I am on the Westcoast. I will wait up for news a little longer, but I hear you.

I’m on the west coast too but I highly doubt anything else happens right now. Teams probably gonna wait till the morning before doing anything hasty

Dame is next
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Masai is the master of increasing value for his assets. I don't think we're trying to win this year. These moves are all for next year and beyond. Poeltl is an easy increase in talent level for not much given up. You also retain all your other tradeable assets.

Grizzlies assets are so mid. At least the Warriors could offer some intriguing prospects worth trying to develop

Please do. OG certainly isn't stopping Kevin Durant, nor is he developing his offensive game much further than he already has.

Not sure we should but he's not starting next season on the blazers I don't think. He's going to give up sooner or later.

In the right defensive system I think he could be dominant defensively. But that sure as hell isn’t ours.

Why would we need to give up picks for Simmons lol. Brooklyn probably needs to give picks just to get rid of him rn

OG's good defensively. But nobody can stop Durant 1 on 1 in the league as it is.

If we can capitalize on OG's value by getting a package of Murphy/Daniels, LAL 1st, and a future 1st we win that trade. It raises out ceiling and makes us a better offensive unit with depth.

Poeltl (re-signed 20M) - Achiuwa - Koloko
Siakam - Boucher - Young
Barnes - Murphy - Porter
Trent (25M) - Daniels
VanVleet (25M) - Banton

Add Walker and Wallace we have 4-5 high potential bench pieces. 2 of Walker/Wallace/Hendricks, Achiuwa, Murphy, Daniels, and Koloko.

That wouldn't make us a treadmill team and the extra first makes losing one to Poeltl easier to handle.

What about Joe Harris and Yuta for Thaddeus, Otto Porter and Juancho?

I looked at the teams and came up with Lillard, and Beal basically making no sense for their current teams. Luka could be on this list if Kyrie leaves. Need to keep accumulating talent for next trade deadline.

With enough picks, Simmons almost looks good.

Honestly, they should see if the Spurs will take him for like 3 1sts just to end this era of Nets basketball. He's just sitting there like Durant and Kyrie's semen all over their capsheet.
