I know it will never happen but Booker has been on my radar for us for many years.  I’ve always loved his game. 

I doubt it happens but we know Booker has some relationship with the Devos family, if he ever demanded a trade in the near future we might actually be on his list of preferred destinations.

I like the outside the box idea Hootie.  Sheppard looked really good in Summer League.  Like a modern Mark Price lol

is love it, but it’s even more unrealistic than my Trae Young or Zion trade proposal. They love Jabari and he’s a center piece. They also like Sheppard

I feel like there’s a ton of legs to the KD back to Golden State rumor. At this point we’re pretty much the only team that I haven’t heard anything about. Par for the course. Used to think it was because Weltman operated in secret so well, now I’m convinced that he just doesn’t do anything. He maxed out with the trade deadline 4 years ago. Every other team with a young stud or 2 in their roster prioritizes getting them help. Suns got KD for Book, Wolves get Rudy for Ant, Spurs just got Fox for Wemby. We’re in a situation where since their respective returns from injury, Paolo and Franz’ usage rates are both off the charts. It’s no wonder they both got hurt the first time and would be no surprise when they get hurt again.

KD ruled out for tonight. They’re totally shopping him.

Speaking of, pay close attention to the injury report tonight, as of now only Suggs is on it. Anybody else randomly goes out, they’re more than likely at least being discussed. There’s no benefit in showcasing anyone tonight

Um how much more draft compensation can they absorb? They gonna make a new rule just for OKC.

What’s a viable trade to get Durant here?

They give us Durant.  We give them the 12 players who aren’t Banchero, Wagner, or Suggs.  Maybe we make a special exception to also keep McClung.  They keep who they want, waive the rest.  We bring up our 10 best G-league players.  Simple!

I was thinking the same thing.

Yeah that team would win a G League title and have a first round exit in the NBA

To elaborate that's one player past his peak, 2 players who have not reached their peak and one player i'm pretty sure i know what his peak is, Franz. I'm not saying Franz has peaked he is 2 or 3 years from his prime. I just think we can truly see what he is going to be.  Paolo should be a super star and Suggs an all-nba defensive 3 and d guy but they are much more up in the air i think.

KD has zero interest in a Golden State reunion

[CTMagicUK 1,614]

I'd be interested in buying low on Tre Jones. He's not a great shooter but he's a better natural PG than anyone on this roster.

And, Durant to GS is now pretty much dead. No surprise, Golden State is honestly in huge trouble for the future. They’d be wise to sell Steph for a kings ransom, but they won’t do it.
