    If he wants Miami then let’s facilitate the trade:

    Giannis and Amen would dominate the paint. How many people are they going to send in the paint to stop them?
    And as for a Stretch 5, I guess that's why we keep Jabari.

    Just for the record - OKC isn't going to be able to keep that team together much longer.

    Starting next year Chet & Jalen Williams start new contracts both earning $41.25m and they'll be over the 2A by almost $30m.


    Hartenstein and Dort are on team options for $28.5m & $18.2m.

    The following year SGA goes from $40m to $60m on a 35% max extension.

    They are going to have to make some tough decisions.

    They aren't likely to remain as good as they have been the past two years - After next year they likely drop off some.


    San Antonio is different ... Wemby has a couple more years on the rookie deal but he'll qualify for a 30% max instead of the 25%. Who knows what the rest of that roster looks like by then because some of them are older and others are still on rookie deals. Outside of Wemby, Castle and Harper that team probably looks much different in a couple years.
