Dallas's pick was protected 1-10. We probably had a choice between the two and Joe thought the Knicks pick would probably have a better chance of being a higher pick.
I love this place: "Getting rid of CJ for anything would be an upgrade" "Josh Hart for CJ? That's all we can get? Horrible move!" "Josh Hart is amazing, heart of this (sub .500) team!" "Josh Hart can't shoot, we need him out of here ASAP, he sucks." "Cam Reddish and a 1st for Hart?!? Hart and CJ were so much more valuable than what we got back."
I don't disagree... The humor is that people hate the guys before they're traded and then act shocked we don't get a haul in return. Almost like they're looking for things to be negative at all times.
Let's be honest... You are wired to think we ever win a trade. I assumed we'd get (2) seconds for Hart and a filler. Considering he was going to be gone for nothing, a potential #15 pick in the 2023 draft is more value than I'd expect Hart to command. You may think our roster is in championship mode this year, but I don't. So I'm not worried about the trade making us worse for the next 3 months.
I liked KP... Many of his trades made us better months down the road vs. right away. I don't see how this Hart trade is a major L like some are acting.
