    Will wait and see to judge... obviously this is step 1 of 2 moves.

    I liked Tyty, but with FVV and Amen he wasn't going to get minutes. Garuba? Don't care at all. Could play great defense but couldn't catch a ball and best case scenario for him is just a guy off the bench who hustles

    I think the move was to clear cap space to go after Siakum. Kpj and Kmj would be part of that trade. We have to wait and see.

    Why are some of ya'll acting like Garuba and Washington are Sengun and Green? They were never going to crack our rotation. Let's wait and see what happens next before calling for the franchise to fold.

    This is like when everyone lost their minds after trading RoCo. Let’s see what the corresponding move is.

    He is a sight to behold: 300lbs launching and connecting from three. It’s almost like watching ECW at 11pm before off brand hard core was a thing.

    Turner would be good... For the right price. We better not give up a core player for him

    TyTy is okay but we didn’t have a spot for him and Garuba has basically no value, so whatever we get back is fine :)

    Myles Turner make sense, he is the same type of player as Lopez.

    If there is no corresponding move, from a value perspective, this is one of the worst moves in NBA history.


    There has to be something.


    I guess we can hold out hope for Herro. Not gonna happen though.
