    TB had a good stretch for us, but the reality is he's an offense-only backup center that we weren't going to resign. We probably move at least some of these seconds in another trade. Wish nothing but the best for TB in Denver, he works his a** off.

    Likely a follow up deal. We did just get Vanderbilt though, remember? Those 2nds would be useful though. Detroit probably wants them. We probably get Bojan and Noel now.

    You better get a center now. Opening up space for who? 6-8 forwards to play the 5 for Ham’s small ball? Attach those picks to Bev and Lonnie ASAP.

    Damn, now the Lakers have 6 second round picks to leverage. Bold move Cotton, let’s see how this pays off for the Lakers by noon.

    Pelinka probably has a trick up his sleeve

    yeah I'm not a fan of this at all.

    Vanderbilt is Lebron's size. Dont think he can defend someone like Jokic

    Unexpected move. I liked him as insurance for AD. Will trust Pelinka on this one until all is done

    We probably stockpiled those for crowder only to get cucked by the Nets yet again.

    The market was set for a wing like Crowder (5 seconds). We are I'm good position for a wing now.

    I’m going to temper my expectations.

    Could definitely envision a scenario where there is no follow up move involving those 2nd round picks today, and the explanation from the FO is that we just didn’t think we’d be able to re-sign Thomas Bryant so we wanted to replenish our second round picks for future trade flexibility.

    i think we're either trading for a center or know one we like will be on the buyout market. vanderbilt and gabriel are quite small for centers, even by modern standards.

    that's a huge poop on our playoffs expectations though, if we're going at it with just one true Center, who doesn't even like to play Center and is always injured.
