    I would rather keep Grant then go any where near PG's contract cause as bad as Grant's is I really believe PG's contract is TOXIC because one he is injury prone AF and he is due to regress plus that contract --- DAMN no thx

    I'd love to see us somehow move Grant's contract to Chicago and figure out a way to free our pick situation with them.

    I'd love to get #3.

    Yeah I'd happily eat PG deal. The salary difference don't matter this year.

    Its really just two years of PG deal - and we can get #3? Thats a home run deal. Its not like Grant/ Jrue are on amazing Deni contracts.

    Would be shocked if the 6ers consider it. But if they would yes we certainly should do something like that.

    I know probably no chance in hell for this but how about

    Jrue/Grant for PG and number 3 pick maybe we throw in a pick so basically they would be deferring the pick to another year and dumping PG who has huge contract for two players who can help them contend now. East is wide open Jrue, Maxey, Grant, Embid is solid. Do they do it probably not but gives them versatility, PG’s contract is a major anchor.

    btw I wouldn’t be surprised if they blow it up and start over and trade Embid

    Any time you expand past three teams, just close the trade machine. It almost never ever happens.

    I'd rather just keep #3 than get those later picks.

    Yes exactly. I'm taking Bailey at #3 and hoping he's the star to get us contending. By far highest chance of a star out of all those picks and assets.

    If we already had a star and needed depth I could see getting all the Nets/Bulls assets over #3.

    Those trades always get expanded later. They don't start as 4 or 6 team trades.

    Give some more examples. I said they're rare. One example does not disprove that lol

    Can really break this idea easily down into 3 separate trades. Jrue and Ant from Monday. Getting our pick from the Bulls is a separate side deal.

    Then most of what you list is a 3 team deal with 6ers Blazers Nets.

    See prior post.

    Celtics and Bulls have nothing to do with the other teams so easily can be viewed as stand alone two teams trades with us.

    Yeah or VJ - I'm fine either way. I would keep 3 if we somehow got it and take whoever we project as BPA.

    I don't see that making sense for the 6ers though. Think they need another big piece.

    Jrue+Grant+11 don't have enough value over PG to be worth #3.

    I'll tell you what. I really like Ace Bailey's game and I like his attitude. Also if we got PG I think we could only flip him one place for positive value and that's to the Bucks for Dame and the Bucks 2031 FRP. PG has far more value than Dame because he is going to play next season.

    you like Ace’s attitude? Comes off as arrogant to me not wanting to do any work outs for teams.

    I watched an interview of him yesterday and he said that he was just taking the advice of his people and he just wanted to concentrate on basketball. I don't think that's an Ace thing and I don't think it will impact how he is as a player on the court of off it.
