    Get Giannis and figure out the rest.

    Like sign Ty Jerome in FA and draft the shooter from Duke.

    If we get Cooper Flagg I wouldn't even trade it at all

    If they get 1-1 then draft Flagg/trade for Giannis and find a couple of shooters.

    If we are on the shortlist that means there is a chance we can get him without spending much.

    I do believe Sengun would be in the deal though but I actually wonder how teams would score with Amen and Giannis on the court.

    We better hope he doesn't go to the Spurs lol

    We don't have the pieces to pull that off, especially if Sengun’s still part of the equation. I’d really like to understand how you see those trades going down. What would that actually look like?

    Sure, Reed Sheppard and picks is at least twice as valuable. Ask @Bobbythegreat.

    We definitely have the players, salaries, and picks to make it work! Giannis is owed $57M next season...my Sleeper team who may try to get Giannis is OKC...if they don't make it to the Finals, I could see them trading their draft picks/Jalen Williams/Chet for Giannis

    Considering the MASSIVE gap in the pick quality it's way more than twice as valuable. I would also bet there are plenty of teams who would value reed over castle.

    Realistically Jalen + Tari + Cam + 4-5 picks would get us Giannis.

    Can also throw Reed in there somewhere. We can't trade Bari because we would desperately need shooting after this kind of trade. May also have to look at other minor deals to get 3-D players.

    FVV, Brooks, Jabari can be the shooters in the starting lineup. Sengun/Amen/Giannis we can stagger depending on different matchups.

    I would hate for him to pair up with Wemby as they just got Fox. I hope they keep him in the Eastern conference to be honest. Too many stars coming west while the east gets worse. They had one good first round series while the rest was trash. Meanwhile the west is killing each other in the first round and more teams will be better and healthier next year.
