This morning OG is our MVP. We got to close this out but he is the front runner at the moment.
I put the Debusschre trade ahead because the pieces already in place. Reed slides to center, Bradley from Guard to SF. Core for 2 chips over next 5 years.
OG came and it looked great until Randle got hurt. Not on OG mind you but that, and playoffs we fell Apart and OG had that injury.
KAT and Bridges came after OG.
Its a great trade, fantastic and OG has gotten better each year. Dave. D was an allster prior but the chemistry was a mastertroke. Also while Bellamy was an really good center it put Reed in the middle.

It's crazy. There are guys who made the All NBA First Team who don't have a fraction of the big plays OG has accumulated between here and Toronto. I'm sure we'll see a thread started soon that says OG is underpaid.

I have never understood the complaint about OG's contract. For me, he is easily one of the top 10 best defenders in the league, so he is one of the best on one side of the court. And he is well above average on the offensive side with elite spacing capabilities. He is no less than 80% of Kawhi?
In comparison, someone like Doncic is uber elite on the offensive side with top 3 closing capabilities but a literal zero on defense.
OG...
16.7 ppg reg season
20.7 ppg post-season overall
23.8 ppg Finals
Another gear and that's just his scoring. He's been a key defender for Wemby and/or anyone else on SA.
I’ve never seen these before
I like Leons Comment about the tip in: "The hand of God!"
Greatest trade of all time.
Masai Ujiri has to be the WORSE GM in basketball
That dude lived off the success K. Leonard "lucky bounce"

He gets a lot more benefit of the doubt than he deserves. I find a lot of his moves to be very directionless. He has a nice foundation to work with in Dallas but I don’t have a ton of confidence in him.
Masai was the man in Denver that got that franchise in good shape. Laid a really good foundation for Connelly. They don't like to pay their guys so he left.
He Pushed the chips in on Kawhai/Marc Gasol and finally got over the hump.
There was a leadership change above him in Toronto and at his pay scale he was never going past his contract.
DJ, our friend from up north fortold this and it proved true.
Lets not forget folks its the owners that set the agendas and sometimes they enhance or detract from what a GM/president can or cannot do.
Lucky bounce? Perhaps. All teams that win need that. Fact is they won it all.
