It's fascinating watching TNT personality post game last night talk about a 3 team trade with Durant going to the Warriors and Draymond to the Suns then they ask her who goes to the Heat and she says Bradley Beal. These people get paid millions to spew out non sense.

If Jovic and Ware are on the table, I'd rather send Durant to you guys. You'd still have J³, Herro and Bam.

Again they aren't.

Then it has to be Wiggins coming here for Butler-if you guys are still involved of course.

Also, and this is of course from a Suns fan vantage but I think Riley would move both of those kids you guys have if it means you jump up to Boston/NYC levels in the east. Which Durant would do for you. JMO....

If the Miami, Phoenix, and Golden State big trade happens, I do wonder what the other teams will be included. They could add 1 to 4 more teams to offload some salary and possibly extract some draft assets. The framework is there to get the trade done, now it's about what type of draft assets and savings can be created for Phoenix and Miami to end up with. This type of trade could go past the deadline as long as the NBA knows the framework of the deal is done and the smaller moves are being worked out like the extra players moved for draft capital and money savings.

Bucks now in 1st apron and can aggregate. They’ll probably trade Portis and Connaughton but out on any major big player.

Going from Middleton to Kuzma will save Milwaukee ~13 million next season. Kuzma has a descending contract and can generate his own points (not exactly efficiently) if Giannis and Lillard are off the court.

Lmao fr.

Bucks watching 2023 tape of kuzma.

He has youth and more upside but kinda rough trade.

AJ Johnson is a 20 year former 23rd pick in the in the 2023 draft. Wizards traded for the upside

Nope, this puts them in position to be part of the trade, just a smaller part of the trade.

You think they can still get Jimmy? I mean I guess they could but they’d have to send us Lopez Portis and Pat

Butler? No, but they can be part of the trade taking on some talent while sending back say... a 2nd and cash savings sending back a lesser priced player(s).
