I don't think it's really a great deal for either. I get Houston is going for it, but I have zero confidence KD can complete a healthy season and playoffs.
Losing Green is no biggie because I think he's similar to Ace Bailey - empty stats.
Losing Brooks will actually hurt them imo. He's their best defender and I hate the guy but he does bring a certain attitude and swag.
I've made my philosophy well known on here - I never trade for guys in their mid 30s. Ever. I just don't think it pays off.
Houston didn't really give up a ton though so not that disastrous.

Thompson is their best defender. Brooks just tries to get into your head with some extra physicality but his defense isn't really that good.
