This is... something. Give me a few minutes to digest. I think I like it more than it seems on the surface.

Seems like an overpay for you guys. I know walker wanted out but the 16th pick ain't nothing. And Horford still has 2 years as well.

I like it. This team cannot go full rebuild mode with Tatum and Brown and needs strong characters and smart veterans. I've been saying that for two years now.

Now get me Rondo, get me someone like Danny Green, get me a Paul Millsap type etc. Build around the Js but with smart vets who will complement them and keep them in check.

Strong vet, sure but at the right price. Maybe Kemba was going to be too hard to get any value back? Who knows there must be a lot more going on we don't know about yet...

Not in love with this. But Horford is useful. Lonzo at PG? Get scary terry back?

I like Al. Can we get Olynk back to. And somewhere Anna horford is doing cartwheels .
