Thunder: Jokic
Denver: C Holmgren + Hartenstein + return first round pick Denver 27-29

01 Jun 2026 11:49:50
Not enough for Jokic.

01 Jun 2026 14:20:04
I don't know if that isn't enough.
They get a young star and their future back.

Jokic is a top three player in this league, but Denver has little chance winning another title with him. Jokic is 31, they don't have the picks to trade for another star and they don't have the capspace to sign a big free agent.

They can trade Murray and Gordon for more picks and they can start a rebuilt around Holmgren.

01 Jun 2026 22:54:35
Yup that’s not enough for a 31 years old superstar who is still in his prime. Let’s get serious.

27 May 2026 09:22:16
Boston: Jokic
Philly: J Brown
Denver: P George + 1rnd pick Philly 27-29 (or Clippers swap) + 31 + 1rnd pick Bost 27-29 + swap option Clippers pick 28

Boston
C: Jokic
PF: Tatum
SF: Hauser
SG: White

Philly

27 May 2026 15:46:07
Why would Denver do that lmao?

28 May 2026 07:07:51
There run is over.
Draft picks and a good swap is a solid return.
The Denver picks are also top protected, so they can keep their picks, if they start a rebuilt now.

28 May 2026 07:57:23
Yeah, Denver’s run is over when Jokic is right in his prime. Lmao. You don't trade the NBA's best player for that package, you find a way to retool around him even if it means trading the whole squad.

Pretty good trades. If those firsts are lightly protected, I think all teams say yes.

14 May 2026 10:47:37
The Nuggets should throw in a pick that goes to the Celtics.

Denver is missing someone like Reaves - so basically LA could create 6x1st value for Giannis!

LAL Giannes, Prince, Harris, Anthony, Brothers
MIL Braun, Holmes, 1st 2031 + LaRavia, Knecht, 1st 2031 + release (Tyson, Pickett, Hachim., Vinc., Kleb. )
DEN Reaves

Unfortunately, also Denver becomes better - but Lakers would close up to as well.

Smart, Luca, Bron, Giannis, Ayton
Anthony, Harris, Prince, Vander, Hayes.

04 Jan 2026 03:39:40
Cavs get: Jalen Smith and Dalen Terry
Bulls get: Max Strus and 3 2nds ('27 Nuggets, '28 and '32)

Why?
Cavs add 2 excellent role players to their bench.
Bulls get 3 2nd round picks.

02 Jan 2026 22:25:39
Sas-Den-Dal

Sas: Daniel Gafford, Nnaji Marshall

Den: Kelly Olynyk

Dal: Jeremy Sochan, Zeke Nnaji, 1st round pick Sas 2028 top 8 protected, 2nd round pick Sas


Spurs already have a ridiculous amount of talent on the team and Sochan cant find his minutes there, he needs a fresh start and Dallas can give them a chance to grow with Flagg. Meanwhile, the Spurs strengthen their frontcourt even more. Gafford adds toughness and Marshall gives more vet presence. Mavs get 2 young guys to develop and added assets. Nuggets can use Olynyk to back up JV while Jokic is out.

Spurs new depth

Fox - Harper - McLaughlin
Vassell - Champagnie - Waters
Castle - Johnson - Marshall
Wembanyama - Barnes - Bryant
Gafford - Kornet
>> Man, this line up is so deep

Mavericks

Irving - Nembhard - Williams
Christie - Thompson - Russell
Flagg - Martin
Washington - Sochan
Davis - Nnaji - Lively

Nuggets

Murray - Picket
Strawther - Hardaway (Braun)
Johnson - Brown - Tyson
Watson - (Gordon)
Valanciunas - Olynyk (Jokic)

02 Dec 2025 14:08:52
ATL-SAC

ATL get: Domantas Sabonis
SAC get: Kristaps Porzingis, Luke Kennard, Vit Krejci, 1st round pick 2026, 1st round pick 2029, swap rights in 2030

The emergence of Jalen Johnson as a versatile PF will make him a perfect fit with Domas. This will be a Denver Nuggets lite roster in Atlanta

Pg- Young, Wallace
Sg- Daniels, Alexander-Walker
Sf- Risacher, Houstan
Pf- Johnson, Gueye, Newell
Ce- Sabonis, Okongwu

02 Dec 2025 19:24:56
I don’t think the Hawks are giving up 3 1sts for Sabonis.

13 Dec 2025 17:59:38
If Atlanta did this trade they would be the laughing stocks of the league.

10 Nov 2025 02:10:59
CLIPPERS - PACERS - NUGGETS

CLIPPERS - Pascal Siakam
- gets a star vet leader with lots of experience and is a great Kawhi teammate in TORONTO

James Harden - Kris Dunn
Bradley Beal - Bogdan Bogdanovic
Kawhi Leonard - Nic Batum
Pascal Siakam - Yanic Niederhauser
Ivica Zubac - Brook Lopez

PACERS - John Collins (exp), Zeke Nnaji, Peyton Watson, 1st round pick LAC 2030, pick swap 2031 with LAC, 2027 1st round pick (least of DEN pick with LAC), DEN 2028 1st round pick top 18 protected
- gets assets for Pascal

NUGGETS - Chris Paul , Derrick Jones Jr & 2 2nds from CLIPPERS + 2nd from PACERS
- Chris Paul with a better chance for the title, and they get another high flyer to even improve their depth

Jamal Murray - Chris Paul - Jalen Pickett
Christian Braun - Tim Hardaway
Cam Johnson - Bruce Brown - Julian Strawther
Aaron Gordon - Derrick Jones Jr
Nikola Jokic - Jonas Valanciunas

23 Aug 2025 18:38:59
Cavs get: Day'Ron Sharpe and Ziaire Williams
Nets get: Max Strus and 4 unprotected 2nds ('26 Cavs, '27 Nuggets, '28 Cavs, '32 Cavs)

Why?
Cavs bolster their bench and save money. Hunter is somewhat injury prone.
Nets add more 2nds to their collection and can flip Strus for more assets.

11 Aug 2025 03:40:19
Cavs get: Royce O'Neale and Nick Richards
Suns get: Kyle Anderson and '27 SRP via Nuggets
Jazz get: Max Strus

Why?
Cavs get Mitchell's bestie and a back-up big.
Suns add a point forward and a second-round pick.
Jazz adds a veteran shooter.
