It's not even just for a win now type move, you need someone to shave off the minutes from your starters. Somebody you can rely on. That has ramifications for the health of your starting five moving forward.


We got Yuta, Champaigne and Svi… Nurse with his great coaching skills will turn one of them into a Seth Curry

To move a guy making 6 mill (12 total after this year) ? Yeah, no

We have moved second round picks to remove Greg Monroe (a minimum contract) off the roster.

It would be a brutal failure.


Out of curiosity, what were you expecting... Did you think we were going to get a stud for Goran... Were you willing to trade any of our 5 core pieces?

Also Josh Richardson. Won't end up pretty.

that's what happens when you have a $44 million Westbrook....can't do much. Would've been better off with Demar/Hield or even Demar/Lowry

Jjst wanted to say how grateful i am that we now have a radio show to listen to during these final hours. In past years all we could do was surf the internet.

Its awesome to have the option of tuning into the raptor show with will and alex this afternoon.

No, I'm fine with Thad.

But there needs to be a follow up move because we have way too many big men now, none of them will be starting.

I thought the Heat were preparing for a trade when they adjusted the protections on their pick with the Thunder

He makes 6.5 million a year.

6.5 Mill for a guy who should be making 2 mill for another 2 years after this


I highly recommend you take a look a look at the players who are in that 6-7 million range.

This isn't 1995. We are in the year 2022 with super inflated salaries.
