This seems like the most realistic haul the bucks would get back if they don’t send Giannis to the warriors; multiple firsts from the future, some swaps probably, and definitely a future phx first, salary filled, and Reed. This trade would most be more fun as a three team deal sending Dame to the heat, and getting some future heat picks.

I know the report about The rockets not wanting to give up their young core to get Giannis but, Reed is more than likely available, he’s not gonna be able to develop in this situation, and this deal is only possible if both the bucks and rockets stay in their current position until the deadline and the rockets decide to go all in.

The rockets are in a super weird position though, you would think they would want to tank for Cooper Flagg but they’re actually doing super well so far T4 seed, a ample sample of games into the season, if they go all in, they have the veteran talent, draft capital, and pieces to all go in at the deadline.
