Weird trade for Ainge. Both contracts expiring yet Jazz sent the draft capital.

We're going to stack NSJ on KJ's shoulders, they're the center now.

No complaints about getting the better player, but the roster makes even less sense now. There has to be more trades coming. This could impact Mann and Okogies contract situations.

This can't be good news for tre mann, right?

Is this the veteran point guard? melo insurance? or mann replacement?

Does this signal that we're going to target a veteran center in free agency? You can't go into the season with an injured grant and a moose kalk

I think it just changes free agent targets. Adding Sexton means we didn't secure Ty Jerome nor NAW.

We could still bring back Mann & Okogie and sign a C like Brook Lopez.

Sexton averaged 18/3/4 on 48/40/86

So I'm pretty sure this means Mann is down. No point in keeping him with Sexton, unless we're planning on some weird small-ball lineups.

Compare players here. I was comparing Sexton and mann

sexton Gets to the rim a little bit less but is a much better finisher at the rim. Gets to the free throw line more.

I like Sexton and wanted him on this team. But uh are we just not going to play with a center most of the time?

We clearly have a move coming there in RFA or UFA.

Jeff cooked Ainge, yall

Also he has an 11-year-old's sense of humor building an actually feasible lineup of Ball/Sex/Knipple/Tiddy/Kalk
investigate Adam Silver
