YES

Damn I have low key always wanted Thaddeus Young on this team since he was in philly. I wanted him here with Lopez by his side but whatever I just like his game.

Not Thrilled with the KG trade, especially if the OKC one doesnt happen. I like the deal, i like thad young and we still get under the tax if we rerout perkins to philly.

OKC deal is the one to get excited over.

[CalamityX12]

DAMN.... I thank KG for his hard work and ethics, its going to BE REALLY MISSED... that hurts me as a fan but happy for him if this is what he wanted and not forced by King.

Young, you were the prize of many fans including Avery, lets see what you got....

[Shark]

Guess KG is retiring this year then.

I agree, and i'm worried that it seems that they might go the Utah route... i don't mind giving up Karasev to seal the deal... I WANT THE OKC TO TRADE TO HAPPEN

[Boarder Patrol]

KG for Thad is a really nice deal for you guys. Get a deal with OKC done and you can really start building a core of speed and athleticism, even if there'd still be some question marks.

Tired of wasting a roster spot on a guy that can't even play b2bs and is always getting severe minute limitation especially if we're barely getting into the playoffs. I'm not too worried about Young's cap hit cause it's not even like we're a free agent hotspot with this messy FO going forward.

I can say he helped Plumlee's growth tremendously

if we flip joe to the pelicans for eric gordan the 2012 you will be jacked!

[CalamityX12]

****, I got scared when I read OKC talking to Indiana.... Reggie for Hibbert makes sense for both clubs.... sh*t... don't stress us out OKC!!!

Plumlee/Jordan/Perkins
Thad/Jefferson
PJ3/Bogdanovic
Johnson/Anderson/Karasev
Jackson/Williams/Morris

Let's do it.

I have no problem with anyone who wants to rebuild. But pretending that this trash of a lineup you just listed is something to be excited about is delusional. Unless you are a Hawks fan there is nothing to be excited about here. Disappointment and blind hatred for Lopez and D.Will has clouded all sense of perception around here. These moves are not improvements. They are salary dumps pure and simple. Overrated mediocre coach with an even worse roster. Don't fool yourselves. You think its been bad? Wait! The dark days have yet to come my friends.

It's more athletic than what we have now, and honestly getting younger players is a lot better than staying pat and watching this garbage roster wallow away like they have all season long. Deron Williams is a dog, and Lopez is not even overrated anymore, he's a one dimensional soft player who doesn't make the team any better when he's on the floor or without him.

Excited? I would say I'm excited to see the team regaining flexibility and getting two young players in light of us not having draft picks. I'm looking ahead, what are you looking at??

I am looking at a fan base that despises the best player in the deal and wants him out at all costs. I am looking at posts about players fitting a mediocre coach who is kind of an A hole rather than a coach who fits the players

I am looking at a team that will go from mediocre to 76ers bad but without the draft picks and young lottery prospects.

Athletic? Just bring in a high school team and hand them Nets uniforms. They won't do much worse if that is what you want.

The only moves I want are ones that clear the deck from all salary and add future trade assets. If this does that then so be it. But listing the lineup like these guys aren't as bad as the 12 win days? Nope. Can't do that.

Have you heard(just now on ESPN) that apparently Lopez is reluctant to commit to pick up his player option for next season and that's what made OKC look around for other deals(Kanter)? A bit odd, thought Lopez would definitely be picking up that option.

HAHAHA. Oh Billy.
