But we're three days away from essentially everyone being open to being traded from every roster.
That's starting on December 15th.
I mean, basically, type.
For Milwaukee, by the way, when we're talking about picks like this year, they have a pick.
It's just whichever one is the worst of their pick and New Orleans likely to be their own pick.
But if you look forward in the next few years, they're not going to have a 2027 pick.
They're going to have the least favorable of several different teams picks in 2028.
They don't have a pick in 29.
They're going to have a pick swap with Portland in 2030.
So they have some draft picks available to them, but the real likelihood here is they're going to be looking for some draft capital because even if they struggle over the next few years, their picks aren't going to be great.
Now, that is where you could convince yourself if you're on the Knicks side of this, well, if their own first round picks are going to be swapped with other teams, they might as well
end up with the worst possible pick because who cares right if you get a bad pick the other team's just going to take that from you and you might want to remain competitive but normally the way this all ends up working itself out these teams are looking for a giant haul in return for their superstar so whether that ends up being like i just mentioned if it's jalen johnson and it
There are other teams that can make these offers.
But I don't think that they would do it either.
That's the thing.
I think Atlanta's in the space presently where they've decided that's their guy.
Right.
And I think that they'd be more likely to move Trae Young as a piece to a team that thinks that could take them over the top or dismantle things around it so they can build around Jalen Johnson than they would be willing to move him in exchange for Giannis to pair with Trae Young.
That's where you look at the Miami Heat and you say,
whatever their best offer is, may actually end up being, at the very least, near the best offer that Milwaukee can get.
