I'm worried OKC is going to build a lasting dynasty...

Immagine adding one of the top guys of the next draft at that team...

Reminder that it's basically the Suns that are paying him. **** Ishbia.

Yeah that could turn into something like the Lakers getting Worthy, or the Celtics getting Tatum.

I remember how realgm specialists were telling me, before the season started, that Clippers will have a better record/season than the Lakers.

this is just them all agreeing to keep him away from the team until they can showcase him a month before next year's deadline when there's a slight chance his contract can be moved. Hopefully this is the last awful contract given out. I think teams have finally learned their lesson from Wall and Beal

The season from hell for Clipper fans. If they make the playoffs, Harden might be MVP.

Beal has a player option next season and a 15% trade bonus.

Funniest possible injury for the oldest team ever. Next Lopez is going to be out with shingles, Chris Paul with dementia

Why did the Clippers move Norm Powell for nothing again?

I'll never understand why that dude continues to get moved by every team he's on for like a bag of chips.

Toronto moved him for Gary Trent Jr and Rodney Hood. Hood was pretty much broken down by that point and was salary filler, it was basically a swap of Trent for Norm. Trent was somewhat up-and-coming on his rookie deal still, proven shooter but had no real other skills outside of that... which ended up being the book on him forever and he's been a vet min to half-MLE guy ever since.

Portland moved him and Covington to Clippers for essentially just broken down expiring salary filler guys and a 2nd round pick. So pure and utter salary dump by the Blazers with nothing of consequence in return.

Than Clippers move him to the Heat for a player in John Collins who literally every team immediately wants off the roster as soon as he puts on their jersey (Atlanta and Utah).

All the while, Powell just continues to put up +20ppg seasons whenever he's a starter. Does this dude have some weird odor that makes the lockerrooms stink or something... what's the deal?

OKC will get a top3 pick from Clippers just watch. Then will add a decent pick from 76ers and even a pick from Utah(1-8 protected, Lauri will win them some games plus bad luck on lottery). Damm, OKC will be a dinasty.

I get the Portland and Toronto deals, the Heat deal made no sense but had the basketball intelligentsia carrying water for them
