    I'd trade Brooks and one of Tari/Bari for Brown. His contract sucks but the cap is going up and he's locked up for his prime at what will be less than the new super max deals in a few years. His contract expires when Alpie's does and a year after Jalen would get his next extension. Timeline wise it makes a lot of sense because he will be making the big max when while guys like Sengun/Green/Amen will be making the smaller maxes or less.

    A lineup of Amen/Green/Brown/Bari/Sengun would be fantastic defensively and everyone in that lineup can drop 20+ in any given night.

    since luka now gone shai tatum booker cade and franz the only max players worth trading substantial assets for and that only if price is right

    otherwise continue on with what we got and make trades and signings that make us better

    durant even less trade value than tatum and booker

    front office should be focused on acquiring another superstar kid like cooper flagg darryn peterson and improving our top 8 players by merging them in trade and using free agency to upgrade the rotation

    Won't help much. The only move that helps us is a trade for KD.

    Someone who buys a $2M Bugatti Veyron isn't at all worried about how much they spend on the gas it takes to operate it.
