Massive overpay, in fact maybe one of the stupidest trades ever. If Gobert landed 4 FRP and 4 players what is KD going to bring?

I get it's a bad deal to build the power of your team around bigs these days, but something had to get addressed, and if we weren't going to trade KAT for a haul (I don't think anybody would have given up what we needed, which was immediate assets, not draft picks) the problem still had to get solved.

We still have some guys that can combat small ball lineups. Maybe that means you can't play KAT and Gobert on the court at the same time for stretches of the playoffs. Like I said earlier, we're banking on Ant, not KAT, so as long as he turns into the guy they think he can be, we can still be competitive.

Not denying it's risky as ****, and you're definitely bucking league trends with this move, but there's definitely potential for this to also be a big win

Would Brooklyn have taken this deal for Durant, or at least used it as a starting point?

I posted during that series I didn't quite understand the Twolves offense with KAT camping at the 3 pt line and when they missed no Twolves players within 10 ft of the rebound. Thought it was strange to have your center camping outside like that even though I understand he was your best 3 pt shooter.

So I get the trade but damn they gave up alot. This is the Christian Kirk deal for the NBA.

To answer your other question, the rumor is the Nets are asking for a young star and 3 FRP for KD. That is probably out the window now.

It was 4 first round picks? Wow that’s a lot. Just upped the trade market considerably.

By young star, I assume any or all of Jared Vanderbilt, Malik Beasley, Pat Bev, and Walker Kessler weren't going to get the job done.

And the Wolves definitely weren't giving up Ant or KAT. One of the local Wolves people has some kind of inside knowledge post-trade that I guess the Jazz were going to drop a 1st rounder or two if the Wolves could throw in Jaden McDaniels, and the Wolves said no to that, but I think that's a case of the Wolves valuing McDaniels more than other teams would.

Brooklyn is going to want a top (preferably young) player as a centerpiece, I think. Then all these draft picks as well. And maybe more.

Does Scottie Barnes, OG Anunoby and 3 first round picks get it done for Durant? I had a long discussion about this last night at a wedding and I’m convinced it makes sense for the Raptors.

Jazz are working on a trade with the Suns for Ayton.

Do black players want to play in Utah? Ayton is a young star. Utah is not somewhere budding stars want to go. Or are Mitchell and Dwyane Wade appealing to these players to consider the Jazz?

It really should. I don't think anyone else will top that.
