Kevin Durant traded to the Suns (and other deadline deals)

[Iggloo]

Houston Rockets must be ecstatic!

 

[Gman]

We need a big or a wing today. The bench won’t do last night again like that

Maybe.

Yet, the Celtics may very well have the best bench in the NBA as is.

 

[Iggloo]

Sixers got clowned by the Celtics back ups last night. Shooting for days on end! Fucking Hauser and Blake Griffin going splash brothers last night haha. You guys have a great team.

Yes, the Celtics are hands down the best in the east and just seem to match up really well against Philly. It's very depressing

 

[mr.hockey4242]

I now suspect top 4 in the west will be Nuggets/ Grizzlies/ Suns/Clips

Bottom 4 likely look something like Warriors/ Kings/Pels/Lakers

West playoffs sounds amazing on paper

You dont think the Mavs make the top 8?

 

[shopson67]

CP3 was gonna retire ringless, now he got hope

He'll find a way to ruin this.

 

[shopson67]

Bev/Walker/that other 1st for Dinwiddie?

Maybe one of the wings, but certainly not Dinwiddie.

 

[shopson67]

Nets building around Simmons.

He could be moved too. Nets could still be very busy, need to sort out that suddenly even more unbalanced roster.

 

[Jordan23]

Nets really giving up this year huh?

 

[SJ76]

The only kind of team KD can win on

I have to agree here. Such a good player too. I still don’t understand why him and Kyrie couldn’t make more noise.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

On paper yes.

Lots of injury risk there too though.

Not a forgone conclusion.

Warren is literally never healthy lol

The Celtics broke them in last year's playoffs.

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

CP3
Book
Warren
Durant
Ayton

That's a championship squad right there.

That's a squad that won't stay healthy right there.

 

[Duffman]

The cycle continues, the Nets got absolutely fleeced on their trade for Ben Simmons, and now the Suns got absolutely fleeced on their trade for KD. Don’t worry Suns fans, give it a few years and you’ll be on the receiving end of a huge fleece.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Has a team in 5th place ever done this lol it’s just crazy. Even with just KD they had pieces to go out and trade for help.

 

[Inquisitor95]

I have to agree here. Such a good player too. I still don’t understand why him and Kyrie couldn’t make more noise.

Because they're both spoiled brats?

 

[Inquisitor95]

Guess the Nets have finished cutting themselves down now.

i mean KD is getting older, I'm not sure he has another large trade of assets left in him

You can see it pretty clear. "The best 5 man +/- in the NBA is the Suns starting unit. Unfortunately, due to lack of minutes, it does not qualify on our leaders list".

They need to get a medic superteam for this superteam.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Cavs need to go after DFS. Windler and 2nd’s. Nets are blowing it up

They're straight quitting. Were pretty much locked into the playoffs. Still, they weren't going to win a title with Durant and Irving, anyway.
