    Leading scorer on playoff team isn’t nothing. Simmons is a good one, tho similar to Rose with the injury around time of fall off. Jordan Poole comes to mind.

    There are 600 guards that good in their mid 20s. 5 or 6 pop up every year.

    BOS tried to get KD for Jaylen Brown in 2022 when he was a Net. Deal was Brown, Derick White and 1sts, but Nets wanted Smart and additional assets with Brown. So there is precedence for BOS wanting KD and offering Brown. Now that was 4 years ago, but it's something to consider.

    Fat boy says there could be a bidding war for Jaylen and that we're in the mix... https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2026/06/windhorst-bidding-war-possible-for-jaylen-brown.html

    Stevens will want to extract more from Stone, but if we could do something like this then that would be grand. DFS is likely a negative, so perhaps the PHX pick gets sent as well. There's a chance, but POR and ATL may have better packages.

    My hope of a soft reset could be squashed by a Jaylen Brown overbid. We’ll probably go 30yr old star chasing instead. Bummer. We don’t have the foundation to contend with Jaylen Brown.

    I'm just saying

    The Trade works even without Pritchard

    Because Brown is going to be very annoyed that they have offered him up for trades in 2 of the last 4 years. If they give him his huge extension, then he might be not ask out. If he does ask to be tradded, Houston will be on the top of his list.

    That offer from Boston was a better deal than what they ultimately received from Phoenix…
