Personally I think y'all are overvaluing KD.

To think this all started with Draymond calling KD a b*tch

To spite Kyrie (not the Lakers) which is totally understandable from their perspective.
But don’t tell me the Mavs package was better than the others. Especially because Woj reported they were making a “win now” trade with Kyrie only to then turn around and trade KD like 24 hours later. That’s hilarious.

Suns do not want that matchup if Zion is healthy, I don't think.

Last Nets FRP for two years. I’d rather just rebuild than be a lottery team with KD this year and moving him in the offseason. I also think that maybe with more time they might have had time to put together a better plan.
My whole thing about that tweet is not knowing exactly what went on behind the scenes. KD very well could have asked out after Myrie was moved hence why things happened the way they did/in that order. They also must have valued the extra years on Dinwiddie and DFS’ salary than the $47MM expiring. Instead of cap space it gives them future pieces to attach in trades.

WASHED KING
is actually right for once (outside his Derek Carr takes)The Nets did trade Kyrie to the Mavs so he wouldn't end on the Lakers. Tsai got a decent haul and a F U to Kyrie wrapped in one. Masterclass
And I don't think we overvalue KD's talent, but I do think we overvalue his trade value. We see the Rudy Gobert trade as the measuring stick for trades for stars, but it's just as much as an outlier as the $240M guaranteed contract to Nasty Boy Watson. The KD haul was honest a decent haul, given his age, injury history, and most importantly, what was available. It's impossible to get a star for star trade in this era.

Booker coming off injury. History of hammys. KD coming off injury. Steph coming off injury. Clippers never healthy. AD never healthy.
Pelicans not in any different situation than anyone else in the west aside from denver and they are more talented than denver.
We still here. Still the favorites.

ESPN is running NBA Today from 1PM - 4PM EST then an NBA Today Trade Deadline Special from 4PM - 6PM EST on ESPN. 5 hours of trade predominately trade deadline talk and analysis is insane

He was ready and checked out in the summer, doubted those feelings magically disappeared this season.

My Kangz definitely took a hit last night with teams getting better but y’all about to see how great De’Aaron fox really is. He’s about to level all the way up.

You think Brooklyn would’ve been a lotto team WITH KD?
Russ’ expiring contract would’ve done nothing for them besides tax relief. They weren’t going to have cap space to do anything serious with.
