Raps - look if we are truly looking to trade away RJ (IMO dont) this is the sort of return i would want to get at the minimum, and yeah matherin plays the 2, but hes versitile and the raps can play around that, he would step into that RJ role (minus the playmaking) and OBI would be a great bench peice, to me as the backup centre that we can plat a small ball lineup of Quick, Grady/Ben, ingram, scottie and OBI.

Only set back is we would likely need to trade obi after this year cuz well have to pay mathurin (RJ contract)

(would likey trade ochai for picks)

PG - Quickley, Shead

SG - Grady, Jakobe

SF - Ingram, Mathurin

PF - Scottie, Boyles

C - Jakob, Obi

Pacers - I just dont see them even really coming close to contending this year without Hali, they have good peices around, but if they dont want to pay mathurin at the end of the year and look for some more roster flexability, I could see them trading for someone of RJ's caliber.

RJ and Pascal, yes they had a limited time together but they played IMO very well as a 3-4 duo, they may be more of a 3-5 duo next year if they dint figure smth out at centre, but I do think this is a good trade. + Andrew and RJ canadian combo could be nice)

  • you take a swing on mogbo and get to give some young guys a run before going back to competing.

(this lineup is likey their next years lineup, so with hali)

PG - Haliburton, TJ

SG - Nembhard, Shepard/Furphy

SF - RJ, Aaron

Pf - Pasal, Walker

C - Ijax, Mogbo/Huff
