The idea of trading 5-7 years of first round picks and pick swaps was always insane.

The Clips owe OKC the 2026 and 2027. Philly gets 2028 and 2029.

It’s going to come home to roost now with the Clippers. We’re next, although at least we got a title with Jrue before blowing the wad again on Dame.


Key difference is that the Clippers don't have a Giannis level trade chip to recoup their entire asset base once the clip is empty. And it's why I'll keep pushing back on this notion that we should be treating that highly overrated 2031 1st as untouchable.

Kawhi should have been patient instead of demanding the Clippers immediately trade for a star who wasn't even available. He could have done what LeBron did when he went to the Lakers and just chilled with the youngsters for a season and see how the trade market played out.

It's not like the Clips were bottom feeders anyways. They were a 48 win team

The Rockets are damn good.

That Rockets game would've been a great win for us if we didn't trick the game away.

Feels like Jarrett Allen gets beat up badly by these big and physical teams.

I put a few bucks on the Rockets to win the championship before the season at 15-1. Now they're 10-1 and I'm tempted to add more. But the Thunder are a pretty big hurdle. They're at 2-1.

Kyshawn George is legit. Bummer we took AJ Johnson just before him, but then again Horst would probably have traded George by now lol.

Luka and Reaves combined are averaging more FTA than the Bucks as a team.

I fear we're going to witness some all-time nasty ref garbage for LAL this season :roll:
