While I agree having him would have been better especially since Fultz seems to need to see Dr, Phil en shit, I don't believe the trades we've made to shape the roster the way it is now would have happened with Tatum there that's all. It all worked out in an unconventional way in the end.

Gotcha. It's most definitely an all in approach

Lowry not worried about trade rumors: Raptors will do what’s best for them

Point guard Kyle Lowry is not worried about the rumors on his future.
Lowry has been rumored being offered by the Toronto Raptors to the Memphis Grizzlies for Marc Gasol and Mike Conley.

Per ESPN, “I think they will make decisions for themselves, and they’ll do what’s best for them,” Lowry told ESPN after scoring 20 points to go with six assists and two steals in a 119-107 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday. “I don’t think there’s one thing I can say or do [to change that], you know what I mean?

“I think that’s just how they work, and they operate. They make moves, and they make moves for the best of the organization. If they do something that will be their feeling to whatever the organization thinks is best for them.
If we can get Marc Gasol and Mike Conley Jr. for Kyle Lowry I will take that deal for my Raptors.

Cuban's just settling grudges right now. He traded Jordan because of what happened a while back with the almost move from the Clippers. Traded Barnes for criticizing him a while back. He is trying to build the ultimate white hype team...

Dallas and their racist ass ownership

So he did get over that?

You didn’t get him, last off-season but finally got him only to trade he away to stick it to him

That makes no sense....he signed him and paid him millions just to trade him out of spite? These moves not him this is Donnie Nelson. Cuban ain’t no basketball mind.

That nigga had to have known lol. He was sitting on the bench in the 4th quarter lol...at that point he should’ve known something was up.

Cuban a bitch. He absolutely traded Barnes on some sucka shit. Props to Barnes for calling his honky ass out when he did.
Traded Barnes who had one year left on his deal for ZBo expiring contract. They can now afford to get a max player and will probably strike out like they do and have to settle for a 3rd tier player.

Terrible deal. They dumped a young asset for a 6 month rental . Should have kept Oubre, held tight and spent the rest of the season trying to trade Porter at all cost. Ariza aint gonna improve this teams playoff hopes.

I like Oubre.. Hes 22 and has improved every season despite inconsistent and limited minutes and playing on a shit team that doesnt develop talent. He has more upside than both Ariza and Otto. He will be a quality rotation guy soon.

Like i screamed on here 2 years ago, they should have traded Porter in his contract year or let him walk... The team lacks foresight. They should have let Otto walk and developed Kelly.
@Complex , see what i mean...

The thing is it doesn't matter to the player being traded if its management or another player trading you if you are the one being shipped out.

Bron is basically forcing the Lakers to gut the roster and 5 years worth of pics for a chance at maybe 1 ring.

I hear you but

I don't get the Bron forcing things.

So Magic and Rob are innocent in ALL this?

They didn't have to sign Bron.

And it was Magic who went at the coach (EVEN BEFORE Bron got there)

And its mad interesting how when Bron does "take over"?

Rings are won...but this execs don't talk no sh*t then?

Winning 20 games and missing the playoffs for 5 years straight would be better. :lol:

Bron doesnt run the Lakers by the way.

Who owns Klutch?

We talking about opt out loc here. Had DWade leave like 20 million on the table and bounce.

They been had this plan, just follow the contracts. KCP is making 30 million for 2 years as a backup. Of course he was the back channel.

The issue is the Pelicans are not trying to set this as a standard way to do business. If Klutch wasn't involved this deal would be done with Kuzma,BI, Hart and 1 first round pick
