Something around Booker for Trae Young?
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

KD should be the one to go if he’s willing. After playing 79 games and likely making all-NBA his value will never be higher. Are Miami’s picks locked up?

Miami probably can't trade for KD (or another big money guy and stay under the 2nd apron- which they'd need to do to accumulate salaries to match contracts.

Been brought up a few times in this thread. Why? Personally I think this one should have serious legs.

Booker has more value, so Hawks need to bridge the gap - and have assets to do just that.
