We send off JB to NY and take back our 2023 and allow them to dump Walker to us (this helps get them space this summer). They also get expiring Willie to help with LT exposure.
We then send off THJ, DFS our 2022 first and our 2024 first for Simmons and Korkmaz (who became legal to trade today). That gets Philly closer to the kind of haul they've been looking for. From our standpoint, it is THJ, DFS, Brunson and one pick (since trading JB is the thing that allows us to give Philly multiple picks).
One of the big objections of sending JB to Philly is the small guys they already have in their back-court in Maxey and Curry. Sending JB to NY for our pick fixes that. Philly doesn't really need our picks. There would need to be something else out there that allowed them to convert picks into win-now guys.
Maybe like Frank's deal. Keep him two years and you have EB rights.
I was actually checking salaries on another site on your JB to NYK idea for our 23FRP back. Had the same Idea of adding WCS for Walker when the Willy Chip was waved news broke.
Looks like Nico just talked Cuban into dumping salary to make the team better. And yes, Chriss is the right choice right now this season as our back-up C. So, maybe he can convince Cuban that adding picks is the correct path then adding LT or worse - avoiding flight risk (Dan's words).
Maybe things are starting to change in Mav's land?
