If we miss out on KD and he goes to Minny it should signal the official start to the Anthony Edwards acquisition campaign. They will void themselves of young assets and give themselves a finite window. Time to start building the war chest.

You mean if KD ends up on the Wolves becasue he would have had reservations about the Heat front office and let Edwards know to stay away aswell. That would not be in our favor

What they really mean is that they can point to a track record where if you can perform as a top 10 player in the NBA, you can make it to the finals at an equal or higher rate than any other top 10 player in the NBA.

And that we'll find you more Strus' martin's Vincent's and they'll definitely give you the supplementation that you need to get it done as a top 10 player.

As a consistent top 10 player? Yes probably.

They should be script writers for modern day sales pitch manuals eh

If they get him, you can celebrate with a cupcake

IF KD joins the Wolves and fails to deliver the ring and Minnesota is forced to trade AE, why would he listen to the old guy? Edwards already has a huge respect for Spo. And this is a franchise w a proven success. Not saying we'll have a good chance of getting him, but KD wouldn't be a influencer on Edwards future decisions. By that time he might call it a career

I guess you could also say the same thing about KD listening to Butler right? KD has respect for Spo and Bam from team USA.

Ant Hali Brunson Mitchell over Tatum is WILD and I don’t even like Tatum. That list is garbage

A player tearing their achilles and being out an entire season and who knows how he will play when's hes back shouldn't move him down even a little?

Tatum was always in the top 5 range until the recent update and hali jumped quite a bit, deservedly so.

Suns also trying to move Grayson and Royce.

The Phoenix Suns could also look to move guard Grayson Allen or forward Royce O'Neale as part of a Kevin Durant. The Suns are exploring ways to reduce their luxury tax bill, and possibly to dip below the second apron. Moving Allen or O'Neale could further those goals.

Phoenix can't aggregate another salary with Durant's as part of an outgoing trade package, due to being over the second apron. If the end result of the trade sees Phoenix go below the second apron, or if a proposed trade works without aggregating salaries, the Suns could include Allen or O'Neale as part of the outgoing package in a Durant deal.

Tatum has literally been on the all-NBA for ~5 straight years and been in the top 6 in the MVP vote for 5 straight years and people still try to find excuses to pull him down. Insane.

Lakers twitter really wants Wiggins. Hachimura and Vincent for Wiggs is a good deal if things fall through for Durant or better yet. If we trade Jovic and keep Wiggins out of deal we can make this separate deal and have Hachimura take Jovic’s place and have Vincent back as our starting PG with Mitchell.

Haliburton is very good, but overrated.

Yuk. Big pass on Hachimura/Vincent.

Really? Even if it opens up 30 mil more in cap space next year? Ok guess staying stuck with Wiggins.

You know, I legit forgot Andrew Wiggins was on this roster. Seriously doubt he's on there for long
