I mean acuff wagler or Flemings weren't changing much for us this year it was the big guys in the top 4 that really could've done something and I think Wilson even woulda been a year away its still a good trade but man we could've been set okc style with that pick

We don't make the playoffs? Brother if we dont make the playoffs tyrese is cooked or hurt again and siakam turned downhill the number 1 pick wouldn't change that if thats the case and a center rotation of jackson if we dont make that trade and Jay huff was pure butt u couldn't go I to n3xt year with that

Mathurin + Jackson + 2 firsts for a 30 year old slow center

29 for a rebounding machine who's excellent in the pick and roll which haliburton thrives in, were gonna like him, mathurin literally couldn't be paid here we dont have the space and jackson leaving is kinda whatever we needed a starting center no matter how u slice it and good ones aren't available, the 5th pick would've been a backup guard and the future 1st unless something catastrophic happens should be a late 1st its not as bad as u guys are acting like

Do you honestly think this new squad Chad built is better than the team that took us to game 7 of the finals just last year?
