With this and the Suns moves....

May be a good time to go all in on a rebuild.
If there’s anything watching the NBA has taught me, it’s that you can count on Terry Stott somehow coaching the Blazers so poorly that Dame will have to carry this team to the eighth seed on his own.

This is a great get for the Blazers, exactly what they needed. If Trent and Simons continue to improve and they can pick up a useful vet for the minimum, they are going to be a solid team next season.

For a while during peak-Process, it seemed like teams started to almost overvalue their draft picks but now it feels like trends have overcorrected and franchises are starting to just throw picks around like paper currency in the Great Depression

When a team like the Raptors wins a title and the following year a team like the Heat make the finals things are likely to go bonkers. Teams believe there is a void that can be filled. It will be interesting now that the Bucks have stacked a little more and if Harden joins Kyrie and KD in a potential fantasy ball trio for the ages with almost no intangibles to speak of.
