    Too good to tank?

    Could have just taken Matas. Also, could have tanked harder and had a chance at someone like Castle. I think they made the right call... they just once again timed it incorrectly. There is a chance the rebuild ends up having a lower ceiling than anticipated. The half assed tank years will be...

    That wasn't considered a fleecing at the time. Serge was reportedly 27 and still in his prime. Vic had disappointed a bit and Sabonis was the 11th pick in a meh draft. Neither guy played all that well in OKC... they didn't explode until much later in Indiana.

    Imma have to watch him at some point. He was so fun in the McD's game but not looking like thicc Ant rn.

    I think he’s had less luck than most average GMs. Wild to think that Russ is the reason Presti is goated.

    It’s the notion that he’s lucky. Not really. He had a cap change that allowed the fuggin mvp to leave for nothing. He’s had less luck than like 90% of the GMs that have put together title teams. The Westbrook “credit” is hilarious. Russ is part of the reason KD wanted to bounce. Presti clearly...

    It hilarious that people explain Presti like “he just got lucky to always have the stuff people wanted to buy”. Yes… lol. He spun out a washed Serge Ibaka into the stiff he sold for PG and sold that for SGA and a **** ton of picks… then sold off Westbrook… got assets to take Al Horford… got...

    He acquired infinity dice rolls and people act like he’s a one hit wonder. He was just so disciplined in his approach… jealousy can blind folks I guess.

    Could be a decade. Especially if the clips give him a top 4 pick.

    Why can't we give the guy his flowers lol. He built the team before this team. He traded for PG... him re-signing doesn't happen if he doesn't trade for him. Presti absolutely just killed it. No need to asterisk it. Without Presti there's no Russ in OKC. Guy has a sustainable winner. A...

    Presti truly ran a master class of how to tear down and rebuild. They got some luck but are setup for like a 5 year contention window with the ability to reload and extend it.

    Walker Kessler out for the year

    Honestly... KOC = Danny... fading out but still involved. Austin = DL... taking over but only part of the voice in the room. Walker = Gordon. I don't think Walk gets a max but I can see a team going to 35M under terms we wouldn't love. Then when we don't sign anyone else good in FA we will...

    Walker Kessler out for the year

    First reported on Jackpotting Around. Andy also had an interesting interview on Spence Checketts yesterday. Here's how I think this ends. Jazz don't make a good offer until Walk goes out to RFA. Walk goes out to FA and gets a 3+1 at a high enough dollar amount that gives the Jazz pause. They...
