    Giannis would cost Scottie+ and a chunk of draft picks. Maybe a combo including Scottie and Jak.
    Bucks already have Dame, they're not going to want IQ

  6. @gb1ock

    RJ is better than Scottie so id trade Scottie for sure but lets be real this trade isnt happening lol

  8. @mikeyjames

    The cost to get Giannis would be sky high. I don’t see it happening at all. This isn’t the Kawhi situation where you’re trading for a guy coming off a serious injury so you’re buying somewhat low. You’re not getting Giannis without Barnes being the main piece in the trade package. Even if he wasn’t part of that deal the Scottie, Ingram, and Giannis fit is highly questionable. This is just another one of these offseason rumors similar to the KD one.

    Scottie won't be enough. It'll have to be Quickley + Scottie + 2-3 picks (not this years). This'll leave us wih Barret, Ingram, Giannis, and our lottery pick this year with Gradey, Jakobe, Shead. It's a good trade both way.

  14. @steve.c.74

    Guys You don’t determine trade price in theory based off value.

    You need to consider who else has the assets, and how deep into those assets you think they will go. While considering salaries as well.

  17. @adrianau6679

    Unless you want to watch a free-throw bricking competition between RJ, Giannis, and Poeltl, or a frontcourt of Scottie, Giannis, and Poeltl that can’t shoot, both RJ and Scottie need to go for Giannis. Otherwise, keep everyone and stay on the same course.

  18. @davidobrien3897

    This is a ludicrous podcast. No legit chance here. This is almost as bad as the one about Zach Levine coming to Troonto. Raptors should never, and will never, trade their solid assets of Scottie, RJ Barret, Quickley, etc. There may be others they'd consdier but not those 3. What are we going to do with Giannis who wants to start and eat up minutes. It would mean Scottie would go to the Bench??? Or we'd reoll two lines all game equal minutes? Not going to happen in this modern NBA.

    GA, JP, BI, SB, with GD or JS. That lineup could be very competitive. Getting Joker or Booker would be a better fit, but Giannis would work.

  30. @smartenuphumans

    Out of all the crazy trades Raps are rumored in, this I can see happening. It would be Scottie involved not IQ or RJ, him and Giannis play the same position and do the same things. And probably a pick swap at this draft but I'm keeping RJ over IQ – RJ's a great ball handler. Lots of nice PG's in this draft, even in the lower realm like Clayton.

  31. @gwenweight6916

    You people are all crazy! This whole discussion is INSANE!
    How are we even going to make this work?!
    Giannis next to Jokic, Sabonis AND Durant?!
    We won't have a point guard! Have none of you heard of SPACING?!
    Fine! We overpay for Harden, but you still have, at best, limited bench depth!
    Rappi Torsvan would never be buzzing about such a thing!

  32. @smartenuphumans

    IF you go get Giannis, the goal is obvious – championship. SO, this means, he must be surrounded in shooters. Ample 3 point threats, this allows Giannis to cook inside.

  33. @dan61909

    There is no deal for Giannis that doesn’t involve Scottie. Not even just value and salary wise, but fit as well. Scottie and Giannis on tbt same team with the rest of the roster construction literally makes no sense

  37. @khemise1984

    Nonsense, for a player who is basically one dimensional player and is older their is a whole lot to put around such players type,combined with the young pieces and first round future picks they would want,no.They could go trade him to the Lakers to form a All Star team with old man LeBron and Luca.

  38. @jaspd17

    This ain’t happening. I know Masai loves a shocking trade but I think he gives this current squad a full season together to figure it out. Don’t think Masai would want to trade Scottie either (as much as Giannis is the better player, Masai loves internal development)
