The price is amazing! To get Durant & Bills, the Suns are equivalent to paying 12 first rounds and 6 swaps

Today, ESPN reporter Zach Kram wrote an article about the operation of the Sun in recent years.

Zach Kram wrote: "In general, in order to get Durant and Bill, the Suns gave out five first-round picks, five swap rights, Mikal Bridges, Cameron Johnson and Chris Paul. And when these three players were later traded by their new owners, they exchanged a total of seven first-round picks and one swap rights.

"To add up all these assets, the price paid by the Suns to get Durant and Bill is actually equivalent to 12 first-round picks and 6 swap rights." Until 2032, they will not be able to control any of their first-round picks. (This algorithm may be a bit inflated, because for example, Bridges is unlikely to be worth five first-round picks by himself in 2023, although the New York Knicks are willing to pay this price a year later. In addition, the Wizards and the Nets also took over major contracts when trading Paul and Johnson, which may also increase the number of draft picks they exchanged for. But in any case, the total cost of getting Durant and Bill is staggering.)"
