. NOP is selling JV like he is some floor spacer, when in reality he is gonna need the ball to really have an impact. Whereas Adams is fine setting hard screens, protecting rim, and grabbing boards or boxing out. He is way more used to playing with a PG like Ja than JV was. I dont see how JV and Zion can coexist. -

Would a Bledsoe for Prince and a Grayson for Knox trades be acceptable in your opinion? I would send a 2nd round pick or two to faciliate this if needed. We get two SF which we can choose from as backups (Prince as a veteran one, and Knox as a reclamation project) and choose between the two before the season starts. -

Adams will go back to 12-13 ppg in this offense with no plays ran for him. Before his disaster season last year (New Orleans was a wreck), he has always had comparable advanced stats to JV (WS, VORP, plus minus) and more importantly he doesn't become a target against good teams or in the playoffs. -
We all choose to be fans. I know more laker fans than Grizzlies fans

Exactly, I was one of the main guys saying swing for the fence, not the swing I initially wanted but looking at it without bias, probably one of the better swing we could've made considering who was on the board.

Yeah, JV went beast mode in a bunch of games but he also had games where he missed a ton of short shots while getting killed on defense. And he generated some of his offense on offensive boards, but a good 6-8ppg of his were pick and rolls where he got the ball in a dunking position from Ja. Some of that will be replicated by Adams. -

What we need right now is patience - don't expect to be a top 5 team next year. Let these guys play & grow into a cohesive unit. A lot of the direction we'll take will depend on JJJ's performance & health - I hope he's ready to blossom next year.
