Don’t like these “trade Trae because we won the lottery” threads. Atlanta feels good enough to double down.
Atlanta reasoning: try to win a title while Murray is on a nice contract..
Phoenix: Capela, Hunter, Sarr, Sac first
Atlanta: KD
Phoenix takes a huge step back but believes Sarr can develop quickly. Save a fortune, trust in Booker to keep them in play-in. Hope Beal opens his list of teams to trade and you can reset the roster completely..
Miami: Capela, Hunter, Sarr
Atlanta: Butler
Miami takes a huge step back but believes Sarr can develop quickly. Save a fortune, trust in Bam to keep them in play-in. Still ready to trade for Mitchell if it becomes an option.
For the responses?
Phoenix: Trae, Sarr
Atlanta: Booker, 22nd, 2031 Phoenix first
Phoenix resets their timeline a bit and maybe get a better fit with KD? Hope by the time KD actually declines, Sarr has developed into a secondary star for Trae.
Atlanta gets a comparable talent that’s a better fit with Murray. They get an unprotected pick from maybe the most asset limited team in the league. Trade the Sac first for Caruso, get to the second round.
