Nuggets/Hawks Trade

[WizKidFromSpace]

Denver Nuggets send:

Paul Millsap
2nd round pick 2018
2nd round pick 2020
$7.6 million in 2018 and 2019

Atlanta Hawks send:

2nd round pick 2020

That's all folks!

From my end, I think $22m in free agency will be worth more than Millsap and a 2nd round rook.

Hawks agree i add a great player ilike alot and add 2nd rd pick for nothing. I have a tone of cap to take chance on him

I’ve got to agree with this statement....

Just trying to confirm/deny whether we can trade literally nothing, for “something”

[GeoffTheScout]

I would say that Nuggets need to get something back even if its just a dump

I've talked it over with the Hawks owner, and we've revised to include an actual exchange.

Tending to lean this way too.

I'd be more supportive of Millsap (with more than the $7.6m paid) plus a 1st round pick, in exchange for a 2nd round pick. $22m for Millsap is still a ton of dough.

Also still need to confirm if we can trade nothing in exchange for something.

  Slept on this and while I think Millsap at 22m for 2 years is still overpaid I got no issue with deal. I think fully healthy he should have 2 good years left and Hawks can always pay more money and move him down the line

Also I'm fine with making 2020 pick available for trade now but ruling is that picks can only be dealt for current season plus up to 2 future years
