Would you say losing Kittles or not sending in offers on day 2 was more detrimental to the franchise?

What makes you want to move KD and Westbrook? Did the real life breakup show you there's no hope?

Do our logos make you mad? Solo called us immature for having logos that throw shade at other GMs.

I finally spend $700 to get him and $300 to clear space and he walks. That being said I don't regret the acquisition. He got me to the finals. Our most successful season yet

I'm really salty with the real life KD and the Chet Walker not-resigning thing scares me a lot. Pkus I just am not currently convinced I'm a title contender and I'm open to mixing things up for the good of the franchise.

Solo called us immature for having logos that throw shade at other GMs. At first it was annoying but since I was in the finals last year and I know none of you can really say shit to me anymore, it really doesn't bother me much. You guys should really change that though, because if I suck...what does that say about y'all

What do you anticipate Smits' stats will look like this season? Unsure. I'm broke as a joke, so until I can camp him the progression will be minimal. Still, I think he can be a guy who is A- inside (jumping camp left) A+ defense (A already, Post D, Blocking, stealing, perm D camps left) A rebounding (maybe...O reb and jumping left and already A-) Last year he put up about 14/9.5 in only 28 mpg. I think if I were to camp his O reb and jumping I could get that up a lot with a minutes increase, maybe as high as 11.5-12 If I were to camp his post D and blocking I think I could get him up to 2.5ish BPG, (99 drive D helps too) If I were to do his jumping/jumpshot I think I could get him on the verge of 18-20 PPG if I were to make him an option. So we'll see. Its hard to project bc of camps, but I think 16/10/2 and 45% fg is reasonable with a 7 mpg increase from last season. I still really like Smits. Being 7'4" is tight too

Do you really think it's smart to trade a top SF in the league? And does the Magic trade linger in the back of your head and make you think twice about moving KD ?

Factoring age, who are your top ten iba players Including age? I'll go quickly so don't hold this against me, off the top of my head 1. Wilt 2. Russell 3. West 4. Oscar 5. Magic 6. Starbury That top 6 I feel pretty good about 7. Garnett 8. Chet 9. Durant 10. Westbrook I actually think KD and Russ might round out the top 10 players value wise honorable mentions to guys like JONeal Richmond Bradley Smart Wiggins Bellamy Alvan Pau Ray Ray Rider/Harris/Gordon Idk I'm pribably missing some people but like I said this is quickly off the top of my head, no disrespect if I forgot your star!

Do you really think it's smart to trade a top SF in the league? And does the Magic trade linger in the back of your head and make you think twice about moving KD ? Hell no...but that doesn't mean I won't do it. IMO SF is the position; of every position, where you can find the most guys to play there who aren't actually SFs. So as far as listed SFs go KD is super elite, easily top 3, arguably the best...but I think bc of what I said SF is a relatively easy position to replace one way or another...so I could handle a slight downgrade if it helped me at other positions I prioritize more Do I wish I had Magic? Of course. Do I regret the trade? Clearly not. When I sold Magic I had literally 0 cash to camp/trade....Magic was expiring which was worrying.....I was locked into some rough contracts in the form of Mo Lucas and Robert Parish, and I was fresh off of 2 consecutive first round exits as a 1 seed. Its hard to describe and rationalize I guess. But I didn't see an opportunity to get better given the assets I had (Magic being unmovable) and I seriously lacked depth and a true starting 5 (I was starting Bob Gross at SG with LLE/min deals as my backup guards and wings. Its easy to rash on but if you got handed the best player in the league in your first full season, you might fuck up building around him too. And that's honestly what happened. In retrospect, I could have road it out with Magic and tried to tank / retool like JB has done, but JB has also offered me Magic for KD and Russ...and I think that alone when considering the long term mindset I out in place should show I wasn't completelt misguided in that trade. While my guys are on the block, I still am fresh off a finals appearance wirh my 3 best players being rookie contract guys, and I still very much like the outlook of my future. JB is in really good shape now too...but still I like where I'm at and that trade and the results of the trade really have no impact on my situation now. Completely different scenarios and logic being used to conduct trades. I'm not fonna reread this so hopefully I didn't ramble too much

Would you consider a deal that was KD for Magic straight up?
