    We got it...

    If this city is good at one thing, it's beating a dead horse.

    One of their assets just became GOLD. You think we're not gonna come in here and gloat for a bit?

    Okafor did?

    Year 3 or 4 of slurping Hinkie is my point...

    The Kings swap this year and getting their '19 first rounder for exactly nothing....just became way more valuable with the Cousins trade. As annoying as you think it is, that Kings trade Hinkie made could turn out to be one of the best of this franchise's history.

    Ah, gotcha. Yeah, I get that.

    Regardless, looking forward to heading down there Friday. Hope Embiid plays...

    Welp, there goes my Sweet Lou hopes even though I figured he'd be traded.

    playing devil's advocate here, if your top player is battling injuries after having missed 2 seasons and your #1 pick from last year has a bad foot that might or might not be healing correctly why the rush to trade a guy who was the 3rd pick in the draft? I get the Okafor won't work with Embiid but is it wrong to suggest you might want to wait until the off season to see how healthy Embiid and Simmons truly are before dealing Okafor?

    Valid point but that's also why you don't just give him away to NO with a top 20 protected pick.

    No Embiid Friday either, it sounds. Those speculative tickets are turning into duds. Oh well. Night out with the fellas...

    Bye Ersan. More time for Dario. Don't fuck it up Colangelo.

    Essentially Colangelo got a first and two seconds for Jerami Grant.

    Wouldn't be surprised if all this Okafor talk was just to get peoples' eyes away from Noel.

    That one hurts a bit, but a way better deal than they would've gotten for Jah at this point.

    Noel for bogut

    I can see why they did it but I don't think it was a good move.

    I know pretty much everyone disagrees, but I think you gotta keep Okafor at this point. I think he stinks, but if you're basically getting nothing for him, let him play and be the main guy the rest of the season and see what happens. You can get pennies for him now or later. Might as well be later at this point.

    If they decided they weren't going to sign him then I'm fine with it. Pick is supposed to be unprotected next year.

    That's brutal. Fuck Silver for pushing the Colangelos on us.

    Yeah, I take back everything I said. I didn't realize 'till after lunch that the protected 1 is pretty much two 2's. Fucking awful. The bright future left by Hink is now eroding due to the dipshit with the big collar.

    The Hinkie was not with Colangelo on this day. Bad trade. I'd rather them make a bad trade with Okafur and overpay Nerlens this summer. Nerlens is more valuable and is a better fit than Jah. This is disappointing.
