Boston has to shed so much salary just to make that trade, that I don't think they have the depth left without Tatum to make this worth doing. And they'd just as soon still have Brown as KD when Tatum is back in a year.

KD just seems like a perfect player for the Boston system. Better than Brown and Celtics need a PF.
I mean it could tie in to a Jrue/KP trade.

Gafford, Demar, Martin, Klay, Hardy, Powell, 2026 Sac, 2027 SAS first to Utah
Sexton, Lauri to Sacramento
LaVine to Dallas
Sac gets younger and better.
Utah gets two unprotected firsts. Assume you can find a home for Gafford, Demar and Martin pretty easily.. Utah likes dealing with LAL, Gaff/Klay make a lot of sense there..
Dallas gets an offensive guard.. staying under the second apron likely means finding some second round pick contracts to fill the back of the bench. Or moving on from one of Naji/PJ.

But Dallas won't trade AD.

Thats too much for Lauir, imo. 2 unprotected 1sts for a guy who was pretty bad last year on a big contract is kind of crazy, no? I get that Ainge will want to be paid for what Lauri did 2 years ago and to ignore last year, but im not sure why teams would ignore it. In an 8 year career, he's had what, 1 star caliber season? Is that enough for 2 unprotected picks, 1 of them from a SAC team that will be favoured to miss the playoffs next year?
I'd go top 8-10 protection on the SAC pick and leave the other one unprotected, and i still think thats a lot as UTA isnt really eating any bad money (besides Hardy, but he makes baby money). I just dont think SAC can give up the 2026 pick unprotected...theyre too far away to do that for a player who might not be a star.

Utah reporters are saying that Kessler is NOT on the market and that he would be the hardest player on the roster to get. I am assuming this was Lakers Nation or one of their affiliated channels (e.g., the one with Smitty). I've noticed some exaggerated video titles with them lately, kind of disappointing.

Don't know its all over the net saying both Kessler/Lauri on the market, seems like Utah don't want to pay Kesslers next contract by the sounds of things, guess we'll see.

Pretty easily two all star caliber seasons. I would not do the deal without an unprotected Kings pick.

Sure, i can get behind 2 AS seasons. Still dont see that being worth 2 unprotected picks, especially when his most recent season was so underwhelming.
