Just looking for a trade that brings KAT to phoenix
The problem is that OKC owns the 20222 phoenix pick.


Phoenix: KAT

OKC::Ayton

Minny T Ariza+Crowder+ J Smith+ 1rnd pick Phoenix 2022 and 2024+2026 1rnd pick OKC 2021 (best pick GS/Miami/OKC)+1rnd pick OKC (or Clippes swap 2023)

So phoenix offers 2 picks and Atyton to get KAT
OKC gives three picks to get Ayton
And Minny receives 5 picks for KAT

Ayton is almost as good as KAT. What's the upgrade for Phoenix to give 2 picks?

Not sold Ayton is worth 3 firsts.

Also that 2022 first that Phoenix owes OKC is protected thru 2025. So phoenix currently only has their 2027 to trade.

3 draft picks is a steep price, but i like this for OKC
OKC is loaded with draft picks, they still have enough picks to draft young talents or they can trade those picks for a third star that can form a combo with SGA and Ayton

KAT is still clearly better than Ayton and Phoenix need to perform in the playoffs, Booker wants to win and CP3 is 35 years old, so it's now or ne. trading Booker for picks and rebuilt around Ayton.

Minny isn't going anyware and a unhappy KAT would devaluate his tradevalue. 5 draft picks is a good return.

I'm an Indy fan, not an OKC fan
3 picks for Ayton and 5 picks for KAT is fair value.

Kat is better then ayton, but not 2 first, crowder and their first round pick last year Jaylen smith better. Ayton is already a better defender and rebounder even though he plays soft majority of the time. Not to mention that towns is on a max contract as well. I would love to see towns in Phx, but not if its going to cripple the team.

Fred you so weird worried about protections on a pick. So y wouldn’t the suns take the protection off especially when there involved in the trade.

The suns owe Thunder a protected pick. so the Thunder are trying to get Ayton and the suns want kat so the protection will be taking off that shouldn’t be a factor it’s just weird bringing up the protection like the suns wouldn’t take off especially cause there in trade to get the best player. just another way to say something meaningless.

Yea, I think I was initially misreading this trade.

OKC is giving up the 2022 Phoenix pick (#13-#30) as well as 2 other firsts (1rnd pick OKC 2021 (best pick GS/ Miami/ OKC) +1rnd pick OKC) for Ayton.

While Phoenix is giving up the 2022 Phoenix pick (#1-#12) and 2024 and 2026 picks (plus Ayton) for KAT

Still not sold on Ayton being worth 2+ picks. Is Ayton really that good or does he look good playing with Booker and CP3?

Definitely not sure that KAT is worth 2+ picks above Ayton. The only center that I would consider worth 2+ picks above Ayton is Embiid.

What about Jokic?

Why is Ayton is worth 2+ firsts this year when his stats are worse than Drummond's stats last year? You could get Drummond for a second rounder last year.

Jokic's lack of defense and rim protection take him down a notch for me. Because of Jokic's skill set, most teams will have to alter their roster (defensive-shot blocking PF, good 3&D wings, PG that does not need the ball to be effective) to get all of Jokic's "value".
