Personally, I like Kamm's idea of a Turner trade as a precursor to a KP for Siakam trade. Turner/Siakam/Bullock/Luka/Brunson would be SALTY.
Absolutely, if we could get someone like Turner without including DFS then I'm all for it. If a miracle falls into our lap then by all means. As for Turner's value, we seem to disagree and that's perfectly ok. I think Turner is a perfect fit, but if you don't, at least not enough to include DFS in a deal, that's ok too.
I think we all more or less agree on the general roster makeup we should be seeking, which is playmakers Luka and Brunson surrounded by versatile, athletic wings that can defend and hit 3s, and a rim running, defensive anchor big. It seems the disagreement is on how we get there. I think Turner would check that last box, and I think even if we had to trade DFS, we'd still have some good wings in Bullock, S Brown, Green, Frank, and THJ I guess to finish out the season and then we could focus on picking up another wing in the offseason with the MLE. If we could pull off a trade of KP for Siakam then all the better. I'd definitely be open to hear what you think would be some realistic trade alternatives though.
Except that none of our other wings can play the DFS role. That's the disconnect.
Not very astute ^^^^
