Westbrook to the nets , mavs first
Kyrie to the Knicks
Nittlkina smith jr and bullock 2021 second

But honestly kyrie for Kyle lowery makes more sense for them .

Give it up. Westbrook is negative value. We're not dumping him that easily.

Meh so is kyrie at this point. And ok negative asset is harsh. Depreciation applied for sure. So we arnt getting a first back from him but we don't get anything of value in that trade other than a cap dump. Smith jr and bullock are cut worthy and nittlkina is a bench defender at best in the league. Westbrook also first that team well. And would actually play better off them than the team we have I'm my opinion . Westbrook and harden may have clashes sure , but they didn't have kd to bring the glue together, bring the band back together and try it again because kyrie ain't playing this year I don't think. And at least NKY arnt loosing anything of value to take a gamble on putting a star of on the team in case kyrie grows up and plays.

Negative asset is harsh but accurate. By negative asset, I mean we would need to provide incentive to trade him for a literal corpse with an expiring contract.

The only way Russ will be tradable is if his play improves markedly when he comes back from injury. Even then it's iffy.

What about Len as a stopgap replacement for Bryant? He had a couple of respectable years in Atlanta, though he hasn't seemed able to get on the floor in the last two years for Toronto and Sacramento.

He is 27.

I jumped in here to say that. His per 36 numbers are pretty solid each year. Back in the DMV I think he might see a revival of confidence. And he'd get PT for sure or leastways there are potential minutes to be had.

Meh on Len. Consider that Toronto cut him even though their other 2 centers are part-time type players. I've never been a fan of his - mainly because every pass to him was an adventure - it was too easy to knock the ball away from him. He's also a mediocre foul shooter, so I don't think that recent good 3 point shooting will last. He's a dinosaur in today's NBA.

So...good for the tank, right?

He's probably just good enough to make us win another game, so he even hurts the tank.

He's kinda scary looking with that beard - he might have a better future in the WWE.

For a team that might be lucky to win 12 games, Len stealing a win for the team makes him an average Wizard. Which isn't necessarily a resume builder, but still.

I'm also meh on Len but I think why not? He fits the profit of a Tommy Shepherd pick. He's international and fits the Washington profile, and perhaps getting released gives a guy who, lacks fire a certain spark to fight to preserve his career.

Brooks is a good coach for Len as well.

I mean who are we cutting ? Like we don't need Len. We have lopez , mo, and AP grants I think AP or lopez could go but someone has to go maybe even robinson.

Kevin Porter Jr. traded to the Rockets.

Thank God we didn’t acquire him. I didn’t know his transgressions, but once I read up on him, happy we passed. Dude seems like a terrible person, and there’s no fixing that...

With John wall and Eric gordon almost untradable for a profit it's kind of like they need as many assets as possible. So good move . He could end up playing big minutes

Interesting article from The Ringer on Mo Bamba. He is getting no playing time and might be ripe for a team to trade for him.

Hey look, Xavier Tillman is beasting in Memphis.

No one on this board called that one. Absolutely no one.
