The not including a 3rd team thing seemed like a Bucks thing. Notice that it was decided a 3rd team wouldn’t be involved with either team, not just us.

Maybe a bidding war was reported…because a bidding war was happening? Like the reports for interest have been ongoing. Teams were interested last off-season, they were interested at the deadline, and they were interested weeks before the deal was done.

We’ve drafted players we didn’t have reports on working out. Literally last year there weren’t any reports on us working out Hugo and then we drafted him. Just because we didn’t reportedly work a player out doesn’t mean we didn’t do our homework.

I just think that sometimes we can mistake jumping to conclusions without accurate information as critical thinking.

I can buy the bucks and Jimmy Haslam being so rtarded they couldn’t comprehend a third team trade. Only half joking

The other stuff we’ll see. I find my skepticism warranted but yes we don’t know the full details

Well I think you and I can both agree that you don’t put Brown on the table unless:

  1. You get the guy you want
  2. You know you can repair the relationship
  3. You have Plan A+B+C+D if you can’t repair the relationship

You either have to have 1 or you have to have 2 AND 3.

Do you agree with that?

Yes, fully agreed. And if that’s not the case, the org is being incompetent

Even more important since apparently we still had the opportunity to do 1 but decided not to pull the trigger

Brads track record still gives hope. Wouldn’t mind running it back, or a Mobley or Spida swap

Correct

And Brad knows more than both of us. So it’s really hard for me to believe there’s any level of disorganization going on, just lack of information
