It's an awful trade that really highlights a team's ineptitude. I don't want to hear mid markets complaining about not being able to compete or keep their Stars when they do shit like this.

Wolves fan here, been a ticket holder many years of varying types of packages.

Ineptitude was a previous fault (KAHN!!!!...drafting Flynn over Curry, Wes Johnson over Cousins etc...)...now the recent trades and drafts have resulted in a core of Rubio, Wiggins, Shabazz, Dieng, Lavine + next years draft pick + with current vets Pek and Kevin Martin.
The biggest complaint about the Love trade was actually getting Thad instead of Miami's first round pick, which looked to be mid-teens with them falling recently. With Dragic to Miami and then Dwyane getting healthy, that pick gets "worse" as in a higher number. Getting KG is definitely more sentimental, but also gets out of Thad's contract since he probably would have opted into his decent sized contract instead of trying FA. Not the best trade ever made, but not awful. Since Thad isn't a pure PF, he didn't fit well with having Bazz/Wiggins being able to play the 3.
 
Granger, hamilton, cole, and williams and a couple of picks for the Zoran Goran according to lebatard. that means we also keep mcroberts and the skeleton of birdman. niceeeeee
 
So is Phoenix basically conceeding the eighth seed to OKC? Because that's what it looks like... Good pick up for Miami. I'll tell you what, they may be able to hold their own against the rest of the conference now.

Philly just traded KJ McDaniels (why???) to Houston for Houston's backup PG Isaiah Canaan and a 2nd rounder... Philly still on that tank mode!

e: Damn beaten... KJ is going to be a monster off the bench and eventually take Ariza's spot

wait wait, the Sixers just got Phoenix's pick from the Lakers as part of dealing MCW. Sixers win again in the end LOL

feels like Perk keeps getting traded to locations that are further remote than his previous team. Poor perk.

Riley gave them our garbage and they took it! Riley a god.

Miami got Dragic? I guess we're not waiting for 2016 then.

Enter the Dragon! We already won, brehs! PEACE.

man, if everyone is healthy going into the playoffs and we go against the cavs, its gonna be a good time for all
