Re: [Charania] KD To Rockets For Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, #10 And 5 Second Round Picks
These F’ing morons didn’t even cut salary for this garbage. I would assume they have some kind of next move(s) planned but this is the team that turned an unprotected 1st into three garbage 1sts and then proceeded to sit on them.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

I'm not that high on Green but I'd be willing to get in on this as a 3-way and try to package IQ for Green.
Both are bad contracts but at least Green has some perceived upside.
I dont even know what IQ is, a 7th or 8th man getting paid over 30 million? We need to dump that contract. Especially if a guy like Fears drops to 9th.

What "long term" lol? The dude at most has another two, maybe three years left in the tank. And his decline in that span of time is going to be precipitous.

Not to mention, although coming off injury, Kawhi was only 27 (10 years younger than Durant).

Seems like many fans have soured on IQ already.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

IQ is a good shooter who passes pretty well and draws fouls. He's an okay third-option scorer. Solid player. I think having him around and heathy will change some opinions on him, anyway. He missed so much time, it was hard to get a feel for his contributions.
Meantime, Houston should be pretty interesting and that price wasn't awful for them. They've created a window, so we'll see what they do with it and how good they can be.

IQ hasn't had a healthy lineup here much (himself included), I'm not worried about him looking better with BI+ this year, he'll be fine

Despite having only played 71 games so far.
His constant injuries are a concern, but we haven't seen nearly enough of his play to draw any conclusions there (he's pretty much played up to expectations in the games he has been healthy).

They gotta get rid of Allen and Royce for players that play other positions but whos gonna want them? I honestly think my 10 year old self would have built a better team that this guy.

He was actually pretty good when he came back from his injury. Too many casuals on this board.

plus got another 3+D starter in Danny Green.....Kawhi trade is not even comparable to the KD situation.
