Yeah, but he's not wrong.
You get a trade! And you get a trade! And you get a trade!
Butler traded to the Warriors.
Trading season is not disappointing.
De’Aaron Fox in his first game for Spurs..24pts 13 assists 5 rebounds. Did us a favor and beat the Hawks.

FROM SHAMS:The New Orleans Pelicans are trading center Daniel Theis and draft compensation to the Oklahoma City Thunder, sources tell ESPN.
If OKC doesnt win the title they figure they will win it by default when they own every draft pick left in the NBA and thus have all the players

This is bad move for Milwaukee. They having trouble defending wings and they bring in Kuzma? I know Khris had declined, but he'd still be a better defender than Kuz even if he had an amputated leg. Trade screams desperation. Nevermind Saw Kuz's contract declines and this gets them under the second apron. Makes more sense. But man, Kuzma has been bad.
Straight up downgrades for cost cutting is the theme of trade season

Not a terrible cost but why do the Kings need Jonas? They got a weird team.

Is this an indication of the return the Wolves would get in a Randle trade ?

LOL,, Draft and stash!!!!!
Ingram will get extended I suppose. Its an easy trade for the Raptors who relive 5 games out of play in. If Quick can get it together they might finish strong. Ingram can play the 2, take Dicks role? The Tank ended two weeks ago. RJ gets a Blue Devill to hang with.

I'm not sure how that lineup meshes. I think they may have to use RJ as a 6th man. As we saw in the Knicks game, the raptors really need a first class scorer. Ingram has flaws, but the one thing he can do is score.
Why did Charlotte trade Nick Richards to open up space for Mark Williams and then trade Mark Williams?
I assume RJ plays 4 on offense and on D you play Ingram or Barnes at 4. Its too much duplication. Toronto clearly upgrades on talent though. So they now can probably make the play in and maybe even thr first round if they try hard. Its not a bad team.
Olynyk was playing well for them. Skilled passing and shooting big man. Didnt go to a contender.
