Disclaimer this is a mock trade to test the value of players and is mainly framework not meant to be super realistic

Portland is probably the most controversial team in this trade considering they give up a lot but also they only give up 1 thing of major value and that’s a 2028 Milwaukee pick they manage to free up money in this trade they manage to add another star scorer to the team for 2 years and they overall don’t get worse at all they move off of old bad contracts for a top 20 player for the next 2 years for the expense of only one valuable asset

A potential new lineup being Dame Sharpe Deni KD Clingan plus elite depth piece like Camara Scoot and KD ther decent pieces plus they have money to spend as well

Phoenix is pretty obvious they get someone who fits better with Booker and free up over a million in cap space and overall improves them as a team

Boston is the primary team here getting the big man himself Giannis they also add Bobby Portis to add a good offensive big man and allow them to spend money elsewhere and not on Vucevic

They do lose franchise piece Jaylen Brown as well as elite shooter Sam Hauser plus multiple firsts but this trade probably makes them the best team in the NBA so I’d say it’s worth it

A potential lineup DWhite Hugo/Baylor Tatum Giannis Bobby with elite depth pieces like Queta and Pritchard plus Walsh and Garza to add more depth

Houston is the primary facilitator of this Giannis trade as they give Milwaukee a potentially valuable Phoenix first and the ability to swap there eventual pick that conveys from the New Orleans swap for BKNs pick if it’s better so they give up a lot of value but also improve a lot

They swap KD for JB but lose a lot of there best draft capital pieces they also get shooting from Sam Hauser and get a good backup PG option as well for next year in KPJ

A potential lineup being Reed Amen JB JSJ Sengun with KPJ Capella Adams and other depth pieces and some money to spend

And now for the big one Milwaukee they do trade Giannis and commit to a rebuild but they get some solid pieces for that Jalen Green Yang Hanson and multiple firsts including there own 2028 first back and they would also trade Kuzma and Myles down the line as well maybe Kuzma for some bad contracts and a first and Myles potentially to a contender for a pick and salary filler so really they will end up with a lot more then just what’s seen in this trade

In the draft they would likely target Labaron Philon or Nate Ament at 10 and later potentially go after Amari Allen or Joshua Jefferson or even trade back for a future first or multiple more seconds

They would have multiple hypothetical lineups so I can’t confidently present one here

Lemme know you’re thoughts on this trade and who says no and why
