Remember when we used to get excited about Budinger's talent? Now we have Ariza, Brewer, Smith and Dekker....... DEEP!
this trade serves no purpose literally. Was it a trade just for the shake of a trade? What is Indiana doing? Bored and say let's make a useless trade?
Could you imagine the backlash if this said "They got another black guy"? WHEW!!! You'd have to wear your flamesuit for a year! Racism still lives but now only towards whites.
Anyone remember when he hit multiple Three Pointers to Beat Portland a Few years ago. Also his Dunk contest was Historic by wearing a Phoenix Throwback Jersey. Good dude, solid Professional. #Rockets
That probably means they believe he's better than Paul George will ever be. They'll wait for George to have a good season and then trade him when the trade value is higher. Chase will then take over and be the face of the franchise.
