I think you absolute pick up a PF this draft or Bigman, I can garrantee you if Miami ends up making any trade, the one guy everyone will ask from our young player is Jovic, and for Mitchell, Durant, etc that Pat will risk it for, he will absolutely let go of Jovic for that chance. I absolutely agree to get more there because chances are this player will be getting minutes in the upcoming season from day 1 if a trade goes down in the offseason.
I'm all for drafting a frontcourt player. I think it's a must. If Miami can end up with a big man that has versatility to play PF or C from the draft, then I think that's the best case scenario. That's hard to come by tho. A lot of interesting frontcourt players in the draft.
I feel like the board is kinda split as to who generates more trade value between Jovic and Jaquez and who everyone prefers to trade. I think it really depends on the trade partner.
I am looking at it from the other teams around the league I think the intrigue of Jovic of what could be at that size and skill seems to be the thing people will ask for, specially cause he is 20 years old as well. JJJ being older and more polished is probably going to turn teams away thinking that there's a chance he is at his current level based on age and additional years in a system, instead of being one and done. I also tend to listen to podcast from Boston's, Raptors, Nuggets, Philly, Bulls, T-wolves, and usually talking about Miami the most interested player is always Jovic.
That def makes sense. I still think it's so close that it's completely team personnel dependent. Multi-faceted wings that can defend multiple positions, play on-ball or off-ball, and find their own offense are one of the harder things to come by in the NBA and teams can never have enough of them. I doubt Miami is trading with any of the teams you mentioned this offseason (Chicago could be viable). I might be too locked in on Cleveland's team makeup here, where for any pipedream Mitchell trade Jaquez would probably be more desired than another frontcourt player.
I think this is indicative of a great thing--Miami finally has some young players that are viable trade assets!
