Is Giannis Trade Talk Totally Baseless? 

Post#1 » by Hatrick Ewing » Tue Nov 5, 2024 7:10 am

Would be hard to believe we get him, seems like other teams would have better packages, but is there any merit to this at all?

Marc Stein is as plugged in as shams . There’s legit interest in Giannis.

Theres always going to be interest in a Giannis level player but I can’t imagine a world where OKC doesn’t put a package together to get him. They have the most and best assets for Giannis and I think they take that risk if he does ask for a trade.

Giannis has a no trade clause. He isn’t going to OKC.

Giannis is not what he used to be. The typical nba culture got him. He is going to either a glamorous or at least a big city franchise. My prediction is:

1. Warriors - 25%
2. Heat - 20%
3. Knicks - 15%
4. Lakers - 10%
----
1. Dallas - 10%
2. Phoenix - 10%
3. Houston - 5%
4. Nets/Clippers - 5%

It's baseless, the Warriors would move heaven and earth to get him and he's on record wanting to play with Steph, someone he wouldn't need to screen for.
