Re: Trade Talk (Part 15): Trade Deadline Day (and onwards!)

I started this in the KAT thread, but it belongs here.
For those who are interested in trading KAT I think this report is very intriguing.
The Atlanta Hawks are likely to trade one of Trae Young or Dejounte Murray, sources told Marc Stein of The Stein Line.
Young was recently cleared to return to practice following finger surgery.
The Hawks will play the Bulls in the play-in game next week.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be Young and he and KAT would blend beautifully together.
I'd like to make that deal and keep draft picks out of it because I don't think we could get much in the way of draft picks. I propose KAT straight up for Murray and Capela. Here's looking at their contracts.

Just signed for one season and is turning 30 in one month.
Rounding the numbers off it's it's 46 million for the pair next year.

One year of Murray and Capela at a slight savings. Then we let Capela walk and it's Miller Time. I'd feel really bad about doing KAT dirty like that. I do believe KAT will pair very nicely with Young.
I'm not averse to a draft pick or two coming our way in the deal, but I like Capela and his expiring contract after next year. It almost makes too much sense and we may have to do it.
Win for now has already brought up the point that Capela isn't quite the shooter we would want. That's true, but he's a good player and perfect for salary matching. His contract expires after this year so we can avoid the repeater tax. He's also expendable for Atlanta due to Okongwu. I'm trying to make our offer one that is realistic.
This is my first deep dive into a trade proposal. Shoot me down if you must.
