    I think we did, I texted someone last night if the Suns lose 2 in a row to us at full strength they are more than a player away.

    With all these big name players being talked about being moved I wonder if our 2nd and 3rd tier vets even have a market.

    The KD mantra has always been: if you can't beat them, join them. So...

    Super crazy that he can age 2 years in 8 months.

    He said he will only accept a trade to a team that was in the finals the prior year, so obviously Boston. Dallas is an odd fit now though.

    That’s nothing. I aged 4-5 years when my first kid was born.

    I am so tired of KD and his whiney bitch ass but he can get away with it since he is a Top 5 to 10 player .

    Looks like Nurkic to Washington for Valanciunas is close to happening.

    I'm not as down on most players as you are and that includes KD but yeah I wouldn't fuck with the chemistry if I was OKC.

    He's certainly not top5 today, I'd argue not top10 either.

    He hasn't won shit since a 73 win team took him to the finals.

    Durant is not a ball hog. He usually takes high percentage shots at this point in his career.

    Nurk's ego is gonna be so bruised I wouldn't be surprised if he threatened retiring. Only kidding, but nobody really seems to want him and he seems fragile. Like the arrogance and swagger are just fronts.

    I love this guy so much. He's usually a football guy but he's so damn funny.

    The Blazers are a Cooper Flagg away from becoming a perennial playoff team that can contend

    Tank the rest of the way, get lucky.

    Scoot
    Sharpe
    Flagg
    Avdija
    Camara
    Ayton
    Clingan

    Get value for Grant / Ant / Timelord / Thybulle, use assets to round the roster

    I'm delusional
