If we're maintaining Lowry/DeMar/JV, need shooters around them. Noel isn't that.

If we are losing BB, we absolutely need to chase down NN. Goes well with DD and PP. Our double-initial quota is running low.

Not a bad idea. I read that Noel was developing an outside shot, but it didn't work out for him last season. JV said he's going to hit 3's next season, so perhaps even a JV-Noel frontcourt could work, as Noel reminds me somewhat of Amir when he first got here - with a lot better rim protection.

I'd be down for Noel. The defensive potential of our frontcourt would be high enough to make it worth trying. Offensive question marks for sure, but definitely worth a shot.
What would the price though? He's probably their best trade chip so you gotta think they want a lot, right?

I'd love to have him but I wouldn't pay a steep price for him.
And I think the notion of JV as a stretch big has gotten a little ahead of schedule.Last edited by Mess; Fri May 27, 2016, 01:08 PM.Two beer away from being two beers away.

octothorp wrote: View PostA 3-big rotation of JV, Noel, and Patterson would be fantastic, IMO. Something like a base rotation of 14 minutes of JV+NN, 12 each of NN + PP and JV + PP, and 10 minutes of one-big smallball, mostly with JV. Unlike anyone we'd be able to draft at #9, Noel is good enough to be a starter now on a good team. And he still has room to improve. He's shown the versatility to play both positions, and between JV and PP we could really take advantage of that. We won't be able to draft anyone who meets those short and long-term goals.
Offensively, JV & Noel together might get a little cramped, but if rotations were well-managed, they only have to share 10-15 minutes of floor time and they could be teamed up with lowry, POWell, and Carrol for those minutes (assuming Ross goes out in the NN trade).
I'm not sure I'd do Ross+Pick#9 straight up, but would definitely do Ross+Pick#26. Whether that's enough... probably not.
EDIT: The 76ers would have to throw Carl Landry in to make the cap math work. I've lost track of him. Is he still any good? At 6.5mil/year (1 year left), how does everyone think that would affect such a transaction?Last edited by Chefff; Fri May 27, 2016, 03:16 PM.

And even if that all didn't work, the teams could arrange the deal and make the trade in the summer when the 76ers will have a mountain of cap room to take Ross into. In that case it's even possible we take a guy like Carl Landry off their hands to free up more cap space for them (as at that point Ross' 10M deal allows us to absorb a lot of salary in a trade).
