This would make tanking so much easier, you'd get out from under Markkanen's deal, you'd then have an expiring Lillard next year you could move for players/picks. It's imperative that you get a top 8 pick in a loaded draft and this would ensure it


I agree with the sentiment but think Markkanen is more valuable than a 1st and really bad salary. I’d instead try and use sexton, Collins and clarkson.


I only want to trade Markk for a really good piece, such as a potential foundational player, e.g. pick #2/Harper.
