Lauri and Sexton for Murray, CJM, 2026 first (with Mil swap rights) 2027 swap (better of Mil/NOP for second worst of Utah/LAL/Minn/Cleveland)

NOP keeps 7 and drafts Fears? Sexton fills CJM’s role and helps keep them under the tax.

Utah looks for the third team for CJM and hopes DJM is a healthy small-asset in 12 months..

I would absolutely do that

I would think really hard on this but I think I'd say yes to it.

Call Giannis and see if he can be convinced to come to New Orleans. Milwaukee will likely want their picks back more than any other package that might be offered, unless they think they can get the next SGA/Hali-level young player in return.

I don't know if Milwaukee is particularly interested in Zion, but someone will be and I imagine a satisfactory 3-4 team trade could be worked out.

Maybe something like:

Zion to the Hornets
Giannis and Miles Bridges to Pels
Murphy, Tidjane Salaun and the picks to the Bucks
The hottest of takes...
