Brooklyn should have just traded Durant last summer. The rumored Suns deal last summer (with Ayton) was better. They could have blown it all up last summer, got Ayton and a bunch of picks, sent Kyrie to the Lakers for both those FRPs, flipped Westbrook for some shit and been in a better spot. 4 FRPs for Durant is still pretty nice, but they'd be in a better spot had they blown it up. Sometimes its just too toxic to make things work

I mean in the end they have Claxton and Ayton and Claxton wouldn’t have worked but they should have went about things differently. All this is not enough for having a superteam blow up so quick

Shooting Straight(ask Turkey if you don't know)

Deals like this ARE WHY I FUCKING HATE TRADE DEADLINE DAY. All of the excitment of that big blockbuster move are gone.

It's like a kid at Christmas, who has opened his big expensive gifts on Christmas eve

Technically the KD trade happened on Deadline Day, just really early on deadline day

If he can’t win on this team…he has no hope. Only thing they need to worry about is injuries.

Yep. Health right now is key. Doesn't help that KD is still banged up and CP3 and Book just coming off injuries. But still though, that's a squad if healthy. Nuggets got some competition

But you get my mini rant. It's like this....................

Some will know the team in my Avi.

We were Offering 4 guys at TDL. Boeser( who is a 40 goal/70 point guy), Demko (amazing goalie with room to improve), Scheen (A good Defenseive guy) and the Creme dela Creme, Our Captain Bo Hovart(50 Point, Jack of all Trades guy).

Hovart got dealt last week to Long Island. He would have probably been #1-#3 on guys trade bait boards come Mid-late February.

Just ruins it.

So is it safe to go to sleep yet or does Woj have any more bombs to drop in the middle of the night?

Knew this was coming. I bet they try to flip Dinwiddie and/or DFS too
