Understand that wasn’t directed at you solely. I had that debate with several posters who flat said we couldn’t afford them which isn’t and wasnt true . We absolutely can and I said that yrs ago
You are right my friend.

We can afford them.

I just dont think we should pay all of them when we have glaring needs through out the team.

You are correct and have posted the numbers to support your contention.

Rivera isn't known for his trading prowess so I am surprised somebody coughed up a 3rd. I figured somebody would have offered a 5th.

This is the same GM who got a 3rd and 5th for arguably the best LT in the NFL. The NFL knows that Rivera can be fleeced and other GMs will take advantage of our weak front office.

I would think a contender would offer a 2nd for Chase on Monday. There must be some market to land Chase.

Welll then....

I wonder if Harris is telling Rivera that if they lose, open up the phone lines?

I highly doubt Rivera would hoist up the white flag and start trading players, but I don't know. If Harris tells him to proceed, he might not have a choice.

That being said, I don't think Harris would do something like this and start making demands. He just doesn't seem like that kind of owner.

If we do lose tomorrow, and a semi firesale happens, the season will pretty much be officially over. I believe Magic is telling Rales/Harris to can Rivera and start planning for 2024.

Not sure if I am remembering correctly but I think he got rid of most of the fat from the 76ers and Devils ... took the loss for a couple of years ..... trust the process was the motto.

I'd say trading depends on what you can get back.
