It's a great trade... the PG's were all pretty close to my eye and that's the position I know the most.

Wright/Jones/Grant were all pretty close to me. Just depends on what you were looking for.

Phil interview coming up...


I had Payne instead of Jones.. but yeah I liked Wright and Grant also.

But hey the news is Pleighboi was half right.

Forgot about Payne, he was right there too. But yeah, word to pleighboi, I'm thrilled with the trade...

How do we about drafting a player that's as old as the player we just traded away. Hathaway is 23 and grant will be 23 by the start of the season.

I really hope Porzingis can add muscle like Anthony Davis did, we really gotta be patient with him.

He did what I thought Hinkie would do. Now imagine if Philly didn't take Okafor, we could have had Okafor and Grant

I have little doubt Grant gets more minutes early than Porzingis. And I used to hate how THJ used to freeze everyone out in summer league.. this kid is the opposite.
