someone told me earlier today what stupid was, they said, "that'd be like trading Wemby for Mitchell Robinson." So I wanted to see if we could make it work.

So forget everyone else for the moment, any chance IN HELL the Thunder do this? Maybe, if they're convinced Giannis would bring them championships they otherwise wouldn't win. Chet and J Will is so wild though. Alas, you don't get Giannis without paying the price.

and if the Thunder are actually crazy enough to do this for Giannis, does that mean the Knicks do it? To land Wemby they must...

And how drunk on Chet / Jalen Williams / Herb would the Spurs have to be to do this? What if they all but knew Cooper Flagg was behind one of those picks. Would they still need to magically get someone like Dyson Daniels in the mix too?

Which brings us to the Bucks... as far as rebuilds go, losing Giannis is always going to hurt, but they could do worse than landing big KAT. Which would conveniently free them up to be able to deal Brook Lopez before his return value diminishes. Then Dort and Joe are both solid additions with good trade value, would be good to keep or trade.

And lastly, how good would the Knicks be with Wemby and Zion? I think beside Brunson and Wemby, Zion would actually do well in NY. They'd still have OG, Bridges, and Hart. I think they'd pass the Magic overnight for 3rd best team in the East, even if the standings say they already are, pretty sure I just heard they're 0-8 or something vs. the top 4 teams in the East at the moment. This could change that.
