Giannis + Lillard for Maxey, Grimes (S&T), McCain, picks 

Post#1 » by Dan Verze » Tue May 13, 2025 10:47 am

Does not that make sense for both teams?

PHI trades: Maxey, Grimes (S&T), McCain, Oubre (exp), Drummond (exp), Gordon (exp), picks

MIL trades: Giannis, Lillard


PHI will play a Point Guard (later Dame), Edgecomb or Bailey, George, Edwards, Giannis (later Embiid, Greek at 4), and MIL will re-tool with young player but no full tank because of missing picks.

Absolutely not. Bucks aren’t trading Giannis and Dame for Maxey McCain and spare parts. No interesr whatsoever

This isn't close to be legal under the CBA.

The audacity to think 76ers would get to keep the 3rd pick in a Giannis trade.

No thanks from Philadelphia.

Dame, George, Embiid and Giannis?

How many ACLs are we getting next season?

TBF to the OP on that front, with the S&T that pick cannot be included. Now you could just pick a player and then include him knowing Bailey or Edgecombe, Bucks would like to have, but the pick couldn't be part of it.

But its also not legal with the apron issues and if you are going to propose something this big, you've got to figure that out. So locking this. OP can report if he can figure a path forward.
