Memphis:

• JJJ folded under pressure this playoffs again and even if he makes all-nba I don’t see Memphis offering him a super max —> this makes next year his contract year

• Randle is a more reliable source of scoring and his gravity would help Ja and Bane out a lot

• they also get the #17 pick and a pick next year that would help facilitate an even bigger trade down the line

Ja/Bane/Williams/Randle/Edey

Knicks:

• The Knicks front office love OG but I don’t see them decline this deal if offered —> JJJs fit next to KAT is just too perfect and getting a reliable shooter like Donte back would help out a ton, Mikal playing in his natural position would be a + too

• Knicks don’t rely on JJJ to be a 20 PPG scorer because they have Brunson, KAT and Mikal

• JJJ would be playing back home he might be willing to take the regular max next year and even if not the Knicks would have bird rights

• I would try to find a trade for McBride to get a better backup PG too and even Robinson becomes expandable with KAT and JJJ on the roster

Brunson/DiVincenzo/Bridges/JJJ/KAT Payne/McBride/Hart/Robinson

Suns:

• KD is 100% gone and they need to try to make the most out of KDs deal that is in his last contract year

• OG, Dillingham and Dadiet give them players to stay competitive for the next couple of seasons while also getting young players for the future

• if they manage to move Beal alongside the 3 picks they received from Utah they might get a competitive team for the next 3-4 years

Dillingham/Booker/Dunn/Anunoby/Richards Beal/Allen/Royce/Oso/Huff

Timberwolves:

• this trade only happens if they don’t make the WCF or if they think that Randle won’t be enough to get them into the finals

• its basically just the KAT package + their 31’ FRP and they’d have enough money to retain Naz Reid

• idk if Kolek is good enough for backup PG minutes but it’s better to have another PG on the roster than not

Conley/Edwards/McDaniels/KD/Gobert Kolek/NAW/Shannon/Naz Reid
