    The magic managed to get 2 1sts for a guy they don't have and hasn't been in the league for a decade. Genius!

    Actually Sasha generated a No. 1 ("Single Ladies") and a No. 3 ("If I were a boy") and a No 5 ("Halo") - so ... maybe.

    I think that the further out of playoff contention a team is, the less they'd be willing to give up.

    The Nets gave up what they did for a chance to contend this year and next year. If they waited until the trade deadline, they wouldn't reasonably expect to still contend this year....only next year. So why would they offer a better trade package for a lesser return?

    Just curious if OP still thinks we should have waited until the deadline after seeing what Stone managed to get for Oladipo.

    Could have traded him over the summer, but the FO, and many idiots on this board, said "don't trade him."

    Even after he made it pretty clear he wasn't interested in staying.
