This whole discussion of “buying futures back” all materialized from the once ridiculed James Harden trade in 2021 ironically enough. It’s crazy how Stone set the precedent of acquiring team’s FUTURES (in terms of length of time owning draft capital) in exchange for star players

[@charlescomeauxjr9037]

Players come into the NBA young. Their body has to develop strength. A 3pt threat can come in and contribute while getting stronger.

Need an elite shooter...this teams big weakness.

[@lanardm9836]

not drafting Klingin puts trust in Steve Adams. I would trade those suns picks for Bol Bol & well be ready for a good playoff run!

Who the fuck is Klingin? 😂😂😂 man just stop talking basketball! Lol

[@davidstansbury9309]

Bol Bol sucks, that's a stupid idea.

[@kreal-mu6sq]

Who are you taking minutes away from to get him on the court...

[@mattking6068]

Aaron holiday

[@kreal-mu6sq]

@@mattking6068 I get it, but Holiday shot almost 45% on FG(best in the back court) and tied Fred for team best 38.7 from 3. Don't know if he's giving us that right away

[@281htown]

​@mattking6068 this is basically Aaron Holiday's replacement because the Rockets are not bringing him back

[@iCheckMyPulse]

@@kreal-mu6sqi mean if reed isnt a 39% 3pt shooter he's a bust just to be honest, but i think it will be very easy for reed to beat Holiday's production here

[@lanardm9836]

@@iCheckMyPulse idk his shot is consistent there’s no mechanics that need to change unlike other special positions..
