Okay, I didn’t think we’d have another grab bag so soon, but Zach Lowe brought the goods in his Off-season Preview article.

Jrue Holiday Special

Also discussed by Slater in the Athletic:

From yesterday, @anthonyVslater looks at the Warriors, Lakers and Clippers' positioning or possibilities in the Jrue Holiday trade market (coincidentally one of my favorite players):
Do the Warriors, Lakers or Clippers make sense as a Jrue Holiday destination?Holiday would fit with all three West contenders, but it’s hard to put together logical deals for any of the three teams with New Orleans.theathletic.com

Here is Zach Lowe’s report of a John Hollinger idea to get him:

Trade Grab Bag 5.1. GSW gets Jrue Holiday JJ Redick NOP gets Andrew Wiggins #2 2021 MIN 1st Top 5 protected Who says no? (All of Bag 5 is from the Zach Lowe article)

Trade Grab Bag 5.2. GSW gets #8 2021 DAL 1st 2021 DAL Top 10 protected Kevin Knox II NYK gets #2 Who says no?

November 5th 2020

I like the idea, but those DAL picks should be very late and Knox is very eh. If they don’t put in Mitchell Robinson, then I need to see the actual 2021 NYK 1st to consider this.

Trade Grab Bag 5.3 GSW gets #7 2021 DET 1st Top 5 protected Luke Kennard Svi Mykhailiuk DET gets #2 Who says no?

Intriguing… this is a lot like TGB 4.2, which voters already thought was too bad for DET. I ran it again since it was in Zach’s article.

Trade Grab Bag 5.4 GSW gets #4 Wendall Carter Jr CHI gets #2 Who says no?

November 5th 2020

I’m intrigued. Are we sure Wendall Carter Jr isn’t better than Wiseman for the next two years? And for me #4 vs #2 is nothing in this draft.

Trade Grab Bag 5.5 GSW gets #12 2021 SAC 1st Top 5 protected Nemanja Bjelica Richaun Holmes SAC gets #2 Who says no?

November 5th 2020

Probably not quite enough for GSW, but it would beef up the bigs depth, and there are great finds to be had at #12.

Whew, as the draft gets closer I made the mistake of seeking out draft analysis podcasts. One pod’s reason for concern about Toppin was that he played a bit stiff and was 22. I looked up robotic 22 yr old PF’s and it turns out you should draft them first for best results.

It also looked like there Is no advantage to drafting younger in regards to years played in the league or likelihood of success when drafting in the top 3.

In fact it seems more experienced/already successful top 3 picks have more successful NBA careers unless LeBron. LeBron aside, more successful younger/less experienced players seem to come from the middle of the 1st Rd than the top.

Stop giving away Wiggins. I want to see him develop with the Dubs. Don't trade for anyone over 30.
