It’s not Homer fan opinion to say it would take a deal for a true difference making top ten player to realistically include Herb in a deal. Not even getting to the fan love for the guy.
It kinda is a homer opinion though.

Herb is an elite high level role player. If you can get a legit #1 or #2, he's not untouchable.

I also think people assume the defense won't work without Herb. Sure Herb was essential to offsetting 4 non plus defenders in the starting lineup, but depending on the trades that are made, you might be cutting a lot of defensive dead weight from the starting lineup.

I hope they can find a 3rd team to take something like Dyson and pick instead of Herb, but the team cannot stand pat and needs to find a way to replace BI, not with a center, but a 2 way combo guard/wing with All Star potential that won't dribble the ball off his foot in crunch time.

No ones untouchable. And maybe top ten is overstating, but I do not think we are trading Herb for a number two that another team is willing to trade. I do not think the Pels would trade Herb for the right to pay Trae $40 plus million as an example. I do not think we would trade Herb for Evan Mobley going into his contract year. We certainly aren’t trading him for Garland or Allen.

Maybe there’s a one off guy like Mikal Bridges also on a good deal, and you could argue #1 or #2. But that’s about it.
