    They were as close to getting Bridges as one can get until the Evil Nets said No more asking around.....

    Not really sure what they are doing up in Detroit, other than losing.

    booooooo! Although I guess it's better than seeing him go to some place like the Lakers and somehow turn everything around. I just want to see one reasonably big name get moved today.

    The play-in has absolutely annihilated some of these poor fanbases' hopes of ever seeing another championship--none of these owners want to rebuild while they're making $$$

    Stone gives second rounders like they are candy - but won't take them back for useless players.

    Stone has given away or passed up so many draft picks that when I saw him in the elevator at the Toyota Center he handed me a Wizards second rounder for smiling at him.

    I refuse to believe Stone looked at this roster and thought to himself, “Yep. That’s good enough!”

    My opinion of him isn’t very high, but to do nothing to address the holes they have is pretty unacceptable if they are really trying to win this year.

    he likely looked at this roster and was blinded by the franchise player's greatness

    Play-In Tournament has made it so that you either home grow your players or you aren't doing ****.

    at least Morey shed House's $4.3M contract with only 1 very late 2nd rounder, it cost Stone FIVE SRPs to get rid of TyTy/Garuba's $5.6Mil.!!

    Hard to believe that the nets didn't take the 20 first round picks that they were offered for Bridges.... :confused:
