SMALL – Tyler Ulis, Marquese Chriss and a 2018 1st round pick (via Miami) for Elfrid Payton and Jonathan Isaac

The two teams try a new look swapping PGs and PFs. Maybe a change of scenery does all four players good. Phoenix sends a 1st round pick as Payton is the best player in this deal and has potential to be a John Wall type.

BIG –  Marquese Chriss, Alex Len, Jared Dudley, Tyson Chandler and 2 1st round picks (2018 and 2019 via Miami) for Aaron Gordon, Nikola Vucevic and Bismack Biyombo

A Suns front court of Gordon and Vucevic with Booker and Jackson would be exciting. Chriss is an athletic PF in a similar mold to Aaron Gordon. Alex Len is only 25 and could be a solid starting C. Orlando gets rid of Biyombo’s awful contract with two veteran leaders and they get two 1st round picks. There have been worse trades.
