Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

I thought of a similar idea from Toronto, but I think CMB is probably close to untouchable to them, they just inserted him in the starting lineup. However, we know Toronto will go all in if it gives them a shot to win it all. This is the “picks” centered package, and honestly that might be too many picks to give up for AD.

Agree on CMB. I don’t think there is an appetizing deal with TOR. My guess is their offer would be Poeltl, Barrett, Agbaji, and picks. I don’t think there is any chance the #4 seed would trade their starting PG and SG. Right now, they still need Quickley badly. Poeltl has an AWFUL contract that goes through 2030, and the massive extension doesn’t start until ‘27. Yuck. Barrett could be flipped to someone else. He wants a massive extension. No thanks. Mavs would have to release players…..I think Tor would have to get someone else involved and pay through the nose to make it work. I’d have to have their ‘26, ‘28, and ‘30 1sts at minimum, and their ‘26 pick won’t be very good. I’m in the “trade AD for just about anything” camp; however, this is one I’d actually just rather have AD.
