Do you think Avery Bradley to Minnesota for the #7 pick is something either side would consider?

I guess Thibs loves Bradley and the Wolves are determined to make the playoffs next season.

If the trade were to go down, who would you take at 7?

I've been thinking about this scenario and I'm torn between Markannen and Jonathan Isaac.

Who is the better prospect?

Isaac without a doubt. We need to be drafting for upside and his measurables are insane.

What else would it take?

I doubt that Isaac will still be on the board at that point, but you never know.  I wonder if Horford could get said pick from the Wolves, though.

Isaac maybe, perhaps Markannen. If Tatum somehow fell through definitely him.

Trade him after one quite productive year? Not a good look to other free agents I would think.

Probably Markkanen. His shooting touch and quickness at his size is just too tantalizing for me. He needs real work on the defensive end, but he could be passable one day on that end.  His super quick release combined with unmatched accuracy make his jumper deadly. I view him as the best shooter in the draft.

Above is a nice bball breakdown of him

Basically whichever of Isaac or Markkanen is left at 7.

If Bradley is getting traded for a pick its for a future pick not one for this year. The 7th pick is slotted for over $3 million which means the Cs have to dump $3 million more in salary to fit in a max free agent. And why? To have a 4th or 5th rookie on next year's roster? Not happening.

 I second the FOS pick.

No, but this is more of an idea if you're going all in on the youth movement, which isn't going to happen, anyway.

So that would be a "no" to moving him to OKC for 21, I take it, lol? ;D

Doesn’t matter because there’s no way Minnesota trades it to us. One year of AB or IT isn’t even near enough value for a young team that isn’t close to contending yet. The #7 pick is much more valuable to the wolves than a year of IT or AB.



 It's a great deal if they have no problem paying Bradley

If they’re willing to pay Bradley they’ll just sign him after this year. He’s unrestricted, and he’s not helping them win anything next year, they’d barely make the playoffs. Makes absolutely no sense to give up that kind of asset for a guy who if you’re willing to pay big bucks, you can just sign him after this year and give up no assets.
