Mavs need to be brace and confident!

Go for Harper to get your guard and go for another good pick like Peat or be lucky and get Boozer - having some picks and future CAP in addition.

Bulls want the playoffs and Spurs want a ring and you never know how long a tall guy like Wembanyama stays health!

CHI Irving, Johnson, Gafford
DAL Harper, Essengue - fillers SAN & CHI
SAN Davis, White, Marshall.

Dylan Harper is untouchable. It would take an insane offer to pry him away. Anthony Davis ain't it.

A lot of chatting here - are there also serious experts?

Look, Harper is not even top 10 in rookies ranking. He is a great talent - but what does he need? BTW like Flagg. Playing time - and time.

So if SAN says, look we are building - no way.

But they got for Fox. You have Wemby - look at 76ers - with 10y health Embiid they would one of the leaders - are they?

If SAN says, we want to win the next 3 years, what do they have? 3 PG Fox, Castle, Harper - PF? Barnes?

White delivers better impact as Harper for now - Davis AND Mashall improve the roster on the forward side - SAN becomes a real contender - still have a lot young players.

Mavs give away a lot - in point of view "winning". But they build and with Flagg and Harper and even, Christie, Lively, Essengue around they may be able to build become contender in some years.

Facts.

It doesn't matter if Harper isn't getting starter minutes. The Spurs are high on him. He's almost as untouchable as Cooper Flagg.

There’s a report telling that Giannis might consider pairing up with Ant in Minnesota. But Minnesota doesnt really have the assets to acquire him so they would need to be creative:

Minnesota-Milwaukee-LA Lakers-Detroit

Minnesota get Giannis, Turner, Vincent, Trent Jr, D Robinson
- they get the superstar pairing with Ant and get rotational players who can shoot

Divincenzo/ Conley/ Vincent
Edwards/ Trent Jr
Robinson/ Shannon
Giannis/ Reid/ Ingles
Turner/ Beringer

Milwaukee get Ayton, T Harris, Knecht, Dillingham, Kleber (exp), Vanderbilt, 2 1sts from Lakers, 3 1sts from Detroit, 2026 & 2032 1sts from Minnesota, 2028 swap with Minnesota
- rebuild

Lakers get Gobert & Levert
- gets a defensive anchor and a bench scoring option

Doncic/ Smart/ James Jr
Reaves/ Laravia
Lebron/ Levert
Hachimura/ Timme/ Thiero
Gobert/ Hayes

Detroit get McDaniels, Randle, G harris
- consolidates and goes all in

Cunningham/ Jenkins/ Sasser
Thompson/ Ivey/ Harris
McDaniels/ Holland
Randle/ Klintman/ Reed
Duren/ Stewart.

How does that help the Pistons when Murray is injured and they lose rotational pieces.

Agree2 Disagree0

29 Jan 2026 22:49:57
It doesn't matter if he takes the rest of the season until next season begins. Do you think 1 of 29 teams would like to get 14m under the tax or maybe two teams at 7m? Or 4 teams at 3.5m and receive a couple 2nd rounders?

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jan 2026 22:58:58
Pistons trade exemption
14.1m
Got to use it or lose it!

Horrible for a contender like Minnesota.

Chicago doesn't have the assets to get someone like Edwards. It would take a massive overpay to get the TWolves to consider trading Ant.
