    I’m half surprised that hasn’t been proposed by some in here, to be honest

    All of his teammates apparently. Ffs, is there another superteam forming on the horizon?

    If they get him the league should investigate what kind of pills they are giving to get what they want

    This popped into my head but I didn’t take a look at if salaries would match. This would be my Giannis proposal though:

    POR gets - Giannis Antentekumpo, George Hill, Josh Richardson, Robin Lopez

    PHI gets - CJ McCollum, Anfernee Simons, Brook Lopez, 2023 POR pick swap, additional POR 2nds

    MIL gets - Ben Simmons, Jusuf Nurkic, Zach Collins, Gary Trent Jr, 2020 # 16, 2021 POR pick swap, 2022 protected POR pick, 2021 protected PHI pick

    An all star + star-quality big + two rookie salaries + 3 1st rounders + 1 pick swap for Giannis, I feel like that would be a huge haul for him. We end up giving this year’s pick and another protected pick + two pick swaps.

    I think we’d be the team with the most reservation though, as it seriously mortgages our future and having Giannis leave us after giving up that much would be devastating.
