    If we could get a young player and some draft Capital that would be fire.

    I can’t imagine this to be true. Boston has no reason not to just add a center and run it back. Maybe the org has had a falling out. Giannis is the only trade that made sense at all.

    Not sure if you heard, but DFS is currently untouchable. Rockets are committed to the man.

    I'm not sure whether it is true or not.

    I'd want to keep him as long as possible. I do think Boston is a well-run team. Brown does make a lot. While I wouldn't do it, it would not be completely surprising to me if Boston doesn't want 70% of their cap tied to 2 players unless both players are better than Brown.

    Not sure I like the fit for us but what the hell:
    Atlanta: Kevin Durant
    Boston: NAW, Sengun
    Houston: Brown, kuminga, Heild, Garza

    Seemingly interesting paragraph in that article about the change in vision. Hopefully at least.

    I also found it odd the rockets just now tweeted and announced they're hosting a draft party for day 1 of the draft. When we have no pick? Probably nothing but why have a 1st day draft party at all? Just to sell the new merch?

    We traded our bench pieces Patrick Beverly, Montrezl Harrell, Lou Will and a FRP. Lou Will alone cost a FRP to get and we traded him not even a year later.

    You are right Cp3 trade was done in the offseason, but that made the trade worse cuz we could have just signed him outright instead of trading for him. The pieces we gave up are all positive assets worth SRPs or low FRPs, in fact Lou Will PatBev and Harrell were responsible for dragging Clippers to the playoffs after the trade.

    There was no reason to trade for Cp3 since Morey maxxed up him anyway.

    It was an INCREDIBLE trade, a true rare A+. Yes we traded some junk/bench guys but it was for a guy who was still a top 10 player in the league for that season. I know you hate Morey so you're gonna be negative, i'm sure you could even be negative about the harden trade.

    With Brown on the block see if the Celtics would take KD and Tari and picks.

    It was always implied that Jaylen was what Boston was offering for Giannis but it was just confirmed by Shams after the actual trade occurred. Hopefully officially being included in a trade offer spurs Brown to act out even more and the Celtics are forced to trade him. I'd gladly give them KD and picks for Brown.

    If it weren't for the hammy, no question the trade was a great one.

    We got what we deserved, we knew EXACTLY what can happen, and we let it happen anyway. Who was our backup PG after JH and CP?

    CP3 is a great player, but his contracts are killer. He had a serious problem being the President of NBPA, and he'd never let go of money for a chance at the chip.

    Chris Haynes, wrong again :D.

    Bucks was using the C's to drive up Heat's price. Same as Lopez used the Rockets to leverage his extension.
