Could also add Nas from Blazers and a 2025 1st Rd from Nets (from Phoenix), both going to Pacers to even the trade out a bit.

Don’t understand wanting to pair Turner with Grant. Blazers would be the worst rebounding frontcourt/team in the entire league.

The Nets giving up picks but also acquiring 2 younger players seems like a schism.
In exchange for giving up one of the best wings in the league, talent-wise and contract-wise, plus 2 firsts, they get #3 and Simons. That doesn’t line up.
Blazers also getting #7 from Indiana doesn’t make sense. That at the very least should be going to the Nets. Or the Pacers just keep it since that pick is on their timeline more than Myles is?
I’m struggling to see why Indiana and the Nets like this trade.

Maybe you’re right. I didn’t think to account for the value of Bridges being on a good contract. Simons + #3 is a lot though.
