My Trade Target Suggestions for Mahindra

Let me guess, you cannot remember five players who are currently with Mahindra.

That is fine because the questionable decisions of Mahindra have pushed them to the brink of non-existence to the eyes of the fans. So, I am here again to offer my sincere help.

Allein Maliksi

Mahindra needs firepower. Maliksi will surely love to be the man. This will be a perfect combination. Mahindra's lone local double-digit scorer in the Commissioner's Cup was Reden Celda at 10.8 points. Do you even know that guy?


Allein Maliksi is one of the top three three-point shooter in the last few years, hitting 41.7% from the outside. With his size and length, Maliksi will be a pretty good focal point on any team's offense. He is also an above-average rebounder.

So, what to offer for him? How about their 2018 1st for Maliksi, Chris Javier and another 2nd round pick?

Carlo Lastimosa
Mahindra's biggest need is a main man. Lastimosa could be the cheapest out there. With NLEX, he is putting up 10.0 points, 44.7% FG, 1.8 assists in 19.0 minutes.  Last season, he was given the chance to take charge with Blackwater and he did well, 17.5 points, 43.1% FG, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists.

I saw enough to say that Carlo can be the focal point of a team and he will do a nice job. He is a legit "buwaya" but he is one of the few that can bite like a true crocodile. I will not be shock if two 2nd round pick will be enough for him.
