3 Team Trade

With Ayton looking desperate to leave, and many teams looking to retool, there’s a host of move the 3 teams I’ve included could make, however, this trade is simple and makes sense for all parties.

Pacers

They tried for Ayton in the summer, and now they could give him a perfect home for real. Ayton would get the touches he desperately wants, and him and Tyreese could be a deadly duo. Ayton in the pick and role with Halliburton’s play making and 3 point scoring could be an incredible combo. I think they’d both elevate each others numbers drastically, and make the pacers a far strong team than they were this year.

Cavs

The Cavs really disappointed for me in the playoffs, not really because they lost but more because of the worrying areas of their future - they have no picks, minimal assets and are kinda locked into the team they already have. As much as I love Jarrett Allen, he is the most expendable good asset they have. This trade doesn’t change anything massively, but Myles Turner would give the Cavs better spacing, whilst maintaining their elite interior defence. The Cavs lack players who can actually defend and shoot 3s and alongside Evan Mobley, and his elite rebounding, Turner would be a fantastic complementary piece for this team. I think if they made this move, and then went out in FA and got Bruce Brown, they Cavs would have made some excellent steps.

Suns

Ayton is so whiney, and they just got embarrassed. This trade probably gives them the most humble, and loveable guy in the league…What’s more important is that he’d be a like-for-like replacement and would provide the same levels of rebounding and interior defence that Ayton did. I also gave them TJ McConnell who is quietly a player I really like - incredibly efficient, improving his 3pt shot and someone who genuinely could relieve minutes of CP3. Now, there are rumours of CP3 getting traded but who actually would want him. I’d try to trade Cam Payne following this trade, and use him likely to get some better front court depth.
