    You could look elsewhere in FA down the road if the haul for Ant were to be better. But I don’t think it would be.

    100% agree. He is exactly what every championship team needs

    It's interesting the deal isn't yet official. Wonder if the Holiday thing gets roped into this one.

    It seems that either Milwaukee is really stupid or they know something we don't... I just don't understand this trade from their point of view.

    Is there any incentive to do that?

    I hope it is finalized tomorrow so our boy BGD wins that Hundo

    Can't he play PF? Move Jerami to SF

    Scoot/Ant
    Shae/Ant
    Jerami/Tisse
    Timelord/Kris
    Ayton/Reath

    They need to do something to make Giannis happy

    It's like people forgot that Dame put up MVP numbers at an extremely efficient level last season. This will be the best roster that Dame's had by light years. Dame will be the team's leader but he will obviously be the second best player. Dame will be surrounded by defensive dawgs. This was a brilliant trade for them. I bet they have the second highest odds to win the chip to the Nurggets to open the season.

    Can aggregate players in addition to Jrue. If we bring him in and send out in a separate deal, he can only be traded alone.

    yeah...that's the way I read it

    sometimes deals like this can take several days to complete. Everything is agreed to right now, but Portland is probably asking for a couple of days to try and add a Jrue trade

    Plus two unptotected FRPs to Portland

    This gives the Heat a solid defensive lineup at PG SF and C

    Because we are not in win now mode, and Jrue will return better assets.

    I think the Blazers are in Win Now mode. Just not with 33-year-olds.

    Yeah, I never understood that.
    Might as well go off the rails about how good one of own our young players will be.
