I can live with that. Goran was not an asset and anything Eubanks gives is gravy.

I think we have to factor in the trade that got us Dragic.

Out: Lowry, Dragic, 1st round pick currently #20
In: Achiuwa, half-season of Thad, Eubanks on a cheap non-guarantee next year, 2nd round pick currently #32.

With the alternative being nothing for Lowry.

the calculus really is

17 mil cap space + room MLE

or

Achiuwa, Birch, half-season of Thad, Eubanks on a cheap non-guarantee next year, 2nd round pick currently #31

Very true, thanks for the more accurate depiction of the deal.

I’m curious which UFAs who signed for $17M or less people would have preferred over Achiuwa.

(I must have gotten the 2nd round pick slot from the wrong standings if it’s #31 instead of #32)

I think Harden is a solitary superstar. I believe he can't actually coexist with another star.

His best years were while in Houston as the focal point along with supporting players.

I like this deal for brooklyn more, Harden is turning 33 and his efficiency has dropped this season.

It's funny how some of you complain that we did not make a trade for a certain player. "We could have gotten Turner or Nurkic for Dragic and a first". Were you guys on the phone with the GM's and know for a fact they would have accepted that deal? You can make all the offers you want but it takes two to make a deal. If other team rejects your offer there is no deal plain and simple. Do you prefer to be a team like Hornets who are possibly on the verge of giving up Washington,Kai Jones and a first for Poeltl? This board would have absolutely went nuts if we made such reckless deals.

How many times do some of you have to eat crow complaining about Masai and his team deals. He is the same guy that traded for Ibaka, Gasol, PJ Tucker, Kawhi Leonard. Is he perfect and always makes the right move? Of course not but what GM or team does? However I believe he has earned the right for us to trust him and his plans for this team. Personally I trust him to the fullest and feel we are and will continue to be in great hands as long as he is here.

Would’ve been a good fit for us, don’t think there’s a chance we could get him now.
