    You guys are right. I had to go looking for it. It wasn't mentioned in the tweets or on fanspo.

    So he trades Dame, Nurk, Nas and Keon and we get back Ayton, Brogdon, Williams, Warriors 2024 FRP top 4 protected, 2029 Celtics FRP unprotected, 2029 Bucks FRP unprotected and FRP unprotected swaps with the Bucks in 2028 and 2030.

    That's a fucking haul and I think we might see another trade for Brogdon soon that increases the picks.

    I think the #1 pick they'd want to trade for is 2025, unless Flagg has changed his graduating class

    Its so refreshing to wake up and see we made a smart team decision on a trade and not having to wake up and question wtf soap actor was thinking on a decision.

    Nope, Miamis crusty moldy bread was a better offer.

    I'm guessing Joe is now removed from Pat Riley's Christmas card list?

    Even Heat fans are finally coming to terms with reality... most of them are giving Joe respect.

    The Dubs pick is a beauty. I don't know how long the refs can carry water for those old guys. If Warriors terrible road record begins leaking into their home record, the Blazers might have a GSW late lottery 1st round pick next summer.

    The difference is that the Bucks asked us to keep it quiet in case they didn't make a deal. Moving Holliday was a seismic issue in MIL. Everybody and their mother knew the Suns wanted to move Ayton.

    Maybe, wouldn't it be hilarious if Miami got Brogdon. It might save their season.

    that's only because they still want the Blazers to help them facilitate a Tyler Herro trade.

    LMAO. Now the Heat fans are saying the offer from Miami was three firsts, Hero, Jovic, etc.

    I figured this may shut them up but nah, they will be crying for years.

    Our future is so much brighter than theirs
