Mo Bamba is an unrestricted free agent now.. People might laugh but he was actually pretty good last season and has bulked up a lot. He can shoot 3s really well and is a great shot blocker. He could make a big impact on the right team and wouldn't cost a tonne.. He'd be perfect for a team like the Bulls or Raptors that need a Centre and rim protection badly.
he cant defend, often lost and has a small motor. if you're looking for rim protection he's not it

Nets can't take Booker in a trade unless they trade Simmons first.

Stupid NBA rule says you can't have more than 1 player on your roster with a rookie extension that you traded for.

He can block shots but I agree he gets lost sometimes and isn't locked in every possession.

They ain't trading Durant for them 2 players.
Throw in picks and that's a better deal than they're going to get from almost anyone else.

They're rebuilding if they trade KD and Kyrie. They don't want vets like Vooch and DeMarr. They need all-star calibre talents that are 25 and under as well as picks.

So KD couldn't win with Kyrie and Harden but he's going to win with a 38 year old CP3 and Mikal Bridges? Okay...
Last year Kyrie was injured and missed playoffs and Harden played injured
This year Kyrie had the vaxx shit and Harden was traded
So you can't really say KD couldn't win with them, keep the context please.

Suns are an established unit, replace Booker with KD, that's championship. Just my view.

How do you know they're rebuilding and not trying to win now? You're just assuming.

As the 2 time MVP that nearly averages a triple double as a big, he's more than worth it.
The way the NBA runs is salary cap is so stupid.

That's more likely though.. Why would they trade KD for vets that won't get them a title? Then two years from now they have nothing to show for it.

Bulls in shambles that out of all the good shot blocking centres available, they proceed with Drummond lol. All offense and no defense wont get them anywhere in the post season.

You're ignoring the part about CP3 breaking down in every playoffs every season dating back to Houston though.. With Booker or KD, they'd still be a piece or two short of winning a title because CP3 can't make it through 4 playoff series..

My trade was just as a Bulls supporter. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously.

Also Kyrie, Simmons & DeRozan would be a deadly combo.

Marks said he wants 2 all stars for KD.

KAT somehow got not much less than Jokic which is crazy. I know who I'd rather have...
There should be no limit on how much you can pay a player and there should be a $200 million hard cap.
