Bryant,Hachimura,Smith,Bonga, 2021 1st, 2021 Pistons 2nd, 2023 (the Wizards keep the pick if in lottery and send it to Mavs) or otherwise 2025 1st. By 2025 Porzingis and Westbrook are broken and Beal is gone. I'd bet this would look like highway robbery in 12 months,but maybe Washington would be desperate enough to go into win now mode. With that war chest we can make a play for Lavine and sign a (defensive)centre to complement Bryant.
That makes 1 of you and me...It amazes when people think that picking up half the roster of rotation players from a sub .500 team and trading them for a 20-10 type of scorer just makes everyone better.
a) As much as I don't like that trade for the Mavs, I also don't Washington giving the Mavs multiple 1sts for KP as his current value stands.
b) If all those players are about to take off and this will look like a steal, don't you think that Washington's FO and coaching staff can see that also?
No way...not buying it. We'll just agree to disagree on that.
