Jordi going to keep winning games despite their GM's best efforts. They better sit DLo if they're serious about tanking.

DLo will be traded probably to some other team.

DFS was probably one of the better role players available. Vucevic is another. After that the tier of players are about the same as Brown.

Brooklyn's probably trying to re-create that DLo magic from 2018-19, then try to trade him at the deadline.

the problem with brown is his inflated salary, its hard to match up in a trade where you get assets (drafts picks) and the other team has enough dead salary to match. most good team dont have 20 mil wasting away on bench.

DLo back to the Nets is hilarious for me. Depending which 2nds they are (not sure what the Lakers have), they could actually be kinda valuable down the line if they're future Lakers picks.

Marks has done a masterful job since the KD/Harden/Simmons **** up.

Brooklyn went for it all, it didn't work, and now they are loaded up with picks for a proper rebuild.

Srp are way overvalued now because a lot of teams don’t have frp.

Every leak has a motive

I imagine Stein is feeling dirty today. Marks/Nets used him to put the pressure on the Grizz for their first round pick….which didn’t happen so off to the next best offer ie Lakers
