Trading DMC for Hield.

The Bagley pick was really bad tho

Who they are currently putting on the bench and will likely ship off this offseason.

Seriously, we need to call them up this summer and try to get De'Aaron Fox.

Pistons traded Drummond. Replaced him with Christian Wood, who’s having a breakout.

Christian Wood has always been able to put up production, nothing new there.

it's not fair how his saga panned out with us

His saga with us will never make sense to me.

Sure it makes sense. Moron front office sells low as usual, to open up cap space to sign a backup Center.

Fultz has had some nice games this year. I'm happy for him. You still think he can be better than Donovan Mitchell, DeAaron Fox and Jayson Tatum, though?

Yadda yadda short-term gains and a thousand cuts. Most people know my spiel by now.

again

I think Fultz needed to get out of here to truly grow. He is out of the spotlight in Orlando, doesn't have to be a star asap, doesn't have to shoot asap and that team doesn't have championship aspirations right away. The He's only 20 thing is a bit of a meme but it rings true in this sense; he needed time to grow...because of our surprise success , we didn't have time for him to do so.

Disagree 100%. We had the time, we just didn't have the patience. That was the biggest thing we lost when our savior was removed.

Maybe? Even if he isn't better than those guys he can still be a very good player.

Every day that goes by the deal to trade him for cap space so we could sign Al freaking Horford will look stupider.

Devin Booker gets the allstar alternate nod. I'm glad his production eventually got rewarded, even if reluctantly so.

Not this season but maybe 2-3 seasons from now.

Shamorie Ponds just signed with an Italian League squad. Probably some major character issues or something.

Hopefully he matures overseas so he can come back to the states and get another chance in the NBA. I would renounce all our two-way contracts right now for him.
