Never going to get any real value dealing with the scraps of a dame trade. There’s no reason to even consider or entertain any of the current trade scenarios when you could net these sorts of returns for Ayton.
Please NO Nurkic 🙏

Getting Julius Randle does not favor us
U like the knicks?
The turner deals are great and also get us below second apron as-well (not that I think this is really that much of a concern for the team rn) so that could be an increased attraction especially considering it wouldn’t really be too much if any downgrade too. Also JJ has a pretty good relationship with the pacers I’m pretty sure, I think this would work out in both teams favours.
Turner’s rebounding would be a big issue but the rim protection and defence under Vogel might actually have better fit and potential with us. Toppin would be ideal but I don’t know if it’s realistic, but it would fix up that 4th starter spot.
Beal – Booker – Durant – Toppin – Turner
Gordon – Okogie – Yuta/KBD – Eubanks
That’s a Deep team. But even with TJ it’s still an ideal situation and adds a true point to the team
Beal – Booker – Durant – Okogie – Turner
TJ – Gordon – Yuta/KBD – Eubanks
Arguably better depth with this and much easier to ask for from the pacers too.
I don’t see randle fitting in at all with this team also you’d be starting Eubanks at 5 so very not ideal.
The Robinson deals either don’t favour us enough to do it, or favour us too much for the Knicks to want to do it. Basically I’m saying Quickley + Robinson would be insane. But I’d really rather not take on Fournier.
And the capela trade, I’d rather keep Ayton, but it’s still an option that’s better than nurk and whatever trash is being offered in these Dame trades.
But honestly I’d rather just keep Ayton
Miles Turner + Tj McConnell is pretty cool, but a part of me (even as an Ayton hater) wants to see what Ayton can do when he’s the 4th star and primarily focusing on rebounding/ slammin the ball
I feel like you all are taking crazy pills. DA just turned 25 and has had shit coaches his whole time here. Just dominated over the summer with our current starting PG.
Julius Randle? Evan Fournier? JFC.
I don’t like any of the knicks ones
I have no idea why were are in this mess trying to facilitate a Dame trade. I hate it. I’d rather run it with Ayton than nearly any trade I’ve seen suggested.
