This would be hilarious kyrie, harden, kd. They would probably win a ton of games during the regular season but I can’t see them winning a title.

If Rockets manage to trade Harden to the Nets AND Weetbrook to the Knicks and go full rebuild/clear cap direction -- that TPE looks really nice for Covington.

Didn't think it would be possible before, but with Nets & Knicks interest it's possible.

I just cannot see the Nets outbidding the 6ers or Heat.

BREAKING per Woj

Chris Paul to the Suns for Rubio, Oubre, Leque & Ty Jerome.

CP3 & Booker & Ayton to Star for the Suns

Good to see this happen. It makes Minnesota's path the the playoffs more difficult.

Well that takes Oubre and Rubio off the table for us. I wasn't nuts about giving up assets for Oubre because it would make us worse defensively so I guess I'm relieved. But we still got work to do. Haven't heard any "Warriors love X" draft rumors for a few days, maybe Bob has a preliminary trade in place.

I think they’re even more available to us now..

Lakers won because we weren’t healthy and lost Iguodala/Livingston/Bogut to age..I have no fear of the Lakers if we right ourselves ..

Key is to focus on D acquisitions

Agree we need more defense. Disagree about dismissing the Lakers. We have no one who can match up with Davis OR LeBron, I am afraid they would be living at the freethrow line against us.

I would think it would be easier and more available for us to acquire Rubio or Oubre at this point.

They're probably still available but there are restrictions in how quickly you can trade someone you trade for. Additionally, I'd much rather trade with Sarver than the braintrust in OKC.

I could see OKC wanting to see Oubre and give him a chance to get a big deal from them next year.

I was just running the trade machine and it looks like the only way Harden can land on the Brooklyn Nets is if they trade Kyrie or facilitate a sign and trade with Joe Harris. Otherwise the Nets have to trade like the entire roster. Correct me if I am wrong.

Makes you wonder if the Nets are considering trading Kyrie for Harden.
