I stand by my feeling that we would have gone back-to-back if we had PJ, even with Midds going down. We were a guy short.

Well that sucks. It's sad the Bucks can never make a deal like this. Why did they keep Horst?

Feels like the Nets are gonna be the big losers in all this deadline chaos. A month ago, Cam Johnson was looking like the hottest commodity on the market that multiple teams were gonna get in a bidding war over. Now, he's barely an afterthought as all these teams are positioning themselves for bigger moves and waiting for the bigger dominoes to fall. And all they could get for dumping Schroder and DFS was a bunch of 2nd's. I'd probably just keep Johnson and Claxton at this point cuz I can't see any team giving up multiple firsts for those dudes. And I guess they're just gonna let Ben Simmons' contract expire?

Well, if it takes a 1st or 4 seconds to get off Pat's contract, then it probably would cost the whole Thunder draft war chest to trade the Simmons contract.

I’d imagine we see Johnson traded. Makes sense not hearing about it until it happens.

Ok, great, we know you're really good. But you need to settle down.

That sounds like something Giannis would say.

Except that Giannis has a hell of a lot of fun at the All-Star Game. He wants to win, but he also goofs around and enjoys palling around with the other players.

These **** are already slowly trying to create another Giannis narrative out of this Luka trade.

So before the Luka trade, the Warriors weren't going to try as hard to make a trade that helps them be contenders again?

Every new interview from Nico Harrison just makes it so much worse. Can’t imagine what it’s like to be a Mavs fan atm.

Celtics Cavs starting for those who want a break from trade stuff

Lost in the Luka kerfuffle is this was cleary done to open up usage for Exum. Let his reign begin.
