    2025 and 2026 now became 2027 and 2029. I think you'll be fine.

    The ONLY bright side would be that Jabari could learn a lot from KD. He'd be a great mentor. I still don't want him at all though.

    Feigen said this deal has been discussed between the Rockets and Nets since January.

    This trade strikes me as quite stupid. Next year is supposedly a loaded draft and we just traded out of a prime position. Can someone make me feel better about this move?

    I love the idea of the trade. More picks later for less picks sooner when we already have so many young players to develop. The problem for me is that 2025 draft. Any recent draft other than that or 2023 and I'm probably down for it.

    If this is the case, that’s an asinine plan

    Well, if so, at least we have forewarning.

    Lube? Check.
    Pillow to bite? Check.

    Watching his game though. Playing against him in practice. I think it would help Jabari a lot. But again, and let me be clear, I do NOT want KD at all...

    Hopefully once Durant leaves PHX, they end up at the bottom of the west and we will have their picks. We don't exactly have room for more top picks. But I am on the fence about this.
