Pat Bev was even worse.

They were so bad tonight, I was imagining that they must all know they are being traded on Thursday and they just don't give a F. That was some of the worst basketball I have seen played this year. For a team that is trying to make a final push to make it to the playoffs, this was a big fail. We are done. Ain't no coming back from this pathetic performance.

All of them were horrible defensively and Ham continues to be clueless.

Westbrook had his one day in twenty nice night from distance, but was still horrid on defense and made 6 turnovers. Schroeder and PatBev totaled 6 more turnovers and both were dreadful defensively as well.

For some reason Ham played Reaves only 7 minutes and then didn't even look at him the whole second half. It looks as though he will be too tall for Ham's rotation.

Best defining move of the two coaches was when AD picked up his 2nd foul in the 1st quarter with 4 minutes left. Ham would sit him for 9 minutes (came in with 7 minutes to go in 2nd quarter). He never really got "into" the game. SGA picked up his 4th foul early in the second half (3 minutes into it) and their coach kept him in there for the rest of the entire quarter. OKC's young coach knows his star player is needed to win games. Evidently the must have dominance of AD to win any game continues to allude our rookie coach.

Dude is constantly outcoached.

No longer want/care about us making a move. Ham is an awful coach.

Ham is definitely not winning me over, but we still need to make moves.

There you have it

If you take on Ben Simmons too, who leaguewide is viewed as best case the 3rd worst contract and at worst the worst contract in the league, how many picks/protections does that let us keep out of the deal.

KD + Simmons for AD and Russ works financially. I'd like to get some of their spare parts as well, not sure if they would think they're still contending in the East this year or not.

Latest from Stein...

On the Toronto front

The Raptors remain at the forefront of teams widely expected to be active at the finish line, alongside Utah and Phoenix, but they also continue to be difficult for rival teams to read. My own sense, entering the final hours of trade season, has not wavered: I still struggle to see Raptors president of basketball operations Masai Ujiri ultimately parting with Pascal Siakam or O.G. Anunoby at this trade deadline. But there are certainly rival executives who believe there is still time for a trade involving Anunoby or Fred VanVleet to come together. My pal Jake Fischer of Yahoo! Sports put it well: Anunoby, VanVleet and Gary Trent Jr. — as opposed to Siakam — all remain “buzzy” names on the market.

Further complicating matters when trying to assess Toronto’s intentions: There were some fresh rumbles this week that it had explored packaging Trent and some level of draft compensation to San Antonio for Spurs center Jakob Poeltl. That's a move you would make to try to move up the Eastern Conference ladder — not down. The Raptors, for the record, don’t seem to mind the confusion they’re generating.

The Raptors have expressed confidence to some inquiring teams that they can acquire three future first-round picks for Anunoby. But from whom? Teams said to have indicated a willingness to offer two future firsts for the in-demand swingman include Memphis, New Orleans and New York. Indiana and Phoenix also continue to be mentioned frequently as Anunoby suitors, but there are at least two factors working against an Anunoby trade this week. 1. Ujiri is known to be generally reluctant to trade key players developed by the Raptors; 2. Teams hoping that the Nets’ Kevin Durant becomes available in the near future — particularly Phoenix — would be understandably hesitant to surrender their best trade assets now.

I wonder who's offering up that 3rd first for OG.

As Stein tweeted yesterday, Bucks are interested in D-Rose

The Bucks have expressed trade interest in New York's former MVP Derrick Rose, league sources say, but it’s difficult to see a pathway to Milwaukee absorbing Rose’s $14.5 million salary. The Bucks, of course, have been chasing a trade for Phoenix’s Jae Crowder for months and are also regarded as team with interest in the Knicks’ Cam Reddish as well, suggesting that the wing is Milwaukee’s priority. Rose last played for the Knicks on Dec. 31, losing his spot in the Knicks’ rotation — despite the longstanding support of Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau — when Thibodeau started giving more playing time to Immanuel Quickley, Quentin Grimes and Miles McBride. I reported last month that the Knicks want to “do right” by Rose if they do trade him this week, appreciative of the leadership he has continued to provide New York’s young players despite the evaporation of his old off-the-bench role.

Bamba and Ross are available, Harris probably isn't

While Orlando has made various veteran players available leading into the deadline, such as Mo Bamba and Terrence Ross, word is that the Magic might prefer to keep Gary Harris beyond the deadline. The Magic have a very young team and are said to relish Harris' veteran presence.

Noel is the most likely Piston to move

I feel like we've been writing for weeks about how resistant Detroit is to trading the likes of Bojan Bogdanović, Alec Burks and Saddiq Bey. The Piston most likely to be traded this week: Nerlens Noel. Sources say Miami and Philadelphia continue to register interest in Noel.

KD either stays, or ends up in PHX, Boston, Philly or Miami. Don't know how but dude is a frontrunner, so he'll be all over it.

Who else thinks this is why AD in these two oddest of clips ….. AD looking like he’s for real upset with LeBron …. must have heard his name at least mentioned in legitimate KD trade talks and figured or assumed (knowing how these things work) LeBron had “Russ”(ed) him?

I was wondering this last night. Did we float AD, Westbrook, 2 1st round picks for KD and Kyrie?
