Why Each Team Does This:

Atlanta Hawks: The hawks backcourt has always been bad defensively and with Bogdanovic going to be a free agent next offseason it would be better to move him then to pay him since they still have to resign Murray and Sadiq Bey. In this trade they get that defensive energy guy off the bench and two seconds for Bogdanovic.

Brooklyn Nets: As a rebuilding team their best thing to do now is flip assets and that's what they do with this trade. They get a first round pick for Dinwiddie and another flippable player who could possibly net you another first or even a couple of seconds.

Los Angelos Clippers: They do not lose a lot to add a player they have really needed throughout the whole Leonard and George tenure. That sort of player is a game manager and Lowry can bring that. A couple more positives are Lowry is friends with multiple people on the roster and close with the team's head coach. They lose two forwards but Covington barely gets playing time and a player who they are looking to replace in the starting lineup.

Toronto Raptors: This trade is if the raptors want to hit a full rebuild which seems reasonable. It would also include some pick swaps with the raptors getting the better pick. Vanvleet needs to be paid and I dont believe they should pay him since he's gonna be thirty next season and they aren't really close to a championship squad. Anunoby's gonna ask for a lot of money or move on since he wants more involvement in the offense. Moving Siakam frees up a lot offensively for Anunoby and helps Barnes get reps as the number one guy. They also get their guard in the future with Herro and a young guy with a lot of potential in Jovic.

Miami Heat: This season shows that the heat need a offseason shakeup whether that be going all in on Jimmy and Bam or trading Jimmy and doing a retooling. This shakeup is exactly what the heat need. Spencer Dinwiddie is a nice point guard to replace Lowry with. Dinwiddie has size to fit into the heats switch everything defense, he can playmake, and he can hit shots. Robert Covington is the perfect PJ Tucker replacement and a perfect player next to bam. He can grab boards, shoot from the three, and switch on everything on defense. Siakam would be the best 2nd option the heat have had in this Jimmy Butler era and even after the Jimmy Butler era a backcourt of Siakam and Bam to build off of would be amazing. Bogdanovic would bring the heat a much needed scorer of the bench who has shown he can produce in the playoffs. Cory Joseph is an amazing backup PG who can set players up with his passes or even shoot off of catch and shoot.

Potential Miami Heat Lineup:

PG: Dinwiddie/ Joseph SG: Butler/ Bogdanovic SF: Covington/ Martin/ Bogdanovic PF: Siakam/ Martin C: Adebayo/ Yurtseven
