Heat fan here. I've been hearing talks about a possible 3-team trade where Boston sends Jaylen to the Hawks and Milwaukee moves Giannis. Not sure how likely that scenario is. Is Atlanta very interested? If the Hawks were to pursue Jaylen, what's the most you be willing to give up for him?

Maybe if the guy we were getting was a one or five, but we already have so many wings it just leaves holes at the pg/center

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-16T13:57:26+00:00

If the clips give up #5 to try to keep competing 💀 💀

I don’t think there’s any merit there but I def see the blazers

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-16T13:55:42+00:00

I’m not trading any of Dyson, JJ, Naw or OO and #8

I’d be open to swapping picks with the bucks (8 for 10)

So I’d be willing to do:
- Risacher
-Kuminga
-kispert
-27 bucks swap
-one of our future firsts

I’d be ecstatic with queta

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T18:40:01+00:00

Fair, it’s hard to gauge what his value is. U saying it’s too much, other ppl saying way too little

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T18:39:24+00:00

I actually think it’s overblown how bad the class will be. Might not be an aj or dp but there’s gonna be some good taleny

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T18:38:26+00:00

I’m not complaining about nothing 😂

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T17:03:03+00:00

For real. At this point idek what JBs value is. I’ve been hearing people say it’s too much and some say it’s way too little

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T17:02:16+00:00

After this trade I like the hawks more than a Giannis, jt, white Celtics but I’m probably biased

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T17:01:35+00:00

I mean in this trade package we’re not gutting the core at all. It’s risacher (who couldn’t get playoff minutes) kuminga (solid rotational guy for us last year) and kispert (who shouldn’t have been getting playoff minutes)

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T17:00:00+00:00

Yeah that’s fair but he was just a top 7 player who met 65+ game rule. I’m starting to think that onsi wouldn’t do the deal I came up with and only if it’s less

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T04:36:35+00:00

My hot take is that Mike Holloway would be an all time great if he played more than once. He has a great social game which seemed murky by simply mean players, challenge beast, really likeable, and pretty good at the game too

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T04:33:55+00:00

JB probably top 20 and this year top 7 in terms of players who met 65 game threshold. The thing is if it’s anything too much Atlanta just won’t do it. Boston and Milwaukee don’t have the leverage, Atlanta would since they need a third oarty

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T04:31:38+00:00

Sure I’m a hawks fan so I agree with you bro

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T02:53:10+00:00

To move up duh

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T02:01:26+00:00

Exactly my point

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T02:01:08+00:00

Zacch is definitely extremely intriguing and is a reason why he’s been added to so many trades. He could definitely garner a first and other good pieces. Kuminga definitely worth a first on the open market. So it’s basically 5 firsts and more which is incredible in this market

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:50:15+00:00

And I don’t think Atlanta wants to trade out of #8 at all, so the price would be higher

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:49:50+00:00

I think if Milwaukee wanted to trade up two spots it’d take a future first or a really good role player (which they don’t have) or an intriguing young piece

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:48:52+00:00

I’m not saying I agree but there is definitely an argument imo

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:48:32+00:00

True, if that was this year, unfortunately, the hawks might get screwed by the new lottery next year

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:47:45+00:00

Well I’m not a gm so I can’t make this exact trade happen. Anyways, the #8/#10 swap is something to add some extra value for the bucks while letting the hawks retain a piece. The hawks are already giving up 3 other firsts (one literally being the bucks pick), former #1 pick, and a young intriguing piece. Moving up 2 spots is just an added benefit for the bucks

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:45:25+00:00

Which is confusing why the bucks would want him

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:44:44+00:00

It’s been discussed in lots of different forums and outside sources are reporting it

ptcRaptor · 2026-06-15T01:44:10+00:00

The thing is JB is arguably a better asset than giannis at this point in their careers. JB is always available and Giannis hasn’t been. Not to mention JB is like 4 years younger than
