    San Antonio trades Gasol, Leonard, Green. Gets CJ and ET. There's no way Toronto stays in that deal. Portland grabs that for themselves.

    I’ve been told Jimmy Butler is not a good dude. Didn’t get specifics but someone who definitely would know just said “yeah you don’t want to deal with Butler. He’s not a good guy”.

    Was it Karl-Anthony Towns that told you that?

    I'd prefer Tobias Harris to most.

    To mirror trading Sam Bowie for Buck, we'd have to trade Greg Oden for someone. Pretty sure that ship has sailed, so it's a trick question.

    Except San Antonio may not send him west/he may like the big market of Canada and an easy path to the finals.

    I see your point, but we do have a high PER former lottery pick on the block....

    Well lets see.

    Buck was a 3 time all-star, ROY, 2 time all defensive first team, 2 time all defensive second team.

    So I guess I will go with the Antetokounmpo that was a 2 time NBA all-star, and 1 time NBA all defensive second team, so far.
