New TW SL:

Monk Edwards DeRozan or Jaden McDaniels Cameron Johnson Naz

Bench Unit:

Dillingham NAW Terence Shannon? Jaden McDaniels or DeRozan Mitch Rob

Beast offensive starting lineup with an amazing defensive bench. NAW, Mitch, and McDaniels off the bench is a crazy defensive backup squad. In the SL Monk, Cam Johnson, DeRozan, Naz, and Ant can all shoot the three ball very well and score at a high level. The spacing would be amazing for Ant who could find easier buckets. Defensively if there are troubles just bring in McDaniels at SF or PF. If that’s not enough bring Mitch in for Naz and NAW in for Monk and move Ant to the PG position. So it would look like this:

Ant NAW Cameron Johnson or DeRozan McDaniels Mitch Rob…

Thoughts?…

Our pick from the wizards is projected to be an early/mid second rounder so below are my favorite options not in any order:

Ryan Kalkbringer: A center out of Crieghton who is a senior this season. He is top 5 in BPG for the NCAA and a very efficient scorer and good rebounder. He shows flashes of a decent jump shot and he could be our Lopez replacement. His main problem is similar to Lopez and that is speed. Ryan is pretty slow but other than that he is NBA ready.

Mohammed Faye: A 20 year old unheard of prospect from Senegal who basketball in Italy. He is an inhuman athlete standing at 6,10 with an insane 7,5 wingspan. At 225 pounds he is extremely mobile and quick. He’s a natural shot blocker and has really solid rebounding skills. He can guard the perimeter and works well through the PnR. He is very raw offensively but is averaging 14 PPG against grown men as a recently turned 20 year old so he has some offensive potential. The Jump shot is a big area that needs some work but I’m v…

New Bucks SL:

Dame Mann FA (probably Tauren Prince again) Giannis Bam

The big three of Giannis and Bam brings a new level to Milwaukee’s offense and defense. Bam and Giannis would be the best front court duo in the league. Mann is also a decent defender next to Dame who can make threes at a respectable rate. Than it’s just a matter of who to bring in at the SF position. TP is a solid option with great three point shooting and solid role player abilities….

New Nets SL:

Monk Daniels Cameron Johnson Giannis Zubac

Nets say F the rebuild and decide to go all in this offseason. They would still have more cap space after this trade so they could sign some bench guys….

New Bucks SL:

Doujante KCP Dyson Daniels Jalen Johnson Jaren Jackson Jr

Crazy defensive lineup with solid offense. JJJ as the main offensive option with Jalen Johnson and Doujante Murray also being big parts of the offense. KCP can knock down open looks brought by the big three and Dyson Daniels can also score decently. On defense there are no weaknesses and JJJ plus Dyson Daniels will demolish teams and create havoc. When the worst defender on your starting lineup is KCP you are gonna lock teams up….

New Bucks SL:

Topic or Reed Jalen Green Benedict Mathurin JDub Hartenstine

Not a bad offensive team. Defense might be atrocious at times but the offense is really solid. JDub and Green as the main options with Mathurin as the third option….

New Rockets SL:

Dame Dillon Brooks Amen Thompson Jabari Smith Jr Sengun

Tari Eason as the sixth man

I like this team a lot with Dame as the main offensive option alongside Sengun. Defensively this team doesn’t get a lot worse and if they need more defense they can just sub Eason in for Jabari. This trade would only happen for the Bucks if Giannis had already left or demanded out….

New Bucks SL:

Doujante Murray (perimeter D and third offensive option) Tyler Herro (Main offensive option) Cameron Johnson (third/fourth offensive option and shooter) Jalen Johnson (2nd offensive option and well-rounded player) Onyeka Okongwu (defensive anchor and rebounder)

Bench:

Ryan Rollins, KPJ, or a FA (Maybe Melton or Shroeder) AJ Green, Ajax, or a FA (Maybe GTG again) Chris Livingston or a FA (Probably Taurean Prince) Kuzma or a FA (Maybe Chris Boucher) Tyler Smith or a FA (probably Lopez)…

New Bucks SL:

Lamelo Josh Okogie or AJ Green Miles Bridges Kyle Kuzma Giannis

Could be interesting….

New Bucks SL:

Harden Christie Cameron Johnson Giannis Zubac

Bench Unit:

KPJ/Rollins AJ Green/Ajax Naji Marshall/Chris Livingston Tyler smith/FA (probably Chris Boucher) FA (probably Lopez, Jericho Sims, or Precious Achichiua)…

Suns are now asking for three first round picks and a solid young prospect for what will be 37 year old KD next season.

Mikal Bridges netted 5 first round picks and a first round pick swap. Keep in mind all of these picks where unprotected minus one.

Paul George netted 5 solid firsts (on of which became Jdub), 2 first round pick swaps, Danilo Gallinari (who was actually a somewhat elite role player at the time), and the infamous sending of Shai G Alexander. Keep in mind all of these picks where unprotected.

No defense Harden netted 4 really good firsts and 4 first round pick swaps all unprotected.

Alright I’ve said enough. Keeping these trades in mind helps me gauge Giannis’s true value. Now you can argue me about this but in my opinion Giannis is the best two-way player in the league right now. Giannis is always a dominant force and the best interior scorer in the league. Giannis is one of the top 10 rebounders in the league and he can grab 15 a night if he wants to. Giannis is …

New Bucks SL:

TBD/FA (Maybe Schroeder, Melton, or Tyus Jones) Herro KD Kuzma Giannis…

New Bucks SL:

Doujante (18ppg) Norman Powell (24ppg) Wiggins (17ppg) Cameron Johnson (19.5 ppg) Giannis (31 ppg)

The lowest scorer on the team is averaging over 17 PPG this season lol. This team would be broken if the chemistry clicked. Doujante, Powell, Wiggins, and Cam Johnson can all knock down threes around Giannis the interior force. Doujante and Giannis are both great facilitators as well. Defensively Giannis is locking down opposing centers, Wiggins locks down the best forward, and Doujante takes on tough guard matchups which he can do pretty well with. Powell and Cam Johnson can hold their own defensively so they arn’t really liabilities….

Booker AJ Green Wiggins Cameron Johnson Giannis

Insane lineup with Wiggins locking down the best forward of the opposing team and Giannis locking down the opposing center. AJ Green, Booker, and Cam Johnson can all hold their own defensively too. Offensively this lineup is a beast with Giannis and Booker being an insane duo complemented by Cameron Johnson as the third option and Wiggins as the fourth option. AJ Green will benefit from all of these players as he will take the worst defenders and get less attention so that will lead to wide open threes and combined with his quick release that would be dangerously good….

New Bucks SL:

Coby Ayo Wiggins Cameron Johnson Giannis

Kuzma as the 6man and main forward off the bench!…

New Bucks SL:

Dame Ayo Bridges Giannis Myles Turner

Backup Unit:

KPJ / Rollins AJ Green / Ajax Livingston / FA (probably Tauren Prince on a vet min or Bogdan Bogdanovic) Tyler Smith / FA (probably Chris Boucher on a vet min) FA (probably Lopez on a retirement deal, 1 year 3-6 million, precious achichiua or Day Ron sharpe is also an option)…

New Bucks SL:

Dame AJ Green, KPJ, or FA Cameron Johnson Kuzma Giannis…

New Cavs SL:

Coby Spida Hunter Freak Allen Insane starting lineup on both ends and the twin towers of Giannis and Allen would be insane!

New Bucks SL:

Garland Herro Bridges Kuzma Mobley Well-Balanced starting lineup with perimeter firepower in Garland, Herro, and Bridges while Mobley is an interior force and Kuzma has solid driving skills. solid defense and the only weakness is being slightly undersized….

Note: Bulls receive a 2028 and 2030 first round pick swap from the cavs along with the three seconds.

New Cavs SL:

Coby Donovan Deandre Hunter Giannis Allen…
