In terms of trading Pascal, the only realistic one I can think of is Warriors.
- Raptors get 2 FRP, Moses Moody, Wiggins, Gary Payton
-Warriors get Siakam
I don’t really want Wiggins but it would be for salary matching and then maybe we flip him. I know some people will say that’s too much for Pascal- even if he’s expiring, that trade makes it a pretty easy path for the Warriors to get to the conference finals.
There’s not really that many trades super appealing. It’s easy to say we want a rebuild and get young picks and prospects but when you actually fuck around with the trade machine there’s not much available.
Darius Garland is having a terrible season thus far and the Cavs stink…there is talk that they might make a big trade and if they end up trading Garland I would give up a lot to land him…not sure if they will move him but if they’re willing to then the Raptors have to be involved in that trade, even if it’s a three-way trade and it means giving up something like Siakam + GTJ, you do it IMO
herro or giddey
Knowing Masai, he’s gonna pull something like this:
I think herro would be nice next to Scottie. Pascal for Herro straight up. Or a kuminga package.
Siakam for Trae Young
Warriors would say no.
Wiggins has been ass this year, but over the past 2 years, he has been great for them.
They would probably much rather revive Wiggins again than spend all those other assets to get a worse fit in Pascal.
Could you imagine a Curry/Siakam duo? Honestly would be pretty disgusting offensively. A lot of people would call it expensive, but the Warriors don’t have much of a window left. If they want more chips with Curry they’ll need to keep making moves, especially if the team keeps playing the way it is.
swap out wiggins for cp3 and i think the warriors say yes. I think cp3 could fit well if the raps really want to still stay competitive and they can also trade him since he’s an expiring contract for more young assets or picks.
Zack lavine is not the answer to anyone who wants to comment that
Pacers make a lot of sense, too. They have young assets to give us and shooting to put around Pascal
They’d have to engage in a OKC, multi year rebuild for anything to happen. Like, the team is fundamentally fucked. They will probably end up letting everything expire and sign guys to minimums.
Has anyone else heard the rumor that Masai isn’t actually the one leading the FO, but that it’s involvement from MLSE to not rebuild? All of these moves make zero sense and Masai has shown to be a bit more capable than that
