Tyler Herro

Herro doesn't have that much value. Its an overpay by at least the future 1st

Not for me...
the important asset in a Simons trade is the pick.... it would need to be #16.
I don't care what salary comes back (within reason)

Pels say Yolo and trade up to #2 for Harper.

Herb, #7, '26 swap rights with NOP/MIL 1st, '27 MIL 1st
for
Keldon, #2

Spurs get a haul and key Bucks pick control.
Pels get a top core piece to build forward.

Scotto reporting that Philly has engaged San Antonio on trying to move up from 3 to 2. Not vouching for any credibility here, just a fun little nugget

Seems like a bizarre direction, given that they already have Tyrese Maxey and Jared McCain.

Not if you think Harper is a future star.

Also, the Suns may value the future picks Philly has to offer to move up more than Harper.

Maxey is a shooting guard who has incredible end-to-end speed but doesn't have an elite handle. He is a lightning quick shooting guard in a point guards body.

Jared McCain isn't someone who makes you think twice about trading up for a Harper-tier prospect.

What would a KD trade to the Clippers look like? Could they keep Zubac?

KD/Richards CLIPPERS
Zubac/DJJ/KCP SUNS
Bogdanovic/Eubanks MAGIC

#3+McCain for #2

Do you think this has merit? I see it for both

I love McCain and I think if you believe in what you saw last year it is enough value in a vacuum, but San Antonio would still have the problem of 3-guards that probably all need to start + I'm not sure you want to play Fox and McCain together.

I think the problem is less with an obvious 6th man scorer like McCain. I like McCain better with both castle and fox since he's better off ball than Harper.

Anyway, just a thought.

Probably. But i was was trying to beat all possible offers from other suitors (not the best thing to attempt for a GM haha) and still keep Trey Murphy who they would probably covet most if losing Durant. But I might just make a Durant/Murphy centric trade instead and save on a lot of the other stuff included in this one. Or should i just take some stuff out of this one to make it more fair? Just #7 and 26 Pacers pick instead of the 2 future Pels picks? Or is it no-picks-at-all kinda off?
