dont think it would be a perfect fit but nevertheless adding an allstar/scoring champ is generally a good thing

thought tatum and KD paired nicely in the olympics. celtics should look into it.

i think so, they didn’t even have him on a contract until this week i think. he looks like a pretty good back up 5 with shooting

i don't think this is actually all that much about tax savings. beverley is expiring, they're probably not planning on being a contender this season with kawhi out, and they also probably think they can fix bledsoe after the batum and jackson reclaimations.

bev made an ass out of himself and the franchise in that phx series too
― Clay, Monday, 16 August 2021 01:26 (two years ago) link
i can't stand bev on the court and don't think he's that good. i've also seen a lot of dire bledsoe playoff games. so it's probably a wash.
― call all destroyer, Monday, 16 August 2021 01:28 (two years ago) link
surely you can turn pat bev on a 14M expiring into something better than negative asset eric bledsoe
― micah, Monday, 16 August 2021 01:30 (two years ago) link
idk, can you? beverley is in that special place where he's a limited player who is only useful to teams that want to win and also makes kind of a lot of money. i have no doubt the grizz will find a way to flip him but they can do it for future assets while the clips need to get someone who can play at a similar level now.
― call all destroyer, Monday, 16 August 2021 01:37 (two years ago) link
not sure what the clippers really need to be prepping for if kawhi is really gonna basically miss the whole year, gonna be a rough climb
― Clay, Monday, 16 August 2021 01:40 (two years ago) link
well they can get a look at bledsoe this coming year and see if he will help, if not his guarantee for 22-23 is pretty small
― call all destroyer, Monday, 16 August 2021 01:43 (two years ago) link
clippers need good value to pad out their bench and bledsoe is not that. i would have expected bev to be traded for young player/s who could be given heavy development minutes for a year while kawhi recovers. if bledsoe doesnt regain form (which he wont) the clippers are back where they started except bledsoe cant even shoot.
― micah, Monday, 16 August 2021 03:21 (two years ago) link
yeah what i’m saying is there was no trade for beverley that was getting useful young players back (let me know if you can think of one) so this is arbitrage on an expiring contract.
