    In all seriousness, my confidence in Stone is as low as its ever been. This is the second straight deadline that he seems incapable of maneuvering in. In the modern NBA, the single most important time to capitalize on is the trade deadline. He has failed now two years in a row to do anything meaningful or even maintain the value of his players.

    Between two straight bad trade deadlines, bad trades, bad signings, etc. it's just getting old. I'm ready for a real GM here.

    and he had played in a lot of games and played as well as u could hope…Stone still couldn’t move him

    Stone fumbled big time…Stone was headed towards the finish line and then sprained his ankle and finished in last place

    smh

    We both had a RFP on the table for Gordon, and we didn’t have one. I call that… Schroder‘s Cat.

    Play me off, Johnny!

    Oladipo, Gordon — who do you think next deadline they’ll leak they have 1st(s) for?

    That about sums it up.

    A complete failure of a year for Stone so far.

    I’ve been legit excited about Gordon’s trade value all season long.
    Career year. Healthy.
    Should be on a playoff team.
    Open up minutes for the young players

    Or the more maniacal option.
    He wanted Wood and Gordon to stay.
    Kind of like when you put up a pair of Nike SB Dooms up for sale. You really don't want to sell them but if someone offers you $2,000, sure why not.

    Another deadline without Gordon being traded, I mean this has to be the 3rd or 4th where we really expected it to happen

    This year, truly disappointing as he needs to be on a contender...

    So for those keeping track, that's 2 trade deadlines where he's been a complete failure, an offseason where he was a complete failure, and a draft where he wasted the top pick.

    Again, how does Stone still have a job?

    How could be be more incompetent than he already has been?

    EG's shooting percentages are about to fall off a cliff. That man played his heart out in order to get traded.

    Nothing to play for now.
