Giannis for Morant, Edey, picks 

Post#1 » by durantbird » Thu Dec 5, 2024 6:27 am

Bucks get Ja Morant, Zach Edey, 25 27 29 FRPs
Memphis get Giannis

Bucks continue with trading Lillard, Lopez and Middleton if there are buyers. Lillard possibly to Miami?

Bucks restart with a younger core and a potential superstar if maintained correctly. Edey is a nice addition plus first round picks.

Memphis have enough promising talent to be motivated to get Giannis. JJJ and Bane are great fits, GG Jackson, Smart, Wells, Vince Williams provide additional depth. (Bucks may demand some of those names too)

Likely no from both teams for multiple reason but I’ll list the main one.
Giannis would want to play with Ja and Vice Versa.

Would make a helluva lot more sense for both teams with JJJ instead of Morant.

Bundling two paint-scorers together, what could get wrong

Should both players want a change of scenery, the straight swap would definitely make sense. 4FRPs as a value gap is a joke.
