I've seen people propose Jaylen + more for Giannis on social media, but I'd still like to know what other teams are offering. I'm assuming the Spurs and Rockets won't go after him. Maybe the Knicks do if they don't reach the Finals, idk. But otherwise, is the best offer out there from Miami basically with Ware, Herro and picks?

I'd say the Knicks and Blazers are the best bets, and they could outbid us OR force the C's to send Jaylen Brown back. But otherwise, if there isn't a bidding war, I think you could get it done without Jaylen. We've seen disgruntled superstar players go for a lot less than expected and Giannis' age + injury history might add some intrigue. But I also think Giannis himself is done at MIL

Jaylen isn't happy getting 20 shots a game as it is, he wants to be the main guy.

You think he is going to be happy if we get Giannis and he moves to 3rd option?

Giannis's time in Milwaukee is over after all that locker room drama stirred by Doc Rivers and management.

But wow, Miami's package of Ware, Herro, and picks? Sounds meh lol. Give 'em Jaylen Brown straight up. Or, tell them to also throw in Myles Turner and the C's can throw in a couple more.

And why would we want Myles Turner? He?s getting paid $27m to do sweet FA. One of the worst contracts in the league. I?m sure.The only image people we can trade for him would be Hauser and another $17m of contracts when most of our remaining contracts are $2.7m vet mins. We would lose half our roster on a player who is even worse than Vucevic.

Yeah, I doubt that would work. Feel like Giannis and JB personalities would clash as well, TBH. Two massive egos.

I?m all set on Turner as well. Guy has no motor.

Not to mention that those 3 contracts alone would be $172M or so.  This premise is pretty much impossible.  In order to get Giannis, Brown would have to go.  I do not believe that there would be any realistic alternative.

1. White + Hauser + 2 future first round picks for Sabonis

2. Sign Timelord to the full MLE

If Garza is fine staying as the 4th big, keep him on vet. minimum otherwise he goes. Baylor and Hugo get bigger roles and more minutes next year.

Frontcourt: Sabonis/Queta/Timelord/Garza/Amari Williams

Thoughts?

I'm not giving that up for Sabonis.  he's not going to help the defense here and losing White will worsen it.  we don't have a plethora of picks to just be throwing them around in trades and certainly not in ones that significantly improve the team.

Also, getting Timelord with Sabonis is rather pointless if you're keeping Q and Garza

Turner is uninspiring, but we can actually just absorb him into our Simons TPE without sending back anything. It'd put us well into the tax, but it might serve as an incentive to make MIL choose our deal over the many others that will be out there. Turner does also fill a need, can defend the rim, and shoot 3s, so it's not a useless trade from our side.

We definitely should not be giving up anything to get him, though, In fact, it should lower the price drastically, meaning we send out no picks in a Jaylen deal.

Yeah at least Turner has more playoff experience than Garza and those 3rd or 4th string bigs. Better than Vuc. Also helps keep Milwaukee happy and also the reason why Giannis was pushing for Turner last year. Turner would fill in a position of need for the C's. He'd be starting if he was here while Queta comes off the bench.

Get both Giannis and Turner for JB and call it a day.

Guess it wouldn?t be the worst thing in the world.

I've yet to see a anyone actually report he's unhappy with his role. I've seen many speculate that he is, but he's never aid it as far as I can tell.
