Trading away two first round picks and also receiving two first round picks. Immediate expected outcome or long term? Immediate, win a playoff series, be competitive in 2nd round. Long term, surround a true PG with shooting and defense, hopefully Sekou eventually turns into something resembling a #1 scoring option, 20ppg guy and efficient.
And this is how we treadmill boys. No patience. Trade away long term assets for short immediate gains.
Horford is 34 right now and has 1 more year than Blake. It's one of the worst contracts in the league and we'd get back a late round 1st in a weak draft.
Lonzo is arguably a middling pg at this point and just signed up with Rich Paul, so you can guarantee he will be overpriced. You want to give up a lottery pick this year and what will undeniably be a high pick next year for that and #13 this year.
This is how you doom a franchise for years.
This is realGM. Maybe this came from JoeD or SVG? Joe? Are you bored in Sacramento? SVG? Is that tv gig getting old?
Just terrible.
I didn't say next years pick, nice reading. Horford isn't overpaid, just shows you don't know what good basketball looks like. If you don't think Lonzo is worth a late future first, I don't know what to tell you.
