OKC/UTA/MIL/SAC

This is complicated, so it probably won't happen, but there is reason to do it for all parties.

OKC in- Kanter, Williams

Why? Interior scorer and rebounder to make push for playoffs and keep Durant happy. Both expire, but have RFA rights to Kanter.

UTA in- Henson, Middleton

Why? Good return for Kanter that addresses teams needs of backup center and perimeter player.

MIL in- Perkins, Collison, Stauskus

Why? Collison and Perkins allow Bucks to continue to push for playoffs, and Collison gives Bucks a cheaper, true PG for a few years instead of overpaying Knight. This deal frees up a lot of cash to buy out Sanders and pursue a true starting center.

SAC in- Ilyasova, Knight, Lamb (or alternatively, Stauskus stays and Lamb goes to to MIL).

Why? Stretch PF to pair with Cousins to open up paint, and possible upgrade at PG. If Knight works out, SAC can extend him over the summer. If Ersan doesn't work out, the last year of his contract is a team option.

Makes no sense for Milwaukee. They have been overachieving right now so why ruin the chemistry already in place.

No for Sacramento also, because they get another player who has a negative value in Ilyasova...and Collison has been great for them running the offense.

For OKC, they can get more polished interior scorers than Kanter

Lastly, Trevor Booker is a good enough backup for Favors...but Middleton as a backup for Hayward is pretty good so there's that

As a buck fan no way! I'm not interested in giving Middleton I see him as a core piece but on top of him Henson, Ilyasova AND knight for what? Perk, Collison and Stauskas. We're getting robbed.

No interest for MIL, Middleton absolutely needs to be kept, he's a great fit on this team and I have a hard time seeing stauskas being better than him.

Also Collison doesn't fit on this team, too small, not good enough for Kidds defense.

Yep beyond dreadful for Milwaukee.

Just because some Milwaukee fans don't like Knight doesn't mean he has negative trade value, then Middleton and Henson to boot? All for Nik Stauskas who looks to be a super bust. Just a disrespectful trade offer to be honest. Come on man

Middleton, Henson, Knight and Ersan for Stauskas, Collison and Perkins? Yeah, no saving this deal.

Middleton >>>> Stauskas
Knight = Collison
Ersan < Perkins
Henson >>>>>> Nothing

How does Knight = Collison?

Also, are you strictly giving Perkins to edge over Ers due to being an expiring contract?


P.S. You are really undervaluing Nothing!

The Bucks are under the cap now, and will be next year, I don't think they really need money for the Sanders' buyout.

The Knight/Collison thing needs to be switched out. Collison fits here. Bucks fans like Knight
