I wouldn't call 3 first round picks nothing.

Lakers 2027 pick will be bottom half, Utah pick in 2027 will be lottery, and who cares about a 2031 pick.  Add in the fact that unless you are picking in the top 5, the odds of landing a superstar like Jarren Jackson Jr are slim at best.  Even if you pick in the top 5, the odds to get someone as good as him NOW, is slim.

I would have like to get him, I think he's an upgrade to Miles but team chemistry is really high right now and makes the most sense to do nothing 

Based on what the Jazz gave up, we could've given up 2 of the 3 2027 firsts we have, and our 2031 first, plus whatever bums off the bench make the contracts work like the Jazz did. 

This was a deal the Hornets could've easily done, without given up any of their studs.  You replace Moussa with Jaren Jackson Jr in the starting lineup, and this team is a top 3 or 4 team in the East.

Our front office failed us once again.

Would you trade for giannis if it included Kon? I personally wouldn't. If we can trade miles saliun and grant Williams plus like 4 firsts I would do it but if it includes miller melo or kon it would be a non starter for me.

Not BS, doesn't mean they'll get him but they are involved and talking with Milwaukee.

Huh?  I would trade my 5 year old son to the Bucks if I got Giannis back.
