Celts get Brogdon

Love the moves. (including Galinari)

Brad gets a real PG and bench scoring for spare parts and a 1 thats closer to a 2.

celts just need a 3rd big to replace Theis and they should be set

As Ed Sullivan might say, a really, Really REALLY BIG TRADE. 

Having just reupped Karl Anthony Towns as a Max Player, now the Wolves are seemingly viewing him as a Stretch Four. 

They just shipped four unprotected first round picks in 2023, 2025, 2027, with a pick swap in 2026 and a top 5 protected pick in 2029 to the Jazz for RUDY GOBERT. 

Damn.

Play Kornet. You are paying him again. There must be a reason.

Yup

Williams, Horford & Kornet seems like a plan. 

Also, why not Gallinari as a small ball stretch 5?

I hope Danilo and Al get run together. That is like Webber Divac level slickness in the frontcourt.

I also hope we beat their asses and finish ahead of them, but I very much respect their offseason moves.

The Bulls have picked up Lonzo insurance. Dragic for a one year minimum, more or less.

Just read another fevered projection by one Marc J. Spears of Andscape, in which he projected how the Warriors could "potentially" offer the best package for both teams, vis a vis, KD.

Wiggins, Poole, Kuminga and Wiseman for Durant. 

The sheer insanity of that made my little head hurt. 

Disembowel a championship team, to reconnect with the petulant egoist, who didn't want to share the spotlight with a deferential Steph Curry, when he could create beautiful music with walking land mine Kyrie Irving. 

Yikes.

Meanwhile, Nyets should just stand pat and do nothing. 

Durant is contractually obligated for four more years, Kyrie for one. 

If they don't show up at training camp, don't pay them. 

Meanwhile, Lakers supposedly offering Westbrook, Talen Horton Tucker and their 2027 #1 pick for Irving.  Tucker?  Due $10-11 million for next two seasons.  Be still my heart.  Seriously? Pretty insulting offer.  Why not a rite of fellatio while they're at it.

Nets supposed to have countered with Kyrie & Joe Harris for Westbrook and that for shit 2027 #1 pick, minimally.  Still a lousy exchange, but better than taking back an overpaid slug like Tucker.  Some kahones the Lakers have. 



YIKES.

IMO he's a garbage time player and was a 4th string C/big on the Celts last year. With Al's age, TL's knees and Theis gone, I'd like a more skilled back-up just in case. Maybe revisit former fan favorite Kelly O and use the $17M tax exception related to last year's Fournier trade. They have to use it or lose it pretty soon.

Nothing is going to happen until the league is finished carving up the Nyets.

LOL

Chip's take on THT is comical.

Gratified as always to bring some joy to your life. 

Funny how THT's name seemingly comes up in every trade discussion the Lakers are involved in.

He was part of a three way deal, with the Raptors I think, which the Knicks bowed out of at the trade deadline this past spring. 

And now the Lakers are willing to suck it up, wiping a tear from each eye, and sacrifice this burgeoning talent and the esteemed Mister Westbrook for Mister Irving. 

Could it be that he was not the rising star they counted on? 

THT is due $10 million his season, with a player option for $11 million in 2023-24.  Fourth highest salary on the Lakers behind Westbrook, James and Davis.

60 games in 2021-22
25.2 minutes per game
10.0 ppg
.800% FT
3.2 reb
2.7 ass
1.0 steal
.416% 2-pt
.269% 3-pt

Yup, you sure can pick 'em.

THT in talks for good talent.  There were deals Lakers ket him out of as well

Ball dominat guy.  Doesnt mesh well with what Lakers have now.

Will turn just 22.  Excellent size in a ball handling scoring package.  Nice up and coming NBA player.  (PER 12.3, 12.9 and 11.0)

I do appreciate you preferring Grimes who makes 8 mil  less.  But this isnt the issue.  Got more money because he was a second rounder who blossomed.
