Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[DanSchwartzgan]

I think it's good value for us, Aldama basically went for cap space and three 2nds, that 2030 GSW 1st is a fake first-round pick.

I think this is the proper way to look at the GSW pick.  It's highest and best use was to allow another fan base to believe they were getting a real first round pick in a deal.

AD trade is now down to Aldama and Sergio (the Spanish National team) and possibly Middleton.  I guess in fairness, it is also the space or TPE or MLE result as well as that flexibility wouldn't exist without the trade.
