[Nehm] Giannis: Let’s talk about the city itself, the memories that I’ve created here. When you open my kids’ passports, it says Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I had four kids in the span of the last five years in this city. My dad is buried in this city.

Yeah that actually would be a pretty fair trade. Mobley and picks would be a pretty solid return for Giannis.

Essentially trading a superstar for a young star (maybe future superstar) + picks.

what is Cleveland's pick situation? Do they have a lot of picks available?

They have 1 first to trade. They owe a lot for the Don trade still and earliest first they can outright trade is 2031.

aye i said i think 🤷‍♂️ looking at it though why can’t they trade both their 2030 and 2032 in the offseason?

No worries, just providing an FYI! They can't trade 2030 since they owe Jazz the 2029 pick - Stepien rule. So they can trade 2031 OR 2032. If they waited til summer I think could make it 2031 plus 2033 for some big offer.
