    I don't agree. Blake was amazing this year, and they were still a .500 team.

    Be prepared for PG to demand a trade, because he 100% would if this happened.

    That Knicks trade might be the first trade Ive ever seen where both teams should get an F.

    From OKC perspective, there was only one way to get moveable liquid assets. Getting such a high lottery pick and salary relief is huge. And getting off that Russ contract is a priority-- the idea is to build around PG now.

    Don't knock it from either side until you see the final rosters.

    I was only ever knocking it from the Knicks side. Russ is something like the third-worst contract in the league.

    In reality, PG resigned there because of Russ. You trade Russ, you piss PG off to the point of wanting a trade no matter what.

    Too bad he's under contract for 3 more years. Suck it up, Paul.

    Cancerous locker room and terrible reputation among players and agents coming up then. Trapped a player by pretending to be loyal to the one player whos ever been loyal to OKC then ship him out first chance. Thats what would happen.

    Noted. How about you focus on your own rosters now?

    I Got a guy who will get the Knicks to the playoffs (which they aren't used too), and I don't run the risk of striking out in FA. I also had 0 intention of going after KD or Kyrie. Say what you want about WB (I'm not a fan of him either), but his teams are always in the dance and that's in the west. I can build a team around him in the east that's good enough to be competitive, which for NYK being competitive is so rare they'll hail me as a hero eventually.
