Wow, no picks or anything. Hilarious that ATL had to legitimately salary dump Trae

 

[BatManu20]

No picks is nuts tbh. Basically just a salary dump. Wild.

 

[BacktoBasics]

Done....McCollum and Kispert get it done

Trae probably helps Coulibaly look better like he did Risacher.

 

[100%Duncan]

Damn, ATL got fucked

 

[Strategic]

Trae could walk after this season I think.

Yep.... he'll help Sarr for sure too

 

[mo7888]

Trae could walk after this season I think.

He's not opting out....zero chance..

 

[FiestaSpurs]

That went from nothing imminent to happening really quickly.

 

[Hoopdreams11]

Hawks about to be in the playoffs there goes the high draft pick

 

[spurraider21]

lmao

i know there are issues with Trae, but if im ATL, i'd rather just keep him for another year and let him walk later. maybe his value bumps with improved play. or when he's expiring without a looming player option

only reason id actually do this right now if im the hawks is if i know im getting anthony davis and this was just a requisite move to get that done

 

[mo7888]

I don’t think there’s a conversation to be had that would “realistically” work for both sides.

I think ATL would do it for Okongwu but that’s not enough for us.

Maybe Okongwu and Risacher would appeal to us. But their not wanting to do that for AD and he’s a guy they want.

I'd give them their swap and 27 for Okongwu + Risacher.... I dont believe they do that though...

What the fuck is Atlanta doing LOL that is absolutely horrendous return value. How do you not get a pick or something else? Trae has flaws but Christ.

Desmond Bane gettin like 5 picks and Trae gets nothing. Atlanta is really going ALL IN on that 26 pels pick, if that falls out of top 3 they’re gonna have a shit fit over there

 

[100%Duncan]

We have all these “highlights” why just not start the fucking game

 

[SpursFan86]

Shams reporting that this has big implications for the trade deadline. Frees up ATL to make a move for AD.

Shams reporting that Trae legitimately wants to be in WAS and sees a future there

Stern trying to make the Wiz relevant this year like he did the Lakers last year. It’s a head scratcher

There was nothing for them to get anywhere.... that's just where Trae's value currently is..

He's sees a future check.... he might be right...

thats the only way it makes sense. given the return, they may as well have just kept him and let him walk later.

i think it will be risacher/mccollum and maybe a singe pick/swap to get anthony davis, and then kispert becomes the SF to replace zaccharie

 

[Paramore]

traded wow

That's just it...he wasn't walking...he was opting in because he couldn't get that money anywhere else this summer..

 

[Sugus]

Wow, not a single pick as return for Trae. CJ McCollum lol, how the mighty have fallen

 

[CGD]

CJ is gonna screw this pick for us.

 

[OK Computer]

ATL’s Pelicans pick is going to be the #1 pick. Book it.
