Moving on from John Wall, the Wizards have since done this....

Turned that boy Russ into a whole lineup with a 6th man lol

 

is there supposed to be some kind of praise or something as if that list is impressive

 

Right lol. The Wizards will be lucky to make it past the play in tournament.

 

seriously confused by the point of the thread. like is it to laugh or what.

 

I think taking on Russ' contract was just the price for taking on Kuzma's trash ass.

 

not sure what was the rush with moving westbrook.. they were scared the the wizards will take John Wall off the table?

 

i see maybe 1 or 2 decent players at best. and dinwiddie was the one who decided he wanted to play for wash. but i wouldn't call any of this smart. the wizards still will suck

 

They turned a massive contract into a mediocrity treadmill eh. I'd be more impressed if they turned it into a bunch of draft picks

 

didnt the wizards also get the number#22 lakers pick as well tho

 

Have you seen what Morey turned the 76ers into? Same roster but with a pissed off Ben SImmons

 

The Wizards need to be selling high on Beal and tanking.

 

Stone did what the Wizards should be doing…being bad enough for a #2 overall pick and a young talent like Jalen Green

Why should we care that the Wizards GM ultimately turned Wall into a bunch of irrelevant players and signed Dinwiddie for 20 mil/yr??

 

But with a few more pieces, we will have a pretty decent team around Wall. If a few things go our way, we could be making a real push in 2023 even though we took on Wall’s contract.

 

Breaking news: Wizards swapped a 4 gallon bottle of water for 2 X 2 gallon bottles.

How'd they do?


(Wake me up when something exciting happens)



Also, they gave up more assets than just John Wall to get back that "haul"
2 x future firsts
2 x future 2nds

 

By trading Russ, we avoided giving our pick to OKC. And, we get Jalen.
Then, with the first rounder from the Wall deal, we get Sengun.
Not bad at all.
Then we use Wall's expiring in a deal for a young star at the deadline next year.(barring a buyout/trade for expirings & shorter deals than can be moved)

 

We are in a much better position than the Wiz. We will get a better haul for Wall than they have. I trust Stone to use that huge expiring salary to get a very nice young player and/or more draft capital to build the team. We just have to be patient and wait for the deadline or next year to cash Wall in. We got time.

 

And what does Dinwiddie have to do with Westbrook? did they get cap room in order to sign Dinwiddie? Also, where is the 2023 1st round Wizards pick that was 50% of the reason that we got Sengun?
