    If after all this bloodletting, we still have KPJ on the roster I’m going to lose it…

    You think we tanked for KJ, Josh and Ty Ty. KJ had somewhat of a skill. Josh and Ty Ty were awful. Josh had a terrible attitude and would throw subliminal shots on social media.

    Much needed consolation trades. Way too many young guys, so this is much needed

    I don't get it.

    Why trade KJ for 2nd rounders that are unlikely to ever become as good as KJ.

    He had another cheap year ahead of him. We could have just waited till the trade deadline to make this move or did a sign and trade next free agency if we really didn't want to pay him.

    Can we trade in all these 2nd rounders for a stuffed Clutch Bear?

    I think Eason is clearly going to be playing 20 min a game at PF.

    Center- Sengun 28-30, Jock 12, Smith 8
    PF-Smith 24, Eason 24.

    KMJ is a PF in my mind. This clears it out for Tari IMO.

    Can’t wait for the comprehensive breakdown and autopsy of today’s events.

    Between the flurry of trades and the Twitter meltdown, I can’t keep up.

    Sure he’s good, just not a PG…also not a good culture guy, and also he’s immature and unreliable.

    I’m ready for him to be good for somebody else, especially if we are making over the whole roster and dropping $80mm on Brooks in the name of ‘culture’.

    He’s moving the guys who aren’t part of the future and people on here losing their minds. It was always a situation where we would keep 6-7 young guys at most.

    Trading KJ Martin, Garuba, TyTy and Josh Christopher for basically nothing is not a good look.

    I mostly agree. Could we not have dumped all of those players on somebody like the wizards and gotten a protected future first?
