Final Pre-Draft Forum Poll: Trade For Giannis Or Build Around The Jays?

[Who]

It's picking up steam again on Twitter. Tonight or tomorrow? Feels like Miami, Milwaukee and a 3rd team that takes on Herro and helps to facilitate (Detroit maybe)

It sounds like the framework could be:

Detroit: Herro
Miami: Giannis
Milwaukee: Ware, Jacquez, Jovic, #13, 1 future FRP from Miami, assets from Detroit

Question is, what Detroit gives up in the deal to acquire Herro. LeVert or Stewart and a first?

I was thinking Ron Holland & a 1st. Plus whatever cap filler.

Miami will have Bam, Giannis, Powell and Wiggins.. Not a great team with no PG or bench..play in team to me

I see it as a 50 win team. Not a real contender.

Google's AI says yes absolutely trade Brown for Giannis.
Giannis brings post-inside presence and takes the double team heat off Tatum, who becomes another Paul Pierce.
Stevens knows this, which is why he will pull the string.

That?s a horrible return for Milwaukee considering Giannis is a top 5 player. Role players and a couple of firsts.

If I?m Milwaukee I?d rather get JB and flip him to Houston for Sengun and smith Jr. Can at least build around those two. Rockets are trying to win now with KD.

Houston: Vanvleet, Thompson, Brown, Durant, Adams. That?s a contender

If I'm the Bucks I take Brown and play it out this year. I don't get the rebuild talk just go with

Starters: Rollins, Brown, Kuz, Portis, Turner
Bench: Trent, Green, Porter, Sims

That's very much still a playoff team.

Bob Ryan on the Giannis vs Jaylen trade

(1) No reason to get rid of Jaylen
(2) No reason to trust Giannis' health

He thinks Giannis' best days are behind him. I think so too.

Edit: I am listening to the rest of that youtube video / podcast. A 30min video with Bob Ryan, Jeff Goodman & Gary Tanguay.

(1) They start debating whether Tatum & Jaylen have run their course. Whether they are good enough leaders.

(2) Complaining that they do not interact enough on the court. They do not make the game easier for one another often enough. They do not make enough passes to one another that lead to easier baskets. Although I do feel they are underestimating how much they help each other as defenders & rebounders but offensively they have a point.

(3) Saying Jrue & Horford were the leaders of the Championship team and they need veteran leadership because the Jays cannot lead.

(4) Speak glowingly about Brunson. Some on Towns.

I will be shocked if Brown is traded. Brad it going to have to find a different path to add the pieces this team needs.
