Durant or Giannis to the Kings would be shocking. Kind of want to see it happen

Brown + Holiday to the Mavs for Cooper Flagg. Involves a shite tonne of salary moving around multiple teams. Mavs continue to 'win now' and Mavs fans actually riot in the streets :lol:
One day Marcus Smart will be defensive player of the year, mark my words.

Ja Morant’s the one that I think would really surprise. I 100% don’t think it will happen, but that’s the one no one is considering.

As a Grizz fan, hope it happens sooner than later.

We would have to send Naz Reid out to literally make the trade legal.


A trade that sends out Derrick White for lousy return in assets and salary relief alike?

Yeah, it's fair to say that nobody sees that coming. ;)

See this one doesn't make sense, not positionally, not financially.

We've been after the big guard prototype for a while and now have Castle and Harper (incoming). Keldon is a bull.

Brown's contract and health and contract(!) and not going left well as well as positional overlap at huge cost - not just taking on that contract(!) but what we'd have to give up to get him is prohibitive in too many ways.

I had no idea that Big Country was still in the league. Good to know.

In a big country dreams stay with you


The best thing about Big Country was it was the band's name and the hit song name. That's all you needed to know, just like all you need to know about Bryant Reeves was that he was, is, and will always be Big Country and nothing but Big Country.

In a world of chaos and confusion and nothingness, that gives me a lot of comfort.

What gives me discomfort is the number of Lakers "fans" who don't know it is spelled "REAVES."

Haha that's what I was thinking. How am I supposed to post a trade I can't think of?

JB actually goes left pretty well now. A slight majority of his drives the last two seasons were actually going left according to an article I read a while back. He worked hard on it and is much better now.

Other than that, yeah I don't really get the Brown to Spurs thing either. You guys are doing fine haha.
