What the hell you talking about? Those Kanter, Exum, Burks, Burke, Lyles, Almond, Koufous, Maynor, Allen, Azuibuke picks still make my toes curl. Gimme more of that ****.

Yeah screw trying to draft Mitchell, Gobert, Dwill, Hayward and Millsap. We are guaranteed to get those foundation pieces in free agency. What an idiot.

I don't disagree with this exactly, but Patrick Beverley wasn't going to get a first-rounder back. THT could both stick around and develop into a solid player.

I’d like this deal a lot more if THT didn’t have a player option next year.

That'd be ideal, but I think if he develops well here next season he'll want to stay, especially after having his development stunted in LA.
 
When it comes to war chests of draft picks, people here do understand that we have one of the best war chests in the league right now, right? I get the idea that you want as many "bites of the apple" as possible, but we just traded a 6 ft 34 yr old PG for two "serviceable" wings in that are 21 and 26. Not really a needle mover as far as trades go, but I definitely don't think it's anything to complain about.

Yep, 2/12 solid picks over 15 years should get is where we want to go.

Please stop with the stupid posts. We drafted 3 star players in a 7 year stretch. Unfortunately Lindsey was a complete moron over the last few years but that doesn't change the fact that there were game changers available with almost everyone of those picks. Hopefully this time around we have better scouting and of course a hell of a lot more bites at the apple.
 
Also, if we're going the tank route, we're not going to try and make a splash with a FA next summer anyway. We want to tank for at least 2 years, so that we keep our outgoing OKC pick for at least the 2024 draft. So, I couldn't care less that THT has player option for next summer.
 
So the Gobert trade has yielded sofar a million picks, swaps, Kessler, Vando, THT, Stanley Johnson, Beasely. Good? Bad?

And we have two days to include THT and Stanley in another trade...is something incoming?

So if he has a great year and leaves what exactly did we gain from this trade?
