Y'all a bunch of nerds being like "lol, their Championship EV in year 5 would drop by a few points, lol" when it's really like if you have the chance to put out a product of Westbrook and Buckets every night you do it LFG

It would take about a month for Butler and Russ to hate each other, which would be great.

When can New York trade all their new signings?

The Heat are realistically drawing dead to win a title over the course of Westbrook's contract if they trade for him.

Heat have 0 chip EV next 2 years as presently constructed and if they trade for Russ it’s 0 for the next 5 years. He’s a stone ****ing moron who peaked athletically 3 years ago

Wow people are actually giving stuff up to get Russ??? I thought it would be straight salary dump plus something to take that heinous contract. Glad the Knicks signed all those bad players already or else they wouldn't be able to resist

Dikembe Mutombo was the best player on that team

Wow that would be an incredible haul for OKC, those Pistons picks could be great

My guess is Russ will be way more receptive to Miami than Detroit which could kill the deal.

Fwiw, Simmons/Russ can't be swapped until around this time next year.

I think that is an interesting debate for the 2019-2020 season but after that, I doubt it is.

If you look at the teams you have to beat going forward it looks like most of them are going to have elite wing scorers (LeBron, Giannis, Kawhi, Durant) and Simmons is developing into an elite perimeter defender. He is an extremely easy guy to pick apart but keep in mind he is only 22!

Russ for J Murray is more interesting to me, but also that can't happen for another year either.

And another thing, why is no one pointing out that LAL probably didn't have as much leverage as it looked like given what LAC gave OKC for an older/inferior play in George?

LAC could've easily given that godfather offer for AD if Kawhi would commit. He's 28, LeBron is 35.

RHJ to the Raps, they now have some decent wing depth, although two of them can't shoot and be on the floor together. Hopefully OG can improve significantly (he had a lot of personal and injury issues last year) and they can compete in the East. It's not likely they contend for the conference unless OG, Norm, Siakam take a collective large step forward.

December 15th the Knicks can trade all their new signings.

All those beautiful 1+1's with team option (ELITE KNICKS STRATEGY!). Toss in RJ Barrett cuz he ****ing sucks anyway.

AND LET'S CALL IT A TRIPLE DOUBLE DAY!

The obvious play was to trade down with someone stupid (read: Hawks) and accumulate assets.
