    Was Perkins the bad contract that hindered keeping Harden? Ibaka was really good as well.

    Ibaka's contract was the last straw but in hindsight, Harden would have been a diva there as well.

    One headache less. You miss out on 8 years of great heliocentric basketball.

    C Wood was indeed traded for a first round pick. His signing was one of the better ones made by Stone since he got a FRP and a veteran presence like Boban for free.

    Anyway some poster I forgot who kept arguing with me and telling me Whitmore was too slow to play the 2.

    After SL and preseason we can out that to rest, Whitmore can play 2-4 and at 19 barely scratching his potential. Every year of the rebuild Stone basically got 2 studs ans I'm not sure which duo I like the best Jalen/Sengoat, JaTari or Amen and Cam.

    They didn't dump the FRP they traded down and got 2 more 2nd rounders as well as the 29th pick.

    I don't know how you can still argue CWood wasn't worth a FRP when he literally got traded for a FRP. Lemme guess you never been wrong in your life amirite?

    Bruh just admit you were wrong it ain't that hard. How can you logically argue CWood wasn't worth a FRP when facts show he was traded for a FRP?

    That's a good problem to have you have an all NBA defense guy coming off the bench. If Fertita asks him Stone can say we are paying the starter 6M so don't complain about the 85M bench.
