We need to move Oubre+ for another big. We can't keep doing the same thing.

This is why I had my hopes up for a trade back. Dumars is on a mission to do as much dumb stuff immediately as possible.


They’re giving up future first just to move up in the mid first. How did Darryl not get something crazy for the 3rd?

No chance his early press conference was for leverage against a team? Lol

Amazing how bad franchises keep doing stupid stuff. NO giving up an unprotected 2026 1st just to move up in the middle of the round, and they figure to be awful. Incredible.

We gotta move Drummond and Gordon for a true PF who can play small ball 5.

He has to be really good for this trade to work. A pick and an unprotected first?

I think Oubre will start at 4. Check Maxey, VJ, George and Oubre’s deflections or steals numbers. The question is who plays back-up 4, unless we re-sign Yabu.

They probably thought SAS at #14 or OKC at #15 were gonna pounce.

You know, the funny thing is they could absolutely hit on those picks and not end up with egg on their face. But my God does their process suck.
