Nobody is saying otherwise. I've already said I hope all of the negative attention has caused a redistribution of power behind the scenes.

Thunder supposedly had him on the block for the right price.


They were reportedly trying to get a top 3 pick in this draft. Quantity =/= Quality when they were targeting something so specific and high quality.

Would a team take the entire Lakers bundle of picks or the Bucks bundle in a Trade Deadline trade for an All Star caliber player? I think they would. Would they take it in an offseason trade when the top 4 picks and top 4 prospects are known quantities? I don't think they would. Any major trade the Pels make probably needs to happen during the season where all the picks are future picks and they don't have to compete with concrete, present values.

It doesn’t have to be SGA, I’m just using him as an example. Could be another young player similar to him that wants out.

And like I said yea we could probably use the bucks package to get that all star but if Griff did it right from the start and took on a few bad contracts and gained more assets for contracts that would come off the books before zions contract extension would have been the way to go. Then we could cash in all those assets for said player and still not have touched the Lakers and bucks picks.
