At least not without giving up pieces which we potentially have an abundance of.

We are in a precarious position. Healing from injuries made us a .500 team on paper but I think the position that GM's are going to take is that injuries are just part of a season and we are unmistakably the 6th worse in the league.

The pieces we would like move after acquiring Wemby is WCJ / Bol bol / G Harris at the very least. As long as we have Franz I do not see us parting with Mo which just is what it is in my brain so long as Mo comes off the bench as he should for the remainder of his career.

The irony is I do not see us doing this right away if at all.


Completely agree with this post. I would try to move the 12th pick and WCJ to get higher in the draft.

Would you do this trade:

Orlando Gets: Spurs' NO.1 pick

San Antonio gets: Paolo, Suggs and 6th plus 11th pick from 2023

Would you do it?

I'd think about it for a second. Then I would smash that button.

My package for Wembanyama: Den pick, Bol, Chuma, G.Harris, MCW

Where is that Holmgren guy? There will be Wemba soon probably.

Hasheem Thabeet = Wembanyama

Paolo is the greatest prospect since Lebron not that tall french frie..

Reporters have said Orlando Magic can make a gigantic offer even without giving up Paolo or Franz for an All Star or Super Star.

I wonder what is the price for Wembanyama.

OMD has proposed literally the same trade offer for NO.1 pick. Suggs+Paolo+6th and 11th pick. I think that is reasonable

There's no way I give up MCW in a Wembanyama deal.
