    Wow that’s a great trade! Keep all of the young guys and finally have a legitimate scorer. Impressive Stone!

    we got off his $36 mil overpaid contract. I agree he was gonna continue to get better, but he just ran out of development runway and wasn’t gonna be worth that money.

    Good value. Sorry to see Jalen Green never fulfil his potential with us, but it was the right time to move on. I think we are now one move away from being true contenders and have the pieces to make it happen. Giannis or Booker next.

    Not a back breaking trade but hate to see Green and Brooks go.

    Sucks to loose Dillon. Wasn’t a fan of his signing but he grew on me. The 5 second round picks stings a bit but getting Durant while keeping Jabari and getting rid of Green is lovely.

    If Jalen becomes a top player we’ll regret this, but I just don’t see it.

    We still have plenty of assets as well.
