Giannis to the Pels?

REPORT: The Pelicans are ?keeping close tabs? on Giannis? situation in Milwaukee, per @ScoopB.

?I?m told Zion could very well be on the table in a potential Giannis deal if Milwaukee chooses to explore trade options.?

I think depending where this pick lands it could gain traction

Maybe Dumars is weighing the AD for Luka trade and thinking he can get Giannis for a good price lol

I love the off season just for this reason. Sitting here thinking about Giannis instead of Zion on the current team makes me feel warm and fuzzy. I doubt it happens but it sure would be sweet to see. If you have a chance to land a player like Giannis and it doesn't break the bank you take it.

i could only imagine if we were to trade zion and their firsts back to them, with some picks, n get Giannis/ then we get the 2nd pick in the lottery and get Dylan Harper


Id feel great about our chances with

Dylan Harper
Trey Murphy
Herb Jones
Giannis

Don’t fall for this….

He does not want to come here. End thread

He wants an owner that is willing to spend. Our owner is cheap. Spends her money on the church and for some reason Ochsner medical.

If there's a world where we can trade for Giannis, that trade will definitely include our lottery pick.

Houston now is favorite

If Milwaukee were to do that, our 2026 swap and 2027 rights look absolutely fantastic. There's definitely a strong possibility we will be able to sell our pick and swap back to them for a very favorable price (for us) in any Giannis deal.

Favorite? That is just speculation.

You might want to hold your fire on this now that Shams has doubled downed on that the Celtics might have a Fire Sale this summer.

if they were not to trade giannas to us (of course) and wanted to trade him to .....houston why would we trade them their pick swap back .. I mean what would we get is the better question....

people keep saying we would be the third team in a trade, but what could we possibly get out of this? whats a fair example

Good question and I don't know. But I think it's exciting to think about that since those assets have a lot more value now due to the Lillard injury. If we don't see a deal we like just keep them. Maybe they don't move Giannis, he misses half the season next year, and we get a super high pick out of it.

5 places that Zion could get traded too

The first two are the best options out of those. Not overly exciting.
