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.

No. Amen Thompson is their best defender. Followed by Tari Eason. Brooks is a solid player, but he’s not a player that you’re particularly going to miss when you’re replacing him with KD and have so many other talented defenders on the roster.
