Crazy. I wanted Haliburton bad.

Wasn’t it said that Griffin had a trade lined up if Haliburton would have fell to us anyway?

Griffs draft decisions in 2019 and 2020 were fricking horrible

The Spurs got Wemby. We got Lazy Fat. Lady Luck is a nasty bitch.

Who cares? We could/should have taken Tyrese Maxey when Halliburton was taken ahead of us but we didn’t because we suck at basketball.

Don’t kid yourself. We would’ve taken Kira regardless. Front office was shite.

2/3 of the NBA passed on Maxey. 13 passed on him after we did.

And we traded naw and hart for cj. Who would you rather now?

Dyson for Murray.

Signed Graham.

There’s a million shite moves this front office made.

You make both of those trades 10 times out of 10. Just because we’re a cursed franchise and nothing works out for us doesn’t mean the trade was dumb.

I understand the CJ trade but I was never really comfortable with the Dyson trade. I was able to be talked in to it but I really didn’t love it. I was hoping it was Ingram instead of Dyson.

Lord. We traded Josh Hart and NAW for CJ? Even Bowers was not that stupid.

I wanted Haliburton bad. Someone can bump that draft thread, I thought Griff shoulda moved up once he started dropping.

Then Griffs idiotic arse would have traded him off anyway. Theres a reason he was fired, couldn’t see the talent in him or Garland, and could have had both.
