This is true but it is extremely less sad than millions of other things happening to people every day

If I went home and told my wife that we have to move to Detroit and make 10's of millions of dollars over the next few years playing basketball then she and I would be the opposite of sad

It's not THAT sad

Right? In a few years you can live wherever you want and never have to worry about money.
 
Also one more thing came to mind. If this is the only trade we make and they made it to clear way for the rookies...

Then its a good question to ask if this was less of a downgrade than sending out KO for supposedly equal compensation?

At least I think Hendricks fills Simones role better than KOs.

Buuuuut... if we also trade out KO then this is a moot point.

We like to say how these guys are human and not robots and how things like trade deadline stuff can effect how guys play.
Maybe Ochai play has been affected by his lack of playing time and coach not believing in him and not have a consistent role.

He is still a guy with great size and athleticism who was the big 12 player of the year and still young.

I wouldn't be shocked if he plays better with a bigger and more consistent role

he Won’t be worse. I agree that he might get a boost of confidence. I also think when you are pressing low minutes is hard. It will almost surely be a big step down though. And I am Ochais number one hater so need to defend my territory.

If the stakes are no longer there he can't get better. Currently he's getting worse by the week so idk if we are at the bottom yet

Simone has been in the closing lineup in all of 11 games this year, shooting 25/22/0 in clutch minutes.

I hate arguing this though as I did like the guy.... but go find a paper bag.

That’s uhh.. not great. But yeah he definitely is the 3rd most important player on this team if you like squint really hard and forget about a couple of guys.
 
So not sure if this has been posted but remember that Tech was second round stash and grab too. This Procida looks like a poor man’s version of Tech and apparently played along side him in World Cup.

So we got Knox as a security net for Hendrix through the rest of the season, a second rounder and the rights to this stud in the making. I’m calling this another A+ fleece job by DA. And hopefully it’s as good for Tech as well.
