Title: Nuggets Celtics trade idea - Mudiay
Post by: Tr1boy on July 08, 2017, 01:41:00 PM
To Nuggets: Crowder, Rozier, 2nd round pick
To Celtics: Mudiay, Hernangomez

Reason: With the loss of AB , Celtics could use another guard.  Mudiay combination of size, ball handling ability would be a good fit under CBS.  Hernangomez takes over Jerebko duties

Horford
Morris
Hayward
Smart
IT4

Theis/Zizic
Hernangomez/Yabu
Tatum/Nader
Brown
Mudiay

Is there a big need on this team for a non shooting non defending young guard? If there is I think it can be filled nicely by any of our summer league guards...

I get wanting Hernangomez, but I don't think Mudiay is really a considerable upgrade over Rozier.  Trade doesn't make a whole lot of sense from the Celtics standpoint

I don't know that Denver trades Hernangomez for Crowder, honestly.

Mudiay was once a blue chip prospect and still hasn't reach his potential. Due to injury last season, he lost his starting spot to Jamal Murray....  But this could mean a gain for the Celtics

Mudiay is not a bad shooter.  He can improve. There is no indication he can't.   Otherwise, size, athleticism, size, passing, ball handling abilities are nice. Can guard multiple positions

This deal can't be agreed for Hernangómez alone, Denver wants a lot more. So...

Hernangomez isn't really the type of player you sell low on to clear up playing time. He was quite good last year.

I understand...but his value/development may drop with too many PFs in the lineup

Unless the plan is , he will be the 1st PF off the bench

They really like Hernangomez upside and would not make that trade.

We don't need a project.  He's pretty bad currently.

Yeah, he's pretty underwhelming at the moment. He's got good size but that's really the only plus in his game. I don't think you can count on him to contribute much at this point.
