    How can Taylor not take a deal like that. That is effectively a Boston-Nets arrangement for them.


    This is the most outlandish situation I've ever seen, from all sides.

    Im ok with 4 future 1st round picks

    Its all or nothing, you cant have two superstars lose 2-3 years for nothing and then start from the beginning.

    I would rather have a fire sale than give up four first rounders. This is fake news. Morey doesn’t sell low.

    We gotta make a change and Butlers really rhe only gamechanger out there. Although giving up picks for 2023 and 25 will be a killer

    The takeaway from this is that Morey knows the world is ending soon and we should all evacuate to Katy

    This is basically that. only not so because you have to assume Harden is still a superstar 4 years from now. Brooklyn didn't have that.

    It's still very risky...
