There are very few trades I would even entertain trading Jaden. This would be tough to turn down, but I don't think you can get all that either.

Has nobody been reading the news? No way Turner and Giannis are going to be on the same team next year

How far off is it? The Dallas pick would be a prime candidate for the number one pick next year with the new rules. Charlotte would be vaulting their defense into another realm with Jaden and Rudy. And they still have all their picks going forward. Naz would be a prime pairing with Coop.

Turner told Giannis, Hey, if you can get away with it, you do you.

I'm not that concerned with that deal (Giannis showing up late for meetings and such) that I wouldn't trade for him.
My belief is that was his way of passively aggressively trying to force the Bucks to move him, by creating bad juju behind the scenes. I think he had enough, but is too "nice" of a guy to just come out and demand to be traded. I'm sure he's conflicted too with having spent so much time there successfully and having won a ring. He doesn't want to burn the bridge or alienate the fans he played for, for so long.
