We wanted to trade up in last years draft, with Haliburton as a target. We've been long rumored to be interested in Buddy Hield/ Richaun Holmes. Our old pal Harrison Barnes is there too. Marvin Bagley is an interesting project. Tristan Thompson would add some toughness and rebounding that we lack on this roster.
Would they be interested in Porzingis?
How about this crazy 3 way trade:
Mavs acquire: Hield / Holmes / Danny Green / Korkmaz
Kings acquire: Ben Simmons / Dwight Powell / Trey Burke
Sixers acquire: Porzingis / Haliburton / Bagley / Moses Brown
Some room to play around with moving parts. Seems like the Kings are getting robbed here. May have to throw some 1st round picks at them.
You have Philly effectively getting both KP and Haliburton for Simmons. Know way they are getting that kind of value for Simmons.
I don't see any reasons the Mavs want Hield. We already have THJ and folks are bitching about that contract. Hield is a better volume shooter, but even worse defender, and that contract is worse than THJ. I would rather have Barnes than Hield.
If you are in the camp of trading KP just to trade him, maybe you do something like KP for Holmes/Barnes. I probably would have pulled that trigger last offseason, but I think KP has more value than that right now.
The real catch would be Haliburton. Maybe KP/Brunson/DFS + 2 firsts for Haliburton/Holmes/Barnes?
