Seems crazy to me that both IQ and RJ are on the bench damn. didn't know NAW and Dyson were playing that well this year.

I personally think that's too much for Toronto to give up for someone like Trae, though the value is probably fair. This does leave us with less depth overall, Barrett was a huge part of our offense and with him gone no one has really been stepping up (Dick, Walter, Agbaji have all been mediocre to flat out horrible) . However I don't hate the basis behind the trade.

According to GMs around the league, Young doesn't have much value. Either way, he's not a fit in Houston.

08 Dec 2025 09:14:02
Atl: Giannis+ Thanasis
Bucks:T Young+ Risacher+ 1rnd pick Spurs (swap Cleveland,Minnny or Utah)

More picks.

04 Dec 2025 14:53:53
Spurs-Bucks

Spurs: Giannis, Trent Jr, Harris, Thanasis
Bucks: Harper, Johnson, Bryant, Barnes, Olynyk, 2026 1st better of Spurs or Hawks, 2028 1st unprotected, 2031 1st, 2030 & 2032 1st swap

Harper and Bryant are 2 players they can develop, Harper is showing flash of being a great player with all star potential.

Spurs look to pair Giannis and Wemby with Fox orchestrating

Spurs new look

Fox/McLaughlin
Vassell/Trent Jr/Harris
Castle/Champagnie/Jones-Garcia
Giannis/Sochan/Thanasis
Wemby/Kornet

02 Dec 2025 14:08:52
ATL-SAC

ATL get: Domantas Sabonis
SAC get: Kristaps Porzingis, Luke Kennard, Vit Krejci, 1st round pick 2026, 1st round pick 2029, swap rights in 2030

The emergence of Jalen Johnson as a versatile PF will make him a perfect fit with Domas. This will be a Denver Nuggets lite roster in Atlanta

Pg- Young, Wallace
Sg- Daniels, Alexander-Walker
Sf- Risacher, Houstan
Pf- Johnson, Gueye, Newell
Ce- Sabonis, Okongwu

02 Dec 2025 19:24:56
I don’t think the Hawks are giving up 3 1sts for Sabonis.

25 Nov 2025 08:40:28
Charlotte - Atlanta

Charlotte get Trae Young

Atlanta get Lamelo Ball

What do you think? Will there be an impact for both teams?

25 Nov 2025 20:56:56
Young has a lot more value.

22 Nov 2025 12:01:06
Pels-Hawks

Hawks get Trey Murphy, Jordan Hawkins

Pels get Risacher, Kennard, their own '26 pick back

Pels can officially tank and add Risacher to a young core of Fears and Queen.

Hawks get a starting 3 who fits perfectly with what they are doing around Trae.

Trae/NAW
Dyson/NAW/Hawkins
Murphy/Dyson/Krejic
Jalen/Gueye
KP/Okongwu

23 Nov 2025 00:56:30
Murphy is not worth that; you're talking about last years number 1 pick and a potential hall of famer in next years draft.

24 Nov 2025 12:51:35
@Nightcap - those are fair points. My counter would be that Risacher might have been a #1 pick, but he does not have the talent or potential of one. As for the pick, it very well could turn into a hall of famer. It could just as easily fall to #7 and be a complete unknown. I think the Pelicans are probably a little bit better than their record would indicate right now and they have no incentive to tank like Washington, Brooklyn, Indiana, etc. Even if they do end up with the worst record, it’s still only a 50% chance you get one of those three guys.

24 Nov 2025 19:14:02
I also don't think Murphy is all that great.

18 Nov 2025 05:47:10
Hawks-Rockets

Hawks get Fred Vanvleet, Jabari Smith Jr & Reed Sheppard + 1st round pick

Alexander-Walker/Krejci/Vanvleet
Daniels/Sheppard
Risacher/Kennard
Johnson/Smith Jr
Porzingis/Okongwu/Gueye

Rockets get Trae Young & Keaton Wallace

Young/Holiday
Thompson/Wallace
Durant/Okogie
Eason/DFS/Green
Sengun/Adams/Capela

19 Nov 2025 12:54:08
Still a yes, but probably they have to give up Krejci instead of K. Wallace.

16 Nov 2025 05:38:43
ATL/MEM/TOR

ATL get Ja Morant & 1st from TOR

Pg Morant
Sg Daniels
Sf Risacher

Pg Quickley
Sg Wells
Sf Coward
Pf Jackson Jr
Ce Edey

TOR get Trae Young

Pg Young
Sg Barrett
Sf Ingram
Pf Barnes
Ce Poeltl

09 Dec 2025 15:40:59
I would accept this as a trade so we can finally have someone whos a much better shooter. But defensively we would need to be stronger i would prefer getting NAW. And give up another player.

03 Nov 2025 15:21:14
Grizz get: Trae Young

Hawks get: Ja Morant.

18 Sep 2025 05:21:03
ATL/BOS/SAC

ATL get Jaylen Brown & Nemias Queta

Pg Young/NAW
Sg Daniels/Krejci
Sf Brown/Kennard

Ce Okongwu/Queta

BOS get Domantas Sabonis & Demar Derozan

Pg Pritchard/Simons
Sg White/Shierman
Sf Derozan/Gonzales
Pf Tatum/Walsh
Ce Sabonis/Tillman

SAC get Kristaps Porzingis, Zacharie Risacher, Sam Hauser & 1st round pick from ATL, 2nd round pick from Boston, pick swap Boston

Pg Schroder/Ellis
Sg Lavine/Monk/Carter
Sf Risacher/Hauser/McDermott
Pf Murray/Saric
Ce Porzingis/Eubanks

18 Sep 2025 12:01:41
Boston declines

Look at it in 2 parts

Brown as a premier 2 way wing has more value than Sabonis who is tough to build around and has struggled in the playoffs.

Then you have Hauser, Queta, a 2nd, and a swap for Derozan who nobody wants and doesn't have any value.

10 Sep 2025 17:20:17
Megadeal

Boston - Charlotte - Atlanta - Utah

Celtics get Lamelo Ball + Lauri Markkanen
- puts in 2 star players to go with Tatum in the long run

Ball
White
Tatum
Markkanen
Queta

Hornets get Zacharie Risacher + Anfernee Simons + 1st round pick from Boston

Simons
Miller
Risacher
Bridges
Plumlee

Atlanta get Jaylen Brown
- win now move

Young
Daniels
Brown
Johnson
Okongwu

Utah get Kristaps Porzingis, Hugo Gonzales, 2 1sts from Boston, 1st from Atlanta + 2 pick swaps from Boston

10 Sep 2025 22:34:57
I really like this for the Celtics. Hornets and Hawks do pretty good as well.

Not sure Utah accepts this package; those firsts are mediocre.

01 Sep 2025 07:54:31
Spurs: J Brown
Bost:Vassel+Barnes+ 1rnd pick 26 (atl swap)+ 1rnd pick 30 (best Spurs- Wolves-Dal)+1rnd pick 32+ swap 31 pick (best Spurs-Kings-Bost).

01 Sep 2025 14:01:51
I think Boston should trade Brown, but if they do, they should go after bigs.

01 Sep 2025 17:59:45
ok, but this gives them flexibility.
- The 26 pick will be high
-those spurs picks have swap options so a higher chance to get in the lottery too.
-Barnes comes of the books next year
-Vassel is a good trade piece

This gives them the assets to trade for Giannis next year.

02 Sep 2025 00:50:54
Not sure the 26 will be high as Atlanta might be pretty good. Vassel is considered by many to be a questionable contract, think they might need a better win now player. It's not horrible just not ideal.

02 Sep 2025 10:37:01
No but their own pick could end up high if they tank for a year.

13 Aug 2025 23:47:04
Miami - Cleveland - Sacramento

Miami : Demar Derozan + Dean Wade

Cleveland : Andrew Wiggins & 2nd round pick from Miami

Sacramento : Deandre Hunter + Simone Fontecchio + 2nd round pick from Miami

What motivates each team to do it

Miami is a team that always compete, if they cant find a way to get a star, they can settle for someone who can atleast lead them to the playoffs and use their grit to keep them hanging in the east. Demar Derozan can provide them that with Herro, Powell and Bam. Dean Wade adds front court depth

Pg- Herro/Mitchell/Rozier
Sg- Derozan/Larrson
Sf- Powell/Highsmith/Jacquez
Pf- Adebayo/Jovic
Ce- Ware/Wade

Cleveland adds a wing who can defend opposing team's best wing, Wiggins proved that in his championship run with the Warriors. Though they need to sign some minimum bigs to give them some depth

Pg- Garland/Ball/Porter
Sg- Mitchell/Merrill
Sf- Wiggins/Strus
Pf- Mobley/Nance
Ce- Allen/Nance

Sacramento adds a bigger player who can play alongside Murray and Sabonis because of his defense

Pg- Schroder/Ellis
Sg- Lavine/Monk/Carter
Sf- Murray/Fontecchio
Pf- Hunter/Lyles
Ce- Sabonis/Eubanks

30 Jul 2025 05:17:31
Cavs get: Jalen Johnson, Dyson Daniels, '25 first via Pels and '29 unprotected first
Hawks get: Donovan Mitchell

Why?
Cavs get better fitting pieces and some firsts.
Hawks get a superstar.

30 Jul 2025 08:04:38
Mitchell-Young wouldn't work.

30 Jul 2025 11:21:07
Totally ruins the positive direction Atlanta is going in.

30 Jul 2025 15:16:06
Atlanta says hell no.

19 Jul 2025 04:58:24
Suns-Wizards-Blazers-Nets deal

Suns
- Marcus Smart
- 2nd round pick via Wizards

Wizards
- Jerami Grant
- Nick Richards

Blazers
- Corey Kispert
- highly protected 2nd from the Nets

Nets
- Greyson Allen
- 1st round pick swap with Wizards
- 2nd round pick from Blazers & Suns


Suns acquire a guard that fits well at the starting backcourt combo with Booker. They shed Allen's salary for the next seasons.
Booker and Green can chuck up shots while having dawgs around them

Smart-Gillespie
Booker-Dunn
Green-Oneale
Brooks-Ighodaro
Williams-Maluach

Wizards again make another lowkey move to finally form atleast a play in team and be significant again in the open east. While not giving up that much. The position of need is quality frontline

Carrington-Johnson
McCollum-Wesley
Middleton-Coulibaly-Johnson
Grant-Branham-Bagley
Sarr-Richards-Vukcevic

Blazers save money in the process and give Camara and Murray more time to play plus they get wing depth

Holiday-Henderson (Lillard)
Sharpe-Kispert
Avdija-Thybulle
Camara-Murray
Clingan-Yang-Reath

The Nets eat salary and gain some assets in return.

25 Jun 2025 08:26:56
Denver-Phoenix-Brooklyn

Denver acquire: Bradley Beal, 21st pick via Brooklyn
- Joker can make Beal great again, he is still a 20ppg SG that can help them in the playoffs

Murray
Beal
Braun
Gordon
Jokic

Phoenix acquire: Michael Porter Jr & 27th pick via Brooklyn
- Porter Jr can play the starting 4 for them, he still a bad contract but atleast better than Beal's

Brooklyn acquire: 10th pick via Phoenix from Houston, Zeke Nnaji, Dario Saric
- move up and get another lottery pick for taking money back
