Thoughts? Go check out cheapseats73 credit to him for this one.
Raptors upgrade on Centre adding defensive rebounding and spacing while getting off Jak's contract without trading any assets, only a frp swap and two overpaid scorers for more than what they're worth. after riding it out with KAT Toronto will either succeed in pushing to a conference final or have huge cap space, win win. Moody another player raptors will love (scottie too).
Bucks finally trade Giannis and it's not the greatest deal, but it may be if his heart is set on New York and the bucks want to stay cheap. Jimmy gives the bucks financial leverage and the option to flip him to a contender by the deadline. RJ gives them the option to resign for however much money they want to as this team will be bad but not that bad and worth keeping as an asset. KPJ, Rollins, RJ, Jimmy/Portis, and Turner isn't horrible. The possibility of rekindling some value in Dick as well as all of new yorks picks isn't too bad either.
New York get their man Giannis to push for that championship for picks, KAT, and Josh Hart. Great deal and the cost of doing buisness. Just gotta eat Jak's contract although maybe he can do some hartenstein things?
Assuming the Kings draft Mikel Brown Jr, Monk is replaced with a cheaper younger similar player as well as finally getting their man Kuzma without giving up any picks. Either way if you don't like this from the Kings pov then the Kings probably do.
GSW get off two injured players for three great players who can push the team towards a late push for contention for Curry. Such a win for GSW without trading or acquiring picks either. The younger more healthy BI who can space out can take those ass podz minutes and run offense while Steph is on the bench. Trade also opens up the MLE. Monk and Hart give more depth at 2/3 and more reliability than Jimmy/Moody as well as a higher ceiling, no luxury tax and financial flexibility, and puts everyone on the same timeline contractually which gives about 160 mill cap space after the 27/28 season.
