    I love this trade but this take is totally possible. JG truly might figure it out, that's a real possibility.

    Wow. it happened.

    Jalen blows but he might be ok one day. I'm fine with giving up the 10th pick. Moving Dillon clears up some of the backlog. 5 2nd round picks are 5 2nd round picks.

    Master class by daddy stone? a lotta people are saying

    Since we traded away two of our starters for one starter, we need Eason to be healthy, Cam Whitmore or Reed to step up into that 8-9th man rotation piece for us.

    Time to trade Fred for Harden

    Sign CP3 and Russ in free agency and finally have the team we deserved in 2019

    Got rid of 2 of the 3 guys i wanted gone and got a guy who should drastically improve spacing.

    Don't love it, benadryl KD is 37, but I like it

    It has to be more than an upgrade though. We pushed all in for a championship. We have two years to do it assuming all goes perfectly with Durant.

    I don’t know behind the scenes but the better offer we could’ve gave seemed like Landale, Holiday, Sheppard, brooks 10 and 2 of our own first later down the line plus the 2nds for KD.

    FVV/DLO?
    Amen/Jalen
    KD/Cam
    Tari/Bari
    Sengun/Adams

    Love the trade. If we had KD instead of Jalen we win the GS series. Most likely get to West Finals.
