    Acquiring Brook Lopez and his $20 mil salary would be Enes Kanter horrible.

    My sauces say the trade is a 3way for Durant.

    Misleading title is misleading.

    Please gosh no; that would be my worst nightmare.

    Give up picks, the most valuable assets for a rebuilding team, and cap space for an overpaid aging declining veteran.

    I hope they trade for someone worth a chunk of change to meet the salary cap cause these players don't deserve the extra money.

    Didn't he just sign a new big contact this off-season? I don't want to be locked into that money for 3 years. I understand he is good but if he doesn't push us to the playoffs (and it wouldn't imo) then not a big reason to do the deal. We would be better off going for a top 3 pick.

    What picks? Surely not this year's. That would be a bad idea.

    Sounds like payback for Gerald Wallace.
