Other than adding the additional 2nd to the cost, the final outcome looks more balanced/useful/generally better.


We dumped Morris and KCP for Bradley, after taking that into consideration, I need a barf bag.

To be honest, KCP on an $80 million deal wouldn't look too great right now either.

I'm not defending the horrid Blake trade. Just pointing out that SVG avoided another disaster thanks to KCP's greed.

Anybody does up and comes down on a foot is spraining an ankle. Blake punching somebody and breaking his hand is not injury prone-ness, it's immaturity and stupidity.


You've got some odd qualifiers for what is and is not injury prone.

If a guy consistently misses time with injuries. That's literally injury prone, regardless of the reason why. Like Kevin Love, his body breaks easy while playing competitive sports. There's nothing they can do about it, it's genetics. But, Blake is 100% an injury prone player, much like Reggie Jackson.

We're definitely beating an old drum, but I needed a bag when we renounced him for nothing. We could have had him on that one year deal too, or had one additional trade asset. Instead, we have two plus players, one cripple, and a bunch of minus players that no one wants.........
