Which team can create a package big enough for Milwaukee (young player with star potential, picks,...) and become an instant contender? I see the following:
- OKC, if they don't at least make the finals. They have a number of ways to do it. One of Chet or Williams and whatever else is needed. I don't think anyone can offer anywhere near better package. That team would be super scary, potential dinasty
- San Antonio for Vassel, Black and picks. Wemby, Gainnis and Fox would be instant contender assuming Wemby can stay healthy
- Houston could make a good offer, but I don't see the fit (not enough shooting already), same for Orlando
Big market teams don't really have assets for a player of such caliber. Miami could be the closest, but Hero is good but not great. Unless they win #1 pick, of course.
Any team with a really good player over 30 with a first round pick is going to be interested
You can never rule out a destination city like Miami. There offer seems light. I also wouldn't rule out a good run franchise in a desirable market, so add the Clippers too (yeah the Clippers are well run). There offer would appear to be light as well though.
I am pretty confident I know one team that would go really hard and that is Toronto.
