I don’t know if Memphis would actually sign up for that expensive of a group in real life.

And you need to add Konchar for vet mins to the OP I believe, think the OP would end up pushing them over the apron?

Value/fit everything else, sure. But that roster is really expensive next season and then JJJ needs a big raise.

Maybe an ideal that gets Memphis fans very upset, but I’d build it off Bane/Butler (value to your team) trust in Smart/Vincent/Pippen/etc.. have no tax issues for two years and keep your future assets out of it.

Seems like Memphis should be giving up more right? They're not giving up anything of value except maybe Aldama

Too good for the Heat and Pelicans IMO
1 1st to NOP is enough, Aladama should stay in Mem.
Defense wins draft lotteries!

On the court sure it could make sense but he takes the ball out of Ja’s hands and not sure he will ever fall in line with a pecking order.

Off the court we not paying Jimmy that type of money to be a malcontent that barely plays. Grizz have chosen to build internally and Jimmy is too much of a problem child for it to make sense for the Grizz value aside.

I'm not opposed to this for Miami. I like the idea of Adama, Bam, and Ware with Love as veteran help (unless he wants to move on to a contender - we need to move on from one player after this deal) and Ingram might be worth a good look with Bam and Herro.
