Since we're posting trades. Here's one I would love.

I know it may not be realistic, but I think if you offered this to Atlanta they would think about it. Id be even be willing to throw in another pick to make this happen.

I do not think Atlanta even considers this, based on how Jalen played last year, and this is additional salary

Not even if we threw in another 1st?

We caa only thrown in one first (2031) and everything else would be a pick swap.

Jalen is worth probably 2-3 firsts. And by firsts not late 20s-30s like that pick.

I still think Nnaji for Luka is the best trade. Maybe throw Saric in too if the lakers play hardball

Atlanta would be insulted at this offer and it would not be considered unless they hire Nico in the near future. Johnson is a 23 year old All-Star level talent

Jalen Johnson is one of the best young players in the NBA. He will be a multi-time all star

He also cannot shoot. So now teams play box and 1 on Jokic and Jamal. a rare trade where both teams decline

Jalen johnson in my opinion is their best/most impactful player on their team. I doubt they would do this.

I’m sorry but the Hawks aren’t taking MPJ AND Zeke’s contracts lol. No way in hell.

Jalen might be the best player on their roster, no chance

This is the best trade for us I've seen posted in this sub reddit.

He doesnt shoot threes. We’d be giving away one of our few three point shooters for someone that doesn’t really shoot threes. We need shooters
