Rich Paul suggesting the Bucks should trade for his client Jalen Johnson

1. What he is saying isn’t that bad, even though he gets a cut.

2. Kinda shocked at how specific this is

3. Jalen johnson plus the Pels pick could be really tempting, even if there isn’t much else.

4. Jalen plus 3-4 picks is my preferred of what I have heard honestly

5. Why would an active agent for an active player say this unless he’s talked to the player about it? What if Jalen doesn’t want to play in Milwaukee? Unless they have had this discussion before 🤨

6. Idk dawg. I like Jalen Johnson but youd really have to sweeten it up with crazy picks.

7. Jalen is legit. I wanna keep Giannis but if he has to go def dont want Kat Shamet and a bag of chips. Jalen and 3 1sts

8. For all the back seat GMs out there, this is why you hang on to prospects like Chris Livingston a little too long. It’s all favor trading and it seems like Rich and Horst have a great working relationship.

9. Yeah like what the Hawks have to offer. Can you trade coaches mid season? Can we offload Doc? If so him and Kuzma should be in the Giannis trade.

10. Takes two to tango

11. Ngl, this is probably the best-case scenario. The NBA is known for giving the number 1 pick to teams whose franchise player departs.

12. His description of what the Bucks should look for is spot on, but I’m not sure Hawks give up JJ. That’s the guy they want to pair WITH Giannis.

13. JJ, Risacher, 3 firsts and a couple seconds
