Fans are so impatient. They have ADD or something. "let's trade away our core players for other teams older players with equal or lesser future potential!"

It's like they are more entertained by trades and moves than wins and team progression. Trade whores.

How old do you think Rajon Rondo is? He's one of the best point guards in the league and he's young. Avery Bradley and Jared Sullinger are both young up and coming players. The problem is Boston wouldn't do this deal.

Outside of OKC what other teams has this strategy worked with? LA had to trade their young players to get Chris Paul. Boston traded their young players to get KG. these are teams who went with the young strategy and failed and decided to trade the young pieces for a superstar.

The Spurs didnt trade away Manu or Parker when they developed. These trade threads have everything to do with impatience. Fans are bored and want a trade to spice things up. And most of the trades are not good. One trade on here basically switched the jerseys of the Kings and the Hornets. Why on God's green earth would I want to be the Kings?

Terrible work ethic. Why do you think he wasn't drafted until 21st when he was suppose to be top ten prior to his Soph yr at Ohio State. I don't think that trade is good by any means. Sorry bro. That trade doesn't work financially either.

I'm talking recent, I can name the Jordan bulls if we are discussing old teams. It's a different game these days.
