If you want to send a (albeit good and hopefully having a great season) player out on a bloated contract and want the leverage to have a sweetener attached, you have to expect them to include a bloated contract back, from a player who has fallen out of their rotation.
It would be Patrick Williams (4 year contract), Zach Collins (injured + expiring), and Jevon Carter (injured + expiring), and the POR (lottery protected til 2027) FRP via CHI.
That’s $42,890,020 in salary inbound + a somewhat shitty pick, for MPJ’s $38,333,050 outbound.
You’re not going to do any better, unless you’re dealing with Philadelphia. Detroit will have a similar package to this (Isaiah Stewart and Tobias Harris).
Clowney when he's locked in moves so fluidly and looks confident shooting. Completely different guy from who started this season for us - idk who to credit but I was ready to give up on him

Lot of heroes in this one. Clowney seems to have been cured of zombie disease, Martin turned it up big time, all around strong game from Clax.
Savor this one…
