if you could draft a zach trade with a good return that is still realistic esp with AKME in mind, which teams/platers are involved?
imo, i’m not too fond of any trades I’ve seen thrown around thus far but am completely prepared to be let down by the trade that happens because the front office waited too long to make a move
Lavine to pistons for Ivey, Joe Harris, wiseman and a protected first is probably my favorite and most realistic options.
Think you have to give them more value than LaVine for that package.
Harris is an expiring so he’s not really negative value despite his play.
Wiseman is probably kind of neutral value. Young, still some potential, but on an expiring contract so you have to figure out if you want to actually pay to keep him.
Ivey is a really interesting player but he’s an undersized shooting guard. Decent size for a PG, though, if you think he can develop that part of his game. Personally, I’d like to see Coby get more opportunities to drive and Ivey would be a bad fit on that front.
Throw in the 1st and I’m not sure LaVine is worth Ivey and a 1st and maybe some value with Wiseman, depending on your perspective.
Harris is purely for salary purposes. It’s him or bog and I think they either value bog or can get something of value in a trade for him. Wiseman doesn’t have much if any value so it’s protected first and Ivey who they moved to bench for an all Star. I think it works
