Good luck with that. Neither Atlanta nor Chicago need either of them and any proposal that puts them at the center of a deal that brings back an upgraded starter here isn't a serious proposal.
Pretty clearly Collins is an upgrade over Maxi. To me, that is the point of the trade. The nice thing about both Atlanta and Chicago is they are trying to take the leap into relevancy. So, they probably aren't a candidate for selling off good players for draft picks. So, then you get into what this looks like in terms of on-court contributions right now. Maxi has to be included in a deal for the other team's PF. I think DFS can contribute nicely to either team. Snell is a band aid to get us to the off season (or give Green more time to grow). I agree we would be a little shy at backup PF, but Collin's O is diverse enough to play with any of KP, Powell and WCS.
