    Genius move by Cronin to stoke up such hatred for Miami that we'll cheer ANY trade so long as it isn't to them.

    I wish I had some warning to buy lube. This one is going in hard and bone dry. Ouch.

    He's not just "a point guard." A good point guard.

    Why are we celebrating Ayton as if it’s a part of this deal? He could have been had for nurkic and pieces, unless Grayson Allen was key to Phoenix saying yes (which can’t be true).

    I’m proud of Cronin not taking that scrubby ass Miami offer.

    Why? Did you get a job with the Bucks? They have to be the favorites to win a title now. They gave up NOTHING and got Lillard.

    Shocked people don’t like this we got all star back defensive player of the year one of best two way players, Ayton good young center fits with scoot, and pick swaps which could have huge value at same time of decline for bucks

    For this deal to be worth it, Ayton has to become what we all thought a healthy Oden could be.

    Not assessing this until we find out what they get back for Holiday. That's an all-star two-way guard that definitely would have bring back good value in a trade, more than Tyler Herro.
