HAHAHA! What billionaire needs the money? The worlds of NBA owners are pretty far removed from most people's realities.

Yeah plus selling the team and quitting the show in the same day is awfully suspicious

So the Spurs waived Jabari Rice, and gave a two-way to the unfortunately named David Duke Jr. from the G_League, probably better than Poole.

It may hurt our tank, but I'd love to see this bowling ball on our team for the rest of the season, he knows how to use his weight to block and rebound.

OKC makes a lot of sense for Durant- maybe Philadelphia although I imagine Morey would play hard ball and try to keep Maxey.

It’s days like today where I’m thankful we don’t have Monty Williams as our coach tied to a long term deal. He’s making 13 mil a year!! :lol:

Also lol Beal, damaged goods.

I think this story is overblown.

Yeah, of course Durant is frustrated. But that's not the same thing as Durant demanding a trade. Durant picked this team and supported the Beal trade. He knows he has to live with the consequences. Durant, more so than any other player in the league, is not in the position to bail on his team to join some other team that is in better position to win a title.

The New York Knicks acquired forward OG Anunoby in a trade that sends RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and a 2024 second-round pick to the Toronto Raptors, the teams announced Saturday.

The Knicks, who are also getting forward Precious Achiuwa and guard Malachi Flynn in the deal, have been pursuing Anunoby for a significant period of time and are determined to re-sign him as a free agent this summer, sources told ESPN.

Let the in-season trades begin! :clap:

Barrett's been a bust in the NBA, & so has Precious. Meanwhile, Quickley is having a down year, & for that matter, Anunoby is as well. Malachi Flynn -- whom a lot of us liked (me included) -- hasn't been able to establish himself as a solid NBA player.

Not sure there's going to be much help for either team in this trade. Well... maybe all the guys involved will get energized by the change, & then everyone will benefit!

Interesting approach from Toronto, valuing young players over picks. Hard to think that Barrett was more than salary filler although the home town connection might have influenced it( though it shouldn’t have of course).
Anunoby’s contract next year is going to surprise a lot of people I bet, and might make the trade look a lot worse from New York’s perspective. His agent is the son of the Knicks GM!
