Horford's head is probably exploding right now thinking about playing with that roster.

So, we have, like, eleventy bajillion 1st round picks at this point. On top of that, our roster is so bad, there's no way we're not one of the 3-5 worst teams in the league next year. Is next year's draft supposed to be a weak one or a strong one?

I had a feeling we'd blow it up this offseason, I just had no idea we'd blow it up and then set the ashes on fire.

This is the year that Presti is balling all out the way I wanted the last couple of off seasons.

Next years is supposed to be very good.

Good to hear. I've never been and felt this out of the loop. We own our own 1st round pick, correct? Can't see how our current roster doesn't finish with a bottom five record, if not worse.

Looks like they're close to having the capspace to just absorb the contract.

Did we create a trade exception with Adams-Ariza deal? We got off roughly $10M and netted a protected 1st. Not too shabby.

Next year we get the most favorable pick between Miami’s,Houston’s and ours.

Correction: we get the two most favorable picks out of those three.

Yes, my bad. Here is a list of our picks but I don’t think it’s updated yet with Oubre and Adams trades.

Presti trading everything not nailed down.

Now, who'll take Ariza for a FRP?

I don't think we will get a pick for Ariza right now, but I'm curious whether we can trade him at the deadline for a good price. He is still a playable wing, his contract is expiering and we can take back bad money. Maybe a contender or a playoff-team is desparate enough to pay a good price for him.

Likely Bledsoe. Unlikely an players on a rookie contract since we are getting picks.

Well I'm sad we traded my favorite Thunder player but he wasn't a good fit for our team anymore with Horford and one late FRP + two 2nd is great. We are getting some negative trade value back though (let's the rehab begin)

Presti is freaking destroying this offseason. If we'd torn it down when kd left we wouldn't have been set up nearly as well. He may not know how to build a team once he gets stars, but he's the best GM in the league at this point in a build.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.
