@dpshow@SIChrisMannix Again with the draft night booing?π€¦ββοΈ Those boos werenβt anti-JB. They came from those gullible enough to think the Celtics could trade that pick to Chicago for Jimmy Butler. A KG trade sequel. βTumultuous tenure?β π€¦ββοΈ
An All-NBA player who finished sixth in MVP voting along with two picks is without question fair value for Giannis, especially compared to what the Heat gave up.
Adding Hugo, Baylor, AND more picks/swaps to the deal essentially takes away any flexibility for this team to continue having roster flexibility and a pipeline to funnel the core with young talent.
Whether people like it or not, this was the right call from Brad Stevens.
@DanLifshatz It was betterβ¦ Haslam was just scared of JB not resigning and wanted extra young players just in case JB wanted out to ease the pain if he did demand that trade. Canβt have it all !
I just donβt understand how anybody could be mad at Brad Stevens. Itβs not like he was offering JB for anybody else he was offering him for Giannis, possibly the best player when healthy.
