Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[DanSchwartzgan]

I'd say yes so hard they'd rethink the offer.

You may not appreciate this part, but then you trade 8 for 12, 17 and Isaiah Joe.  Draft Morez Johnson and Okorie.

OKC may not want to just get 9, but Atlanta doesn't want to trade to 12.  So, the double swap gets OKC far enough up the board to get what they want.  Atlanta gets a center for just moving back one slot.  Dallas gets all sorts of youth and a bench shooter for after they buy out Klay.

Lively, Johnson, Cisse
Flagg, Naji
PJ/Risacher,Martin
Christie, Joe, Johnson
Irving, Okorie, Nembhart
