    Why? So he can fumble every single Amen Thompson pass?

    I really like Tyty as a backup, but Rockets have FVV and Amen while OKC has Giddy and Wallace. All four are way better prospects. Wonder what happens to Tyty...

    Yeah, no doubt. I like him and thought he was our best point guard last year.

    One uses multiple assets to dump his own recent 1st round picks. The smart one gets those same picks with assets coming in when trading for them. Lol

    There's either some 4d chess where we already have a trade set up to get some of those pieces back, or Stone is the worst negotiator in the league.

    OK but what is he going to do with them along with the 60 million first round picks they have?

    if this was in-game presti would receive a taunting violation technical ejection (after brutally posterizing stone)

    If Presti got Tyty and Garuba that means that are about to be great.

    Stone looking foolish right now. I didn't care about this whole asset management ****, but when Presti is the one reaping the benefits, I hate it.

    Stone looks so foolish. Lost tyty and garuba for nothing all to bring in a center to replace Sengun.

    Starting to think that anti Sengun stuff is real. no way you try this hard and fail so absurdly to bring in a center and not hate sengun.

    Daryl Morey said it's about an arms race. It's good to have that **** in the bank. They will cross that bridge when they come to it. Last year OKC got to the play in and this year they added 3 more first round picks (chet, tyty, destiny) and more.

    i knew Stone wasn't the best GM. His drafting masked his bad asset management, but this gotta be the worst thing i have ever read. When it's so ridiculous it doesn't look real, Stone deserves all the criticism he's going to get.

    A lot of people on clutchfans peeped how bad Stone was moving during the whole Harden stuff with Dipo etc. I was sleep. Maybe I was still grieving the loss of winning houston bball. I'm awake now. This is so bad even causals to the arm chair GM game can see how bad this is.
