Fucking West is stacked!

Nobody wanted Lowry. We all watch Heat games

Buyout market should be active so hopefully they can get a player or 2

I don't get what Toronto is doing. OG's value will never be higher. I would have dealt him whatever the best deal was. He's a nice player but he's never gonna be a star.

Lot of teams saving money

2nd round picks seem to only matter as currency to throw in to make deals happen. No one actually wants to hold on to them and pick players with them LOL

And just like that the Warriors trade 5 2nds to get GPIII back lol

2nd round picks are pretty useful, but only to use to trade to another team

 

[msgkings322]

Bey going to Atlanta.

Dubs getting……Collins?

Capela?

Lmao…No.

Dubs traded Wismen for 5 seconds?

Ewwww

Looks like they traded Wiseman for GPIII

 

[wildturkey]

Good point. They could have flipped a couple of those guys for more picks.

...or to win back to back to back MVPs

Deals can still be completed if the talks were underway I believe...

Yeah, mine happens a lot more

Only if the paperwork was sent I believe

 

[msgkings322]

Wow.

Basically a complete flop of a #2 overall.

too bad. But if it resets the tax for the Dubs, that is worth literally hundreds of millions.

Flop? They drafted him and won another title!

 

[shopson67]

Sure, if you want to nitpick lol.

This management team won the title in 2019 and stopped working. It's crazy how bad they've been since then.

So what now, they're going to re-sign Van Vleet and Trent and hope next season things shape out differently and OG doesn't become despondent about wanting out? Oh and also re-sign Poeltl (why the hell would Poeltl want to stay lol)?

I'm flabbergasted. Should've let Masai walk in the off-season and take his merry band of assholes with him.

I have had some time and I don't hate this trade near as much. I did not realize 2 of those 2nds are from the Jazz, who are still attempting to tank. The gap between the 1st the Wolves and the jazz second should not be that much. This trade actually recouped some of the value of the Gobert abortion of a trade.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Gonna be a really nice closeout to the season.

I just don’t get not trading Trent

That was the one guy I thought for sure would move

Especially to get a very flippable laker pick
