a little hint...
Spoiler:

Like you said, Horford is still good. Along with shai and Rubio, this team isn’t going to be crazy bad.

I am agnostic about this move without seeing if they can manage to ship off Rubio and Oubre. It’s gonna be a bummer if this team is sitting at a few games under .500 at the end of the year. They could be sneaky good.

I know green wanted to compete, but from a culture standpoint, of all the vets we had, I wanted to keep him the most. Won a championship at North Carolina and 3 other teams. I think he’s the only person to ever do that. And he wouldn’t have affected the win total.

Adams or Horford will likely be in the move. Cant imagine they’ll both be on the regular season roster. As crazy as it sounds Adams, Horford, Oubre, SGA, and Rubio is a playoff caliber starting 5 with Dort and Bazley so far this off the bench.

Horford was so miscast in Philadelphia. I still think there is going to be lots of movement from other teams once free agency starts. This team could still look a lot different.

I kind of hope so. I love the guy as a professional but I agree with spearsy. He’s a bum after the first hard fall of the year.

So OKC can't sign and trade Gallo now because of Horford's contract:

Presti revenge tour continues with the next 'should've got him 5 years ago player.' This is getting insane and I love it

I've been on the Ferguson ed essentially blossoming into a green like player train since he was drafted. Thank God he's going with green and I don't have to keep hoping.

I like SGA playing with Horford.

I talk about Poku maybe too much but if we don't get him tonight I'm going to be really disappointed. I just need the sleeper payoff for once man.

Gonna have a bunch of consolidation trades in the next couple years.

Poor Ferg. The Philly fan base is going to rip him to shreds.

We got rid of Nader, Burton and Ferguson in a bit more than 48 hours. That's nice.

All the draft assets OKC are getting, are any of them likely to be in the lottery?

Maybe if Houston blew it up, those picks that OKC got from the Rockets would be lottery?

Can they have too many first round picks in the bottom half of the first round?

For instance, Celtics have #14, #26 and #30 but they probably don't have roster spots for all 3.

Can we wait and see? We’ve been rebuilding for three days.

I like his upside but I worry about the durability of a body like his.

No idea if Gs was talking about trading the second pick but with Klay's injury...not gonna happen
