    isn't the word that barnes has been a bit disappointing behind the scenes there?

    guessing toronto is going to try to move excess talent at the wing for an upgrade at center.

    All the Hornets players, including Hayward, had a good audition at Crypto Arena last night.

    I was imagining Mitch Kupchak to Rob:

    Been saying that.

    Rob targeted the right guy.

    There's others, too.

    Curse the WB trade.

    so many trade possibilities with charlotte. they've been there since summer, too.

    them talking to bridges could help us, as someone already noted.

    We can’t make a trade unless it makes us an instant title contender, it’s the law.

    A trade with the Hornets gives us such quality depth and the pieces fit. The nba is so open this year so it would depend on Anthony Davis.

    Nope, can’t do it, can’t trade for all those solid players and depth when we can possibly maybe potentially at some point maybe trade for Beal or LaVine or Durant, or just use our cap space to sign Draymond Green.

    Yeah. I think that once the dust settles with Miles and whatever suspension he’s going to serve, then they will seriously engage trade talks.

    Nets with a huge win over the bucks yesterday. I think a lot of trade movement was paused/avoided as they righted the ship over in Brooklyn.

    KD was going to be potentially traded to one of the raptors or phoenix and I imagine either would have been a three team trade. And then there would have been a series of domino’s in an arms race.

    I’m curious how that team goes as Ben Simmons finds his place.

    We shot 52% from the field and 43% from 3 against those guys. They don't play any defense either. AD would have dropped another 50 piece on those cats. We need another quality bigman. I hope the Turner extension stuff, is a negotiation tactic by the Pacers.

    The Charlotte trade just doesn’t excite me at all. Especially when sending out firsts. If you can get it done for Westbrook and no trade capital than I’d consider it.

    Well, he's really 5'11", he'd fit well with what we're trying to "build" here.

    Since Ramon Sessions is out of the League and a small PG, he would be a perfect fit!

    Not using the picks it's not for waiting for LaVine or Beal. Is also to not be out of Luka, Booker, Tatum and similar superstars wanting out the next 5 years, which will be the time we will be with NO multiple draft picks to trade if we use them now
