Cap wise it’ll actually take both Randle n Boj. Booker makes 50 mil per yr


Not necessarily. Randle makes 30.3 Jeffries, Sims ,McBride, Diakate are 10.4 30.3+10.4=40.5 Those salaries meet the trade matching threshold or very slightly miss it I beleive.


You said it won’t take Randle, that we could do it with just Boj. We can’t trade for Booker without Randle is what I’m saying. And I’d rather trade Boj with him instead of having to include Deuce.

Taking salary into consideration, I’d rather just go after Donovan instead of Booker tho, cuz we could still keep Randle.

Yea… I think he’d be a good fit here as a #2 to Jalen. His defense is definitely improved from his earlier years, but he’s not elite or even good overall. I’d say he’s on the level of Jalen… serviceable/average at best, but can be good at key points in the game when dialed in.

We’d lose in certain areas without Randle, but gain in others with Booker. Tough choice.

I don’t think it will take Randle, Bogie and enough picks could do it, they will probably tank at this point and the picks will be more valuable.

Trade checker on this site says it works with just Bogie

Whoever we get has to be substantially better than Randle. Love him or hate him but he’s a 2x All NBA, 25 10 5 player on a good contract. We’ve already seen how good we looked at full strength. It’s why I think we’re better off adding another high end starter like Bridges.

Brunson/McBride
Bridges/Divencenzo
Anunoby/ Hart
Randle/Precious
Robinson/Hartenstein

It’s not set to next years salaries. Booker signed that extension last summer..

Bridges length and defensive versatility at the 2,3 when coupled with OG would make what you saw in the last 5 minutes of the 4th quarter vs Philly in game 4, a more consistent occurrence.

Salary cap wise Bridges 'only' makes 23-24M the next 2 years.

Mitchell as opposed to other stars 'only' makes 35M next year

Do either the Nets or Cleveland start to go rebuild mode? Which ever one decides to go rebuild mode you give them Bogs, McBride and a bunch of picks and the other you give them Randle and less picks.

McBride 4.7M
Sims 2.1M
Jefferies 2.5M
DIakate 2.3M

add up to close to 12M in filler.

You empty the war-chest of picks and end up with:

Mitchell/Achiuwa
OG, Achiuwa, Bridges
Bridges,Hart
Spidah, DDV, Hart
Brunson, Spidah

Booker makes no sense…He’s not leaving the suns to be Brunson back up and the cost would defeat the purpose.

@CariChampion
Just got a text from my friend. He says tonight is Lebrons last game in purple and gold

Few days ago there was some buzz about Lebron back to the Cavs to finish his career.

Don't know if this would potentially change the Mitchell plans but interesting nonetheless.

COntext is he would be the primary 2 and back up 1. It makes plenty of sense actually.

How is this team any better with Randle and Bridges in it?

I want to get a congratulation is Isiah Thomas. This guy has ruined 2 franchises by selling on getting names rather than trying to build a team with chemistry. That consultant job to Matt Ishiba was masterclass. That Beal trade look eerily similar to the sh.t he did with the Knicks. Beautiful! And now we get to see a franchise in the black hole until 2030.

I think it should be pretty obvious by now what this team is going to be moving forward, the person that's replacing Randle is OG. The starting forwards are Hart and OG, they just have more defensive versatility, like Maxey was giving OG a lot of trouble so last game they went with Hart on him and he did the best job so far. They'll look to find the scoring that Randle gives them at SG or C, whoever it is will be a two way player that can score / defend. Like right now with those two as the forwards, if you swapped out Donte (and Randle) for a more efficient SG/SF that could also defend we'd be in the conversation to win the title.


Bridges isn't the answer either.

Booker will want his own team...this guy just dropped 49pts last night...You really think he's going to be a glorified role player? not to mention, if the sun are going to give up-they

Bridges thinks hes a 1 and would also be TOO expensive...The Nets won't do the Knicks any favors...

We need to find a player thats evolving to pair with Brunson who is elite at scoring and defending...

What are you talking about? he'd be getting 36+ minutes under Thibs. We have Brunson and a bunch of gritty role players. Booker would be 1A to Brunson
