Where would u guys rank this one / would u do it ?
I dont think we would give up #9 since he's likely gone after a year.

I’m sorry but I’m holding firm on 3 FRPs in any trade. That’s where trade discussions start. They end with the actual players in the deal.

That is not a good package especially without a FRP.

Spurs or Houston

Those are just KD's preferred spots, his follow up tweet mentioned the whole 6-8 interested teams thing again

That is why we are also looking to move either Grayson or Royce.

I'd be happy to send him East to Miami if we can get Ware and some picks

Lets get it back to Suns 1st 2025, 2027, 2029

They can send whatever players they want with the 50m matching salaries if its 2 years or less

If they trade Green for a 1st to any team its essentially Green and 2 picks for Durant

Really not interested in what they've been offering so far player wise unless they are willing to start adding more future firsts (like ATL 27 or Dal 30)

I don't want him but realistically he is attractive to a "win now" player for front office and he would plug a gaping hole at C although his brick hands and age concern me.

I don’t see him as an attractive “win-now” player. He has never helped a team get better. He’s always just been that decent defensive center. He USE to be a great shot blocker. Those days are long gone. And his rebounding numbers have gone down. He looking like a player closer to retirement than someone who can impact a game defensively now. Unless he’s 2 feet away from the basket, he’s essentially useless. Wolves can keep him and his germ spreading lanky fingers.

Gobert has been one of the most impactful defenders in the game over the last 20 years, especially in the regular season. He is one of the more consistent floor raisers on the defensive end in the league, giving you a baseline on that end that is difficult to match by any single player beyond a select few.

Its fair if these things arent your priority in a deal, and he certainly has a number of warts. But lets not mischaracterize a generational defender as "that decent defensive center."

People here are going to be really disappointed when the actual trade packages comes in.

I'm sure the current Spurs package is just vassell/barnes/#14. Hopefully we don't cave and take it
