smart ways to go about it.

a haul for are generally not available - mid to late 20s, star, no major injury history. Bane and Bridges are two recent examples of such trades, and maybe those teams regret them?

Giannis is one of the best players in the game. You definitely should give up a haul, but I think they're are ...

3) acquiring team.
4) What makes any of these deals successful or worth it? A championship? Multiple? Is it team context?

The article does a good job of discussing recent deals, and they haven't been great. But one of the points that I think it also misses is that the guys you'd want to trade ...

Unless Sheehan is now the closer...

I crawled around on the basement floor with my kid for a while the other day, and I woke up in the middle of the night with an intense pain in my lower back.

I'd probably just try to make Giannis and Johnson together work. Just go huge. Trade Trae and see what happens.

Spacing is probably horrific haha

Please elaborate

It would eventually launch them way into the second apron, but you'd have 2 of 3 best players in the world, a top 15-20 guy, and another right behind him.

I don't mind NYC when I've visited, but it noticeably smells worse than any other major city I've been to.
