This is more of a ripoff than Gasol to the Lakers because Memphis got Marc back and he's been fantastic for them (although nobody predicted that).

Jeez. And I thought Toronto robbed Orlando, that was mere child's play.

I understood Orlando's move. They clearly don't have a loving long term plan, but I get the move now.

This is an awful deal for Sacramento.

Yeah at least Orlando can say they're blowing it up and they're saving money. I don't know what the gently caress the plan is in Sac-town. They'd better hope Buddy Hield starts shooting like his surname is Curry, or that they get lucky in the draft. Otherwise they're hosed.

The assholes who are for this need to realize that trading Cousins isn't the issue, it's trading him for a medicore at best return that is a problem. Surely Vlade could have made an offer to somebody else. Jesus.

The Pels'll probably still still miss the playoffs but god help the West if they get a decent backcourt in the next little while. It doesn't even need a superstar, just dudes who can knock down triples with regularity. Holiday's already an adequate shooter, even adding somebody like JJ Reddick makes them scary offensively.

I find it incredible that they look at Buddy Hield who is shooting 39% from FG and 36.5 from 3PT and don't see immediate red flags. Dude's a poor man's JR Smith.

When that Kings pick the Sixers own in 2019 is the 1st overall pick, what cool Kevin Love-sque player are they going to trade it for?

Probably Kevin Love.

With Nash you also had to keep in mind that he had a weird back problem (I think he was born with it) that limited his ability to defend and limited his minutes. I'm a huge fan of Steve and think he's a genuinely good guy. But Curry's a better player, full stop. poo poo, Steve would probably agree.
