    I’m disappointed. I just saw highlights of him and got excited. He seems like a great talent.

    Disappointed in this trade. Makes no sense to me at all. At least they didn't sell it.

    Every pick counts, for now I like the move. Time to wheel and deal.

    Dillon Brooks is a consummate professional and I hope he retires a rocket

    I'm cool with the move. We need all the salary space we can muster . Even though a 2nd round contract isn't guaranteed , you wouldn't want to draft a guy and then have to worry about how to keep him and free up space at the same time . Better to put off the pick until next year .

    Plus there is a decent chance the pick will be better than 45

    I watched the game where he beat Lonzo balls team last year and thought he was clutch for sure

    It's a 2nd round pick. Why not just throw this one in?
