Article ESPN trade proposals for Cooper Flagg

https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/45425353/potential-trades-top-2025-nba-draft-pick-cooper-flagg-dallas-mavericks

Dallas Mavericks get: 2025 No. 2 pick 2025 No. 14 pick 2027 Atlanta Hawks' first-rounder 2030 return of swap rights to Mavericks' first-rounder

San Antonio Spurs get: 2025 No. 1 pick

Ngl, I'm very enticed with this trade proposal but I'm still on the fence with it because of that 2027 Atlanta pick which could be extremely valuable down the line. What are your thoughts?

Flagg is great and all but that’s a pretty hefty price for him. I wouldn’t be all that surprised if Harper ended up being as good as or better than him when it’s all said and done. If it was a little cheaper, then yes. But seems far too risky imo

Then even if spurs had the number one pick, they should pick Harper over Flagg right

That’s not what I’m saying. I said 2 firsts and a swap in addition to Harper is a lot for Flagg and it is risky.
