    Not sure what to pay attention to. The trade stuff, or the impeachment vote.

    Shit I still have work

    Maybe we can just expand the trade and move Trump to Russia for a bunch of Vodka.

    True, but I’m still a bit interested in civics.

    Meh.... I'm really not convinced he was the piece that would have gotten us over the top. He doesn't solve our problems. Maybe if he was a really good defender.

    I was really just hoping we might get involved as a 3rd team facilitator. LeVert would have been nice.

    LeVert sucks. 30% usage rate 51 TS%. He's a poor mans Westbrook.

    Well one thing is clear: CJ would have been a HUGE overpay.

    Kyrie = spinning off the planet
    KD = fresh off a injury
    Harden = ate all the donuts

    Nets need a center in the absolute worst possible way with only DeAndre Jordan and Jeff Green available.

    I mean, if you are a team in disarray like the Nets, with Kyrie missing in action, ego KG, in Brooklyn/NYC, and you really need to settle things down and get some chemistry and cohesion, you go get James Harden. Right?

    Yeah I just mean this in the context of people that were mad we didn't try to get him.

    It sounds like a lot of people hate this trade for the Rockets, but the Nets gave up 6 years of team control. No one knows what those picks/swaps will be at the end. Durant and Harden will not be all-nba players by then. Not to mention with Durant/Harden/Kyrie they have no ability to add depth anymore.

    No way Houston would have sent him to Morey.
