Just unreal. The most toxic contract in franchise history sits on our cap through summer of 2022

I can’t believe after all this time to find a deal, we didn’t...and yet this franchise has given me far more reason to think this is exactly what would have happened haha...amazing

On the bright side, we did add Melo and Hayward...front a talent stand point, we will at least be even more fun to watch

this trade could have been done in 3 hours after Gordon agreed to terms, but somebody(s) wanted to be a try hard about it

Wait a full week for (x2) 2nd round picks?

Hmmm.....

Welp, I guess at least Mitch can’t be accused for not doing his due diligence and rushing the transaction.

Someone remind me why we signed Rozier again? Because that cap space sure would have been nice right about now.

Rather have 2 2nds than nothing at all. Love the signing.

We’re getting (x2) 2nd round picks, but we are also SENDING a 2nd round pick to Boston!!!

This is a deal that just keeps on giving.....

Lol, I can't believe we just gave Boston a huge TPE for some trash seconds. We are the laughing stock of the NBA. Our only hope is that Hayward gets injured and we get top lotto picks for the next 2 drafts.

Bonnell said thats a 2nd that probably won't convey to Boston. Hes been right lately somehow.
