MIL trades: Kyle Kuzma, 2032 MIL 1st, cash
in: Terance Mann, Kelly Oubre, Andre Drummond, 2027 SAS 1st (1-16 protected, otherwise SAC + CHA 2nds), 2029 OKC 1st
Milwaukee uses a high variance asset to fix some of its depth issues. They can reevaluate a bit into the season and use the San Antonio and OKC firsts to help address another area of need. Mann is multipositional, Oubre gives them a starting 3, and Drummond gives some center depth.

Rollins - Mann - Oubre - Giannis - Turner
Anthony - KPJ - Prince - Portis - Drummond
KPJ - Trent - Green - Livingston - Thanasis

OKC trades: 2027 1st (lowest of OKC/DEN/LAC not conveyed to LAC, functionally, second lowest of these), 2027 SAS 1st (1-16 protected, otherwise SAC + CHA 2nds), 2029 OKC 1st
in: 2032 MIL 1st
OKC trades for a high-variance asset in the future.

BRK trades: Terance Mann
in: Kyle Kuzma, 2027 1st (lowest of OKC/DEN/LAC not conveyed to LAC, functionally, second lowest of these)
Brooklyn pays more on an annual basis but gets a first for doing so.

PHI trades: Kelly Oubre, Andre Drummond
in: cash
Philly opens up space to resign Grimes.

not bad for all

i don't like Oubre in Milwaukee, in addition Mann cost 15,5M, Drummond 5M, Oubre over than 8M
i think Milwaukee can't trade for them selling only Kuzma (21-22M)

if you put Oubre out of the trade, i thik all became better

So the Bucks trade Kuzma for another low I.Q. Player not very good player in Oubre?

Bucks dont have a depth issue

my opinion

Oubre out of the trade

Bucks
Kuzma, 1° 2032 (top 3 protected or 3 future second RP)
x
Mann, Drummond, 1° 2027 SAS or 1° 2029 OKC (Not both !)

Nets
Mann
x
Kuzma, 1° 2027 OKC/DEN/LAC

OKC
2 FRP (that FRP look like similar to "lottery protected" or lower)
x
1 FRP (top 3 protected)

PHI
Drummond
x
cash

**************

Nets: neither Kuzma and Mann are in the project, howevere they add FRP
OKC: spend two asset for one better asset
Phila: have money for Grimes

Bucks:
Mann and Drummond can help the team, they switch a distant FRP for a nearest FRP

Works in spotrac

I was working from feedback that Milwaukee needed an upgrade at small forward. Oubre isn't amazing, but he is better than Kuzma by quite a bit and in a simple role tends to do well.

I will keep searching for the right small forward.

What do you think of the bones of the idea, though, of

MIL trades: Kuzma, 2032 1st
in: starting SF, a 1st or two, some kind of rotation player at a position of need

I also disagree that the Bucks don't have a depth issue. They are pretty mediocre at the 1/2/3 positions and could use upgrades in all of them. 4/5 is kind of an embarrassment of riches, but I do think they could use one more competent player in the frontcourt in case of an injury.

It's not going to stick with anyone outside of Bucks fans, but we're fine with our guards. Jericho Sims is the 4th big and he's been a nice point of difference option who is cheap, which you want with all our money in PF/C. It really is just small forwards and probably just the one starter really given three guard lineups will make sense with a lot of probable combinations. Someone like RJ Barrett would be fine but I wouldn't be comfortable with the 32 pick for a just fine guy and I imagine Barrett hasn't been traded yet because the Raptors are still trying to sell him as a significant asset.

It probably just makes the most sense to wait and see what's up between the periods when the December guys can be traded around the league and the deadline.

Solid all around.

Earlier this summer, the Nets FO acted like they targeted Mann partially because he was born in the borough and plays with grit. But they seem satisfied now with their young guards, and would like another pick to move him.

What Aussie said above

Mann is just a guy...rather just give those mins to Trent/KPJ/Green
