Combining the KD rumor and Brooklyn trading up rumor in one:

Brooklyn out: CamJ, 19, 36
Brooklyn in: Barrett, Howard, Dieng, 9

Toronto out: Ingram, Barrett, 9
Toronto in: Durant

OKC out: Joe, Dieng, 15
OKC in: CamJ, 36

Orlando out: Howard, Bitadze
Orlando in: Joe

Phoenix trade: KD
Phoenix receive: Ingram, Bitadze, 15, 19

Why for Brooklyn: consolidate for another lotto pick
Why for Toronto: get a big fish, free up MLE to address back up C
Why for OKC: upgrade forward rotation
Why for Orlando: upgrade shooting
Why for Phoenix: get a C, replacement all star caliber wing and some picks for cheap depth

I feel like Phoenix gets too good of a deal but wasn't sure whom they should send back value to...

OKC would be my biggest question mark here. No major value issues anywhere that I can see. They just seem the least likely to play their part for me. Do they see Johnson as enough of an upgrade to spend on? IDK.

yea i got my idea from rumors/okc fan interest back around TDL

If OKC win it all though they might not want to rock the boat as you said

That's a trade that I would be OK doing it for the Suns. A borderline All-Star SF, a decent starting C in his prime and two picks in the late teens.

Fair value for every team involved IMO.

Yes, from Orlando. Perfect fit/player/contract. It will suck to lose Goga as he’s often undervalued around these parts, but he would be a tremendous addition to Phoenix.
