    @steddinotayto THE NEW CHRISTIAN WOOD IS RUI HACHIMURA.

    It’s a pipe dream but I’d take on that ridiculous contract just to get Rui

    Wall
    Harden
    Rui
    Tucker
    Wood

    not bad.

    Lol clutchfans wishe the Rockets could land Rui. The Wizards could get so much more for him.

    If Rockets are lucky, they will get a couple 2nd Rounders.

    That would be pretty great tbh, especially considering where we started this free agency, but i don't se Rui coming, maybe Brown (which would be ok for me).

    All we have to do is sell Tilman on the Japanese marketing opportunities.

    I wouldn’t take Wall’s contract unless Rui or a couple of unprotected 1st Rounders came. That contract is toxic....probably more so than Klay’s

    I agree, but Rui is probably pound for pound their best piece, i have to think they would just keep Wall if that's the price to move him.

    for all of Russ’ shortcomings he’s not a emo like Wall. Wall’s insecurities were in full view when they said they were building around Beal a few weeks ago.

    I mean, i agree, but both contracts are horrible, both players want out, Russ is older, Wall is more injured...if i'm Washington i still see no reason why i should move my best piece just to swap Wall with Russ tbh.

    Because Russ is an incredible player who won second place in MVP. Give it a month of him playing like early 2020 and we are going to be so happy there was no trade.

    While technically true, I believe one reason the offense tanked is cuz the switch all defense tired players out. They got no legs from scrambling on every play thats why their 3 pt shots become airballs and clankers.

    If you watched the games when we got Covington the teams tarted out strong after the deadline and then went on a losing streak before Covid happened. We started the playins the same, started out strong and got a lead on OKC before the wheels came loose.

    but hopefully you're right again ;)
