Cam Cam at Milwaukee? 

Post#1 » by slos » Thu Feb 6, 2025 3:06 pm

Probably needs some third team to eat a minimum contract for some cash, but didn't bother since that's an easy part

Bucks in Johnson, Thomas

Nets in Lopez, Beauchamp, Baldwin, MIL 2031 FRP and SRP

Why Bucks? They complete their faster and more athletic transformation turning Midds and Brook into Johsnon and Kuzma while moving Giannis at C. They also add scoring from the bench with the other Cam.

Lillard......Thomas.....Rollins
Green.......Trent.......Connaughton
Johnson....Jackson.....Livingston
Kuzma......Prince.......Smith
Giannis.....Portis.......Sims

Why Nets? They get probably the best pick available the next few hours for two players that don't seem to fit their future plans.

This might be the most laughable trade ever. Hey Nets please give us your two best players for nothing.

Phone hangs up on them.

Wait, what did we do wrong here? Why don't they want a 50 year old Brook Lopez? He was a Net!

Oh, they want 2 1sts for Cam Johnson alone? Let's undercut their needs and give them a 2nd round pick instead!!! Yeah that's the spirit!

That’s an awful return for Brooklyn.

I think you re-route Brook to a team who can use him and get some extra value for Brooklyn. Also don't think the Bucks have any use for Cam Thomas and Nets fans overvalue him, so better to just leave him out.

Nets Out: Cam Johnson
Nets In: Kuminga, GP3, Looney, Bucks '31 1st

Nets fans will say they NEED 2 picks for Cam, but the '31 Bucks unprotected is much more valuable than an average 1st. I'm sure if they don't like the Bucks 1st, they can get two picks in the 20s from OKC.

GS Out: Kuminga, GP3, Looney
GS In: BroLo, Beauchamp

Trade depth for a stretch 5 who can still defend well. Hope they can get something half-decent on the buyout market.

Bucks Out: BroLo, Beauchamp, Bucks '31 1st
Bucks In: Cam Johnson

I think Giannis might ask out to either BK or CHI this off season. It seems like BK is better built for a move on the up if they land a Top 4 draft pick. If that is the case, this wouldn't make sense. I think they want to pair CamJo with Giannis, the new rookie, and Jalen Wilson, Cam Thomas, and Sharpe/Claxton. BK would need to sign a new PG in the off season as well... or keep DLO and tell him he needs to feed Giannis and crew before looking for his shot.
