Have to think they are flipping Robert Williams right?

They’re keeping him, only planning to flip Brogdon.

Are you insane, 2029 picks from current contenders who can’t trade anything to build between now and then?

How has Boston pulled this off? Aren’t Jrue Brown Tatum Horforf and Porzingis all on 30+mil contracts? How tf does the money work?

Portland killed it with that deal.

They did, but a bit misleading to include Ayton as he was not acquired simply in the Lillard deal.

Half the roster is near or close to league minimum, but also willing to pay tax.

Ummm, how was he not acquired in the Lillard deal? Ayton was literally the centerpiece of that deal.

I said not acquired simply in the Lillard deal (as the tweet calls him part of the haul for Lillard). They neglect to state that Nurkic, Little and Johnson were given up for Ayton as well, not just Lillard.

Nurkic is a negative asset due to injuries and I believe the other two aren’t really worth much.

They basically got Ayton for salary relief / regular season depth.

From all reports, it was a deal that was going to be made with or without the Lillard deal. For some reason (I guess given the cost), Phoenix likes Nurkic and his passing ability. Johnson is certainly an asset and Little is a lottery ticket IMO. He has shown some signs of life, but not a sure thing.
