The Mavs being the dumbest franchise in sports history now making people think Giannis is an actual trade possibility this deadline is one of the more infuriating developments the past 24 hours. I should’ve seen it coming, that the media would find any way possible to bring it back to Giannis leaving the Bucks.

you're right though, it would be really nice to have a GM who knows what will happen in the future, I can't believe the owners haven't thought of that already!

The dork ass is for digging thru my posts like that’s some sort of gotcha dude, I post on RealGM as opposed to being a real GM. I have over 28k posts over 15 years, I am not digging thru my own posts to figure or what sort of context things I said years ago let alone doing that or even having recollection of wtf you guys think. It is immature to attack the poster instead of what they’re saying if you disagree with it, I simply respond in kind.

Yes, absolutely real GMs are supposed to anticipate the future better than fans, I’d trust almost of you more than I would Horst. His draft picks, his trades, he sucks ass. “You couldn’t do better” isn’t a defense, it’s just dumb. Get an actual basketball person in charge of this franchise.

they got tyus jones on the minimum already on their roster. maybe we could swap delon in there for him too :lol:

dame/lopez/delon/all our picks and assets out

durant/nurkic/jones in

i think the difference between nurkic and lopez gets us under the apron too

obviously a 3rd4th team would need to be involved. i doubt the suns want dame

Yup, everyone has hot takes, or regular takes, that we can comb through that turn out to be wrong. Some very wrong. We all do it.

If we get under the apron, can i day dream of adding Lonzo Ball and also day dream that Lonzo Ball isn't a shell of his former self.

Im already so tired of this mindset....

Luka trade was a peak aberration. So even setting that aside and pretending that it changed something:

After seeing how that gm got roasted, do you think its more likely or less likely that another gm does something like that?


GM's don't care about getting roasted, they care about having a job, i.e continuing to GM. If an owner says move, you think they won't?

Even if the Luka trade didn't happen, if Suns want to get out of KD business and reset you never know.

horst brought a championship to this town and has been more right than wrong. if your hot take is that hes the problem with this team then i dont know what to tell you.

Lakers want a big

Lak: Lopez
Det: Vanderbilt
Bucks: Reaves and Beasley

Then do another trade for a big.


Also Lakers could just trade for KD. Hach, Finny, Kleuber and Reaves works.

Giannis is who brought a championship to Milwaukee. Horst had nothing to do with him or Middleton. Praise to John Hammond.


It’s been one debacle after another here for years now, no more excuses.

Read on Twitter


I think they basically need to do the Suns/Utah thing where we turn the 31 1st into 3 first rounders. Even if that and getting under the 2nd apron was all we did it would be a successful deadline. Gives us WAY more flexibility going into next year,

yep...if a deal is applauded...especially on this board....then that move is probably a pretty good lotto ticket.

but every move is a lotto ticket. every single time. even this move for doncic could bomb out. if he gets fat and stays hurt and overpaid the goofs will say pelinka should have known
