Where will Jrue Holiday finish the season?
The Dame trade brought 33yo defensive specialist Jrue Holiday to the young, rebuilding team that are the Blazers.
I think he'll be traded as soon as possible during the season, after he mentored the youngsters for a few months.
Phila (with Harden to LAC) is a possibility, don't think Miami will do anything special, then? Who needs him more (and has the pieces to get him)?

I agree that the PHI/LAC/POR trade is the most obvious right now, but I'm not sure I actually believe it will happen. If Portland is patient some front office will convince themselves they're contenders and Jrue is a perfect fit for those teams.
I think Atlanta is an interesting possibility! Jrue and Snyder would be a fun combo, but I'm not sure if Portland would want Murray.
do you think the Murray experiment is already done? That would make Young look very bad imo
Tbh I never believed in the Murray experiment, so that may be clouding my view. I don't think Young is necessarily the problem, I'm just not sure how to build a team around him. The Hawks games I watched last year didn't impress me much, but maybe the coaching change will be enough!
I just remembered that they already signed Murray to 4/$120M, which I think kills my trade. Pretty sure he's not eligible, and I doubt Portland wants that long term money.
I think the Celtics will get him. But I wish it was Dallas
Celtics actually have picks to invest and could finagle the cap space to make it work but it’d take someone headed out to get a trade exception.
Do you think Dallas would use him enough having Doncic and Irving?
Bring him back to NOLA
Probably yeah
